On the left. Sign stories? That's when the cannibalism started. Sign stories. Yes. Hey man, before we get started, oh you have something you wanted to say? Well just because I'm so moved by what we're experiencing right now. Oh, the moon? Yeah, the moon. The moon, yeah. I'm so moved. We looked at its ass. Yeah dude, I was looking at the footage from Artemis 2 and it's so beautiful. It's so amazing to see humans farther than any humans have ever gone. They got great shots of the earth. Everyone likes looking at the deserts that no one lives in and you know, it's blurry somehow. I'm honestly, I'm not trying to shit talk the Artemis 2 expedition. I think it's extremely wonderful. I'm happy we're doing anything. Sure, whatever. I know they're happy to be not here. So they're floating around the moon and I, you know, the first thing what I love it's like, you know, but I think it's wonderful. Again, I'm trying to stay positive. Yesterday we're on the big like LPN call. All the crew is so like excitedly watching it live. You know, we're all watching it go around the moon and then they're like, look at these breathtaking shots of the moon and it's pitch black. Yeah, it's the dark side of the moon, which is good. Good. I guess we're looking at it. Yeah. But then they're like, we've never seen it before. Can you see it now? And so we keep going around. It's like, I've never seen all the desert either. And then, you know, and then the guy named the crater after his dead wife. It's nice. He didn't do it. The other people did it. Oh, he didn't even think of it. From what I understand, the other astronauts are like renaming that crater after your dead wife. Oh, it's because she exploded in our backyard. Yeah, I told her to get away from the propane. I told her and I can't believe my wife has turned into a piece of the moon. Some people name their stars, you know, after. Oh, so I'm a hole. Something bright and shiny. In heaven. In heaven, I can hear me like, oh, so I'm a fucking hole. A hole that no one sees. Oh, good. Oh, so I'm just a dark hole and a place that no one will ever see again. Of course, because guess where I am right now? Mr. Astronaut Man. Oh, Mr. Astronaut Man getting to do it every once again. I'm trying to be hopeful. She's like, when the banjirid starts playing different tunes. Oh, I know what's going on here. Oh, how's Miss Sheila that you're traveling around the moon with? How's she doing in her piss filled suit? So a really good. They got Pee Pee Poop was a really good friend of mine from hungry ghost press. Check them out. Great blankets, t-shirts, you know, like we've known him for a long time. They're over in Providence, Rhode Island, and they, he, I'm stealing your story. He sent me this really funny story about him and his wife were on a vacation and they happened to talk to like, well, we just did. We just like sat next to a married couple. They just started kind of talking at a late night hotel bar having a night and after drink and they happen to sit next to this scientist that worked in all of the spacesuits. And they did the funny thing. Obviously, I'm a scientist. Yeah, I do. I do. Well, hey, let's just say I'm out right now. You know, but they, they were explaining, you know, they got the funny thing of like so poo poo pee pee astronauts, all the things. Yeah, they put the ass in astronauts. You know, all that kind of stuff. And she's like, no, it's a serious problem. Is that due to the physical nature of traveling through space, these guys are shitting their pants all the time. They're pissing and shitting and vomiting because of the piss and the shit all the time. It's a huge problem. And we have to make all these suits like, you know, like we know this, but we know that the Artemis two specifically the bathrooms went down. So they have to go into their maybe they shouldn't have been too. Oh, our two. But they they're all having to sit in their astronaut like the alt suits. So they're all seeing the most beautiful sight that anybody has ever seen. No human will ever seen. And they're doing it sitting in diapers filled with poo poo and pee pee. They're going to get rashes. It is the most symbolic moment about humankind that I can possibly think of is just sitting in your poop and your pee. Do they have a helmet on? I don't know, but just like, you know, I'd be fine with smelling my own poo poo pee pee. I can handle that for like, I'd say a couple hours at least. Have you been around piles of your stuff? Yeah, it's awful, but it's mine. And you know, like when what do you mean when when have you just been around fetid growing piles of your own waste? I guess not growing, you know, but I have shit outside and been around it. Welcome to side stories. My name is Henry Siprowski. I'm sitting here with Ed Larson. I know to begin the show when we finally gotten to our poo poo habits. Yes. Yeah. No, I had a great time watching the the NASA launch on Netflix. You know, it was 10 hours long. Good get for Netflix. Oh, yeah. Great get for Netflix. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, that's huge because you can't have it over on CBS because they're going to cancel it and replace it with Byron Allen. Yeah. No one's talking about how Byron Allen is making moves here. Like Byron Allen beat everybody. Yeah. He's a billionaire. Yeah. Did you know that? Yeah, no, he owns the weather channel. God, just. He owns the weather. Anybody who's ever seen Byron Allen comics unleashed, right? It's not it's not off the leash, right? It's comedy unleashed. And they for anybody who's ever seen this, anybody that has ever done a lot of drugs or spent a lot of time watching local television late late at night, super, super drunk. You know, Byron Allen has comics on for his comics unleashed show at four o'clock in the morning next to the infomercials where they have he very clumsily tease up comics to do their well worn road bits on the show. As in the guise of this is us having a conversation. One of the single worst shows to ever exist around the art of comedy. Would you like to do it? Please book us. Please. But he's like Byron Allen does this thing where he like he'll go like, so tell me so tell me, Sean, I heard you have a little bit of difficulty going camping with your grandmother like in that out of nowhere, you know, and then they have to launch into their bed. But he has taken over Barry Weiss, the evil woman that is control CBS as given him the Colbert time slot. Yeah, which is. They're moving it up. They're purposely destroying the channel. It's a show that I want to say how long has it been on the air? I'm going to guess 20 years. Comics unleashed is a show that is supposed to play in the background while you wait for your grandmother to die in the hospital. 2006. Wow. 20 years. I guess they're right all the way. So it's been on the air for 20 years. No one knows it exists. And now they're giving it one of the most coveted time slots. In all of quote unquote network television, which shows that it doesn't exist anymore. This show used to be on after the show, after the late show. Dude, after they replayed, you remember that Carson Daly had that other horrific late, late, late night show that was after the late night show. So it was like you had the tonight show. You had the second slot. Then you had the Carson Daly show. Last call. Yes. Last call. As called with Carson Daly, which was just like, I don't even know. 17 years that show ran. Oh my God. Holy fucking shit. Jesus, that's how dead this slot is. Yes. And he was famous. He people knew who Carson Daly was. Well, because of MTV. Yes. But also maybe people know Byron Owen. They do. I mean, he's obviously very popular. I guess so. I've never, I've never seen him on the road. No. Because why would he? He's a billionaire. He doesn't have to come up with a thing ever again. I don't think he ever has. No. I do. It's weird that I still like him somehow. I just feel like what is that about? What it is, it shows. I have nothing nice to say about. I don't know what he is. I don't know what he's like as a person. I have no idea about his comedic abilities, but I do know that Byron Allen has won. Yeah. And objectively, here's something nice about Byron Allen. He has given a lot of opportunity to a lot of comedians that would have never gotten TV time. Truly. Absolutely. It just happened to be at three o'clock in the morning. Yeah. It was like, it was, it was to keep the television on. It was like television that was supposed to play on a television built into the side of a commercial space where you're waiting for a black car to pick you up at two o'clock in the morning. Okay. Would you rather watch comics unleashed or Netflix is 10 hours dark side of the world? I realize it. The thing is, is that again, we were so compelled to watch the footage of this and truly moved, moved about it. We're not, we're not trying. So are the astronauts. Well, they were, they had to be. We were being like, again, I'm trying to be appropriately wonder filled. It's just a little difficult, but I will, but yes, only just because it's all just dark. It's one of those things where I was like, I can't believe we're going back to the moon. I can't believe we're going back to the moon in the middle of it happening. I was like, yeah, yeah, it's really sad. It's really fucking sad. I'm such a prick. You know, also, I know, like as a comedian, I also know, because of the way I feel is that I know that we're not that too dissimilar from other areas. And you know, there's somewhere in astronaut who didn't make the cut for this sitting at a bar just hate on these motherfuckers. Just be like sitting in their own shit. Yeah. You think I go farther? I could have went farther. Yeah. I'm sitting in my shit right now. Yeah. You don't think I can't sit in my shit. You don't think I can't sit in my fucking shit and look at the moon. I feel like now whenever I learn a fact about space travel, I'm just disappointed. Well, like this is the furthest they've ever gone. I'm like, really? Yeah. I got further than the fucking moon. We're going to get so many letters. I'm really so angry. It's so far. It's so far. It's definitely far. It's just this idea of we were so, you know, I'm