Adam's guest today, comedian Bruce Bruce, plus the news with me, Mike Dawson, and now Adam Corolla. Yeah, get it on, got to get it on, Dr. Bruce, I said, because I know a guy named Dr. Bruce Bruce. Is here, very funny standup comedian. I mean, planes, the name of his standup special on Netflix. It'll be March 3rd is when it comes out. It was right at the top when I turned it on last night. I tried to watch it and then I realized it's not out yet, but I saw the trailer and the trailer's funny, so welcome. Thank you. So you start off in Atlanta in a rough neighborhood. Very rough. And how does that work for you, like being in a rough neighborhood in Atlanta? What's the home situation like? Well, you know, when you live in a rough neighborhood, man, you got to know how to fight, or you got to know how to just talk about people. I couldn't fight, so I know how to talk and talk about people real bad. So that's what saved me in a lot of things, just talking about them, joning them out, making fun of them. That's what I did. A lot of people, a lot of comedians say, you know, I had to talk. I had to get my, I could spare, save myself from being beaten up if I could make this guy laugh. Absolutely. Absolutely. And then you get the reputation for that, and then you become a little bit of a protected species or something, right? And I realized I was really good at it. Well, it's kind of interesting. I was interviewing Pac-Man Jones not too long ago, and he was talking about the same kind of thing. But for him, he was a phenom athlete. Absolutely. And so their thing was, don't fuck with this guy. He's a phenom athlete, you know, even he's in the seventh grade. We him alone. So you get a little protected status, almost like being in prison and being protected versus being a pedophile, right? Absolutely, man. That's what Hullifee was. Hullifee was just a fighter, you know, in school, he just had to fight. And so he figured, hey, let me box a little bit and knock him out. That's an Atlanta guy, right? A Atlanta guy, yeah. You know what? He said, people thought I was kidding, but I really wasn't. And you're old enough to remember. When they said, there was a controversy about the Algerian female fighter who won the gold, but now everyone thought it was a male. And now kind of turns out maybe she was a male. And somebody wrote, we should take away her gold medal. And I wrote back and give it to a Vanderholly field. Okay. Because a Vanderholly field got gipped out of a gold medal because he knocked down some like skinny Hungarian fighter, something. He hit him a tenth of a second after the bell rang and knocked the guy out. And they literally gave the guy the win. And a Vander got, I think the bronze, an Evander would have cruised to a gold medal. But did they ever find out if that was a male or female? Did he knock down the Hungarian guy? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Was that a male or female? Oh, and it wasn't Nigerian. It was whatever I said it was. Uh, okay. They, they, they, what they found out is that he had the same ex-y chromosome and that maybe he lied. Or something. And who, I, I don't know. I'm so confused about who's the man and who's the woman. And their mission is accomplished. Because I'm just walking around trying to figure out people's pronouns. like, you know, it's one person, but their pronouns are they. Oh, yeah. And I don't know what to do anymore. But Algerian. I think Algerian. Algerian. Okay. And I don't know where that is either, but I know it's not in Nigeria. But if you're going to take the gold away, you give it to a van, because a van der should have won the gold. He got cheated out of the gold. I agree. I agree. And also, a van der is the only guy that wasn't scared of Mike Tyson. The only guy. Buster Douglas a little, but the only guy who basically said, I mean, let's give Buster his due too. But, but, but Holyfield, everyone thought you got to stay away from Mike Tyson, trying to keep away from Mike Tyson, you know, maybe in a large metropolitan city is possible, but not an 18 foot ring. He eventually catches up. Absolutely. He's backing up and now you're going to, going to bet. Oh, you going? A van der is the only guy who was like, fuck this guy. He better be scared of me. I'll see him in the middle of the ring and I'm going to trade. And I'll knock him out. Totally. He should worry about me knocking him out. And everyone else was like, are you sure, a van der? But a van der had the Lord on his side. Yeah, he did. But let me ask you this. Do you think he, a van der could have beat Mike Tyson at his prime 18, 19, 20 years old? I'm trying to think. I mean, you know, that is a thing with everybody, every prize fighter, oh, but Muhammad Ali in his prime, you know, and there's a lot of that. Yeah. But it's not like Tyson was old when he fought a van der. He was not in his 30s. I don't think. How old was their first fight? Tyson, Holyfield won. I now, he'd been in prison. Yeah. I think, and that'll slow you down a little bit. No, I think he was in better shape when he came out. You may be right. Yeah. I think it's unfair to Georgia's own van der Holyfield to say he didn't fight Tyson in his prime, even though Tyson was a very scary 21 year old dude. Yes, he was. And may have been 27 when he fought. But I'm sorry, Mike Tyson in his 20s is scary enough. Yes, it is for anybody. Yeah. Let's see, first fight, Tyson, Holyfield, Tyson was how old was 30, exactly 30. 