  Wild, wild west.

• 0:02Speaker 01

  I was told, I was told the birds hatched while I was gone and I, I don't see any sign of it.

• 0:08Matt McCusker?

  Where, yeah, you'd see the eggshells at least you would think, but.

• 0:12Speaker 01

  The papa comes in every so often, feeds him, then flies out.

• 0:15Matt McCusker?

  Think that's something mama bird?

• 0:17Speaker 01

  Or the mom. They have stayed together, which I'm very happy.

• 0:21Matt McCusker?

  That's awesome.

• 0:21Speaker 01

  It's not just the mom, there's, there's mom and dad.

• 0:23Matt McCusker?

  Really?

• 0:24Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's very exciting. Yes.

• 0:26Matt McCusker?

  How, how, I guess the one, the dad bird's bigger, I guess, stronger, like uses a reason or whatever. How do you tell? How do you tell?

• 0:33Speaker 01

  Yeah, he and I smoke. He meets me back outside and he goes, pour me a beer, brother, my fucking.

• 0:39Matt McCusker?

  Just a thimble.

• 0:40Speaker 01

  My Ren's being a real bitch.

• 0:44Speaker 01

  But yeah, that's very exciting stuff. And I got the bird, birdhouse with a camera on it that will never be installed. You'll see that sitting on that island.

• 0:51Matt McCusker?

  No.

• 0:52Speaker 01

  The remainder of my time in this house.

• 0:55Matt McCusker?

  Where do you, where do you got to mount that? Is that going to be on the fence?

• 0:57Speaker 01

  I don't know. I'm up, there's that tree over there.

• 0:59Matt McCusker?

  Had to be nice.

• 0:59Speaker 01

  I get it out there.

• 1:00Matt McCusker?

  Hey, you don't, you don't gotta tell me twice to clam that tree. I'll clamber up that thing.

• 1:03Speaker 01

  I would, I would love.

• 1:04Matt McCusker?

  I love clambering a tree.

• 1:06Speaker 01

  I know. Fucking tree broke.

• 1:08Matt McCusker?

  What the hell was that about?

• 1:09Speaker 01

  Smashed my car.

• 1:09Matt McCusker?

  So we thought that was an AI picture La Mer sent.

• 1:12Speaker 01

  Fucking sucked.

• 1:13Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that's bullshit. How the hell did it fall?

• 1:15Speaker 01

  Especially the way La Mer, you know what it is? It's all that construction on the road and it's a dead tree and finally it just fucking.

• 1:21Matt McCusker?

  Oh. Whoa, okay.

• 1:24Speaker 01

  Yeah. I mean, they were shaking this fucking house. I thought it was gonna crack.

• 1:28Speaker 00

  There is a crack running through the floor in that bathroom. Do you know about this?

• 1:31Speaker 01

  It's no.

• 1:31Speaker 00

  The floor is splitting.

• 1:32Matt McCusker?

  Sidewalks cracked, sidewalks cracked out there. Those vibrations.

• 1:36Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:36Matt McCusker?

  Fuck shit up really badly.

• 1:38Speaker 01

  Insane with that.

• 1:39Matt McCusker?

  No, that's like a whole part of civil engineering where you have to like, the, the amount of vibration coming can like break windows and shit. It's pretty nuts.

• 1:47Speaker 01

  Well, it split a gigantic tree that then destroyed my car.

• 1:51Matt McCusker?

  And it's, well, it's a weird thing to like, hold people accountable for it, but you know, your vibration, it's hard to prove.

• 1:56Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:57Matt McCusker?

  But yeah, so they were doing stuff, tree fell. Did it just like crack in half or did it?

• 2:01Speaker 01

  Yeah, like split and La Mer, you were very, it was nice. It was a good video you sent because it was kind of a reveal. You started with the tree and I was like, oh, a tree broke. That's fucking crazy. Then goes, sorry about your car. I was like, oh, fuck.

• 2:17Speaker 00

  How are the birds?

• 2:19Speaker 01

  I was actually concerned about the birds.

• 2:22Matt McCusker?

  Were you worried about La Mer's friends kind of like using the fallen tree to like climb in up on the roof and into the house?

• 2:27Speaker 01

  I mean, I, he had a friend here the whole time.

• 2:31Matt McCusker?

  What?

• 2:31Speaker 01

  Dorian was here.

• 2:33Matt McCusker?

  Oh, Deeds, I forgot.

• 2:34Speaker 01

  Entire week I was gone, Dorian.

• 2:35Speaker 00

  He was a nice fella. Have to spend some time together.

• 2:37Speaker 01

  But I'll tell you what, when you get off the road and you just wanna fucking be alone in your house, you got La Mer and Dorian walking around.

• 2:43Speaker 00

  Hey, thanks for letting me come and stay as well.

• 2:45Speaker 01

  You're all right. You're not as big of a, as Dorian and La Mer together.

• 2:51Speaker 00

  He kept offering to make ribs for everybody and it never happened. He never gave me any ribs.

• 2:55Speaker 01

  I think he did make ribs, cuz La Mer came home looking for him. And then was kind of accusatory, acting like, I ate the ribs.

• 3:01Matt McCusker?

  Who ate the ribs? You didn't eat them. You didn't eat them.

• 3:03Speaker 01

  Dorian ate them.

• 3:04Matt McCusker?

  Dorian made ribs? He did? He was true to his word, he made ribs. He just ate them himself.

• 3:09Speaker 01

  That's what I said. I was like, damn, that's crazy if Dorian just took your food. And he was like, well, he made them. And he was like, oh. Poor in part.

• 3:23Speaker 01

  But he ate them. You love inviting guys over and grilling.

• 3:25Speaker 03

  That's good stuff.

• 3:27Speaker 01

  Just you and a guy.

• 3:29Speaker 03

  That's good stuff, dude. That's good clean fun.

• 3:32Speaker 01

  I know. It is if you do it like with, I don't know. You keep bringing different guys into my house and grilling with them and then leaving.

• 3:40Speaker 00

  You gotta be a monogamous griller. You can't have this complicated grill technique.

• 3:44Speaker 01

  Also, it's always just one guy at a time. It's never, it's never a few fellas. It's always just here, sneak into the garage.

• 3:51Matt McCusker?

  A little grill and chill.

• 3:52Speaker 01

  I got some, some ribs.

• 3:56Speaker 01

  And then we can watch cartoons.

• 3:59Speaker 01

  Let's get fucking barbecue sauce all over the couch. Scare my birds. You scare those fucking wrens. I'm gonna fuck you up, man. Don't talk to them.

• 4:10Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, what is the smoking radius? Oh, that just, god damn, it just went back, damn.

• 4:13Speaker 01

  It's nice to see what's going on, bro.

• 4:15Matt McCusker?

  Caught out of the corner of my eye. I'm like, I have like cat visions.

• 4:19Speaker 01

  Think about playing Xbox and go.

• 4:22Speaker 01

  Fuck yeah.

• 4:23Matt McCusker?

  Oh shit.

• 4:23Speaker 01

  The rans are back.

• 4:24Matt McCusker?

  They're back. They're actually, that thing's bustling right now.

• 4:27Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 4:27Matt McCusker?

  So the birds flew, but I don't know how birds work. Is that like, do they still chill and headquarter up in there for a while? Obviously, yeah.

• 4:33Speaker 01

  They're pretty active all day.

• 4:35Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, they're fucking rocking it.

• 4:36Speaker 01

  I went, I bought them some bird food off of Amazon. I googled, I googled what rans eat. I just put a little cup next to the nest.

• 4:43Speaker 00

  They just eat the Bud Light?

• 4:44Speaker 01

  I don't know if they're taking it. I think either the mayor knocked it over or a bunch of them ate it.

• 4:48Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, they're probably munching that.

• 4:50Speaker 01

  I want them to be hardy. I want them.

• 4:52Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, you gotta, they gotta have their skills.

• 4:54Speaker 00

  I'm worried that the cardboard's not stable enough long-term. You gotta put, you gotta, you gotta mattress that.

• 4:58Speaker 01

  That thing's stable.

• 5:01Speaker 00

  I can't believe you also had Bud Light.

• 5:02Speaker 01

  And there's Bud Lights in there.

• 5:04Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, you got Bud Lights.

• 5:05Speaker 01

  Structure.

• 5:05Matt McCusker?

  Columns.

• 5:06Speaker 01

  There's columns in there.

• 5:08Speaker 00

  That adds to the, it's aged.

• 5:11Matt McCusker?

  That'd be funny if you eventually betray them by like removing their supports.

• 5:14Speaker 01

  Eventually I'll go, hold on, I'm out of beers.

• 5:19Matt McCusker?

  You're like the evil developer looking at the town. I could put those to good use.

• 5:25Speaker 01

  Yeah, they do have natural resources that, that might have to give them a democracy.

• 5:34Speaker 01

  Tommy almost destroyed the structure.

• 5:36Matt McCusker?

  I know.

• 5:36Speaker 01

  It was great.

• 5:37Matt McCusker?

  I know.

• 5:38Speaker 01

  Reached in, two of them flew out.

• 5:40Matt McCusker?

  You got bats. You got fucking bats in you. I'm surprised he didn't get hurt. He's been injury prone lately.

• 5:47Speaker 01

  He's hurt a lot.

• 5:48Matt McCusker?

  He's been on toddler time lately. Every time I see him, he's got.

• 5:52Speaker 01

  It's a new brewski tumble.

• 5:53Matt McCusker?

  He's got a new boo boo every time I see him.

• 5:56Speaker 01

  He's gotta hide them from his lady. I tell you, when he said what's up to Nate, he rolled his ankle out front. Do you remember that? Yeah, this is the night after he was over here and ripped his shins on the fucking pool. And they were like really fucked up. And his fiance gets mad at him for it, obviously, because it's brewski doubles. So then he comes in limping. I'm like, why the fuck are you limping? And he was like,

• 6:22Speaker 01

  it's because my shins. I was like, no, it's not. It's not because of your shins.

• 6:27Speaker 01

  And he was like, I just rolled my ankle out front.

• 6:29Matt McCusker?

  It was a bad one too. He touched the earth like. He went down.

• 6:34Speaker 01

  He said, mama mia.

• 6:35Matt McCusker?

  He lived right over to the car right away. Here.

• 6:38Speaker 01

  He lost his Mario mushroom, did he?

• 6:41Speaker 00

  Now he's small. He's got to watch out because he's, he's getting to the age where that's a fall that puts you, sets you down for a long time.

• 6:48Matt McCusker?

  No.

• 6:50Speaker 00

  Jesus, dude. You said Tommy, I watched a video of Tommy from two years ago. He's aged fifteen, twenty years.

• 6:56Speaker 01

  Yeah, you'll see.

• 6:57Speaker 00

  All right.

• 6:57Speaker 01

  It happens to all of us.

• 6:58Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 6:59Speaker 00

  It's happened to me. I've got gray.

• 7:00Speaker 01

  Yeah, take a look.

• 7:01Speaker 00

  No, that's why my hair is, if I cut my hair now, everyone can see that.

• 7:04Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 7:04Speaker 01

  The horror.

• 7:04Matt McCusker?

  Once you hit forty, that's, it's just, you are declining.

• 7:08Speaker 01

  It's gonna get way worse for me.

• 7:09Matt McCusker?

  Oh, dude, it's.

• 7:11Speaker 01

  This episode is brought to you by Quince.

• 7:13Matt McCusker?

  Nice.

• 7:14Speaker 01

  What do you know about Quince?

• 7:15Matt McCusker?

  I love Quince. I'll be, I'll be honest. They sent me the stuff and I, they're boxers. They use like cotton, like regular materials, not a lot of polyesters, natural fibers. I'm a, I'm a big fan.

• 7:26Speaker 01

  Well, not everyone wants to spend forever on the perfect look. Quince gets that. It's why they make staple pieces for your wardrobe that go with pretty much anything, man. They're, uh, they're really easy to style and they feel great to wear because they're also made with premium materials, including, like you said, organic cotton, merino wool. There's even a hundred percent Mongolian cashmere sweaters, starting at just sixty dollars. That's, I mean, talk about a deal.

• 7:51Matt McCusker?

  It's pretty crazy.

• 7:52Speaker 01

  That's a bargain.

I played basketball again the other day. I still hurt. I had to do stand up last night. I was on stage like, like grimacing. My whole back was in pain. I was like, yeah, anyway, ah, shit.

• 8:28Speaker 00

  No, I don't believe, I think you're probably working the back out. I remember seeing the back last summer before I left.

• 8:33Matt McCusker?

  Dude, I'm still riding high off that.

• 8:34Speaker 00

  Spooky place.

• 8:35Speaker 01

  You admire.

• 8:36Speaker 00

  We were at the pool. I do. I saw him swimming.

• 8:37Speaker 01

  He admires man's physique and comments.

• 8:39Matt McCusker?

  He told me I have a huge back.

• 8:41Speaker 00

  If your physique is as natural as you say it is, it's the most impressive transformation I've ever heard.

• 8:45Matt McCusker?

  I appreciate that. I was, I was in the mirror. I was in the mirror literally two days ago and Brittany's like, what are you doing? I was like, James said I had a big back last summer. I'm making sure it's still big. I'm still riding high off that compliment.

• 8:56Speaker 01

  That's a nice compliment.

• 8:57Matt McCusker?

  Dude, it's huge. I, I'd, I'd never seen my back. I had no idea.

• 9:00Speaker 01

  It's you. You do have a nice back.

• 9:01Matt McCusker?

  Fuck, man. Thank you, guys. I'm gonna be riding high. I'm gonna be riding crazy off this, dude.

• 9:06Speaker 01

  I mean.

• 9:07Speaker 00

  Guy's with strong backs. Secret.

• 9:08Speaker 01

  Jacked.

• 9:09Speaker 00

  Chris O'Connor's shoulders. It's like a secret.

• 9:11Matt McCusker?

  I mean, I've been working hard.

• 9:12Speaker 00

  He's walking around.

• 9:12Speaker 01

  O'Connor's jacked.

• 9:13Speaker 00

  And then all of a sudden, you go, good God, what's going on there?

• 9:15Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I'm excited for, you know, I'm still working hard. I'm trying to cut a little bit, so I'm excited for a reveal pretty soon.