like, I'm like, oh, I see 2001. They went through a fucking hole. Absolutely. We went back in time. I don't think I have a shit. I think truly our expectations were destroyed over the years. I think that's why we're like this. I think it's because we were fed a line. Jody Foster found her dead father. I remember. He's on the damn moon. He's on the moon. But no, Eddie and I came of age. We have to remember this and imagine a lot of our audiences also counted if came of age during a time period when we were sold the bill of goods, that we were going to have flying cars. Yeah. We were going to be sleeping on the like with sleeping and vacationing on the moon. And now it's just like we're making this like big fanfare again in the year of our Lord 2026, which is like an old future year of all these astronauts being like, we're going to look at it again. And it's a little like good. It's like, how you making such a big deal if you're not even landed? We're going to get letters. We're filled with wonder about it. And I want NASA, even though they're a bunch of liars. I wonder why people care so much. I just I want those liars to continue to go to the moon. And I think in a really good, this is a good way to do this in spirit is that one person who now maybe gets to go visit the moon. Oh man. It's our friend, friend of the show, Nick Pope. He would have loved this. He was like one day too late and couldn't go look at the other side of the moon. We met him several times. We interviewed him for contact in the desert. Is my Nick Pope is my first interview that has passed away. I'm really glad. I'm glad that that's true, Eddie. And you're glad that he's the first. No, I'm just saying I'm glad that it's the only one. Yes. And not everyone that you've ever met because that means your serial. I liked I liked Nick Pope. You know, I thought he was interesting. You know, he was an interesting guy. He was a great first interview for me to be honest with you. And he obviously had some he was he was conservative. And I think that this is the one places that we can we've talked about this before where under the tent of ufology, there's many different people and there's many different walks of life. And a lot of them are different shades of white, but his was specifically white. And he was a good guy to have a couple of pints with. We joked around with him quite a bit and he was deeply entrenched in the world of UFOs. You could see Nick Pope laid at the bar contact him. It was honestly he was kind of a delight. Yes. In that way I liked him not to be anything. The fact that I got to have beers with him. And even though we had serious conversations about UFOs, I found that when I saw the real him sucking back a couple. I kind of saw I was just like, I like that guy. Yeah, yeah, no, he's dead. He was always had a quirky little smile on his face. Little mischievous little fingers kisses everywhere. And I just got to say, Nick, good on you. And now you get to go out into the grand mystery beyond and see all the truth for the very first time. Yeah. I wonder what they're going to do with his remains. I want some. I want some. Bring it to here. Yeah. I want some of his fucking remains. I'll take a bone. Honestly, if you do, if I would I know about him as to be correct, those should be put in a pint of Guinness. And give him to his wife, give him to his glorious wife. They belong in a museum. Well, that's we'll get into a hole. We don't need to get into his wife. We don't need to talk about the controversial nature of his wife's industry. We'll miss you, Nick. We'll miss you, buddy. And I'll see you when I fucking see you. On the dark side of the moon. On the dark side of the moon where we will see nothing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is indeed. Yeah, these NASA astronauts are like, this is a fine gig in the sky. How we, how we you.

Y'all, we're back in with an update and my God, is it a nothing burger? But it is still something to think about. Gisela Maxwell has decided that she's going to spill some names and some dirty secrets. Some dirty secrets. Some dirty secrets and some big wigs. Some dirty, dirty secrets. She said that she's going to tell people she's singing like a little rapist bird because she wants to get out of jail. Yeah, she's claiming that she has 25 untouchable men. Names made secret settlements with the victims. We'll find out. Again, it's just Lain Maxwell. She's filled with absolute shit. She's trying to get out of jail. Even if she's telling the truth, they're not going to believe her. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Well, no, who knows? Oh, no, because right now we have no, there's no daddy, right? There's nobody in charge or literally just a pedophile is completely running everything. So it doesn't matter. So with Gisela, Gisela is trying to work her way out of jail still. So she will name every other person that's not Donald Trump on the Epstein list just to say names. Like she's just going to say names. Like we have the evidence. We don't need her evidence. We actually have the evidence. It has been a shit fucked since day zero. But we have the evidence. We don't need any more evidence. We like she's just going to come out and say a bunch of names and try to get out of jail. President Trump might actually get like release her. The only reason why he might not only is because she's a woman and he hates women. But I also wonder if he do it just to make people angry as well. Because once the Iran war like right now we're going to see tonight we're going to find out whether or not we're going to nuclear blast Iran. I imagine we're going to do boots on the ground invasion of Iran. They're doing all of this again. This is all about Epstein. We're not going to do anything. Who knows? We'll bomb them a bunch but we've been doing that anyway. We'll find out. We're going to find out in a couple hours. We certainly know it's not to save the citizens of Iran like we were first told. I mean there is no purpose to the war. The only purpose of the war is for him to do something in order. We already said it. Again we never have to ever think about any form of motive ever because he says it. He straight up says in that little speech that they released where he says, oh we don't have time to care about Medicaid and insurance and all of these things because we're doing big boy things like winning wars and running wars. This is the only thing he has ever wanted to do was to have his own baby war. And when he couldn't buy the Nobel Peace Prize he was now he's saying, oh now I'm a wartime president. And again he's just doing it because he's a child with toys. He's not even and because he's trying to distract from the fact that we all know that him and everybody connected to him or anybody that knows him or anybody that's ever trafficked with him at all in any way, any form of business is probably a pedophile and if not a pedophile at least a rapist. Yes. Back to old Josie. Oh yeah. You know I don't think this is going to help her at all. I think the only way that we'll believe her is if she ends up dead. Well that's what she's trying to avoid. Giselaen Maxwell is not like Jeffrey Epstein in the fact that Giselaen Maxwell wants to live. Yeah. I think Giselaen Maxwell, like Jeffrey Epstein knew, Jeffrey Epstein was such a sociopath that I think that on some level he was bandying all of these ideas like whether he committed suicide, allowed to commit suicide or was fully murdered. He was already, you knew that that was on the table. Yeah of course you run in that world that's like being in the mob. Yes. One day you're going to get killed. That's how it goes. Anybody in these industries they all eventually find violent bad ends. That works. Very rarely do they see all the way to the end like Jimmy Savile. Like it truly like and so he had a death wish. Yeah. So I don't think he was worried about that. You know everyone's saying oh look at all the stuff about him wanting to live forever and save his head and save all his calm and make a bunch of like super children like using genetic manipulations. And super models and shit. But I also, but I honestly think the very core of that is a deep depression. Of course. I know Eddie. I think he might be a little sad. If he was happy then we have a real problem. So I think this idea like whatever it's like oh but he wanted to live forever. I was like I don't think you understand that he wanted to live in a fantasy world like it was just another extended fantasy just like anything else. Yeah. As far as I'm concerned. But with Gisela Maxwell she really wants to live. So she is going to do everything she can to get out of jail because where are they going to kill her in jail. They want she's free. If she gets out like if she just serves her sentence and she gets out she's gone. I mean she's going to be like 80 something. I mean no. No. She's got like 20 years. Yeah. She's under 60s now. Is she? I think she's that old. She's a little bitch. Man she kind of looks good. Yeah. Jesus. I'm just saying in terms of her age. Now my big question is at this article. 