30. All right, so not in his 20s, but Jesus, Holyfield was 34. Yes, he was. But Holyfield wasn't in his prime when he was 21. No, he wasn't. No, he was a cruiserweight. All right, but the point is, that was still a fit game 30 year old Mike Tyson. He beat. So let's give it vanderson. Yeah, I'm a vandophane. I'm a vandophane. We have to be from Atlanta, right? Absolutely. He should be the pride of Atlanta. Oh, yeah. What do we got now? Tyler Perry? Tyler Perry. He's not Atlanta though. He's from Louisiana. But he's got 2 million cubic feet of studio space over there. Oh, right. So he bought a military base. He bought a military base. In Atlanta and built this studio there. Have you been there? Yes, I've been there. Huge. It's very nice. Have you shot stuff there? No. And shot anything there. Just touring the base. Yeah, visit it and make sure you don't. It's good. Have you seen his house? No. Oh my goodness. Oh my God. It is amazing. What's this house like? Like a hotel. Mm-hmm. It's huge. The house is probably half a mile from the street. Mm-hmm. And it's huge. Helicopter pad. Landing strip pad. Everything. Oh yeah. A van or a holy field had a pretty big house. You know, the grass bought it. Requested for a couple of years. All right. So, you know, maybe this is just me talking. But at a certain point, you're throwing bad after good when you get a house. Like a house. I've lived here. Here's the thing about a house. I've lived in a big house. Okay. And I bought, and not, and then grew up in it. But I grew up in small houses. But I was able to buy a big house. And you don't think you need a big house. But what happens is, is you go, you don't, you don't, I mean, who needs more than 3500 square feet? That's enough space. And then you go, well, you want a gym, don't you? And you go, yeah, we nice to have a gym room. Okay. And you want a theater room, right? Yeah. I would like to have a theater room. And you want your own office, right? You don't want to share an office with your wife. Yeah, she should have her own office. Before you know it, you're at 7000 square feet. That's easy to get there. But once you get past 10,000, I feel like you're getting lost. There's rooms you've never been in. Well, before. A big house is just, it's upkeep is too much, you know, to keep it, you know, even taking care of the yard is, the maintenance on the house is just too much. My house, I live in Atlanta. It's me and my wife, that's it. It's too big. I mean, some rooms I don't even go in. How many square feet you got? 55 hundred square feet. That's a, that's a good size house. That's good size house, but I don't need all that. What would that house cost here? About two million. Yeah. Yeah, at least about two million. And you know, Regarance House, Holyfield Old House, he has 109 rooms in the house. That's my point. Holyfield's got too many rooms. 109 rooms. I don't know what you're doing those rooms. Nope. That's too much. There it is right there. Yeah. That's it. That's the back of it right there. It's crazy. Yeah. I have Holyfield. Is this the 84 Olympics? I do believe. Yes. Out here, 84 Olympics. I know where I was. I was building a house in Silver Lake. And guess who I saw carrying the torch? OJ. OJ, the Olympic torch, like a piperion, like through Silver Lake or whatever. He was one of the guys. Make sense, Los Angeles. Yeah. 1984. I mean, that guy's. He's got a guy's been trophy winner. USC is just up the street. He's California boy. He's carrying that torch. OJ, what was the man? He was. He was. Um, people don't, people forget, like they catch these people and they're sort of fall from grace, you know, Bill Cosby, OJ, Weinstein. You guys forget at the height of their powers how popular and powerful. Super pop. People were. Yes, they were. I mean, you forget how popular Bill Cosby was. He was, man. He was the most popular. He wasn't the most popular black person. He was just the most popular person for a long time. Yes, he was. Yes, he was. All right. Let's see if we got the end. So this is, I believe he gets disqualified. The guy he knocks out goes to the gold medal round and an, and an, and a van der gets the bronze in the, in the bronze fight, the second fight. But this is to see who goes to the gold medal round. Let's see. That's throwing him away and he