• 9:20Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah. Once the, once the pool warms up and also when the Rens leave, then we can have a pool party. But no one's, no one's allowed over here until the Rens leave.

• 9:29Matt McCusker?

  I would be like a four year old with cool shoes. I'm gonna take my shirt off and be like.

• 9:34Speaker 01

  Is anybody gonna say anything?

• 9:39Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, B-ball was nice, dude. I was.

• 9:41Speaker 01

  I'm gonna be the opposite, dude. Pop the top and sprint to the water. Float with just my head above the water for the entire time.

• 9:50Speaker 01

  Get that gator float.

• 9:53Matt McCusker?

  Slide, right?

• 9:55Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I mean, I, uh, it's come to my attention. I'm a little aggressive for the, the basketball course. I, I talk shit the entire time.

• 10:02Speaker 01

  Yeah, you are a cocksucker out there.

• 10:05Matt McCusker?

  Anytime someone shoot, I'm like, oh shit, oh God, watch out, hold on. Anytime I touch the ball, I'm like, give me that fuck, give me that ball.

• 10:11Speaker 01

  It's just honks out there with you?

• 10:12Matt McCusker?

  Nah, we, we not, we had a, a lot of honks.

• 10:15Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 10:15Matt McCusker?

  Pretty good, pretty good. Uh, you know, my neighborhood, it's the racial distribution's like, almost like engineered.

• 10:19Speaker 01

  Yeah, it is a little. The first time I went over to your house for a party, I was a little like, something weird's going on. It was just interracial couples.

• 10:27Speaker 00

  Yeah, it does look, it's mu, it's, it's a bit of a college brochure of it.

• 10:31Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, it is. Dude, we had, I felt bad. An Indian guy on my team for the last game and then he was guarding, an Indian guy was guarding him.

• 10:37Speaker 01

  Oh, nice.

• 10:37Matt McCusker?

  I got the ball and just pass it to the wrong guy and I was like, damn shit. Dude on my team looked at me and started laughing like, nah, I get it, bro. That's fair. That's fair. It was two curly haired Indians, same fucking haircut. I was like, nah, dude, I'm sorry.

• 10:51Speaker 01

  I mean, I've never seen an Indian guy on a basketball court, ever.

• 10:54Matt McCusker?

  They were hooping. They were nice.

• 10:56Speaker 01

  Were they hooping?

• 10:56Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, the one, yeah, that one guy had a shot, but they had, yeah, it's true. When you see him, it's usually not a, uh, it's like prison. They play with the Chinese guys. You put them over there. They're the others on the basketball.

• 11:06Speaker 00

  It's the div three in the prison yard.

• 11:08Matt McCusker?

  It's like, you guys go do your thing over there, like hop frog, whatever you guys are up to.

• 11:12Speaker 01

  I don't know. I'm trying to.

• 11:12Speaker 00

  Is there an Indian athlete outside of cricket? Is there anyone who's passed over to like, sometimes there'll be an Asian footy player in Australia.

• 11:21Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 11:22Speaker 00

  The great Kali.

• 11:23Matt McCusker?

  Asians first, I feel like you like, there's like an Asian football player, right? Kickers or something? Definitely baseball.

• 11:28Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 11:29Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I think so, but I never seen Indian guy.

• 11:31Speaker 00

  Japanese in baseball are doing great.

• 11:32Matt McCusker?

  Tell you what, the, uh, what is it? Hawaiian guys or whatever?

• 11:36Speaker 00

  They were doing well on the draft last night.

• 11:38Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that's, and that's, I feel like Hawaiian guys, like you get a lot of racial, it's a very safe racial excitement. You know what I mean? So you're like, oh, what is that? You guys, you're like campfires or something? You have cool tattoos. It's like, you know.

• 11:50Speaker 00

  I watched some of the draft last night and I don't know if it's the economy has gotten worse, but the outfits they're wearing have become less ostentatious when they're getting picked. Last year, I meant there was a lot of silk, there was a lot of double breasted people wearing Adorian ruffs and all sorts of crazy things. And this year, normal, normal suits. The Sam Owens had big suits, but everyone just had a normal. Is that a fair observation?

• 12:14Speaker 01

  I didn't see it, but I. Yeah, maybe it was a subdued draft.

• 12:18Speaker 00

  Last year, everyone looked like they were in the capital at the Hunger Games.

• 12:22Speaker 01

  No, they'll, they'll bring that back. Don't worry. They'll be dressed like fucking idiots.

• 12:26Speaker 00

  Is it because there's a war and people going, it's not appropriate?

• 12:28Speaker 01

  No, I don't think so.

• 12:29Speaker 00

  Wear lime satin.

• 12:32Speaker 01

  They'll break it out.

• 12:32Speaker 00

  Breaches.

• 12:34Matt McCusker?

  That is true. So everyone was like, kind of modestly or like classically dressed.

• 12:38Speaker 00

  It was insane last year.

• 12:40Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that is pretty wild, man.

• 12:41Speaker 01

  It was probably the first time you really saw.

• 12:44Speaker 00

  Saw it. And now I've just become used to.

• 12:46Speaker 01

  Yeah, we're all totally used to it. Like a pregame NBA walk is the craziest thing I've ever seen. Every outfit's the worst outfit I've ever seen.

• 12:54Speaker 00

  The cool thing would be to go back to the late nineties, huge jacket, huge jacket, ill fitting pants of the late nineties. I think that's the look that.

• 13:02Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, Jinkos have somehow infiltrated the black community. I've seen a lot of like dudes wearing like super wide leg pants.

• 13:08Speaker 01

  It's nice.

• 13:08Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. So that is, that's, I don't know. I feel like that doesn't.

• 13:14Matt McCusker?

  I don't, I don't like it for them, to be honest.

• 13:16Speaker 01

  Jinko's?

• 13:16Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. It's not for them. I just think it doesn't look right. I don't know, unless you're like kick flipping or something on the way up there. It's just kinda weird.

• 13:23Speaker 01

  I see how you, yeah, they're stealing your culture.

• 13:26Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, true. I mean, I, you know.

• 13:27Speaker 01

  So now, now you understand, Matt, that that could be a little frustrating.

• 13:31Speaker 00

  They bring in the frusted tips? What else are they gonna take away from us?

• 13:35Speaker 01

  They kind of have, yeah.

• 13:37Matt McCusker?

  Oh, here we go. This episode is brought to you by No Bull.

• 13:41Speaker 01

  Matt, please speak for 15 to 20 seconds about the worst pair of pants you've ever had.

• 13:46Matt McCusker?

  Hmm.

• 13:47Speaker 01

  And go.

• 13:49Matt McCusker?

  Uh, worst pair of pants I've ever had, I, I, I know what they are. So I had these, another brand of high-end activewear, but they almost, they were so sleek, they felt almost like pantyhose. And I would get a, and this is, I'm just talking pants right now, No Bull. I would have like a doorbell bulge. It looked like you could literally press the button and enter my house. It was, they were so tough. First of all, they were like so tight on me and I felt like a girl.

• 14:13Speaker 01

  You're saying your dick and nuts were sticking out?

• 14:15Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, like I was dressed.

• 14:16Speaker 01

  But it was soft enough that it'd probably give you a slight chub all day.

• 14:19Matt McCusker?

  That's the thing, but then it goes away. I was just so conflicted because I was like, am I borderline, am I like that one politician's husband, if you know what I'm talking about?

• 14:27Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 14:27Matt McCusker?

  I felt like him a little bit. I felt like him a little bit. Worst experience with pants ever, and then I was hard on the flight the whole time.

• 14:34Speaker 01

  You're gonna, you're gonna love this. No Bull has decided to put an end to our misery.

• 14:37Matt McCusker?

  Thank God.

• 14:37Speaker 01

  All right, it's, it's a training brand known for award-winning footwear and apparel, and now they're bringing their no bullshit attitude to men's pants. What the fuck?

• 14:44Matt McCusker?

  Can you even say that?

• 14:45Speaker 01

  I guess. These guys are edgy as hell. Starting with these things called the Deal Maker. It's basically a full-on jean swap. Same look, but breathable, stretchy, and actually comfortable. No stiffness, no weird breaking in period, none of that.

• 15:00Matt McCusker?

  Like a good jean swap.

• 15:01Speaker 01

  I love a jean swap. And then there's the game changer, slacks. Made out of sweats. You ever fucking think about it? Seems impossible, but it's super soft, there's tons of stretch, and they still look sharp as hell.

• 15:12Matt McCusker?

  Perfect.

• 15:13Speaker 01

  I'd, I'm gonna say, "Mom, can you go to the store? I need you to buy me the Deal Maker and the Game Changer." She's gonna go, "Son, that's bullshit." And I'm gonna go, "No, Mom."

• 15:56Matt McCusker?

  Dude, me and Nate were fired up on the Sixers the other day.

• 16:00Speaker 01

  It was a fun game, dude.

• 16:01Matt McCusker?

  Dude, it was awesome. They all went up, they were on stage and I saw, it was like the fourth quarter, all I saw was the fourth quarter and I saw like the, I saw the Sixers only up by like three, the Celtics made a little run.

• 16:11Speaker 01

  And then the Sixers.

• 16:12Matt McCusker?

  Maxey came out.

• 16:13Speaker 01

  With the layup, that layup, screaming to the crowd, and one.

• 16:16Speaker 03

  It might have been my favorite.

• 16:17Speaker 01

  It was so sick.

• 16:18Matt McCusker?

  Dude, just before that, just draining those two threes and like, just like crazy shots.

• 16:22Speaker 01

  Hit a three and hit that wink.

• 16:23Matt McCusker?

  Oh, my.

• 16:23Speaker 01

  Dude, live, I rewound, I rewound it. I hit fucking 10 seconds back and I go, dude, check this out. Look at this fucking wink, dude, how fucking cool was that?

• 16:34Matt McCusker?

  Nate was on stage while, because it was like, oh shit, it was getting close. He went up and I'm watching his Maxey ball out and I was just looking up there like, where is he, dude? He needs to see this, man. This is, we were both, we were fired up, man.

• 16:43Speaker 01

  That was awesome.

• 16:44Matt McCusker?

  That was great.

• 16:44Speaker 03

  Didn't expect that one.

• 16:45Speaker 01

  I was just getting into Philly while that was happening. And it was funny because when you get in, it was, the whole city was orange.

• 16:54Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 16:54Speaker 01

  For the Flyers. And the Flyers were playing the next night, that night the Sixers were currently playing. I was like, it's funny that the city is already like just giving up.

• 17:02Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 17:02Speaker 03

  Everybody did, except for them.

• 17:04Speaker 01

  Then that game, that was great.

• 17:05Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 17:06Speaker 01

  Now I hear Embiid's, uh?

• 17:08Speaker 03

  I, I don't, I don't know. Part of it, I think they're trying to fuck with, uh, Boston to be like, he might come, so play like, so they prepare for that. Cause he is appendix, he just had, no one's come back two weeks after having an appendix removed, I think, ever.

• 17:20Speaker 01

  How many fucking guys have gotten that during the season?

• 17:23Speaker 03

  Uh, it happens more, it happened a few times during the season, but the playoffs is where people were like, maybe because it's the playoffs, go rush them back.

• 17:29Matt McCusker?

  They also do have some crazy stuff now medically, like, like I feel like ACLs now, they just, they pop you like right back in.

• 17:36Speaker 00

  Appendicitis?

• 17:37Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, appendicitis. Compared to what, yeah, I thought it used to be like an ender.

• 17:40Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 17:41Matt McCusker?

  Appendicitis is like, yeah, you're, you gotta be down for like at least three weeks, dude, I would imagine.

• 17:48Speaker 03

  But is that like a sports, is that like a sports recovery? Or is that just like?

• 17:51Speaker 01

  I think that's just like you can walk around.

• 17:53Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 17:57Matt McCusker?

  Rough and tumble play.

• 17:59Speaker 01

  Especially, he's gonna play rough and tumble.

• 18:01Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, true.

• 18:03Speaker 01

  He be falling on the ground every fucking 10 seconds.

• 18:06Speaker 03

  If we can win one more, make it a definite like game six in it, like six game scenario, I think he'll pop back up.

• 18:12Speaker 01

  What do you think about tonight? I think Celtics by 50.

• 18:16Matt McCusker?

  What?

• 18:19Speaker 01

  Usually, usually you win a game like that.

• 18:22Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I was wondering.

• 18:23Speaker 01

  It's usually a comeback.

• 18:24Matt McCusker?

  I liked at the very end when they just put in all their white guys and they were just breaking threes the whole time. When your whites are missing threes, it's like.

• 18:31Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 18:31Speaker 03

  You're done.

• 18:32Matt McCusker?

  That's bad. That's bad stuff. Yeah, they threw in the fucking scrub squad at the very, you could tell they're like, all right, fuck this game, we'll get it next one.

• 18:40Speaker 03

  I think we can get one more at home. I don't know about this very next one, but we can get one more at home.

• 18:44Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 18:44Speaker 01

  It's gonna be exciting.

• 18:45Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 18:46Matt McCusker?

  I think, I do think Boston's gonna come back strong. So when you're, when you're missing like that, you're just like, all right, I got the worst over, now I'm just gonna start five.

• 18:52Speaker 03

  Yeah, they never, they never shoot like that. That's, that's the problem. That was probably their worst game all season, shooting. But that might be defense. Might be the matchup.

• 19:03Speaker 01

  LaMarr's evil ass.

• 19:04Speaker 03

  Cause he's a hater.

• 19:05Speaker 01

  He is a hater.

• 19:06Speaker 03

  He's a hater. He pretends he's not a hater.

• 19:07Speaker 01

  He's an actual hater.

• 19:08Speaker 03

  Yeah. That's why I don't wanna watch the game.

• 19:10Speaker 01

  Which is crazy for a guy who doesn't really give a fuck about sports.

• 19:12Speaker 03

  He just wants to see his friends say.

• 19:14Speaker 01

  He's a, he's an anime wrestling video game guy and then he'll be like, fuck the Sixers. It's just an evil.

• 19:22Speaker 03

  We, we, we were all happy for you to see Cody Rhodes.

• 19:30Matt McCusker?

  What do you mean?

• 19:31Speaker 04

  It's owned by a management group, right? It's not owned by one guy. It's owned by a group of people who are only.

• 19:35Matt McCusker?

  That's why you don't like them.