64. Wow. Yeah. She's starting to look at now in jail. Of course. Because she hasn't got her fucking crazy treatments that she gets. I'm ashamed. Imagine how fucking ugly she would have been this whole time if she wasn't spending all that much. No. She would turn into the lady that I showed on this stream the other day that ate cockles and mash. Cockles and vinegar or local hot pepper on him. Yeah. She would just be a fucking local like small town English like well woman. She would just be out there going like. You gotta keep them rats. Me making rats too. They're looking for more rats. Another question about this article. How much are we respecting information coming from AOL.com? They call her a pimp in the headline. She is. I know but that's not. I was actually someone actually saying something correct about her. You think so? Yeah. She's a fucking pimp. I guess so. She's a human trafficker. That is somebody finally saying the words to what she is. I feel like a pimp is almost more respectful. See that's one of those things we forget that pimp used to be a big insult. It used to be. Yes. But pimp is like yeah we reframe it but if you really think about the term. I think it's an insult again. Yeah. I think it's gone back around. She's a fucking pimp. She is. All right. I mean I just feel like a pimp has of age women. Pimp. No. Eddie. Oh sweet, sweet Eddie. I feel like that's nice to think. You know what? What a sweet summer child you are. You think everybody who's a pimp has just been like let me see that ID. Oh wait. It comes from radar online which might be even worse. I will say that they listed her associates as Prince Andrew, E. Hoode Barak and Bill Clinton. No mention of Trump. Of course not. No. Because Trump is the one she can't mention. She can mention every single of the other ones. And also I would go as far as to say it's because she literally doesn't have any evidence on Trump because he doesn't use email and he doesn't write things down. Yeah. Except for when he drew the body of a pre-brobesson girl on Epstein's birthday book in order for them to dog whistle. They're both their predilection for having sex with 13 year old girls. God man, if they had the capability to fire whoever's idea was to put that birthday book together. It was just Lane. Was it? Yeah. I don't know why. No, no. That old thing and we'll talk about it. We now know that that 13 year old that made all those accusations about Donald Trump punching her in the head while she was trying to filet him is largely cooperated as well. There's a lot of... We did it as far as I'm concerned. Yeah. No, he did all that shit. Yep. So, yeah, we know. We know. We know. Cockles and mice. Get your walks of cockles and mice. Nice. The Jimmy Savile isn't hurting us at all. It's really not. It's really not. Do we want to get into some of the great stories we have this week? We have a tiny update that I feel like if we don't mention it, people are just going to yell at us. Oh, sure, sure, sure. So, DNA links Ted Bundy to the murder of a 17 year old girl from Utah. I mean, it shows... So, there's another one. They're still out there. It shows that they are out there. I do believe that we're going to see more... I will always say that John Wayne Gacy's numbers might have been in the hundreds. Really? You think he would have been that prolific? I think that once you're at... Is it wrong? I think he's too fat for those numbers? He traveled throughout Wisconsin. California. Indiana. He... All of those places, he traveled. There were several stories of other boys coming out and saying that they met a man that fit the description of John Wayne Gacy, that either raped them or tried to rape them or do a thing like this. So, I think that we're seeing... I think that once you are into a certain number of victims, like dozens of actual confirmed victims, then it starts to get to a point where you are... It's like the opposite. It's like way more than you think because John Wayne Gacy also had boys. He definitely had accomplices. So, somebody like him, Ted Bundy, he was doing the old fashioned American bootstrap way. Him, himself, he didn't need help. He went out there. He didn't need boys to come kill all these women. He could do it himself because he was the Kobe Bryant of murdering women. He claims that his numbers are over 100. Now, was he running around the same time as Henry Lee Lucas? Could Henry Lee Lucas have said that? No, it was all before. Okay. Henry Lee Lucas was before. Also, Henry Lee Lucas is full of fucking shit. Why no, that's what I'm saying. Could have Henry Lee Lucas confessed to some of Bundy's kills? Who knows? But they closed a lot of those cases. Yeah, exactly. But then they don't reopen them. Yeah. And whoever killed those people? Who knows? It's like lots of different, you know, Eddie, I feel like, and this might be rough for people to hear, but I think that women are getting murdered by the dozen, like a lot. And then it was happening like a lot. And I think that a lot of sex workers were murdered by the dozen. From the 60s through the early 90s. To now. To now. No, I mean, it's not as bad as it was. At least there's cameras now. Yeah, but then they still, you guys still gotta investigate it. Still gotta find these people. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like you look at what's going on in Canada, you go look what's going on, even just in Alaska. What do they do? Well, just the idea of like how many indigenous women go missing. Oh, I mean, well, that's... But I'm just saying in terms of... They're the most victimized group of people in the world. I'm just saying there's so many. I mean, who knows? They're in the running, Eddie! They are. Congrats. Congrats, indigenous people of Canada. You might just be the world's biggest victim. Let's check it out. Let's check the polls. Well, not just Canada. We do plenty. We do a good job here. Yeah, you know, now we... You know, what's going on? Well, you see this? We have actual news. Have you guys ever heard of this? We got some real news for you guys. All right. So before we get into men, get into trouble. I first want to talk about this one. This is a science thing. And it's just one of those where I... We're fucked. So the human eye, apparently, is an immunological fortress. So it has all of this thing you can get through. And it's also like, apparently, there's a way that you can deliver drugs to your eye. That's what's hard, is it for eye cancer. It's hard to get shit into your eyeballs. It's really difficult, right? It's unwanted intruders, right? It's like, it's a whole thing. They invite... You have all of these systems inside of your eyeballs to keep things out. But they're trying to figure out a way to get these eye drop, like whatever, this cancer medication into your eyeballs. I can't fucking... I can't do any droppers. I got really sensitive eyes. And they got tiny little slits too. They're finding a new way. They can't find nothing in there. But they want to find a new way to get all of the stuff all the way around your eyeball. And apparently they found a new way to attach the medication to fucking pig cum. Great. So pig semen gets squirted in your eyeballs with medicine in it. Hold on. You say that squirts all over the inside of your fucking eyeballs. Are you saying all my pig semen is just like useful? I'm just sitting under the sink right now doing nothing. I got three mason jars fucking collecting dust. I just love this. This is one of my favorite headlines. The only reason why we're even doing this story is because the headline is, scientists turn pig semen extracted eye drops that kill cancer and mice. And it's just something about... So in order to fix this stuff, we have to let these pigs come in our faces? No. That's what we're doing here. You jerk them off. You put it in a little vial and you squirt it in your eye. What are we talking about here? We're all must-do fuss. Why are these scientists... How do we even get here? Well, how are these scientists of all of the first stuff? They've tried everything and it didn't work. How'd we get here? Well, they're like... How did we get the pig come? Well, I think someone was blowing a cop and then they got... Yeah, yeah, yeah. The cop came in their eye and then they were like, you know what? I see great. Oh, here we go. This is all right. Zangsteam, right? He was inspired by the discovery that these things, I guess they're called exosomes, they're in pig semen. They play a facilitative role in the penetration of physiological barriers and the female reproductive tract during sperm migration. It's the same stuff that makes the sperm go in the egg, makes it go in your eyeballs. Oh, okay. So if you're used in like, pig... Female pig like squirt, not going to work. I don't think so. No. I mean, not yet. I feel like that's one of the big glass ceilings in the industry. I think pigs are like surprising to clean. That's like pigs penis? Yeah, a little twisty like a duck. Yeah, that's why it's fun about the semen is it is shooting a little tornado. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. When it comes out, you got to catch it in a big old bucket. Big... Yeah, it's horrific. Oh, shutter stock. We could buy that. Oh, I thought you meant the channel shutter. No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no. That's great. No, that's on the utter. Yeah, oh, it is. I just wanted to start with that to understand that's where science is at. Yeah, right. We're just talking off pigs and we're just tasting it. I guess, you know, it sounds like it's all like, it's just this idea of some guy who sat thought about pig cum and he was like, oh, well, pig cum makes, because I guess like you can't say human cum because that's like a whole process, right? You're not even saying pig cum, really. We're saying pig cum. They said semen. Yeah, they're doctors. I'm an entertainer. And so they had to go and they thought about jizum and they thought that like, oh, well, jizum goes in eggs and what are eyes like? Two eggs. I got two eggs in my fucking head. Wait a second. What's up, man? You gotta tell me. I got two eggs in my head. Yeah, man. Yeah, that's what the guy said. Yeah, sure. Yeah, definitely. Well, this story is both sweet and sour. I like that we. I like that we. It's not that we don't understand like what you're hearing here. It's not two people trying to discredit science or give misinformation about science. It's actually two very curious boys that talk about these subjects because we're just so curious because you know what it is? Boys are so curious and it doesn't stop sometimes when they become men. Because men are just curious. Oh, this is here that Rhett and Noblas, Fio, Mia, whatever. This is fucking called as a common eye cancer in children that is fatal if untreated. So we gotta come. So pigs have to ejaculate all over the faces of children. The disease is completely curable in high income countries. Patients are far worse than low to middle income nations. Because that's where they get the most pig cum out of go because there's the nicer farms for the farm or more. I think what they're saying is that these lower income countries have extra pig cum. We gotta get it. That's why we should. And that's why we're evading Iran. That's right. Get that pig cum. Get that