has got another public warning. That's warning the other dude. He's got to be very careful now because one more warning and he's out. He's hanging on. Oh, he's got him. He just knocked the guy. Yes, he did. So this man threw another punch just as he did before and Barry is hurt. So the ref was pushing him off when he threw a left hook. And then it's finished with five seconds remaining in the second round. And Barry is beaten. But I can tell you that that was done with a punch after the referee. It said stop. Oh, so the ref, it wasn't after the bell. It was the ref separating them saying stop and a van der through a left hook and the guy couldn't continue except for the guy who can't continue is the guy who went on to the gold medal round. And also they do say protect yourself at all times. Absolutely. I like a clean hit to me. It is a clean hit except for we can't tell if the ref said stop. Right. That's the thing. Now the question is, is the this guy must have gone on and law. I'll tell you the happiest guy in the world, the guy who was waiting to see who won this fight to go to the gold to get the gold. Because you got the skinny white guy with the glass jaw and not the guy who went on to knock out Tyson. Yeah. Oh, who won that gold? That's the question. So van der got chipped and we should get the Algerian chick and give a van der. You know what I agree with you. Would you agree? That seems sensible right? Yeah. Or they could fight it out. Never know. We don't know if it's a man or a woman. Well we know van der's a man. Yes we do. And a van der's like 60, right? No, a van der 63. Oh 63. Oh 63. You know. Oh yeah. So but the question is, is could the 63 year old a van der Holyfield handle the 27 year old flyweight who won the gold? That's a deep question. I don't know about that one. He's still in good shape though. I feel like he could. You think of him? He's a good guy. He's got a hunt. Well I don't know what he's walking around at now. Evander. Wait for his weight. Yeah. No he's not big at all. He hasn't got big at all. He's still the same weight. Okay. Oh yeah. That's good. So you, where'd you shoot the special? I didn't Chicago May 3rd, 2025. And Chicago was great. He's airing this year to down 26 March 3rd. And it's going plain and it's really good. It is. I mean, at least from what I saw, I tried to watch it. Like I said, it's not coming out yet. Who won the gold in 84 and was it not the guy who a van der knocked out. But either way, also, Evander had like a wholeness hard or something, but God healed it. Oh, yeah. Much good. Are you religious? Yeah. Of course. Well, you don't have to be. Well, you don't, but I believe in God. Good. Yeah. So you grow up in a rough neighborhood. Yeah. And how do you grow up? What's the family like? My head is mother didn't play any games. You know, if I grew up around all type of drugs, any drug that you want to name, I grew up around it. But my mother said, if you touch it, I will kill you. So I was almost scared of my mother than the guys in the street. So I wasn't going to touch it. And I didn't touch it. And I never been on drugs, never, ever. And then you went on right, hold on. And you're spovic of Yugoslavia one, but he won the gold. But was that the guy? We don't know if that was the guy. He knocked. I'm trying to find out who won. Who knocked? Who knocked? Is it the guy, Evander knocked out, which has got to be a weird way to win a gold medal. Yeah. He beat Kevin Barry. Kevin Barry's the guy he got knocked out, right? He was like Australian guy or something like that. Oh, I mean, just imagine that. You're sitting around going, am I going to fight Kevin Barry, unknown guy from Australia or Evander Holyfield for the gold medal and Evander Holyfield gets disqualified and you get this spindly guy from Australia. Yeah, that's not cool. Well, it's good for you if you want. Oh, New Zealand, sorry. New Zealand. Yeah, same place to me. Yeah. So when you get out of the neighborhood, how do you get out of the neighborhood? Well, I just moved out. When I got 18, I got to go to high school and I moved out. Got a job and started to still hip in my mother and just started doing comedy. And I knew this was where I should have been my whole entire life when I went on stage for the first time. Really? Yeah. When she got on stage for the first time, 36 years ago. You know the times and the dates. Absolutely. 