• 19:37Speaker 04

  Yeah, cause their only goal is to make money, not to be good or win.

• 19:39Matt McCusker?

  What the fuck do you think they're all doing?

• 19:41Speaker 01

  What do you think wrestling is? What do you think wrestling is?

• 19:44Speaker 04

  No, I'm saying that's not in the spirit of sports still. Like when it's like, when it's like Larry Ballmer owning the Clippers, the Clippers are gonna try. But when it's like a group of dudes who own like five teams.

• 19:54Speaker 00

  I've never heard this, but this is exciting to me. You want, you think if there's any, if there's more than one owner?

• 19:59Speaker 04

  No, it's a managing group. It's like venture capitalists, like own the team.

• 20:04Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 20:05Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 20:05Speaker 00

  It's still the team. It's still the coach, it's still the players.

• 20:07Speaker 04

  They're just trying to make money. They're not trying to like win. They're just trying to make sure they milk money out of people.

• 20:12Speaker 00

  I don't know what the Dallas Cowboys have been doing, but I think they're just trying to make money.

• 20:15Speaker 01

  Yeah, but the, the, the goal is to win because that makes the most money.

• 20:18Speaker 04

  That's not true.

• 20:20Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, it is.

• 20:22Speaker 00

  It's probably better to win than not win.

• 20:24Speaker 01

  It's definitely true. Get some people in those seats if you're good.

• 20:27Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, and you can still be a single owner, but they probably have investors too. You know what I mean? So.

• 20:32Speaker 01

  What do you mean? You don't think that's true?

• 20:33Speaker 04

  I don't think you have to win to make money.

• 20:34Matt McCusker?

  You sell more merch if you win the Super Bowl.

• 20:36Speaker 04

  What about the Cleveland Browns?

• 20:39Speaker 00

  What about the Cleveland?

• 20:40Speaker 04

  They sell out every year, but they never win.

• 20:43Speaker 00

  What about the Green Bay Packers? They've got a team ownership, you know, like the city owns the team.

• 20:47Speaker 04

  They win.

• 20:48Speaker 00

  But they don't have a single owner. It's everybody buys in, everybody. It's a community team.

• 20:51Speaker 01

  The Flyers.

• 20:52Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 20:53Speaker 01

  They've sucked for a decade.

• 20:55Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 20:56Speaker 01

  Now they're back this, now it's like packed when they play.

• 20:59Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 20:59Speaker 01

  And they're actually, like even the players are like, holy fuck, I didn't even know it could be like this. And it's like they're selling out every, like, you understand?

• 21:06Speaker 04

  Yeah. But are they owned by a management group or are they owned by like a guy?

• 21:11Speaker 01

  I'm not sure there's, I'm trying to point out that winning helps financially.

• 21:14Speaker 04

  Yeah, I agree.

• 21:15Speaker 01

  Winning helps financially.

• 21:16Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 21:21Speaker 01

  Yeah, for the most part. There's usually, yeah. Yeah.

• 21:26Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I think so. Well, that's a good theory. I like, I like the idea of it of being like, you know, I want, I want a guy this, you know?

• 21:34Speaker 00

  This, there's an assumption. Just put up like.

• 21:37Speaker 01

  It's an interesting reason for you to just not like to talk shit on Nate's team. Yeah, you don't even have a single owner.

• 21:45Speaker 00

  Do you know the F45 gyms?

• 21:47Speaker 01

  Huh?

• 21:47Speaker 00

  Have I ever told you about the F45 gym man?

• 21:50Speaker 01

  No.

• 21:50Speaker 00

  He was an Australian man who invented that kind of gym. And then he came out and he started buying teams. He came to America and he started buying teams, but he like didn't have huge money. So he bought like a rugby league team. I think like a very low level baseball team, but he named them after a cocktail. That he was inventing. I think I'm getting this right. I'm gonna like, his name was Adam Gilchrist. And he called them like the Gilgronies because he was gonna come out with his own personal cocktail. Called like the Gilgronie, like a Negroni, but for his name.

• 22:22Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 22:22Speaker 00

  But then he went bankrupt and the cocktail never came out, but the team had two years of playing.

• 22:27Matt McCusker?

  As the Gilgronies.

• 22:28Speaker 00

  And they changed the name and like people were very upset who were fans of the team. And everything about it, I'm not saying that he was necessarily a huge cocaine addict, but

• 22:37Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 22:37Speaker 00

  Everything about it screams, he bought two teams, he named them both after cocktails that never came out. He was found to be illegally paying the players or something. And then he, and then they like, they just weren't allowed to play in the playoffs. And now they folded and now there's no team in Austin.

• 22:51Matt McCusker?

  And that's a single owner, Lemare. See, that's what happened. That was a tyrant.

• 22:54Speaker 00

  Am I getting this right?

• 22:54Matt McCusker?

  You need the checks and balances of an organization.

• 22:57Speaker 01

  You know who else had a single owner?

• 23:00Speaker 01

  Germany.

• 23:01Matt McCusker?

  True.

• 23:04Matt McCusker?

  You want a strong man. I think you're just missing Vince McMahon. Honestly, I think that's what it is.

• 23:08Speaker 01

  You miss Vince.

• 23:09Matt McCusker?

  I think he's projecting his Vince loss onto the Sixers.

• 23:12Speaker 01

  How'd you feel about Mania?

• 23:16Matt McCusker?

  Oh, yeah.

• 23:16Speaker 04

  Let me say something, brother. I'm kind of glad I didn't go.

• 23:20Matt McCusker?

  Really?

• 23:21Speaker 01

  What about Cody Rhodes?

• 23:22Speaker 04

  Cody, well, that was nice.

• 23:24Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 23:24Speaker 04

  It was cool, but celeb mania, dude.

• 23:27Speaker 01

  There was a lot of celebs.

• 23:28Matt McCusker?

  Also, Cody Rhodes kind of like weekend dad at you. He's like, come on, buddy. We'll go to WrestleMania.

• 23:36Speaker 01

  He did.

• 23:37Speaker 00

  Cody Rhodes never reached back in.

• 23:38Matt McCusker?

  Big promises, Lemare. Lemare had his bags packed. Be like, daddy's coming to get me soon.

• 23:45Speaker 00

  Never came.

• 23:47Speaker 01

  That's how the tree went down.

• 23:55Speaker 00

  I didn't even want to go to WrestleMania. It wasn't even a good one.

• 23:58Speaker 01

  He didn't say anything. And then like the day before he was like, Shane, can you ask Cody Rhodes if I can go to WrestleMania? I was like, no, dude.

• 24:06Matt McCusker?

  He has a fly in me to WrestleMania.

• 24:10Speaker 04

  How to get to Vegas for like a hundred and fifty bucks on like planes.

• 24:13Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, it's cheap as hell, dude, that's.

• 24:15Speaker 04

  Well, yeah.

• 24:17Matt McCusker?

  No, Vegas is like notoriously cheaper, right? Cause you they like incentivize it.

• 24:20Speaker 04

  Direct flights were like eight hundred dollars.

• 24:22Matt McCusker?

  Oh, for mania.

• 24:23Speaker 04

  Workarounds. Yeah.

• 24:25Speaker 00

  I always thought Vegas was the cheapest flight.

• 24:27Speaker 04

  Huh?

• 24:28Speaker 00

  You talking about a connecting flight?

• 24:30Speaker 04

  Yeah, I was just gonna, I was gonna take a flight to Burbank and get off in Vegas, cause it stops in Vegas.

• 24:35Matt McCusker?

  Dude, that you should have done your personal road to WrestleMania where you just got meta glasses and just like film the whole journey of like, I'm gonna get in here one way or the other.

• 24:42Speaker 01

  I'll stick in. What do you mean, get off? I thought a bus was a plane. What do you mean, get off at a different stop?

• 24:50Matt McCusker?

  No, I got it. That's smart.

• 24:52Speaker 01

  You mean a connecting flight.

• 24:53Speaker 00

  No, but you get the connecting flight to another location.

• 24:56Speaker 01

  And you get off.

• 24:56Speaker 00

  Get off in the middle.

• 24:58Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 24:58Matt McCusker?

  Whoa.

• 24:59Speaker 01

  You don't get back on at the connecting flight.

• 25:01Matt McCusker?

  Okay.

• 25:02Speaker 00

  That's very sneaky.

• 25:04Matt McCusker?

  So you just get off and you're out?

• 25:05Speaker 04

  Yeah, like I'm in Vegas, this is where I wanna go.

• 25:09Matt McCusker?

  Smart.

• 25:09Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 25:10Speaker 01

  I didn't even know that was possible.

• 25:12Matt McCusker?

  They tried to hold me and Nate had to do that. We flew one, we got rerouted and ended up in Cleveland and there we had to go to Cincinnati or one or the other. And then we like landed in the place where we could just drive and be there. And the lady was like, you guys can't get off the plane. And I was like, I'm getting off the plane. I have a car in it. She's like, it's, it's not safe. And I was like, I don't feel safe right now on this plane. I gotta go. I was telling Nate, I was like, bro, I'm about to fake a heart attack. You're gonna have to do, you're gonna have to do it too. So I was gonna be like, oh, Nate would be like, oh, me too. We gotta go. Yeah, but they let, the pilot was chill. He was like, yeah, they can get off, man. Just let them off. I didn't tell you about this? Some guy tried to like flight big dick me. He's like, dude, I fly like three hundred times a year. This is not a big deal. I was like, I'd say it's a big deal. I gotta, I just have to leave this plane. Like, get the fuck out of my face, dude.

• 25:57Matt McCusker?

  Trust me, brother, this is nothing. Alright, man, fuck out of here.

• 26:02Speaker 01

  God.

• 26:02Matt McCusker?

  I was like, I just have to go. Cause if I went back to Chicago and then got stuck there, I would have like missed the show.

• 26:07Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 26:07Matt McCusker?

  Like, this is not a big deal. Okay, it's cool, man.

• 26:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, who are you?

• 26:11Matt McCusker?

  Shut up.

• 26:12Speaker 01

  Stay out of it.

• 26:12Matt McCusker?

  Get out of here.

• 26:13Speaker 01

  You fucking idiot.

• 26:16Matt McCusker?

  But yeah, it was nice. But yeah, I was, uh, I was worried. I also thought too, I was like, yeah, who cares if I just like disobey the stewardess, I'll get, I'll get, I won't be able to fly United. I don't even like.

• 26:24Speaker 01

  See how much I don't like myself. I could see myself doing that.

• 26:28Matt McCusker?

  What?

• 26:28Speaker 01

  That awful behavior of sitting next to somebody and being like, I take a lot of flights. This is nothing. I could catch myself in a moment of being a giant douche.

• 26:37Matt McCusker?

  Why do you think you would do that?

• 26:38Speaker 01

  I don't think I would.

• 26:39Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 26:40Speaker 01

  Well, I'm saying I'm capable of that. That would be something I would regret.

• 26:43Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 26:44Speaker 01

  But I could be like, I fly all the time. Just a stranger.

• 26:49Matt McCusker?

  I, I say, I'll catch myself saying it at like the airport where I'll just be, yeah, same thing. Like, yeah, I actually, I fly a good amount, but I would never, in, in, interjecting in a person trying to gain freedom from the airline to be like, dude, you just gotta stay here. It's like, well, dude, I'm not going to a fucking corporate banquet where I can just not show up.

• 27:06Speaker 01

  I would think to myself, this guy must be freaking out. If at the connecting flight, he's just like, you know what? I'll get out here and I'll drive.

• 27:12Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 27:12Speaker 01

  Be like, dude.

• 27:13Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, you're fine.

• 27:14Speaker 01

  Fly a lot. This happens all the time.

• 27:15Speaker 00

  That's how all the airports are built, is to turn us against one another. So we don't unify and rise up. I've thought about this a lot as to why that, why are airports the uniquely, there's not like a nice traditionally designed airport. They're all cold angles and glass and judgment. Split you up, make you feel atomized so that when there's a delay or whatever, you don't, you know, you know, unify, you don't band together. They want you turning.

• 27:34Speaker 01

  Sorry, while you're talking, the fucking rent flew right back into that box.

• 27:38Speaker 00

  I'm very impassioned about airport design.

• 27:41Matt McCusker?

  I heard, I heard a theory that they're actually.

• 27:43Speaker 01

  This my house looks like New LaGuardia.

• 27:48Matt McCusker?

  I heard a theory they're thin zones where it's like people are dislocated from like time. You don't know like you're different, like.

• 27:53Speaker 00

  Like a casino in an airport.

• 27:55Matt McCusker?

  Well, they were talking more like it's almost like a dream space where you're kind of like, no one knows, like you're in a different place. You don't know what, if you're gonna get to go or not. The, the time zones are all scattered. Kind of fuck, people, that's why people freak out.

• 28:07Speaker 00

  What's that music that I can't figure out what that music is that plays when they play a liminal space on a reel. It's been stuck in my head for days. Do you know what I'm talking about? It's like Donkey Kong music.

• 28:15Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 28:15Speaker 00

  It's like underwater Donkey Kong music. It makes me, every time it pops up on the reel, I, I don't even know. I don't even look at the, the meme. I just feel.

• 30:02Speaker 00

  Incredible.

• 30:02Matt McCusker?

  Feel sad. I've been watching people get kicked off. The Midwest safety is taking over my algorithm.

• 30:06Speaker 01

  How good is Midwest?

• 30:07Speaker 00

  My algorithm, what's Midwest safe?

• 30:08Matt McCusker?

  Best, dude.

• 30:09Speaker 01

  Just long body cam videos?

• 30:11Matt McCusker?

  It's.

• 30:11Speaker 01

  Great.

• 30:12Matt McCusker?

  Dude.

• 30:12Speaker 01

  Great narration. The guy breaks down the story.

• 30:15Matt McCusker?

  Yep. The officer recap. I like the officer. He's a Philly, he was a Philly officer, by the way.

• 30:18Speaker 01

  Was he Philly?

• 30:19Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. He recaps like, this is what happens. Yeah, it's very common. Um, um. I'm so ready to now for civilian disturbances. I was in, uh, I was in Phoenix recently and I saw this homeless lady, you know, she like went and met up with her like homeless boyfriend. And they were sitting outside a pizza place eating. And at one point, the guy was like, that's fucking bullshit. And I was like, I might have to intervene right now. And I looked over and the lady just went, why are you looking at? And I was like, whoa, what the hell?