pig cum. You know you got some extra. They ain't using that pig. No, they're not. I know you got some extra. Lower income higher pig cum. Yeah. Wow. Great. That's the title of the episode. And you know this again, curious boys. Yeah, I'm very curious. I got lots of things I want to know about. And that's where we're going to start this new segment called Men Get in Trouble. We might need a stinger down the road folks. Men get in trouble. Men in trouble. Men in trouble. Yeah. Yeah, men in trouble because it's really just about like that's really what it is. It's troubles. It's not specific troubles. But men are just men get in trouble. It's a common theme on the show. It is. I think it's common enough where we need a stinger at this point. Men are just curious and it kills the cat. They make statements. They do. They just make statements and they don't think about the statements before they make them and they made the statements and now they're written down. So here's a man. Here is a man right here. Who are we doing? We're doing quite a bit of trouble. Are we doing? He's a new Jersey man. Oh yeah. What is it with new Jersey people going to Pittsburgh to commit crimes? You know it's because no one reports them in New Jersey. Yeah, they're just like, I just barred for the court. That's just Bill. You know how he's. You know how he's. He's a good guy. But sometimes he just he grows the Easter Bunny. Well, fuck it. I tell you, keep your kids away from Billy and Billy can fucking touch your kids. I would I tell you about Bell? What I fucking tell you about him? All right, so his hands, they go like this. Yeah, I'm a guy. I'm a guy. We call him an octopus. You get away and the grabby hands. What do you think he got the knick. Fuck in your phone, right? Fuck a dick of second. Think for a fucking second. So a New Jersey man is in legal trouble because he assaulted the East Easter Bunny at the South Hills Village Mall. Now, I think like a holy holiday because I was watching another body camp footage of a mother of five killing an entire car load of people in the parking lot of Walgreens on Easter morning, really on Easter Sunday. And it's a lot of pressure. You did this before you made the lamb? Yes. I was the lamb was delicious, by the way. Thank you. I made a Moroccan style lamb. Oh, it was good. It was sweet. It was. It was very good to date and plums, plums and dates. Now this woman goes to according to the criminal complaint. So it was a female Easter Bunny. That there's a there's a big issue. Would you know? I don't think that that should be an issue. Oh, no, she's allowed to be the Easter Bunny. The Easter Bunny is genderless. The problem is, is that Peter Cottontail. That's not the Easter Bunny, though. Peter Cottontail is not the Easter Bunny. No, it's not. Here comes Peter Cottontail. It's another story. He's a different rabbit. It's another rabbit based story. Hippity hoppity. It's nothing to do with Easter. What? That's an Easter song. It's an Easter song. Peter Cottontail's an Easter song. Easter's on its way is how it ends. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's just because another bunny, the bigger bunny, the boss bunny, is in town. The Easter Bunny. Yeah, the bunny. The bunny, which is nameless. Oh, he can't be named. Well, it's a role. Oh, we're wrong. He's right. Peter Cottontail is the Easter Bunny. Peter Cottontail's the Easter Bunny. He's fucking in right here. In the 1950s, that's what they called him. That they just stole. That's a retcon. That's a retcon. What's his name? There is no name. Tell me his name. The Easter Bunny is a role. Is a name? Santa Claus is a role, then. That's what I'm saying. His name's Saint Nicholas. Yeah, I think that his name beforehand was named like George Gilbert of Boerfegeusch. And then he became the Santa Claus. That is what happens. Nicolai, yeah. Nicolai Nicuschekrekarsk. And then he became the Santa Claus. Yeah. Right? So this guy, whatever, however, the Easter Bunny got there, it wasn't ready for this New Jersey general. So he came in and first thing was that he was grabbing at the Easter Bunny, which he shouldn't do. Yeah. And I do see the comedy in it. We all do. That's what we're doing the episode. Yeah. So then he started grabbing at the top of her costume, saying, hey, hey, hey, hey, is it a boy or a girl? Is it a boy or a girl? But the thing is, is that as we all know with bunnies, that's not where you check. He began to put his fingers in the nose. In the mouth of the costume. Oh, it's got a serious little cursed boy. It's got a savory boy or girl. Right? And so they had to go. They finally found him. He left the scene of the crime after he grew up at the Easter Bunny for a while. And then they found him later on in the AMC Theater next to the mall and he was asleep on one of the top rows of the auditorium. Is this guy an A-lister? I think that he might be. And as an A-lister. Oh, let me go check out. Let me check out this thing. And I'll just go, oh my God, news and day of home. I got to go. So I expect AMC to cover my ass. No, as an A-lister, I lie for me once I'm in the doors of an AMC. And it's saying that is based. Sir, you are at his base. Sir, you are taken once I'm inside the AMC. So as he was taken into custody, this young man, this gentleman, according to the criminal complaint, he asked the police, he's showing the clothes, he's showing the clothes to the fire below. Is that on the clothes, the fire below the merchandise thing? Is that a bunny? And if they rather than moranerize, he kept asking, it's a doll, right? It's a doll. It's a doll, right? It's a doll, right? It's a big doll. I've been talking to all of you. He was informed that it was indeed a person, not a doll. He said, this is by mistake. My hand touched her by mistake. If it is a lady. Yeah. If it's a lady, it was an accident. If it was a man, I'd get it on purpose. I got to do what I was checking to see. You let him know. I can't have any trans Easter Bunny. Which is sad. You think he was saying, ready or not to? Honestly, I think that for Easter, he might have been seeing the special screening of the Passion of the Christ. That's a really good place to go hide. Yes. People do all kinds of awful things in there. Yeah, I'm always beaten off. So hard. Yeah. He's going to kill him in front of us. No. No. So that's not the only. He's seen Mario, probably. Oh, he's on Mario. Yeah, he's definitely seen Mario. I could see that. Yeah, that's a good one to drunkenly fall asleep into. How about Hoppers? What? Hoppers. That's what he was on. Oh, sure. So yeah, that's a little bit of trouble. He's arrested for sexually assaulting that Easter Bunny. But how are you going to put out a movie called Hoppers this close to Easter and have nothing to do with the fucking rabbits? Because they don't care about us, Eddie. It's because the executives don't care about us. Fuck these people. Yep. So now this is another story of a man getting a little bit of trouble. We have here. I would love to do. I love this one because this is so funny to me. It's just I can't even. So this is in Washington County. I believe this is in. Tennessee. Tennessee. It's in Tennessee. So this makes a lot of sense. The Washington County School Board. So this is a member, Keith Irvin. And so he had some kid on this live streamed event with all the kids that, you know, they're going, this is live. Yes. And he does this funny little thing. Rob, play the clip. God, you're hot. You're hot. What do you do? School lamp. I'm a grout kid. All right. For those of you that maybe not have heard that, he says, gosh, you're hot. And then he puts his arm around her. What high school do you go to? Now, that to me was like really funny. He did it in front of a whole room. You hear her on camera. Everyone goes like, because you know why I would say, guys, I don't know if you might know, but the news is filled with quite a bit of pedophilia right now. And there's like a lot of how do we put this like attention on how adults are interacting with minors, especially a 15 year old high school girl. Now, see this man, the first thing he said after this, so he said, gosh, you're hot. And the whole audience went like, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi. And then afterwards he tried to say, no, no, no, no, no. What you guys don't understand is that she was asking a lot of questions. Right? She got up there and she was a mile a minute. And I just meant like, you're hot on these questions. Yeah. You on fire answering these questions. You are the hottest child I've ever seen with these questions. Answer questions. No, answer questions. Oh, my Lord, you're so hot. I got to know where you go to school. Yeah. So I could find out. He put his arm around it. Where you learn how to do those questions at. He said there's a lot of context missing. A lot of context. You've got to watch the entire meeting to see how impressive this student board member is. Yes. Because then if you saw the whole meeting, you'd know how hot she is. Because then you'd know how impressive she is and how hot she was physically and how she was standing next to you. And then you then went and touched her body because you thought that she was physically attractive. But if we you fell in love with her because of how good she was at the meeting, which I get. Also, it's a. We just can't see that. We can't see your love story. Parents from the schools are asking him to resign. My question is, what does it take to get fired? Oh, no. It's very difficult. Can we just regular fire him? You would have to. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You'd have to like legitimately he'd have to. I think you'd have to murder a 12 year old on camera to get fired. He is you can't misconstrue what he says. I refuse to. I will not go with him. You know what it is? God, yeah. You're. Gosh, you're how? Where do you go to school at? Where you go? I got to go. I got to see what they're putting in the water by the reservoir where you're at. I can give some to my step niece. Are you a lady? Are you tell me? Are you a lady, Mr. Bunny? Now promise me you're a lady. You got to tell me, listen, you can be arrested if you like. This is the state of Pennsylvania. You could get arrested for not telling me if you're a lady or not. All right. Now you tell me you give it up. What's the gender? Give it fucking up. You see, this is what I just don't understand is that we all know. So we all are going to have to go and make this excuse for you. Like you could even say you misspoke. You can even come out and be like, oh, my God. I wasn't in my right mind. I was physically warm. Yeah, also just he's old. Get rid of him anyway. Yeah, caught him. I hate to be completely fucking ages, but like let's get someone younger in there, they're teaching children. You know what I'm starting to understand? You know what I'm actually, I think that this is this thing is that we're supposed to protect these older people from themselves. When actually, no, he's telling you he shouldn't have this job anymore. Yeah. And I think that that's OK. I think that a lot of these old people that are currently in jobs that they shouldn't have anymore, retire, should be told that they shouldn't have these jobs anymore. And it's not ageism. It's not anything. It's that you're too old to be around people because you refuse. Because you know, I know you're too old because there's an 85 year old next to you that knows to not call a 16 year old hot on a live stream. And I'm not even saying those did not do it publicly. Knows maybe not even do it privately. You have these people, those are the people that are too old. When you start getting dysregulated and start talking out of the bottom of your fucking ass into a microphone and you're an elected official and a bunch of people are hanging on your every word and you're literally just a fucking gobbledygook, pudding brain moron. All right, we got to fucking we need a calling of these old people. You know, one of the main issues is why people are in retire retiring like they used to is because no one has any fucking money anymore. I told you that is everyone's parents are secretly broke. Eddie, if anyone thinks they're getting money from their parents or not, I think that we're heading into what's sort of like an actual real discussion, which I'm always trying to avoid. Yeah, but like I think we're heading into this idea of we're actually starting to see the full circle thing of what uncontrollable uncontrolled capitalism is doing. We're starting to see how it's also affecting our social systems in this way. I know I'm getting a lot of my leftist listeners being like, what have we been yelling about? But it's like, yes, but we're really seeing it now. It's like really happening because of the old people can't afford to retire. They're going to stay in positions that they shouldn't be in. And if they are not like because that's really what it's not again, it's not about the age. It's about willingness to learn and understand the growth of the world. Can you sit and be like, yes, the world is different than it was 10, 20 years ago. But that doesn't mean that it's bad. It means that it's different. Yeah, he said it was fucked up back then. Well, no, it just means that it's different. It just means that there are you're going to have to change. It's called life. And if you can't change, you die. Like you. So these guys are I think that's what we're seeing is a bunch of people who physically can't learn anymore. Yeah. And once we're at that level, we're fucked. We're going to be in this fucking bullshit for forever. We need some young people doing things. Yeah. So let's get him out of there. Huh. Fire up. Do us a favor. Don't let him resign. Fire his fucking ass. She's like, you know what? She should be fired up the spot. Guess what? Big mistake. Well, he probably has 10 years, probably a union thing. It's probably difficult to get him out of there, but also at the same time, fucking work him out. Fuck him. You know what? Yeah, you made a big guess what you just did. Ruin everybody's fucking ear. Yeah. That's what that's enough for you to be fired. Take the hit. Yeah. Fire him. Yeah. You know, whatever, pay him out and fucking move on. Who gives a fucking shit fucking next? Yes. Um, we have speaking to someone who got fired for being a piece of shit to young girls. He's in the news right now. Matt Gaetz. Oh, he's a that motherfucker needs to be. Let's send him to Iran. Yes. I think he'd be great on the front lines of Iran. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Just right in front. You could definitely be a big American flag and a big thing. We'll have him say like, fuck the Ayatollah. We'll put a fuck the Ayatollah sign on his front and we sent him in the front of him and Baron Trump right next to each other, just waiting into the war. You know, big ass head collect bullets. I would love that. But Matt Gaetz has come out and said this thing about how he was briefed on we with on these alien hybrid programs as a part of this. Like he's been working with whistleblowers. We know Matt Gaetz. He's a house of representatives. Where is he out of? Florida. Of course. Yeah. And so I actually didn't know. But he's been fired for, you know, he was fired. It was like the first thing Trump did was fire him. Well, no, he promoted him and no one cleared him. And so he was essentially fired. They did that on purpose. Yeah, it was kind of done on purpose to get rid of him. To get him out because he was a big problem because he got caught trafficking young girls. You know, it's the only one they've ever cared about, which I find it really interesting. He's just that much of an asshole that they just don't like him. That's like, that's how you kind of know. Like that's how you start to read between the lines of who they actually punish. It's because they don't like those guys. It's like how Trump's been floating this. I'm going to put Ted Cruz on the Supreme Court thing. And it's because Ted Cruz is one of the most unlike person in all of government. Everybody hates Ted Cruz. They all fucking hate him on the inside. And he knows that putting him into those positions is a threat to all of the people within the Congress. So this is how you start to understand they use each other's personalities against each other's too, you know. So Matt Gates, so unlikeable, they would stuck him on the alien division. Matt Gates is working in the alien sphere, right? He's working in the UFO community, working with whistleblowers. Him and Marco Rubio are part of this whole, like the only thing Republicans do that I can remotely stomach is working on the UFO stuff. And he came out and said that he was briefed on this alien hybrid program, which to me would mean it is definitely fake. Yes, because if you're briefing Matt Gates, you're lying to him. That is literally what's happening. So if you're briefing Matt Gates, if you're if the United States intelligence services are telling Matt Gates anything, they're telling them that so that he sounds like a moron. Yeah, because he said that they are breeding aliens with humans to create a master intergalactic race. I ought to think that what he is saying is I do believe my heart of hearts now is that what we have is a bunch of stuff. We've talked about this a little bit. We have a bunch of stuff that we can't explain in hangers, and we don't know what to do with it. And we can't just get smaller. Henry, what he says? A lot of stuff we can't explain in hangers. And I was thinking, it's just getting smaller. That's what is even there's a dish with all these clothing. Someone is making my shirts much tinier. I don't know what machinations are a foot. But someone has made my t-shirts at least a size too small. But Matt Gates, like I think that we, you know, we have stuff that we can't explain. We have some and I think that there was a piece of information that suggested that we were either put here or like there. Like that's kind of what they said about the idea of Jimmy Carter couldn't stop crying and the other all the generals are really fucking scared. Because they've been told this piece of information that might allude to the fact that we weren't here naturally. And that they, it just to them, they have pushed it and pushed it and pushed it down. That it turns into this sort of misinformation that then is fed to Matt Gates. Because then it sounds super stupid and super fake. Because all the generals are genuinely very, very afraid of their personal God being subjugated by a technological God that is way bigger and more advanced than the Christian God. He said that we bred caravans of migrants with aliens. That's a that's a deeply racist, very Republican talking point. Yeah. Like, just this idea that, you know, because then it switches into Q. Now we're in Q. Yeah. Once you're talking about, oh, it's migrants that are with the aliens. Yeah, like fucking not to be honest. We captured the caravans and then we bred the caravans with aliens. It's just to make any sense. No, it doesn't make sense. It doesn't make any sense. There's no purpose to this. This is the good thing, too, right? Is that if we're doing this. Yeah. Obviously, you're like, yeah, Henry, it doesn't make any sense. But no, I mean. The actual then what is the outcome of it? What actually is the purpose of the program? Yeah, we're not trying to make an ascended version of humankind. I don't think we would have to. Like if there were aliens everywhere, we wouldn't have to breed them. We would just fuck them. Oh, we know, especially if they can't breed. Yeah, if they can't breed and we can have to have a program. Oh, just do it. We'll beat chatbots. Yeah. If aliens just show up with holes and they say, yeah, sure. Fuck you can fuck it. I don't care. I feel nothing. My brain is not here. I am a remote entity. This is just a capsule. And then you're like, I can fuck the shit out of it. Yes. So they started with putting. That is what you choose. Then you are allowed. They started with putting pig semen in their eyes. Yep. They're like, that didn't work. Yeah, this is fucking. This is honestly. It's gross. What if I just fell its pussy with human cum? All right. Well, you try. Where's Matt Gates? Let's get him in here. Don't do that. Don't do that. We with LV, I can get my car insurance from just two hundred and ninety nine pounds, just the price I'm after right now.

Well, the reason why we bring up some aliens is because for the very first time. Eddie and I got to speak to an alien. Yeah, baby. Today is a historical day for us here at LPN and at Side Stories, in which at Larsen and I got to speak to a particular idol of ours. Yeah, like a true fucking hero of Earth. A legend that we got to ask some questions to in a very small period of time. I know you guys don't necessarily even like our interviews, but this is for us. I don't care. Yeah, this is actually this one is actually for us. Yeah, actually for us. And I think that you should listen to it because it is interesting because he does say some really interesting things in here. And he really is a man beyond time, a man beyond art and can't believe we got to spend our time on this globe with him. I feel like that he's one of those two where it's like this guy is one of those where I am people. I'm so happy I got to be on Earth at the same time. Much less talk to top five most important people to me. Yes. Like including parents. So we have. It's a mini little thing here. This is the promo. Ed is going out for the parliament, the PFUNC festival festival in Tallahassee up at Fifth Farm. It's going to be in two days or three days this Saturday. I'm not fucking around. If you're in the Tallahassee area, you go, you're going to see Ed and Holden perform for you all day and funk music. Like they are just going to be running back and forth between tents, performing for you. Dude, every single iteration of PFUNC is going to be there. And the man himself, Dr. Funkenstein fucking Mr. Mr. Atomic fucking dog. That's right, man. Star Child himself is fucking George Clinton. You all come get it. Woof.

We're joined by Danny Bedrozen and the man himself, George Clinton, Dr. Funkenstein, the prime minister of funk, Mr. Wiggles. That's right. He's a goddamn worm. How y'all doing? We're here to talk about aliens and all things. P Funk. We're plugging the let's take it to the stage. P Funk Fest on April 11th, this Saturday at Phipps Farm in Tallahassee. Get your tickets at P Funk Fest.com. I'm going to be your MC. Every faction of P Funk is going to be playing at this festival. It's going to be incredible. We're going to be out in the mud having a great ass time. How are you boys doing? Good to see you. Cool, man. Glad to be here, man. Hell yeah. Right on time for this alien talk. Right. I heard they're getting ready to let the cat out the bag. That's what I like to hear, man. You have been such a presence in our lives. I mean, all world's lives, but in our lives specifically, you made us cool, right? You've made us cool people. And I was even saying that, like, but I wanted to talk with you about aliens. Yes. My entire young man's life. See, here's the deal. We were obsessed with the music and all that stuff, but we are both cut from the alien cloth. Henry is obsessed with aliens. And I know you are too. We just saw the mothership at the Smithsonian together. We got pictures. It was beautiful. It was like going home, man. It was beautiful. I can't believe they let it in one building, man. Cool. Well, you know, we're getting ready to redo the mothership again. The Essence Festival in New Orleans, July 5th. No way. So you're bringing back the mothership? We bring them. I'm telling you, this is the time for the aliens to come back. Yeah. The Anunnaki's on their way. George, can I ask you, are you like, are you scared by the idea of disclosure or the idea that like aliens being actually fundamentally real? Like, is there any part of it that that frightens you? Only to try to keep it here is frightening. What they would go through to keep it here. That's kind of scary. I don't think I think they've been part of our thing for a long time. Do we are archaeology and in? Oh, yeah, we said magic and science. Magic and science is coming to that, you know, crossroad again with whether you want to call them demons or aliens or entities. We at that point now where we're going to need an AI to explain it to us and who AI is and all of that intellect is leading us to that dance. We've learned a lot now and we got to figure it out for ourselves, which part of it is real. But I believe that it's here that they have been here. You know, Spielberg is getting ready to make some kind of announcement pretty soon. I don't know what that's about. I was the guest of honor at Tosen Counties. Oh, yeah, close. I was I was a guest of honor at her at her opening of the movie. Julie Phillips and the whole surrounding of that movie itself was weird to me. You know, but I don't trust nothing I was thinking back then, because I was kind of out of my mind. Hey, no, I refuse to believe it. I think you saw more than anyone else could. Or can I just ask a straight up question? All right, I just want to get into this. I saw in a previous interview that you and Bootsy saw something. But oh, no, that it was so real. That was so real. I mean, if whatever it was hit the car, it was a light. First of all, we like we saw it for at least 10 minutes. Yeah, and hit the car and it beat it up. You know how Mercury looked in a thermometer when it when it beat up and move around. Yeah, hit the car and roll off the car and beads like like Mercury off the side of the car. OK, now we have been watching it two or three times as it was hitting the ground. But then it finally like like a light right from the sky. You know, like laser, but when it hit the ground, it splattered like electricity. That's so fascinating. Hit the car. You and Bootsy were driving, right? The idea was it was after a gig, right? It was after a gig. No, no, no, no. After we left the studio, Detroit drove for one to Toronto to Mississauga. We never made it to Toronto. Got to Mississauga right by the airport. And as we was pulling that now, we don't drove through Detroit into Canada. So we couldn't come through the border with nothing. So we wouldn't hide. OK. And that's a great corroborating fact. I was just about to ask. OK, we just come to know we just come through the border, you know, and we was clean, you know. And so when we got there, we saw it in coming straight down to the industry first time and neither one of us said anything. We turned off a 401 on to Burnham Thorpe and going down about a half a mile. We saw it come down through the trees on the right side of the street, which we were on. Then on the left side of the street in the same block we were in. And the third one hit the car. Hit the car. The street lights went out. And they start dimming. They didn't go straight out to start dimming, dimming car lights going out. Pretty soon, we didn't see another car at all. And all the lights was going out. It took us at least a mile before we come to an intersection and saw lights and cars again. And I live about a half a block from that. My daughter came out and say, what happened to y'all? Y'all look like you've seen the ghost. We didn't say a word. We didn't say a word for years. We didn't talk about it. Why not? Because you thought you'd be looked at as crazy or? Myself, I didn't think that you tell anybody you are crazy, especially since we wasn't high. Yeah, exactly. No good excuse. Do you feel like it's then been a part of your life before and since? Like obviously UFOs and aliens have run through your work. After that, a lot of stuff that doesn't happen in my life seemed like it had something to do with that or with that being a even when we had the mothership and on the road, we had weird people that would come around, want to talk to us, you know, some from the Air Force. You know, a lot of it was presumed to be commercials. Like we were doing commercials for the Air Force. We were allowed in Denver, Colorado, North Red. Yeah, the whole band was allowed in there. What? The whole band. I mean, Casablanca could take you anywhere. They were good heights people. So commercially, we had the excuse that we was doing this for the the armed forces we were doing the commercials and relationship for the kids in school. So we had a good cover. But the weird people that showed up, you know, as you look back over your life and how much stuff we I was, you know, I had that book, We Hold a Pale Horse. Do you ever read that? I knew he was going to talk about this one, too. This is yes. We were talking about the idea of Behold a Pale Horse by Bill Cooper. Right. Like this whole book features deep within like all conspiracy theory circles. William Cooper. Yes. Yeah. That was that was the most popular book in my life in 88. I mean, I had to manuscript. Somebody sent me the manuscript, sent it to Warner Brothers and sent one to Paisley Park. Wow. The manuscript. So I got the manuscript. I was so shook. I didn't I wanted somebody to know I printed up a million game to everybody, print everybody had. And when the book came out a couple of years later and we realized that it was the same book, we didn't I didn't know. Yeah. I bought books. I was giving the books to everybody in record companies. I thought I had found Holy Grail. Yeah. The book comes out. And now I realized that had a lot to do with me having to go sit down in the industry. Oh, yeah. You know, because that's that's a lot of information. Yes. You know what I'm saying? And that was that all of that and all of that stuff that he said in that book now is like. Even straight down to ice, he had a whole section on. The police. Police state that dressed like they were masked on. Remember, he had all of that in the book. Yeah. Oh, no, no, no. We've been seeing it. I have you ever have you seen the film Soundtrack of a coup d'etat? It's a documentary that came out two years ago. It was basically it's all about how the government in the CIA used to use Dizzy Gillespie, Louis Armstrong and Nina Simone as like a smoke screen and that helped them change over the government. They would. They would hide in their touring groups over to Africa in order to flip hostile governments