• 30:45Speaker 01

  You should have said, I've been watching a lot of Midwest safety. Just so you know.

• 30:49Matt McCusker?

  I will call the cops right now.

• 30:51Speaker 01

  I will pull the trigger so if you move quickly at all, 15 shots into your fucking car.

• 30:57Matt McCusker?

  There was one, it was sad, but there was a guy who was pretending to work on a house and he was just, I think he was probably just like stealing the pipes or whatever. So the cops like, he's like, no, he's like, I'm working here, guy. And he kept, it was, he was like lying, but he was pretty, he was like, it seemed like he was smooth with it in his head, but he was also like, he would say the same thing over and over. You go, place is a shithole. You guys gotta see, he kept trying to do like contractor talk. And they're like, so what are you, what are you doing in here? And he's like, plumbing job, doing plumbing job, I'm a drywall company. And they'd be like, okay, you know, and eventually he's like, the lady said you didn't get hired. And he was just like, I got a gun. And he ran inside, he just ran inside and he did suicide by cop. It was sad.

• 31:33Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 31:33Matt McCusker?

  Shot him in the head.

• 31:34Speaker 01

  It's really.

• 31:35Matt McCusker?

  Oh, it's pretty, it's like cops, but like on HBO cops, basically. Kill them. And then the cops come, they're like, I shot him. There's that you get to see him talk shop and they're sitting there and they're like, cause he did like brandish what looked like a weapon at them. And, um, the one cop rolled up, he goes, yo, I knew that guy. Guy, he was a boxer, man. He would have fucked you up, dude. If you guys had a fight, that guy knocked people the fuck, sucked at jiu jitsu, terrible. Fuck, he was fucking badass.

• 31:58Speaker 01

  Over his body.

• 31:59Matt McCusker?

  There was a young guy, he's like badass boxer though, man. This guy was great. And then they're like, all right, we gotta get him out of here. He's dead.

• 32:05Speaker 01

  There's so many good ones. There's one, there's one, I mean, it's obviously really sad because it's a guy with like PTSD and clearly like a meth roid rage type thing. But he's in on the bottom floor of this like apartment complex. So his windows go out into like the courtyard part. But they're like, while they're approaching, they're like, we, we got a disturbance. And then he just, they look into the room and you see him in the corner like naked, just like stand up and he's gigantic. He's like, ah, and then he comes through the window into fight all the cops. And he's so big, they're like, please stop, stop, stop dude. And he's like, which one of you want to fucking die tonight? He like chases them all.

• 32:45Speaker 00

  Did they kill this man?

• 32:47Speaker 01

  Uh, fuck it.

• 32:48Speaker 00

  But is this, is that all these videos?

• 32:49Speaker 01

  Not all, not all.

• 32:50Speaker 00

  And they're trying to get suicided?

• 32:52Speaker 01

  No, not all. And some of them are hilarious.

• 32:54Speaker 00

  Oh, good.

• 32:54Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 32:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, there's, some of them are really fun.

• 32:56Matt McCusker?

  There was this drunk, there was like a tall white dude, he got, he like, he had like, fighting with his girlfriend. So he was at like a work, like a convention kind of thing where he's supposed to like stand at a table and hand out information. He ditched it, got hammered in like a strip mall, uh, restaurant. He comes outside, they like kick him out, he's just outside with the cops and they're like talking to him and out of nowhere, he would just go, "I got that good cushion alcohol."

• 33:19Speaker 01

  Was this me?

• 33:22Speaker 01

  That sounds like my weekend.

• 33:23Matt McCusker?

  "I got some damn bitches I could call."

• 33:26Speaker 00

  It was so funny.

• 33:27Matt McCusker?

  "I don't know what I was doing out here." And they're like, they're like calling Uber, he's like, "I will." And he was like, play Spotify and be like, play Young Thug.

• 33:37Matt McCusker?

  It was, he was the funniest dude.

• 33:39Speaker 01

  Bro, what had, what had happened there?

• 33:40Matt McCusker?

  He just would hit on the lady cop the whole time. The guys would talk to me, yo, tell them to stop talking to me. I only want to talk to you. And he'd be like, yo, you're so, I love you so much. Dude, he was so, and then they tased him and he was like, ah, and he fell down. He fell down, he got up, he goes, yo, thanks for doing that. I kind of liked that. Do it again. They're like, dude, stop, get out of here. His boss comes and picks him up and he's like, you fucking asshole, get in the car.

• 34:00Speaker 01

  That was, uh, they did, every once in a while they have a fun one like that.

• 34:03Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, it was.

• 34:03Speaker 01

  Like Shad.

• 34:04Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 34:05Speaker 01

  Remember that guy? That was Midwest Safety. Yeah, that was a Midwest Safety classic.

• 34:10Matt McCusker?

  Name's Shad.

• 34:11Speaker 01

  There's also, there was one guy who barricaded himself in his house. Those are always good. That one ended bad. He got, I think he got shot.

• 34:17Matt McCusker?

  Yep, yep.

• 34:17Speaker 01

  He put up a fucking fight and the cops are always so excited to break out. They're like, why do we have this military tank? This fucking giant Bearcat SWAT vehicle? Just to put a fucking battering ram on the front of it, break down some guy's shitty front door. He's in there throwing fucking kitchen knives out.

• 34:38Speaker 01

  They gassed him out for like four hours. They're like, the sun's going down. We have to go in. I don't know how he's still in there.

• 34:43Matt McCusker?

  Oh.

• 34:44Speaker 01

  He's just creating barricades in the house.

• 34:46Matt McCusker?

  Dude, it's.

• 34:48Speaker 01

  Eventually he pulled out a gun and they killed him.

• 34:50Matt McCusker?

  They'll get him.

• 34:51Speaker 01

  But he was throwing a lot of stuff for a while, which was.

• 34:53Matt McCusker?

  Throwing knives is wild.

• 34:55Speaker 01

  They tried to throw a fucking gas canister in, they'd see him throw it right back out. Damn, how do you, this guy's fielding these things?

• 35:02Matt McCusker?

  I like when the dude slipped the handcuffs.

• 35:03Speaker 01

  Little can of corn.

• 35:04Matt McCusker?

  Women slip the handcuffs a lot.

• 35:05Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 35:06Matt McCusker?

  There was a lady who slipped the handcuffs and stole a cop car and jumped in the front and just fucking beelined it and just drove 80 miles an hour. And then she like pulled off into the woods and luckily slowed down and just whacked an old stone wall. You see the inside cam? She's like, boom.

• 35:21Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, it is really horrific.

• 35:23Matt McCusker?

  It's Midwest, it's my whole algorithm now. It's just dash. And then there's the other ones that like to get pretty wicked, man.

• 35:29Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 35:29Matt McCusker?

  You're like, nah, I'm staying Midwest.

• 35:30Speaker 01

  You gotta check that bottom where it says Midwest safety.

• 35:32Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I always do. There's some of them where I'm just like, yeah.

• 35:35Speaker 01

  Cause at least they blur out the carnage.

• 35:38Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that's true.

• 35:39Speaker 01

  In Midwest safety.

• 35:40Matt McCusker?

  I saw one where a guy, it wasn't Midwest.

• 35:41Speaker 01

  Did you watch any mass shootings?

• 35:43Matt McCusker?

  No, I steer clear. I try to keep those ones.

• 35:46Speaker 01

  Really fucking bad.

• 35:47Matt McCusker?

  Those ones are sad. I steer clear. I saw one that was pretty fucked up on it. It was like a different thing, but it was a guy who had worked in a, I guess like a, some sort of care unit for like the developmentally disabled. And there was a lady who, I forget what she had, but she was like, basically a vegetable. She couldn't move, couldn't talk, couldn't do anything. And he impregnated her. So they're just like doing a routine thing and they're like, dude, she's pregnant. And they're like, what the fuck? So they had to do like an investigative thing to figure out like who was with her.

• 36:13Speaker 01

  It's a miracle.

• 36:14Matt McCusker?

  Dude, the guy was just this young kid who was a boxer. So then they like interviewed him. He's like, no, I never got to spend alone time, blah, blah, blah. And everyone else they interviewed was like, check with this guy. He was fucking weird.

• 36:24Speaker 01

  Definitely fucked up.

• 36:25Matt McCusker?

  Dude, he did. And well, so they did a paternity test. But they were like, they showed footage of him and he would be around, or I think they talked about it. He would walk around.

• 36:33Speaker 01

  The wildest Mario episode ever.

• 36:34Matt McCusker?

  He would, yeah, dude. He would stand over them and just be like,

• 36:39Matt McCusker?

  you're just shadow box the whole time. And then, yeah, they, they like, when they revealed the paternity test, they like told him like, well, you're actually, you are the father. And they just had the camera on him still and he goes, fuck. Dude, fuck. Jesus, please help me. Please. I'll do anything. He's like, I'll be poor my rest of my life. I don't care. And like, dude, you're going to jail for like three years.

• 37:03Speaker 01

  You're gonna be poor the rest of your life. You fucked a vegetable lady.

• 37:05Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 37:08Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, it's really sad.

• 37:08Speaker 00

  So what is this channel?

• 37:10Matt McCusker?

  Dude, it's Midwest Safety.

• 37:11Speaker 00

  That's not Midwest Safety.

• 37:12Matt McCusker?

  No, that was, that's like you'll, if you start with Midwest Safety.

• 37:15Speaker 01

  That doesn't sound like a Midwest Safety.

• 37:16Matt McCusker?

  That is not a Midwest Safety episode.

• 37:17Speaker 00

  Sounds like a Maury Povich. Sounds like a dream.

• 37:19Matt McCusker?

  Well, dude, here's the weird part of Midwest Safety because they arrest women. There's a lot of female arrests. And there's an undeniably erotic component to the whole thing where it's like a lady in yoga pants. And it'll be sad. It'll be like, she's drunk behind the wheel. Her one year old is like trapped underneath the car seat. And they like pull the kid out and then she's just like, give me my fucking baby right now. And they have to like wrestle her to the ground. It's just like.

• 37:41Speaker 00

  It's hot. You're saying it's an erotic.

• 37:43Matt McCusker?

  I think there's an undeniable. Well, that one wasn't very erotic, but there'll be ones where they like wrestle a lady down into like a hotel bed while her boyfriend's getting like beat up. And I'm like, this is kind of kink. This is just kind of kink.

• 37:54Speaker 01

  We, yeah.

• 37:55Matt McCusker?

  It's not mine, but I'm like, it's.

• 37:56Speaker 01

  You can see where it comes from.

• 37:57Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 37:58Speaker 01

  Just a big, strong guy coming and beating your ass, beating your girlfriend's ass. They leave, but he's sitting in the room.

• 38:03Matt McCusker?

  Your boyfriend the whole time is like, he's raping me. Dude, there's one guy, he wouldn't stop. He's raping me.

• 38:11Speaker 01

  It's quality.

• 38:12Matt McCusker?

  It was great. It's so funny.

• 38:13Speaker 01

  It's quality stuff.

• 38:15Matt McCusker?

  Sorry, this is my last one, but the, the one where.

• 38:18Speaker 01

  I understand your joy for me. I'm so happy Midwest, you found Midwest Safety.

• 38:21Matt McCusker?

  It's all I watched on the plane now.

• 38:22Speaker 01

  It's the best.

• 38:23Matt McCusker?

  Dude, he goes.

• 38:24Speaker 01

  Download them for the flight. I'll see what happened then.

• 38:28Matt McCusker?

  It's just the best scenario ever because there's two people on a work trip. It's the wife's work trip. The husband's just there. Gets hammered at the bar. And it was like, I guess he was like a quarter Native American, which comes into play later. And he, uh, so the woman just gets woken up to officers, who's just being like, wake up. And she's like, she's also drunk. She's like, what? And the husband's like, some guy started with me, babe. I stood up for myself. Don't worry about it. He was just fighting people.

• 38:54Matt McCusker?

  This is over like saying like, this is my land. You stole it from me. And they're like, shut up. And he's like, yeah, so then.

• 39:00Speaker 01

  Oh damn, he tried to reclaim his land.

• 39:02Matt McCusker?

  He tried to reclaim.

• 39:02Speaker 01

  Tried to reclaim territory.

• 39:03Matt McCusker?

  At like a Holiday Inn Express. So then.

• 39:07Speaker 01

  A bunch of hockey dads.

• 39:08Matt McCusker?

  Dude, they're like, yeah, exactly.

• 39:09Speaker 01

  Those guys on a travel team getting wasted.

• 39:11Matt McCusker?

  Shut up. And then he, so he's like, I'll stand up for myself. Never stopped standing up for myself. And he kept trying to step to the cops. They tased him.

• 39:18Speaker 01

  He must've got hit with the Native American algorithm.

• 39:20Matt McCusker?

  I, dude, I think so.

• 39:21Speaker 01

  I've seen a lot of those. Those are my favorites. It's just modern day Native Americans like you're on stolen land. Never forget that. And then they do a fucking ceremonial dance. Every comment's like, fuck you pussy scoreboard. You lost. You had home court advantage and lost bitch. Fuck you. Scoreboard.

• 39:39Speaker 00

  I don't know if what I'm about to say is true, but it's what I just found out about Oklahoma.

• 39:43Speaker 01

  What?

• 39:44Speaker 00

  Cities, there are rules about sex offenders that they can't live like a certain distance from a school or other type of things. So what they do in the cities is they organize, they space the schools and the other places that sex offenders can't go near. So the sex offenders can't stay anywhere. They do a full city plan to like block it. You know what I'm saying?

• 40:05Speaker 01

  That's great.

• 40:05Speaker 00

  Create a force field around it. But then the pedophiles have to live in a little satellite town.

• 40:11Speaker 01

  Reservation.

• 40:12Speaker 00

  It's like a town full of sex offenders.

• 40:14Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 40:14Speaker 00

  And that's where they go and stay because they can't also stay in one building, two at maximum. So there are like these little satellite pedophile communities.

• 40:21Speaker 01

  Wait, pedophiles can't.

• 40:22Speaker 00

  Just on the outside.

• 40:23Speaker 01

  Pedophiles can't, there can't be more than two pedophiles.

• 40:25Speaker 00

  I know.

• 40:26Speaker 01

  We got one more guest and we're fucked.

• 40:29Speaker 00

  We're only maxed out at two pedophiles in the building.