to the US because Congo was supposed to go liberated. It was all this stuff. So the CIA had embedded themselves with Dizzy Gillespie over there. I believe that. I believe that all the all that kind of control the agencies and everything have parts and those things that you don't have you have no knowledge of. Do you ever feel like they don't even have none of them don't even have knowledge of what they're doing. Exactly. And do you think that they ever tried to do something like that to you? I'm sure they did. I'm called the industry for nothing. They just called the industry. Yeah. No, hell, yeah. I mean, we let we we had a lot of people following us. I will be always made in my business not to let nobody use us as that. The face for somebody face for some for some propaganda because I didn't trust none of it. You know, I didn't want to leave people down some way and then I changed my mind and they can't. So I made sure that I even things I believed in. I never give my opinion on that. I'm just saying what if. Oh, here's the information we got to dance through. And I don't know. I don't have no magic one, but this is what they talk. And that's what William Cooper was doing in that book. He didn't tell you what to do. He said this is what they are talking about. Yeah, these are the things they contemplate. And these are the scenarios they're running. That's what this whole thing. Not tell you what to do about it, but to know about it that is happening. So I did a lot of that. But now I see a lot as I got older. Oh, hell yeah, we was in that in right in the middle of it. Oh, yeah, Co and Telpro and everything else running around us, you know, because we was we was perfect for that. Oh, yeah, and Telpro. Yeah, we came out, but we came out of the 60s. So psychedelic. I had a lot of room more than most people because, you know, Woodstock and all that had made that almost legal in our mind. Sure. Oh, yeah. And, you know, I never thought of it as nothing but peace and love. So even I look back to scary things that we came through. You know, what's the same as the beginning when we first went into it? By the time we got out there, we was big stars, you know, and could have been led any kind of way or could leave people in the kind of way. We had a big mothership and I had to know we ain't leading nobody. Nothing that, you know, then I may change my mind if I don't like it. I don't I try not to do that. From politicians to cults have followed this band. Or oh, I can't even imagine. Oh, yeah. Oh, politician cults. Political groups, political groups, social gangs, right? Gangs. Oh, yeah. That's one good thing about the on the gang side of it. We always whenever we play, there will always be truths. Wherever there was a gang situation, because everybody had to come to see the show and they didn't want to, you know, fuck up seeing the show. So they would, you know, hey, no, no set tripping. This P P font set trip. That's the only thing you did. But as soon as we left, you know, yeah, you can have each other in three hours. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. OK, that's the way we were in the fifties. You know, we had the battle of the groups. We go in each other's neighborhood. We could do the show. You had two hours to get out of the hood. That's right, man. You've been around for fucking ever. I have the the the the parliaments. O.G. hit this. Dude, like like that. Like I can't even believe how not to be. I'm calling you old, man. I'm saying you're kind of a legend. It almost 70 years in the game, man. It's crazy. Oh, no, more than 70. The band is 71 years old this year. OK, Jesus. I mean, I'm a blackboard jungle. I was around for that, you know, West Side Story. I saw all of those. I saw. OK, my first phenomenon in grade school was Davey Crockett. Geez. The thing of that. Oh, yeah. That was like Davey. Davey Crockett. That was like the Beatles when when that song came out. All your your paraphernalia had Davey Crockett. I've worked at the hula hoop factory. I made hula made hula hoops at 15. Right. Yeah. OK. So I watched the whole phenomenon. Lots of phenomenons happen and I time all together to me. It's all one big merch thing. As a man that has been around for so many different things, can you give us one prediction about the year 2050? Well, whoa. 2050. Oh, shit. Are we still going to be here? Oh, yeah, we'll be what you call it. In the first one, planetary planetary dominance. We'll be able to get the energy from the sun. We're going to be we'll be off the planet. We're living off the planet. You know, people be dating robots. Yeah, there's only 24 years. That's the weird thing. It feels like it's a million. Oh, no, 24 years. And now you're going to be deep in Star Trek country. Yeah, I hope so. We need to change something. But who's going to do that in 10 years? We just can't trust you want J.D. Vance to be president of the goddamn moon. I don't want to be president of the moon. No, that that that that that that whole thing. We have some more problems by then. Those are those are light ones. Those will be passed by those will be passed by. But J.D. Vance is the Dan Quail of 2050. Yeah, I know. People want to talk. Fuck. Oh, yeah. Now, did you ever get in like a deep conversation with Sun Ra about aliens? Like, who's more in touch? You were him. I know he was off the planet in one direction. I was off in another direction at that time. So we never had a chance to like talk, you know, but I found out about his whole thing later on that I didn't realize that he was that serious about it. You know, because it referred to a lot of jazz musicians as far out in, you know, and same with rock musicians. Jimmy, to me, was off the planet. Yeah, yeah. You know, but a lot of, you know, Ferris Sanders, Sun Ra Miles, a lot of them was out there, but Sun Ra just made it home and had a lot of information. I didn't realize that he had been into doop either. He started out. Yeah, he started out as a doop. And he even did some like, if you listen to the first that New Beans of Plutonia album, it's one of the first ones that's from the forties. Yeah, he's fusing doop with like this, like really almost rugged sort of pan African jazz type sound, like a world music sound. And but then they've got these who, but they just do like one, one of those and hold it and just like like this other shit is going to get that album now. It's crazy. He was tuned into something else. Yeah, I mean, he was on another level. It was I love all of his stuff so much. But for our audience back home, our audience mostly, well, I'll just say it a bunch of a bunch of, you know, 40 year old white people. Could you explain the importance of Afrofuturism? Wow. Then. The importance of it. Um, I don't know how you call it. I think that all of that we connect all the whole planet, whole life, all humanity is connected to Africa. And, you know, I think all of that, whatever that vibration is, that's the beginning of everything we do. All of us, you know, difference as to who came out of there, who got out of Africa first and all that. But all of it started there. And I think that's the roots for our life form that to know about the rhythms, the dress and all of the social orders that they've had all those years, you find that it's been empires there before. We mean, this is not the first empire. There's been civilizations. The suns buried there. So I think a lot of the roots are there. So it's important that we started dancing to those rhythms and figuring out what that vibration that we missing, because we're not tuned like we supposed to be tuned right now. The computers and all those, all that's cool and all. But I think we've been there before. I think they have all of this before all of this to me. We just repeating, let's get it right. And Africa is full of that. Can I ask George? What do you do to get in tune? Oh, shit, I'm 85 years old now. I smoke a joint. Good. So we're on the same level. Yeah, good. You're great. All right, great. I mean, I don't know nothing deep. I don't know nothing deep. I just that's just the way I feel about it. I can be wrong as well, you know, but that's it makes me feel cool at 85 that I'm still feeling at all or concerned of being asked those kind of questions. I'm glad to be at the party at 85. So yeah, I'm having a good time. You know, I think also just real quick, like it shows his modesty, you know, and not only that, like the people that are closest to the center of any of any concept, you know, those are the people that can't necessarily verbalize it to you the way that you want to hear it. Of course, because they're so close to it that it's just from the feel of it. All of his influence came from the feel. It turned into a concept and people theorized it and academicized it and have turned into so many different things. But it's the transcendence that he was talking about before. Like I give you a what if I provide a particular this this idea, this idea, this one, it's as transcendent as Bach. It can mean a thousand different things, you know. And so like it gets deep. Yes, we were just talking about this very thing about the idea of Alistair Crowley. Right. Like if you look at Alistair Crowley, he created the visage of a villain. He decided for society's good, he would create of himself a villain character that would walk the world that would enrich in our lives because he has created a legendary thing out of nothing. And that that is like one of those like Oscar Wilde did that. And George Clinton, you're an exact example of people can look at as a way to sort of, oh, I want to get to that, which is 50 of them. Yes. To me, to me, I always worried about no matter what you say, I do. There's all I'm worried about that person in the corner who says, who gives a fuck? That would always keep you in check, even though when somebody asks me, am I aware of what I've done? Yes, I'm aware. I know that doesn't great shit. You know, but I tell myself that in the bathroom so I can flush it when I say. That's a good way to say, man. And leave it. So when I get out here, I ain't got to defend that person. Who gives a fuck? You know, that I'm safe. I'm all right. Yeah. Well, I'll say you're you are a lot better regulated than a lot of other 84 year old dudes right now, man. Absolutely. I'll fucking tell you that a lot of the a lot of these guys. A lot of these guys are throwing some pretty ran, pretty randy fucking temper tantrums out here. Let me ask you, George, what would you do if someone said, if someone came up to you and you're like, listen, what if I told you we could clone Dr. Funkin Stein? Would you let them do it? Oh, oh, hell no. Not if they just walk up to me like that. All right, they got a briefcase. Big suit on. Big suit on. They got to do something to turn me home more than that. Yeah. George, also, how would you feel if you were let's say, all right, 20 years from now when you may die, would you feel that would you want to be replaced by a hologram? I wouldn't give a fuck about it. We already did it. We already did it. We did it. We did it. We did it a long time. Yeah, we already got a hologram a long time ago. Like we did that 2013. 2013. Probably. We did that. Yeah. Matter of fact, when it was pretty new and but but already very advanced and like it's like he made it like the P Funk Parliament live P Funk Earth Tour. Like he he brought me in the studio after he's like, Danny, we're going to do a bunch overdubs over what we did. We're going to make this a whole thematic. We turned it into a whole thing. I don't even know what they did with the footage, but it's done. Yeah, that's amazing. How is Tupac's hologram? Is he nice? Can you like it? Is he is he fun to be around? Who's one of the first ones to do it? Oh, yeah. Did you see that? I didn't see. I saw little pieces of it. That was one of the first modern. Yeah, modern. Well, listen, they probably by now they probably got them that. You know, they can probably hologram can walk out into the middle of the floor in your room and talk to you now. They were working on it. They got now. I know we're working on it. I want it to be. You could smell me. I want me to show up in your room and you can smell my cologne. Yeah, that's the real fun. OK, no, all your senses going to be engaged. Oh, man, well, I'm going to be engaged when I'm at P Funk Fest this weekend. That's Saturday, April 11th at the Phipps Farm in Tallahassee, Florida. It's going to be 11 hours of funk. We're getting down. I'm going to be emceeing at George and the advice to emcee this thing. I mean, I got to say, I'm a little nervous. I'm pumped to tell everybody to bring two booties. That's right, man. Yeah, what is a booty? And how do I know if I'm shaking it? You know, like I don't know. OK, you don't want me to finish that. Thank you for gracing us with some incredible truth today. And thanks for kicking it, man. Thanks. Absolutely. Make sure you pick up a copy of Make My Funk, the P Funk Parliament, Funkadelic's meteoric rise in 1975 from Chocolate City to the Mothership Connection by Daniel Bedrosian. And of course, these two fellas, they got their YouTube and Patreon show bump by bump where they go over rare P Funk tracks. Oh, yeah. Talk about how it's all made, man. It's beautiful. You all got to check it out. I love you, too, with all of my heart. Love you. I love you and I love you. I love you both. Love you guys. See you on Saturday, baby. Yeah, yeah. See you out there, man. Wow. Not a single music question. Not no, nothing. They didn't talk about music at all. We're a little bit. We asked about someone else's alien music. Somebody should ask about someone should like know more about like, you should go research about Sun Ra, because the Afrofuturism movement. Well, you know, I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about the audience. So it's like the Afrofuturism movement is really interesting in terms of both pop culture, sci-fi, all of this stuff. There's so many cool things in Afrofuturism. And that's kind of what Sun Ra, I believe he created it. Yeah, I would say he created it. And he it is just a pretty P Funk. Well, he's just straight up saying black paper or aliens. And I'm bringing everybody back home. Like that's the thing. And it is a it's beautiful to see. And so just talking with George Clinton about this fucking shit because he's still so with that. He really is, man. He's smoking that big old fucking joint. As long as I feel like he's more with it now than he has by been my entire life. The only time I had ever seen him live and I've seen him do interviews. And I like the fact that we got to talk with him about UFOs and psychedelics. He is just I can't believe it. Dude, him and Danny together, because Danny is like the true P Funk historian. Danny's the reason why the band continues to like live and go as good as it does. He knows more about them and what they've done than anyone else on earth. And for those of you who don't know Danny Badrosian that was with or with George Clinton, he is the head organ player for P Funk. He is there. They're fucking he's George Clinton's consigliary. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, basically the band leader. He's the band leader and it is just and we knew him from back in the day when Eddie used to work with him over at Hooters. That's right. Danny and I know each other forever from Hooters. We've been fucking throwing parties, having for forever at my house in Tallahassee. That's how I met true PCU life. Dude, that's how I met the junior, George Jr. That's how I met all the rest of the guys. Yeah, man. Like I remember being in that party, going to your house. How many stories am I allowed to tell? You're allowed to tell anything you want. I think I told the story, but the one time when all of P Funk, the rest of P Funk, except for George, wasn't there. And then I was allowed to go into the back private room. You let me go in my bedroom was the VIP room. I wrote VIP on it and I paid one of my larger friends to stand in front of the door. And I'm like, you only let in our friends, celebrities and Hooters girls. Yeah. I put a tag in my room and a full bar and I had one and I had someone sitting in the corner, rolling blunts. I was at 30 people in my bedroom. Dude, I remember walking in there and they were all doing lines of blow, like all of P Funk was doing like crazy coke. And then she looked up at me and I was like, sorry, everybody. I'll be going now. Enjoy the cocaine. Yeah, man, it was fucking wild time and I miss it, man. We had to, I was able to talk the cops out of stopping our parties. It was just so much fun. It was fucking like you. You gave me a real college existence during that time period. Well, one of those parties was the first time we smoked weed together. Yeah. Yeah. It's fucking awesome. Also, I want to do a bit of a correction because I'm not going to do any listener emails because I don't really like, but I do someone brought up because on last week's episode of the Jimmy Savile series that we're doing for last podcast in the left, a laugh a minute. We are, we talked about like one of the things that came up was about female novelty acts and we were saying we can't think of a female novelty act. And we had a lot of people bring up after the fact, which I do understand. Garfunkel notes. Obviously, the reformed horse. Yes. But in my mind, I actually, like I know them and like I know them personally, like all the kind of in my mind, I don't like this is I feel like this is a side story LP O TL at gmail.com question that I love to open up to anybody else. Maybe knows music theory or whatever is a comedy song and a novelty song. The same thing. Yeah. You see, I don't know like Garfunkel and Garfunkel and oats to me are comedians and they make comedy songs and they make funny songs. And then like that's like one thing. That's one way. That's comedy songs. Weird Al does parody songs. Yes. Where he makes like not novelty songs. He makes things that are like, you know, like specifically, you know, the song that it's based on and it's a funny take on the based on song, right? That thing. But then I believe novelty songs are stuff like they're not necessarily funny or like, like, like, you know, the ones that we brought up, like we were talking about these songs are like Monster Mash. The the the the the the the we thought of one. The purple. Pokeduck bikini. Yes. But even that we were short shorts. We were short shorts. Like those are not those to me. That's a novelty song where it is not a traditional song that then becomes a hit. Am I wrong in that? I don't know. Email me. Tell me why I'm wrong. Because I live every day to be told that I'm wrong. I feel like it's more whistles and like, you know, one of those pianos where you pull the string. Yeah, yeah. To me, that's what I love to be. I love to learn. I live to be corrected and I laugh when the audience is right and I'm wrong. Yeah. Also, go listen to the Reform Doors. Why not? Oh, yeah, they're great. By the way, what, you know, we got lots of things that we want to tell you to go do. But I saw this fucking amazing movie last night and I really want to tell people to go see it because it's not playing in many places. It is a musical documentary about Billy Preston.

And he had his gay relationships. I had no idea. And there's a lot of he has a lot of shady time. He did a lot of drugs, you know, but it's very interesting. And I think everyone should watch it out. Watch it if you get the chance. It was beautiful and I was honestly weeping half the movie. I was a regular Jimmy Carter in there. Oh, my peanuts. Yeah, my peanuts. I think he's overly empathetic. Oh, my peanuts. I also want to say a big shout out to neon Genesis seven Gellinian. I've been watching that with my wife and I've been sort of well, she's been kind of half paying attention.