• 40:32Speaker 01

  That's why you can only have one guy at a time.

• 40:36Speaker 01

  That's why he's like, I'm having a big barbecue party, but just one of my pedophile buddies.

• 40:42Speaker 01

  You and Dorian.

• 40:43Matt McCusker?

  They're having a courtship. They both have their parole officers next to them.

• 40:48Speaker 00

  Succulent hot.

• 40:49Matt McCusker?

  Well, it's also every city, I feel like the cities in Oklahoma are all surrounded by reservations. Like the Indian reservations too. So it's like you got the res, you got the city and then it's pedophile.

• 40:57Speaker 00

  Little pedophile satellite town.

• 40:59Speaker 01

  Trailer park. What's that?

• 41:00Matt McCusker?

  Just middle earth with the pedophiles? Oh dude, pedophile park is pervert park.

• 41:04Speaker 01

  Pervert park.

• 41:05Matt McCusker?

  In Florida. That is a sad, if you ever want to get really sad, watch pervert park.

• 41:09Speaker 01

  Pedophile trailer park.

• 41:10Matt McCusker?

  Pedophile trailer park, Florida.

• 41:11Speaker 01

  Drives by and throws bottles at it. And then you talk, they interview the pedophiles who have all obviously had the worst.

• 41:18Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 41:19Matt McCusker?

  Except for one guy.

• 41:20Speaker 01

  Yeah, there was one original vampire.

• 41:22Matt McCusker?

  One original vampire.

• 41:23Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 41:23Matt McCusker?

  The rest of them tell you their life story because you're like, fuck these pedo. You see bottles flying over at them. You're like, good. And then you like to hear their story. You're like, oh, that's fucking really bad. And then there was one guy who was like, I just got fucking horny, man. I drove, drove to Mexico and tried to take a kid and yeah, they beat my ass and I drove away, but I got arrested on the border.

• 41:42Matt McCusker?

  What the fuck? We should fry that guy. He's like, I was just jammed up, man. I just figured I could take a kid from Mexico.

• 41:48Speaker 00

  It was a stressful day.

• 41:49Matt McCusker?

  It was just fucking horned up.

• 41:52Speaker 00

  Yeah, we've a lot.

• 41:53Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, it's real, but the documentary is just a lady who's a pedophile and then it's just like, yeah, I was like, I was fucking my dad. She would like fuck her dad on and off as an adult. It was, it's.

• 42:03Speaker 00

  Couldn't get a solid thing going. They just, she was on again, off again.

• 42:06Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, well, I think she'd been obviously vampire bitten early in life and then she was just like, yeah.

• 42:12Speaker 00

  This is a new expression?

• 42:12Matt McCusker?

  She would like break up with her boyfriend and move back into the dead.

• 42:14Speaker 00

  Pedophiles like vampires and you get caught.

• 42:16Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, pretty much, dude. Pretty much. All of them for the most part.

• 42:19Speaker 01

  Yeah, the last of those kids.

• 42:21Speaker 00

  We gotta break the cycle.

• 42:23Speaker 01

  Yeah, just all the last kids.

• 42:24Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 42:25Speaker 00

  Well, chemical castration.

• 42:28Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 42:28Speaker 00

  Castrate the.

• 42:29Matt McCusker?

  I think that's fair.

• 42:32Speaker 00

  You see Begonia?

• 42:33Speaker 01

  Where are you guys getting all these fucking Oklahoma facts?

• 42:38Speaker 01

  What the fuck's going on here, dude?

• 42:39Speaker 00

  We've actually been studying Oklahoma very closely.

• 42:41Matt McCusker?

  I've got more things to say about Oklahoma. While Shane's gone, we're gonna master Oklahoma pedophile law.

• 42:47Matt McCusker?

  Damn, so it's like.

• 42:48Speaker 00

  That's why the panhandle's so small in Oklahoma. It's for little penis.

• 42:53Matt McCusker?

  What is chemical, is it just sever your desire? Does it like fuck your gens up? Like, what is it?

• 42:58Speaker 00

  It makes me unhappy to think about. I only thought about it because I watched, I watched the Begonia movie and at the start they chemically castrate each other and from that point on I was against the movie.

• 43:06Matt McCusker?

  Really?

• 43:07Speaker 00

  Do you know what, do you know the movie I'm talking about?

• 43:08Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 43:09Speaker 00

  I watched it on the flight. He was very good as maybe a pedophile cop. It's sort of hinted at that he might be a pedophile, but then they.

• 43:16Matt McCusker?

  Oh, you know, I think they make it pretty clear. He like molested the main guy.

• 43:19Speaker 00

  He says, I'm sorry I did that to you. I never did it to another kid.

• 43:22Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, okay.

• 43:23Speaker 00

  And it's, uh, you know, he's very good. You know, it upset me. The whole film upset me.

• 43:28Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. Pedophile stuff, so at least they're not glorifying it. You know, chemical castration is, I think that's a fair route for the pedophile.

• 43:39Matt McCusker?

  You know, but then it's like, what the hell you do with them? What are you, what is like, that'd be a good coming of age tale. Pedophile chemically castrated, has to find himself.

• 43:46Speaker 00

  Get on the straight and narrow.

• 43:47Matt McCusker?

  Call up his friends, barbecue one on one. Yeah. Because what do you do after that? You're a pedophile. You've been shamed.

• 43:55Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 43:55Matt McCusker?

  Now you're like altered physiologically where you can't do that. You'll never do that thing ever, I would imagine. Then it's like, what do you do? You gotta just boss up in a fast food chain somewhere.

• 44:07Matt McCusker?

  The glow up would be crazy. The comeback.

• 44:09Speaker 00

  Nobel Prize. You go to college, study hard.

• 44:11Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 44:12Speaker 00

  Learn how science works.

• 44:13Matt McCusker?

  I mean.

• 44:14Speaker 00

  You invent AI.

• 44:15Matt McCusker?

  You're completely undistracted.

• 44:17Speaker 00

  You can finally fuck.

• 44:18Matt McCusker?

  Just rake your mom's leaves very efficiently forever.

• 44:23Speaker 00

  Become a curling champion.

• 44:24Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. I mean, that's gotta be crazy because that's where they go. They go, usually they live with their mom after you get a pedophile, you bust it, back to mom.

• 44:31Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 44:31Matt McCusker?

  Then your mom dies. Now you're a lone pedophile. It's gotta be a minute. If you're just you or the computer, you're like, let me just look.

• 44:38Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 44:39Matt McCusker?

  Let me just get a glimpse.

• 44:40Speaker 00

  For old times sake.

• 44:41Matt McCusker?

  Cops come immediately. Fuck.

• 44:45Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. Yeah, that'd be bad.

• 44:49Speaker 00

  Good stuff.

• 44:52Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, chemical casts fair.

• 44:54Speaker 00

  I've, I've chemically cast a couple of times.

• 44:56Matt McCusker?

  Yo, with the, with the BLs?

• 44:58Speaker 00

  Too many BLs, you go, I'm god damn it.

• 45:01Speaker 00

  Nothing's working.

• 45:02Matt McCusker?

  You're running Oklahoma drills on yourself?

• 45:05Speaker 00

  That's the Oklahoma drill.

• 45:07Matt McCusker?

  That's tricky though, because if you don't chemically castrate yourself enough, now you're super predator.

• 45:12Speaker 00

  Now you've become the ultimate.

• 45:17Matt McCusker?

  Dang, man. But yeah, that's a, that's good stuff. I didn't know they have, they set it up to where they have.

• 45:22Speaker 00

  What I gotta tell you, I don't know what the other buildings are that they couldn't leave. My friend who made my shirts who came down from Oklahoma. He went out for breakfast this morning.

• 45:30Matt McCusker?

  Piece of information that he knows.

• 45:32Speaker 00

  Well, his, his, uh, his wife works in, uh, there was a word they used that wasn't halfway house. That was a halfway house.

• 45:39Matt McCusker?

  The recovery set or a recovery house?

• 45:41Speaker 00

  Yeah. But, um, that's where I heard about it. And she had heard about it. I don't know. Again, I don't know how true it is.

• 45:47Matt McCusker?

  Pedophile recovery house.

• 45:48Speaker 00

  It feels true.

• 45:50Matt McCusker?

  Well, they do lump though. They lump. Pedophile recovery house is nuts, dude. You're all the circles being like, pretty normal day, pretty chill.

• 45:59Speaker 00

  Normal, yeah.

• 46:00Matt McCusker?

  Saw the bus the other day.

• 46:02Speaker 00

  That's a new reality show they're doing. They get 10 of them in there. And if they do fuck a child, they have to be removed from the house. And the last one.

• 46:10Matt McCusker?

  Wins.

• 46:10Speaker 00

  Know what they win. They win a trip to Thailand.

• 46:12Matt McCusker?

  That's what wins.

• 46:13Speaker 00

  Free holiday to Thailand, no questions asked. All right?

• 46:19Speaker 00

  This is my idea for a show.

• 46:20Matt McCusker?

  It's not a bad show. You hold off on the big reveal on the prize because that could turn viewers off. Because you're an investor, like I really rooting for this guy, you're like, oh, here.

• 46:28Speaker 00

  I got other ideas for show.

• 46:29Matt McCusker?

  Russell Brand has got in trouble.

• 46:31Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 46:32Speaker 01

  I think he kind of did that to himself on that one.

• 46:35Matt McCusker?

  Oh, yeah. I mean, obviously.

• 46:36Speaker 01

  Normally he's like fucking governments coming up with bullshit, trying to fuck me on this. And he goes, I fucked a 16 year old. What the fuck?

• 46:44Matt McCusker?

  A while back.

• 46:45Speaker 00

  Rap snitches.

• 46:46Matt McCusker?

  There was allegations against him a while back that he had fully been like, this is a deep state, obviously. And then I think, I think the probably just grew too hard. He's like, oh, yeah, there was that one time. He was, it was within his legal right. He was, it's, that's, that's the whole thing.

• 46:59Speaker 00

  The British were different about it, you know, until quite recently.

• 47:02Matt McCusker?

  And yeah, you could, back then you could just have sex with 16 year olds in England.

• 47:06Speaker 00

  You still can, I think.

• 47:07Matt McCusker?

  Still can, yeah.

• 47:08Speaker 00

  Shouldn't.

• 47:08Matt McCusker?

  Should and not at all.

• 47:09Speaker 00

  Frowned upon.

• 47:10Matt McCusker?

  Very frowned upon.

• 47:15Matt McCusker?

  Not mine.

• 47:19Speaker 00

  It's not mine.

• 47:20Matt McCusker?

  Is it yours?

• 47:22Speaker 01

  Yeah, it looks like it's yours.

• 47:26Matt McCusker?

  Looks like you need to produce yourself, dude.

• 47:30Speaker 00

  Yeah, you just Russell branded yourself.

• 47:31Speaker 01

  We gotta, we gotta pause anyway.

• 47:33Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 47:33Speaker 01

  I'll be right back.

  shawngardini.com. Why are you so mad at me?

• 51:10Speaker 01

  I'm not. I'm joking, dude.

• 51:12Speaker 05

  Oh.

• 51:14Matt McCusker?

  Oh, I got a, I got a funny one.

• 51:16Speaker 01

  Nice.

• 51:18Matt McCusker?

  Sean's demise. They fought, a guy attacked you. We were doing, we did the celebrity, we did the celebrity theater in Phoenix and Sean's wrapping up, you know, we're in the round. It was, it was truly just all of our skills.

• 51:30Speaker 01

  Those rule.

• 51:30Matt McCusker?

  It's fucking sick. It's harder than I thought. I was all cocky. I was like, on the round for fucking 20,000 a shame. Just unleash me. Dude, I went up there. I was like, cause Sean was just up there. He stood pretty still the entire time. And I'm like, man, he's not moving. What the fuck? That's kind of weird. And as he started like moving around towards the middle and he's doing his closer and as he's like almost done, some guy just goes, fag.

• 51:55Speaker 05

  It was from behind me too.

• 51:57Matt McCusker?

  From behind.

• 51:57Speaker 05

  On the page the other day. There was like JFK. He just blew my brain.

• 52:02Matt McCusker?

  And he was up high on the grassy knoll.

• 52:06Speaker 01

  He was up high?

• 52:07Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 52:07Speaker 01

  Sucks even more.

• 52:08Matt McCusker?

  Dude.

• 52:08Speaker 01

  It was really loud from up, yeah.

• 52:10Matt McCusker?

  He got him. Sean got, Sean got revenge for sure. But it was, it was, then I walked out there. I'm like, why he was like so tight? I'd walk up as soon as I stood up there. I was like, oh, Jesus Christ. This is kind of difficult. And it was, it was fun, but it was a lot harder.

• 52:23Speaker 01

  Yeah. First time I ever did that, I was opening with Burt and I literally just rotated in a circle to my left and then I looked down and the cord was around my feet.

• 52:31Matt McCusker?

  Dude, that's the thing. They gave you a corded mic. So the whole time I was like trying to. It was, it was fun, but I was like, god damn, that was, I kept slipping into like, I felt like I was like, at one point, I kept, to myself, I'd be like, just felt like Christopher Titus, kind of, or had to be very like, and another thing, like, if you like doubt yourself at all, and you feel like, I would just fall apart. So I had to just be like, yeah, I had to be the ultimate performer. I kept laughing at myself. I was like, dude, you're the ultimate showman right now. Cause you couldn't, you can't like, I don't know, man.

• 52:58Speaker 01

  I'm struggling with that, just in general, of like, you gotta actually start taking yourself seriously. Enough to be a performer.

• 53:08Speaker 01

  Like, these dudes helping me with the roast, writing the roast, like, Mullen is like, you gotta like, you're capable of this. Like, do this the right way. You don't have to do the whole, like, disconnected, awkward.

• 53:20Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 53:21Speaker 01

  Like, you can do this. And I'm like, alright, yeah.

• 53:23Matt McCusker?

  I got it.

• 53:23Speaker 01

  No chance. I'm gonna go up there and be like, dude, I didn't write these jokes. It's fucking weird. This one's funny, though. This is, uh, blah, blah, blah.

• 53:30Matt McCusker?

  No, you did, I thought you did good at the ESPYS. I thought that was very, it was a very clean.

• 53:34Speaker 01

  Yeah, but I was still like.

• 53:37Speaker 00

  Why, you shouldn't have to give up the, I mean, it's like going to Dean Martin and going, what if you didn't have so many drinks before you went out there tonight?

• 53:42Speaker 01

  Yeah, exactly.

• 53:43Matt McCusker?

  You know? Yeah, I, I don't think you need to switch it up.

• 53:45Speaker 00

  Dean, you don't need to be drunk.

• 53:46Matt McCusker?

  I know what you mean, though, cause when you're on, there, there is a thing, though, you're on camera and they're like, yeah, it was, I felt a similar pressure where it's just kind of just, for some reason, being around. I hadn't really, I couldn't be like, fuck, man, I don't know. I had to turn around and be like, here's another thing I'm thinking about that I, I totally believe in as a great. And the whole time I had him like, this sucks, you're retarded. And I'm like, no, be quiet. We're in the round. Titus mode right now.

• 54:08Speaker 01

  It's time.

• 54:09Matt McCusker?

  I don't know.

• 54:09Speaker 00

  Big Jay just sits on a chair and goes, sixty percent of you won't be looking at me. He doesn't mention it.

• 54:14Matt McCusker?

  I would have a fucking panic attack, dude.

• 54:17Speaker 00

  I still believe in the lazy Susan. I think that would be good. I think the show, I think you should stand still and the stage should slowly.

• 54:22Matt McCusker?

  That stage does, does revolve, but it didn't, it wasn't on for mine.

• 54:26Speaker 01

  It does for bands, yeah. Be so sick dude.

• 54:29Matt McCusker?

  That's the one thing too. When I was in there, I was like, I just wanna play music so bad. I wish I could just play music in this place. It'd be awesome.

• 54:35Speaker 01

  Yeah, music would be so much better.

• 54:36Matt McCusker?

  Oh, the celebrity theater.

• 54:37Speaker 01

  Go onstage at Zach Bryan's and sing a song.

• 54:39Matt McCusker?

  That's awesome.

• 54:40Speaker 01

  Singing Lawyers, Guns and Money.

• 54:41Matt McCusker?

  How awesome did that feel?

• 54:42Speaker 01

  It was fucking sick.

• 54:43Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that shit rules.

• 54:44Speaker 01

  It was awesome.

• 54:44Matt McCusker?

  Best fee, the whole time, when you're like doing that, you're, you're just the whole time like, this is awesome. Just hitting people with like dumb ideas about like, vaginas are weird. You guys cool over there? Alright, everyone on board? Let's go. I'm professional.

• 54:59Speaker 01

  Especially in the round, when you turn around, you realize everyone's kinda checked out a little.

• 55:04Matt McCusker?

  Yep.

• 55:04Speaker 01

  Like, when you turn back around, that's when people get, it's funny because they're being polite, I guess. Because they don't get up to go to the bathroom when you're facing them.

• 55:11Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 55:11Speaker 01

  So like, I'll turn around, people be like, oh.

• 55:15Speaker 01

  It's like a teacher.

• 55:18Matt McCusker?

  There was one kid.

• 55:19Speaker 01

  Sit back down, get off your phone.

• 55:23Matt McCusker?

  There was one kid who every time I would turn in his direction, he would be like, he was completely spread out and his, and I was just like, every time I look at him, I'm like, fucking punk. God damn it. And then he laughed really hard at one thing. I was like, oh god, I got him. He's cool, he's cool. Alright, that guy's great.

• 55:35Speaker 01

  The round is nice though, when people are yelling.

• 55:37Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, there was.

• 55:38Speaker 01

  Somebody yells, I go, alright, fuck that corner, I'm never going back.

• 55:41Matt McCusker?

  Punished?

• 55:41Speaker 01

  Yep, now you're on timeout.

• 55:42Matt McCusker?

  That was the other thing too, they were, it was the rowdiest crowd I'd had in a long, so the whole time, they'd just be like, ah, ah, ah. And it was just like, you, this is not the place for this, guys. Behave yourselves, please. But it was, it was very fun. I had a good time. But I really, I was like, dude, that was, it was difficult. It was so hard. It was like genuinely difficult. I was, you know. So I, my XP points, I got four XP points. I got done, I was like, alright, I got, I leveled out for sure.

• 56:07Speaker 01

  Nice.

• 56:08Matt McCusker?

  And then I went to Tucson, it always happens to me, I'm like, I'm going to Tucson right after this, or I'm about to crush. Literally had a panic attack onstage. I had to just completely just kind of sub-quell within myself, like, yeah dude, I don't know, man. I told you guys I'm married. I'm like, fuck dude, it's, it happens like every 10th time. I'll have a point where I'm like seven minutes in, I go like, would it be weird if I took a break for five minutes and came back? And I'm like, yes, extremely, knock this off right now. And then it just goes away and it's always a huge relief. I'm like, alright, cool. Just completely absorbed in whatever that is.

• 56:39Speaker 01

  A break would be.

• 56:42Speaker 01

  Nuts, but while you're out there, it feels so good.

• 56:45Matt McCusker?

  No, dude.

• 56:46Speaker 01

  Fellas, I'll be right back. Everybody in 10 minutes. Grab a drink.

• 56:49Matt McCusker?

  I'm gonna go take deep breaths. I'm gonna do box breathing outside. I'll be right back.

• 56:53Speaker 01

  And I definitely am not coming back. You're never gonna get me back on stage. I'm getting in a car right now.

• 56:59Matt McCusker?

  I might work it as a bit and just be like, ah, I was fucking around. It was my whole panic attack bit. I'm back. I stayed around last night. You guys should saw me. I was like, Titus out there. It was crazy.

• 57:07Speaker 01

  Yeah. It could be a fun way to end a show. We're gonna take a quick intermission. I'll be right back and just sprint. Sprint out of this.

• 57:15Speaker 00

  Oh, you're building in. You're building in. You say goodnight early when you wanna go. And then because not enough shows happen, that's where you get your standing ovation. That's where you get your little break. And then you get your encore. You get your encore final.

• 57:27Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, but I'm like nine minutes in.

• 57:28Speaker 00

  No, that means that you're really gonna get that encore. You're gonna build eight or nine encores into the show. You just keep getting to go off, have a think about it and come back.

• 57:36Matt McCusker?

  That's nice. But guys, that's it for me. Thank you. Alright, I'll come back.

• 57:40Speaker 01

  It would not work in comedy.

• 57:42Speaker 00

  No, well, you gotta train the audience. People gotta learn. We don't give them the round of applause to show.

• 57:46Speaker 01

  There would never be an encore, so everyone would just start. They would riot. If I did 10 minutes.

• 57:52Speaker 00

  You gotta get the word out. You gotta get the word out that it's gonna be encore time, alright? People have to know. It's like the opera. You know there's gonna be a symphony. You gotta, you gotta teach the audience to encore.

• 58:02Matt McCusker?

  True, true.

• 58:03Speaker 00

  It's not fair that we don't get the encore.

• 58:06Matt McCusker?

  No, when I'm done, I'm so like, yes.

• 58:08Speaker 01

  I'm so happy to get off.

• 58:10Speaker 00

  Now, but not if it's after 15 minutes.

• 58:12Matt McCusker?

  Going back out with another.

• 58:13Speaker 00

  It's my plan.

• 58:14Matt McCusker?

  That'd be nice. You could do a little, you could do a little encore, but man, it's been, I don't know what that does to my body when I just, when I'm like having, and it's just the physical symptoms. I'll be like, oh, what the fuck's that? And I go, oh, great. I know what that is. And I go, anyway, guys. And I'm going, mm, gonna fucking pass out. This isn't good. This isn't good. And I just go, no. And then my body just slowly comes back. And I'm like, that is some kind of cancer.

• 58:35Speaker 00

  You were wearing the ring that was telling how you would, like, what's it called? The physical ring?

• 58:40Matt McCusker?

  The aura ring.

• 58:41Speaker 00

  But then I said, what's it like when you're on stage? And you said, I take it off. I don't wanna know.

• 58:45Matt McCusker?

  Well, you know what I wore?

• 58:46Speaker 00

  You're throwing your heart right through the head. You're like, it would scare me.

• 58:48Matt McCusker?

  I wore it one time. I did it for a whole hour. I was curious. I wonder what my body's up to. You know what's funny? It started out like the highest stress possible and by the end I'm at like completely restored and peaceful. Really, because I'm like so probably relieved.

• 59:00Speaker 01

  You're in the pocket.

• 59:01Matt McCusker?

  Once I get the first 15 minutes, I'm good.

• 59:03Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 59:04Matt McCusker?

  But if I start like, if something happens in that first 15 minutes where I'll go like, dude, I think you skipped a giant chunk of material. And I go, what is it? I don't know.

• 59:12Speaker 01

  I don't remember it, but I know I did.

• 59:13Matt McCusker?

  Dude, you're gonna finish with like, you're gonna be done with like 27 minutes left and you're gonna be fucked. And I'm like, no, I'm not. Stop. Come on. Can I take a break?

• 59:23Speaker 01

  I wish I had that heart monitor for that Chicago Friday night with the audio.

• 59:28Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 59:29Speaker 01

  You were seeing spikes, cortisol spikes through the fucking roof, dude. Anytime there was reverb, I was just like, what the, how could this be happening?

• 59:38Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that was.

• 59:39Speaker 01

  Who did this?

• 59:40Matt McCusker?

  That's fucking brutal because then you're like, well, maybe it doesn't sound so bad in the crowd. That was the other thing up on stage. All you could hear is there's speakers all around you. So it's just your voice echoing in your head and you're just like, please make that stop. Please, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard anyone say and it's me.

• 59:54Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 59:55Matt McCusker?

  And it's coming around from 360 degrees. Stop.

• 59:59Speaker 01

  Yeah, that happens.

• 1:00:01Matt McCusker?

  But yeah, that's, I was, I was happy to champ that. Every time I walk in cocky, I go like, it was so funny walking up and being like, these guys have no idea. I'm a veteran of the round. And I just walked up and was like, oh shit, this is crazy. Fuck, what the fuck, dude? Fuck, man. And I would start a joke here and end it over here. And I'm like, fuck, you guys probably weren't paying attention to the first part. Shit.

• 1:00:23Speaker 01

  That, uh, that happens.

• 1:00:26Speaker 00

  Just takes you back to the first, it's the equivalent of, man, these lights are bright up here. This microphone's pretty loud. That's like the first time I had sex.

• 1:00:35Speaker 00

  It's very unnatural.

• 1:00:36Matt McCusker?

  It gets me every time, but no.

• 1:00:38Speaker 01

  These bros were at the show in Nashville and they're like, how do you like, do you get nervous? Do you, how do you go out there? And I was like, I literally, I can't think about it. If I take one, before the show, if I'm in the green room at all and I'm like, fuck, there's 20,000 people and I'm just gonna have to stand there and the entire night depends on if I do good. Or I've just wasted all these people's time and money. It's the most people ever that anybody's done this and I'm just gonna stand there by myself.

• 1:01:04Matt McCusker?

  I mean, you've literally affected traffic patterns in the city.

• 1:01:07Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:01:07Matt McCusker?

  Like the city has been altered. The whole, there's so much.

• 1:01:10Speaker 01

  Economy of the city, like the local bars.

• 1:01:17Speaker 01

  Philly's gonna be.

• 1:01:18Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that's gonna be wild. When I open for you, I don't, it's because I whenever if I'm doing something for someone else, typically it's just like, there's not even room for like anything. Yeah. Cause I'm like, this is great. I can't fuck this up, but it's for myself. I'm like, oh no, dude, this sucks. But yeah, it's a, that's gonna be fun.

• 1:01:35Speaker 01

  Thankfully the roast is there to break up the panic attacks.

• 1:01:38Matt McCusker?

  True.

• 1:01:39Speaker 01

  So I'll be focused on freaking out about that.

• 1:01:41Matt McCusker?

  Be panicking about that. That's, that's a nice reprieve. But now look, the link's gonna be sick. That will be tight.

• 1:01:47Speaker 01

  The link is gonna be, but every single person in Philly, if I go to, if like I was in Philly last year, every single person's like, I'll see you in July, dude. It's gonna be, I'm like.

• 1:01:56Speaker 00

  Is it the football stadium gig that you're doing? What is the capacity?

• 1:02:00Speaker 01

  It'll be like.

• 1:02:01Speaker 00

  A hundred thousand?

• 1:02:02Speaker 01

  No, it'll be close to 80. It'll be the all time record at the stadium.

• 1:02:08Matt McCusker?

  Cause it's the round as well. Yeah, obviously.

• 1:02:10Speaker 01

  For any event.

• 1:02:13Speaker 01

  Hopefully.

• 1:02:15Speaker 00

  Hopefully it goes well. You'll have a great time.

• 1:02:17Speaker 01

  It's gonna suck.

• 1:02:18Speaker 00

  Sounds like a good way to ruin every day in the lead up to that gig. Yeah.

• 1:02:22Speaker 01

  Yeah. Every day until July 17th, I'll be, I'll be staring at those Rens.

• 1:02:28Matt McCusker?

  True.

• 1:02:29Speaker 01

  Now that's nice. Those guys.

• 1:02:31Matt McCusker?

  Dear God, make me a bird and take me fly far, far away.

• 1:02:35Speaker 01

  Please, I wish I could be one of those fucking Rens.

• 1:02:38Matt McCusker?

  You know what I was thinking about today? I saw, I saw a, I guess it's a crow. What are those birds at the airport? That just fucking scream at you?

• 1:02:43Speaker 01

  Oh, those are like Austin.

• 1:02:46Matt McCusker?

  Grackles, dude. I love those.

• 1:02:47Speaker 01

  They are funny though.

• 1:02:48Matt McCusker?

  I fucking love, dude, I was, we was driving, I had to go to like PTA meetings this morning. So we're like driving on the highway. Saw a grackle just chilling on like, we're like this homeless guy usually chills. And I saw he like.

• 1:02:58Speaker 00

  He became a grackle?

• 1:02:59Matt McCusker?

  I think he did. He floated down, this thing like floated down so lightly and landed on this little like metal thing on the highway or like where you get on the off ramp. And it was just like picking crumbs out of cigarette butts. And I was like, how crazy to be a bird, just be flying like this celestial being. And then you have to just land a fucking wicked earth and you're just like picking crumbs out of shit. Then you fly again beautifully.

• 1:03:23Speaker 01

  I saw, as soon as I landed in Austin, I saw two of them bathing in a puddle on the road. It was disgusting. Just dirt water.

• 1:03:32Matt McCusker?

  Dude, moments ago, they're soaring majestically.

• 1:03:35Speaker 01

  There's nothing majestic about those. Those things blow, dude. They are some of the shittiest birds.

• 1:03:41Matt McCusker?

  I love them so much.

• 1:03:42Speaker 01

  They're funny.

• 1:03:42Matt McCusker?

  They are really funny.

• 1:03:44Speaker 01

  They just scream. They have no fear of people. We, they're just like mean pigeons.

• 1:03:48Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:03:49Speaker 00

  We got a new bird in Australia called the, it's the noisy Indian miner. And they're an invasive species from India. And they're these loud, I know, I know. They're these loud Indian birds that everyone goes, you gotta kill them. But we don't have guns and we don't have BB guns. So you gotta find creative ways.

• 1:04:06Matt McCusker?

  You guys can't have BB guns?

• 1:04:07Speaker 00

  No, you can't have a BB gun.

• 1:04:08Matt McCusker?

  What?

• 1:04:08Speaker 00

  But this is the, all the bird people used to work for a bird charity and everything's like, we love birds. We gotta protect birds. And then they'd be like, the Indian bird, fucking kill that bird. If you find that bird, you kill that bird.

• 1:04:17Matt McCusker?

  You guys aren't even allowed to have BB guns?

• 1:04:19Speaker 01

  What, does the government say you're gonna shoot your eye out?

• 1:04:23Speaker 00

  The government says it's gonna get lodged in your hand.

• 1:04:25Speaker 01

  I wanna red ride a BB gun. No.

• 1:04:30Speaker 00

  It's one of the many problems we're encountering.

• 1:04:32Matt McCusker?

  So what's the Indian bird?

• 1:04:33Speaker 01

  There's no way you guys are not allowed to have BB guns.

• 1:04:35Matt McCusker?

  What about in the outback, dude? What if you live in the fucking outback?

• 1:04:38Speaker 00

  I've never seen a BB gun in Australia.

• 1:04:39Matt McCusker?

  What?

• 1:04:40Speaker 01

  Okay, wait, you've never seen it?

• 1:04:41Speaker 00

  I don't believe we're allowed to have them.

• 1:04:42Speaker 01

  You must not be, because if you were allowed, I feel like, yeah, that's actually probably a good rule. Australians should not have.

• 1:04:47Matt McCusker?

  All that white trash DNA and no BBs, that's crazy, dude.

• 1:04:50Speaker 01

  Dude, there's nothing better than your older cousin being like, dude. Check this shit out. I'm so scared of that. I don't even wanna hold that. I'm too scared.

• 1:05:00Matt McCusker?

  I remember someone, I remember like pump action. Are they allowed to have them?

• 1:05:04Speaker 01

  They have to be allowed to have toy guns.

• 1:05:05Speaker 05

  They're not, this, it says they're just highly regulated and treated, classified as firearms.

• 1:05:11Matt McCusker?

  I got my BB permit.

• 1:05:12Speaker 00

  You gotta have a license for a BB gun.

• 1:05:14Speaker 05

  That's what it seems like, yeah. You need a proper license and registration.

• 1:05:19Matt McCusker?

  What?

• 1:05:19Speaker 05

  Or else it's a criminal offense.

• 1:05:21Speaker 01

  How are the bin chickens doing?

• 1:05:23Matt McCusker?

  I like those guys.

• 1:05:23Speaker 01

  We like those.

• 1:05:24Matt McCusker?

  So big.

• 1:05:25Speaker 01

  Tourists taking pictures of them. We look like fucking morons.

• 1:05:28Speaker 00

  There was a Vietnamese guy who was killing them.

• 1:05:30Speaker 01

  I knew, I knew we were gonna, yeah.

• 1:05:31Speaker 00

  Do you know this story?

• 1:05:32Speaker 01

  No.

• 1:05:32Speaker 00

  Oh, it was, this was a story on the news a while ago in Sydney. A guy was like killing them and eating them and he got in trouble and he was like a Vietnamese guy and he was going, you're allowed to do it back home. And then later on the news story, they're like, you're allowed to do it back home in the state north of, in Queensland, you're allowed to do it. Everyone thought he meant Vietnam, odd Vietnamese man just killing street birds, but he meant Queensland. Anyway, it was fun.

• 1:05:52Speaker 01

  Do you get to eat them in Queensland?

• 1:05:54Speaker 00

  In Queensland, apparently you can eat them.

• 1:05:55Speaker 01

  That's nice.

• 1:05:56Speaker 00

  They're big.

• 1:05:57Matt McCusker?

  What do these Indian birds do?

• 1:05:59Speaker 00

  Indian, they just squawk and they, they're invasive. They push the other birds out and they work in groups. There's about 15 of them bullying our sweet native local birds.

• 1:06:07Matt McCusker?

  No.

• 1:06:08Speaker 01

  Damn.

• 1:06:11Speaker 01

  It's really funny.

• 1:06:13Speaker 00

  You know, just a big gang of the Indian miners will swoop down on a beautiful.

• 1:06:17Speaker 01

  The gang mate.

• 1:06:18Speaker 00

  Lonely Australian bird. You know, on a bus or something.

• 1:06:22Matt McCusker?

  Dang, that's crazy.

• 1:06:23Speaker 00

  It's not right.

• 1:06:24Speaker 04

  I was just listening to it make bird sounds for like two minutes. It just sounds like a regular bird. Like the, the Indian.

• 1:06:31Speaker 00

  Indian bird. Yeah.

• 1:06:33Speaker 04

  Yeah, it just sounds like a regular bird. I think this is a.

• 1:06:35Matt McCusker?

  Well, how, how versed are you on?

• 1:06:36Speaker 01

  You're pro, you're pro.

• 1:06:37Speaker 04

  I love bird noises, dude.

• 1:06:39Speaker 00

  Uh, they get rid of our big, we got big, beautiful, strange birds that they drive them out.

• 1:06:42Matt McCusker?

  You have some wild shit down there.

• 1:06:43Speaker 00

  Cockatoos, we got Cuckaburra.

• 1:06:45Matt McCusker?

  Cuckaburra's a nice.

• 1:06:46Speaker 01

  If they touch the Cuckaburra, I'm gonna be.

• 1:06:48Speaker 00

  We got what?

• 1:06:49Speaker 04

  Birds of paradise, rifle birds.

• 1:06:51Speaker 00

  So we got the cassowary, they're very scary. They kill British people every now and again.

• 1:06:55Speaker 01

  Those are scary.

• 1:06:56Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. What is, so what does the Cuckaburra do again? I know it does.

• 1:06:59Speaker 00

  It sits in the old gum tree, very, very king of the bushes.

• 1:07:01Speaker 01

  It just laughs at you.

• 1:07:02Matt McCusker?

  Just laughs at you.

• 1:07:03Speaker 00

  Cuckaburra laugh, Cuckaburra gay, your life must be. It's that song.

• 1:07:07Matt McCusker?

  You'll be, you'll be birded out. We, I mean, we gotta clamber up, man. We gotta at least inspect the site.

• 1:07:13Speaker 01

  I would love nothing more than for us to install it and I'll share the app with you. You can also have the bird watching app and we can stare at them together because we'll both get the notifications.

• 1:07:23Speaker 01

  And I'll go out there at night sometimes.

• 1:07:24Speaker 00

  That's what the Patreon is.

• 1:07:25Speaker 01

  Just to give you a notification.

• 1:07:27Speaker 00

  Patreon is a live bird feed now.

• 1:07:29Speaker 01

  I would love that.

• 1:07:30Speaker 00

  The bird feed. Yeah. It's a feed.

• 1:07:33Speaker 01

  Yeah, bird feed. I like that. That's good.

• 1:07:36Speaker 00

  You're gonna have to pay me for this.

• 1:07:37Speaker 01

  Maybe we can tweet the, hey, maybe we can tweet the bird feed too. Hey, Matt. Now, so you guys see how much better this is than our, uh, pedophile thirty minute show? Talking birds. That's fun.

• 1:07:49Speaker 00

  I'd forgot all about it.

• 1:07:50Speaker 01

  And we managed to make the bird thing racist, which I like.

• 1:07:56Speaker 01

  And of course, La Mer defended the fucking invasive species. You're an invasive species.

• 1:08:08Speaker 01

  What do you guys have to say?

• 1:08:10Speaker 04

  It just seems like a nice, regular bird. That's all I'm saying.

• 1:08:13Speaker 01

  Get them out. Lock them up.

• 1:08:17Speaker 01

  Kill, having to be, like, having to kill, like, a bird for your government would be kinda chill. Oh, god damn it, I'm the dumbest guy ever. What? Uh, my car that got destroyed. They're like, do you have anything in here? I was like, no. It's got my social security, birth certificate. Every single thing I own is.

• 1:08:33Speaker 00

  Has it been made into a cube now?

• 1:08:35Speaker 01

  Don't worry about it.

• 1:08:38Speaker 01

  Cause I had to get my driver's license.

• 1:08:41Speaker 01

  Damn, someone could just steal your identity.

• 1:08:44Speaker 01

  You're gonna walk, go up to the fucking link, some guys, and be like, hey, guys, anyway, like, no! He's just crushing. You're like, get him off! Damn, this guy's good.

• 1:08:55Speaker 01

  Just murdering. He's got a new twenty, you're like, fuck.

• 1:08:59Speaker 00

  Huh?

• 1:09:00Speaker 01

  Turns out all you do need is a Trump impression.

• 1:09:04Speaker 00

  You are in a weird position of getting to pick the car now. It's a huge identity moment.

• 1:09:10Speaker 01

  I know, and I don't know what car to pick.

• 1:09:11Speaker 00

  I think you get one of those Houston low ones with the big spikes coming out of the side of the wheels. You really surprise people.

• 1:09:17Speaker 01

  I can't do that.

• 1:09:19Speaker 00

  Why not?

• 1:09:19Speaker 01

  It's crazy.

• 1:09:20Speaker 00

  It's time. It's time.

• 1:09:22Speaker 01

  See much attention. That'd be, you gotta go sleek. Very sleek. You know what I mean? I liked my car. That was, that was a nice car for you.

• 1:09:31Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I'm in, I'm in the, my, my CRV is still rocking. So I gotta like, I'm gonna ride it out, but I got every car I pick, everyone's like, that's the gayest thing ever. Jeep Gladiator, thought Jeep Gladiator could be a cool girl dad car.

• 1:09:43Speaker 01

  I thought I could get a cool car. And somebody was like, it's for real so gay. It's like, all right, well then you tell me what the fuck it is. They're like, get a, get a Raptor. It's like, I'm not driving a fucking Raptor.

• 1:09:53Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:09:53Speaker 01

  I don't.

• 1:09:54Matt McCusker?

  You're not a pickup truck guy. SUV, I've seen you drive a Suburban.

• 1:09:57Speaker 01

  SUVs are nice.

• 1:09:57Matt McCusker?

  You're nice in the SUV. I've, I've been driving trucks everywhere. When I drive for any show, I rent trucks to go from city to city.

• 1:10:03Speaker 01

  That's exciting.

• 1:10:04Matt McCusker?

  It's been kind of fun. It's been driving every new pickup truck to see which one I like, but.

• 1:10:07Speaker 00

  The people, I'm back in a people mode. I'm back in a minivan.

• 1:10:10Matt McCusker?

  Back.

• 1:10:11Speaker 00

  Two thousand, Japanese Toyota, beautiful fabric seats. It's got a V six engine in it.

• 1:10:16Speaker 01

  I've looked at the retro.

• 1:10:18Speaker 00

  It's nice.

• 1:10:19Matt McCusker?

  Well, everyone's saying, don't buy a new car. Everyone, everyone who's like a hardcore car guy is like, don't buy anything new right now. Get like in something old. That, you know, it's been made like 10 years ago and just, I don't know why. I don't know. I don't, I wish I knew about cars. My brother almost convinced me to do a Cybertruck. It's so easy to, I was like, yeah, I'll just do that. Is there a 0% interest right now?

• 1:10:38Speaker 01

  I'd like that.

• 1:10:38Matt McCusker?

  That's nice.

• 1:10:39Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:10:39Speaker 00

  You have the Land Cruiser?

• 1:10:41Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's nice. 1997.

• 1:10:43Matt McCusker?

  That's cool.

• 1:10:45Speaker 00

  I mean, you probably, you're connected enough.

• 1:10:46Matt McCusker?

  That's nice.

• 1:10:47Speaker 00

  You could get the Waymo things on. You could buy whatever car you want.

• 1:10:50Speaker 01

  I should just get a Waymo?

• 1:10:51Speaker 00

  Buy your own Waymo. Then you can drink and drive anytime.

• 1:10:54Matt McCusker?

  James, you're on to something about that.

• 1:10:56Speaker 00

  You're one of the only people in the world who might be able to get on the phone to the Waymo Corporation and say, I should have the world's first private Waymo.

• 1:11:03Matt McCusker?

  That would be, I, dude, I honestly love.

• 1:11:05Speaker 01

  Just everywhere I go, everyone's fucking with the car.

• 1:11:09Matt McCusker?

  Also no highway travel at all.

• 1:11:11Speaker 01

  Drinking and driving the whole time. Just like, you wanna fuck with me? Just fucking losing my mind every trip.

• 1:11:20Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I, I was gonna do a Waymo to meet my kid somewhere and it was like, it was like a 20 minute drive. I'm like, I'll get him to Waymo. It was like an hour and 20 minutes. I was like, all right, let me just, maybe.

• 1:11:28Speaker 00

  You custom fit your own Waymo. You get a bed put in there. You just get to lie down, go to sleep.

• 1:11:33Speaker 01

  I would like to lay down more.

• 1:11:35Speaker 00

  Yeah. This is my idea. This is what I think Waymo should be doing.

• 1:11:39Speaker 01

  Like have not stood up for a day.

• 1:11:41Speaker 00

  Dude, instead of flying, you fly for an hour and a half, you get to the new city. This is my idea. Beautiful bed in a Waymo. You just go to sleep. Drives you to the city. You wake up eight hours later. Hey.

• 1:11:51Matt McCusker?

  Between the plane and Waymo, you could have a segue where you just kind of get tied to it and just.

• 1:11:57Speaker 01

  Sleep on that fucking just takes you to.

• 1:12:00Speaker 00

  I think I'm just inventing paraplegia. That's what I'm going for.

• 1:12:03Matt McCusker?

  Big guy sleeping on a horse just tied to the saddle.

• 1:12:06Speaker 01

  That'd be a fun thing. We should start getting the heroin people on segways. Hit them that they hit that fucking lean forward. That thing's going 90 miles an hour.

• 1:12:18Matt McCusker?

  Their noses are like right over the ground.

• 1:12:23Matt McCusker?

  That'd be nice though. To be like, all right, put them on segways and just point them north and be like, yeah.

• 1:12:27Speaker 01

  Go on.

• 1:12:29Speaker 01

  Go on, get.

• 1:12:31Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's the thing. Yeah. Austin is just those fucking shitty birds and homeless people. Those two, I've always seen them together.

• 1:12:37Matt McCusker?

  That's a very.

• 1:12:38Speaker 01

  They have a very symbiotic relationship.

• 1:12:40Matt McCusker?

  They do. They do. They do. That that bird was just eating like homeless crumbs. Basically, I was watching it just pick at just like weird shit.

• 1:12:46Speaker 00

  Like their elephants.

• 1:12:47Matt McCusker?

  The what?

• 1:12:48Speaker 00

  Like their elephants, like the birds are on them.

• 1:12:50Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, cleaning their teeth.

• 1:12:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's good.

• 1:12:55Matt McCusker?

  That's why they're screaming at the airport. They're just picking little particles out of their teeth and like.

• 1:13:01Speaker 00

  It's so weird. It's weird to see it again. We have, we don't have crack in Australia. We just have methamphetamine. It's a slightly different.

• 1:13:09Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:13:09Speaker 00

  Homeless person.

• 1:13:10Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. For, yeah, it's way more.

• 1:13:11Speaker 00

  Crack people are a little more, they're in a fantasy land slightly more. There's, there's the mood is improved. And I don't know, there's a spirit of joy about it, but the meth people, it's just sheer.

• 1:13:21Speaker 01

  Couldn't disagree more.

• 1:13:21Speaker 00

  No, meth people are spooky, I find.

• 1:13:24Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, they're more like politically tapped.

• 1:13:25Speaker 00

  More ready to have violence, more ready to question your ideas.

• 1:13:28Speaker 01

  Yeah, I'm not saying, I'm saying the, the people, the people in Austin are fucking evil. I've never walked by a fucking homeless guy. I mean, like he's having a good time. They're literally having audible arguments.

• 1:13:39Speaker 00

  There's a theater about, like that woman who wears caution tape instead of clothing. You know, she's having an experience she's doing.

• 1:13:45Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:13:46Speaker 01

  I don't know if I've seen her.

• 1:13:47Matt McCusker?

  They're funnier.

• 1:13:48Speaker 00

  Oh, you'll see her when you see her.

• 1:13:49Matt McCusker?

  Crack people are funnier. Remember the street joke guy in Philly who would come up like, I got a joke for you guys?

• 1:13:53Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 1:13:53Matt McCusker?

  That was, that's meth.

• 1:13:54Speaker 01

  I don't see them here.

• 1:13:56Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:13:56Speaker 01

  I don't see the crack homeless people here. I see the angry.

• 1:14:00Matt McCusker?

  That's more of a Philly thing. You're right.

• 1:14:02Speaker 01

  Lot of angry homeless.

• 1:14:03Matt McCusker?

  Meth is pretty big here too now though. Meth made, meth kinda like piggybacked heroin cities pretty hard where it would kinda like come in and a lot of the heroin guys got into meth as well. Jet's a bad one. Meth is the worst. Phoenix is meth city, dude.

• 1:14:15Speaker 01

  Yeah, Phoenix is.

• 1:14:15Matt McCusker?

  Phoenix was bad. Me and Nate saw fucking, or me and Sean saw needles on the ground, walking around. I was like.

• 1:14:20Speaker 00

  I don't wanna, I don't wanna make everything about Oklahoma, but last time I was in Oklahoma, they'd cut the, uh, when you go to fill up your tire, like someone had a flat tire and you go to do that, and they cut the, the tip off at the gas station that you used. But it's called the needle.

• 1:14:34Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:14:34Speaker 00

  And they said they cut the needles off for drugs and I thought they were using, they were like fucking jamming that into their arms, but they use it like a pipe. It's a perfect pipe, so that they just don't have them, uh,

• 1:14:44Speaker 00

  that you can't fill your tire up in Oklahoma.

• 1:14:46Matt McCusker?

  Should've pissed me off.

• 1:14:47Speaker 00

  It's not right.

• 1:14:47Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:14:48Matt McCusker?

  That would piss me off. But yeah, meth, I would agree. Meth is, I think one of the, if I had moved with city, I got to pick the drug everyone's on.

• 1:14:54Speaker 00

  Heroin.

• 1:14:54Matt McCusker?

  Meth is, heroin's pretty chill.

• 1:14:56Speaker 00

  I'd pick heroin for sure.

• 1:14:57Speaker 01

  Heroin, yeah. Just lay down.

• 1:14:59Matt McCusker?

  Heroin's.

• 1:14:59Speaker 00

  Meth would be the worst, you think?

• 1:15:01Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I think so. Cause they get like real, you know, it's a very like, I gotta do this thing now.

• 1:15:07Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 1:15:08Matt McCusker?

  Kinda drug.

• 1:15:09Speaker 00

  Is the head moves differently. We got a lot, we're still, Australia only got really, heroin's gone away and meth is, but it's the, the head moves like this and people get skinny and.

• 1:15:18Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:15:19Speaker 00

  Sweating and the.

• 1:15:21Matt McCusker?

  I'd be a rough.

• 1:15:21Speaker 00

  I'm back on public transport and I'm seeing it. It's, um, our buses are not as spooky as yours, but they're still, that's why it's weird when you get one. No, I'm done. No comment. You're doing the, you're doing the smile.

• 1:15:32Matt McCusker?

  Can you, can you do a takeout now? Is Australia still anti take, like take it away food from the restaurant kinda thing?

• 1:15:38Speaker 00

  Uh, yeah, food poisoning, we, sometimes we're disagreeable about it. Yeah.

• 1:15:43Matt McCusker?

  I remember we tried to take, we tried to take our food. They're like, you guys can't have that. I was like, what?

• 1:15:47Speaker 00

  I've convinced neither of you to come back for a show.

• 1:15:50Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I'm not. It's the flight. I liked Australia at the flight. I, it's just brutal, bro. I don't know how you just bouncing back and forth. Huh?

• 1:15:57Speaker 00

  14 lovely hours. I had a great time. I watched Succession for the first time.

• 1:16:00Matt McCusker?

  That's nice.

• 1:16:01Speaker 00

  It's pretty good.

• 1:16:02Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:16:03Speaker 00

  I'll never watch, I watched the.

• 1:16:06Speaker 00

  I watched season four. I'd never watched any other season.

• 1:16:08Matt McCusker?

  Oh, no. That's like the worst way to watch it. It's so good.

• 1:16:12Speaker 00

  I could tell it was beautiful. I got the picture.

• 1:16:14Speaker 01

  Yeah, they go, we're gonna do it. It's time for us to take the company.

• 1:16:18Speaker 00

  No, they all suck. They're all weak.

• 1:16:19Speaker 01

  Same thing as season one.

• 1:16:21Speaker 00

  The episode where he goes, you're not serious people. And I thought, I've said that before. I've said that to people.

• 1:16:24Matt McCusker?

  I like when, I don't know what season it is, when the old man goes to the like liberal news station, he goes, thank you for welcoming, welcoming us Romans into your Greek, amongst your Greek city. It was just a funny, weird, rich guy thing to say. Remember, I had no idea what he was talking about. I'm like, damn, that sounds so cool.

• 1:16:40Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's awesome.

• 1:16:40Matt McCusker?

  Wish I now, now that I've studied Rome, I know what he's talking about.

• 1:16:43Speaker 01

  Speaking of.

• 1:16:44Matt McCusker?

  Dude, I, um.

• 1:16:45Speaker 01

  You think it's time for the Patreon?

• 1:16:47Matt McCusker?

  We, I have to, we're gonna do it this week. We already did, we did the page this week. Next week, we're gonna have a, dude, I have 19 pages of notes typed about the fall of Rome, just like the beginning of Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon, why he did it, what's the foundational myths of Rome, what shaped the Roman citizens' identity.

• 1:17:05Speaker 00

  I wish I could be here for that. It's my, it's my degree.

• 1:17:06Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, you were fucking, you minor, I didn't know you had a minor in class.

• 1:17:09Speaker 00

  It's my degree, but also at some point, I want to put pressure, I'm happy to do it publicly, that the Civil War podcast is yet to happen.

• 1:17:14Speaker 01

  All right, I'll do it. Just.

• 1:17:15Speaker 00

  You'll do it? Do you want to do it now? Do you want to do it?

• 1:17:17Speaker 01

  Give me a minute. I am, I'm thinking about little Sherman and Grant podcast episode.

• 1:17:23Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 1:17:24Speaker 01

  Discuss Sherman and Grant. See what they were up to.

• 1:17:27Speaker 00

  You don't want to start with the cause? You could rattle off the top of your head, causes of the War of Northern Aggression.

• 1:17:32Speaker 01

  Oh, brother. Oh, brother.

• 1:17:36Speaker 00

  You've got an hour in you for that.

• 1:17:38Speaker 01

  Maybe.

• 1:17:40Speaker 01

  Blacks.

• 1:17:41Speaker 00

  It was a dog. Industrialization, the forest of industrialization.

• 1:17:47Speaker 01

  I'm all right with that. Yeah, we could, I'll do that.

• 1:17:50Matt McCusker?

  It's nice. It'd be nice just to, we can just start researching stuff.

• 1:17:54Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:17:54Speaker 00

  It's time.

• 1:17:55Speaker 01

  Sherman, Sherman and Grant are the bros. It's time for you guys, Nate, it's time for you to learn about Sherman and Grant.

• 1:18:02Matt McCusker?

  Both or south?

• 1:18:04Speaker 01

  These are northern guys.

• 1:18:05Matt McCusker?

  Okay.

• 1:18:05Speaker 01

  Ulysses S. Grant.

• 1:18:06Matt McCusker?

  Okay, I'm all in.

• 1:18:07Speaker 01

  William Tecumseh Sherman.

• 1:18:09Matt McCusker?

  I'm in.

• 1:18:11Speaker 01

  Anyway.

• 1:18:13Speaker 01

  That should be it, huh?

• 1:18:14Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, I think we did it.

• 1:18:15Speaker 01

  Great job.

• 1:18:16Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, we teased, we teased some futures, a bit of a CTA, you know, a little CTA mix in there, nice. That's what it's all about.

• 1:18:23Speaker 01

  Good to see you, John.

• 1:18:24Speaker 00

  Thank you for having me.

• 1:18:24Matt McCusker?

  Thank you, man.

• 1:18:25Speaker 00

  Stoked on you. Said that I had to go away almost immediately.

• 1:18:29Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, but dude, we'll reunite in Canada. How cool is that?

• 1:18:31Speaker 00

  We'll be together in Canada.

• 1:18:32Speaker 01

  Wait, what are you guys doing?

• 1:18:33Matt McCusker?

  Same place, Toronto, we'll be in Toronto.

• 1:18:34Speaker 00

  The agent has for some reason put us both in Canada on the same night.

• 1:18:38Matt McCusker?

  Kind of a wild move.

• 1:18:39Speaker 00

  But it means we'll get to hang out.

• 1:18:40Matt McCusker?

  True. But, everything's good.

• 1:18:43Speaker 01

  Fucking Ethan?

• 1:18:43Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. But we're both, we're both, all our shows are both at capacity. So we're good to go. Good to go.

• 1:18:50Speaker 01

  That's, uh...

• 1:18:51Matt McCusker?

  Still is kind of weird, yeah.

• 1:18:53Speaker 00

  It's very strange.

• 1:18:54Matt McCusker?

  I, I'll see it every now and again, I'll get linked with Soder somewhere, where I'm kind of like, why are we at the same place? I don't like that.

• 1:18:59Speaker 00

  Who are you bringing to Toronto?

• 1:19:02Matt McCusker?

  CJ.

• 1:19:03Speaker 00

  Well, I was gonna bring CJ.

• 1:19:04Matt McCusker?

  No, no, not CJ, sorry, AJ, sorry, my bad, I'm getting my, my bullies mixed up, AJ, I'll bring AJ.

• 1:19:09Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 1:19:10Matt McCusker?

  Going alphabetical order.

• 1:19:11Speaker 01

  Not HJ.

• 1:19:13Speaker 00

  Hungry Jacks?

• 1:19:13Matt McCusker?

  I'll be supplying, I'll be supplying the HJ.

• 1:19:15Speaker 00

  They're a big sponsor of the Adelaide Crows, who by the way, season's turning around, it's gonna be alright.

• 1:19:21Speaker 01

  Cry Boys, I heard Big Tex is... He had six kicks.

• 1:19:26Speaker 00

  Five, he had five goals.

• 1:19:27Speaker 01

  Nice.

• 1:19:27Speaker 00

  And it was fantastic, I can really, we, if we make it to the finals...

• 1:19:31Speaker 01

  Then you called him Wild, Wild West.

• 1:19:33Speaker 00

  Whoa! Whoa now! Cut that! Cut that!

• 1:19:39Speaker 01

  And then James McCann said...

• 1:19:40Speaker 00

  Cut that!

• 1:19:41Speaker 01

  I said, how, I said, how are the Crows doing?

• 1:19:43Speaker 00

  I don't need that on me.

• 1:19:44Speaker 01

  Oh, cut!

• 1:19:46Speaker 00

  Didn't we have a nice wholesome moment before we mentioned the football? That was a good place to end the pod. I do believe, probably overtime.

• 1:19:54Speaker 01

  Goodbye, Cry Boys.

• 1:19:55Speaker 00

  He's my hero!

• 1:19:58Speaker 01

  Yeah, you would never want to do that. Trust me. Alright.

• 1:20:02Matt McCusker?

  Bye.