36 years ago. 36 years ago, man. We working for Frito Lab. Yes, I was. I was working for him. How do you, what would you do over there? I was selling chips, you know, driving the truck going from store to store delivering chips and doing comedy at the same time and imitating all the bosses at Frito Lab. You know, we had fun on a dock. I'm taking all the big bosses thought they was the joint, you know what I mean? So you had a, like a, or a morning day job and you could go out and do comedy at night. Absolutely. We had to be at a warehouse at five in the morning. Yeah. And then, you know, we go delivery and I come home and go deliver, I go down in, tell jokes at the company club. Sometimes my car was broke, I drove the truck to the company club. Oh, really? Yes, I did. The Frito Lab. I told you that. I'm about to tell you about it. But I drove the truck there. So you're going out doing comedy at night, working, but it's tough because you got to get a put for in the morning. Absolutely, man. Absolutely. But I did it and I enjoyed it. And I still enjoy comedy the day. I travel every week right now and I still enjoy it like if I started yesterday. That's important. Yeah. I feel the same way. You couldn't pay to stand up and tell jokes. Absolutely. And how bad could that be? You know, years ago, I asked BB King before he passed. I said, you ever think you'd stop playing? He said, no. He said, when God called me home, I stopped. My mom played to the day I died. Yeah. And he did. Well, because I think there's a lot of comedians or some comedians, there's some country singers or some everything who like the idea, but they don't really want to do it because it's not really in them. They just look for reasons not to do it. And I don't get that. I mean, either. I think Willie Nelson's the easiest thing. 94 years old. Yeah. And then and people go like, when are you going to retire? Why should you stop doing something you love doing? For what? Just to get paid. Absolutely. So you, but when do you start getting paid to do comedy? Well, I was getting paid, but not getting paid. Yeah. I go down and do the amateur night. I get $25 and sometimes $50. Right. And I think I started getting paid probably about five years later. So I'm making a little money. I like, I can do this. You know, I'm working free to lay 55, 60 hours a week and I go on stage and work 30 minutes and make just as much as I did and free to lay for 55 to 60 hours a week. Right. So that didn't balance out to me. Right. I'm going to do comedy. Yeah. How much of it was a financial decision? None of it. I did it for the love. I did it for the love. I didn't think about the money. I just thought about I enjoyed doing this. Well, you thought we were just, you just said you thought about it. Yeah, I thought about it, but I didn't think about the money. I didn't think I'd make the money that I'm making today. Right. But now I know how the game has played. I'm going to make the money. How's the Netflix special come about? Because that's a dream for most comedians. Well, my agency, my management, you know, they say it was time to do it. Netflix was interested and they didn't regret it because it's doing and it's going to do very well. Did Netflix approach you guys? Did you guys approach Netflix? How did you get on the radar? How came together, you know, the agency had people that they represented and they say, hey, how about Bruce Bruce? Netflix, like, yeah, we love the happen. And that's how it went. So did you over the years open for folk, fans, other comedians? Yeah, but we know about. Yeah, I've opened up for BB King, opened up for Bobby Blue Blan and opened up for Maris Day in the time. And I enjoyed that man just to meet those guys out. I did a tour with Erkwood and Fire and the Isle of Brothers. And it was just to realize that it was fun, but then they knew me. So that was the fun part about it. Trying to remember the Isle of Brothers yet, and that a bunch of heads. Oh, yeah. Not as big as Earth, Wind, and Fire. But Earth, Wind, and Fire. So you got to watch up Earth, Wind, and Fire concert every night. Every night. And the Isle of Brothers. And the Isle of Brothers. I was talking to... Oh, I was talking to JJ Walker. Jimmy JJ Walker. To my Jimmy Walker? From the time? From the time. JJ Walker. Oh, yeah. It was a nice guy. Totally nice guy. Super nice guy. And he was telling me about these cruises he'd do, where he'd MC, and it was like sound a soul, 60 soul, and whatever. And it started talking about these bands. Like I would always laugh. Like the coasters formed in like 1954, and there's still five guys in the coasters and they're 28 years old. And he'd say, oh, yeah, they would just cycle right out. The guy's nephew would be the lead singer. But they would present themselves as the coasters. What's the coasters? Or even maybe... I don't know. Maybe the temptations, maybe the Isle of Brothers. I don't know. Like I said, and I was basically saying, I don't white bands can't really do that. They can replace a guy or two, but you can't just cycle it through and keep the name and have it go all the way through. The coasters formed in the early 50s and they're booked somewhere this weekend. That's cool. And that's 75 years later. There can be no original coasters anywhere near that band. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Right. But it's kind of interesting because it'd be fun. It doesn't work in other things. Like Dave Chappelle can't just give his act to his nephew and his nephew got there, advertises Dave Chappelle. Can't do that. You can't do it. And you can't really do it if you're the Eagles. I mean, you kind of can, but you have to have some of the main guys in there. But the black bands from the 50s and the 60s, they just keep going with the name. It's like the names like internet intellectual property. But I said brothers are still together. They're still together. Yes, they are. And earth we're going to fire a few of them have passed away. But they're still together. Same group. They got new members like maybe the drummer, maybe the good top player or maybe a horn player. But for the most part, earth we're going to find out. Brothers still together. Homes.com. Some might say homes.com is the best home shopping site. And it may be homes.com super comprehensive and transparent agent directory. Or maybe it's at homes.com is the only site that always directly connects you with the listing agent who knows the home the best. Perhaps it's because homes.com has the most in depth neighborhood content of any home shopping site that's extensively researched to highlight the personality of each neighborhood. Homes.com goes above and beyond to bring home shoppers the in depth info they need to find the right home homes.com. That's homes.com. We've done your homework. I'm done. With movies like Interstellar, Dreamgirls and Gladiator. And TV shows like Survivor, SpongeBob SquarePants, the fairly odd parent and ghost. Pluto TV is always free. Pluto TV. Stream now. Pain ever. I'm reading the screen here. It says the doors continue to the doors. But they don't get that I've never seen no one. No one would buy a ticket to the doors thinking they're seeing the doors. Do they? I mean, they had. I mean, they kind of did it. Ah, God. With Leonard Skinnerd, but that became Rosenton Collins or something. But anyway, let's not let's not go that deep. So opening for ban. Now, it's open for bands. Good or bad? It's good. And it's easier. It's easier. You know, people when they come to see or when a fire, oh, a band in general, they just come to have fun. And so you can just basically do anything on stage. They're going to laugh. Like church people are very easy to make laugh. Uh-huh. They're very easy. Church people. Oh, yeah. People go to church all the time. Because now, comedy is in the churches now. It is. Yeah, a lot of people are doing comedy churches and it's really good. They are. Clean comedy. Clean comedy. You got to be clean now. You can't go in there using profanity, you know, with the preacher and everything. It would be a problem. Do you do clean versus other comedy? Do anything. I can do clean. It's easy. But when you go into the, I mean, when you go into church, you got to be clean. Oh, super clean. Squeaky clean. But it's easy. It's easy. It's easy to do. I know your car guy. I am. And most of the time with car guys, I'm prepared to be disappointed because they end up just going, they end up being, there's two kind of car guys I don't like. Okay. There's the, I bought a brand new Lamborghini and just got it wrapped and put rims on it. And I'm like, you don't even know. And then you say to that guys, I got the V10 or the V12 and they go, I don't know. It's like, all right, well, then you're not, you're not a car guy. You're a rich guy who bought an expensive car and had it wrapped. And then there's the, that's kind of the black version. And then the white version is the Mo-par guy. He just wants a hammy. Everything is hammy, hammy, hammy. But I like car guys a little more interesting and you are in the Buick's. I like Buick. Which is interesting because I've never really met car guys. There's the Japanese guys, there's the Porsche guys, there's the American muscle guys, there's the Mo-par guys. And then there's sort of the brand new Lamborghini with the exhaust system and the wrap on it, guys, I hate those guys. I've not really come across the Buick guys. Don't sleep on Buick's. Buick's. I'm New York's are cool. Oh, they was fast too. They were really fast. 1970 Buick's Skylar GS Stage 1 was one of the faster production cars. Jormotors produced. So how'd you get into Buick? My granddaddy, he always said, get your Buick. You know what I'm doing? Get your Buick and he had a 56 Buick road master back in the day. That's a big car. Big car. Three speed on the tree. You know what I'm talking about. I do. That is one of the biggest cars made of Buick. It was smooth, man. I just always, and I start watching Buicks and I start watching the horsepower that they made and I own a few Buicks, man. Old ones. You have River Eris? I have a 63 River Eris. I have a 69 River Eris. I have a 70 River Eris. I have a 70 Wildcat convertible. I have a 68 Ducson Accord. I have a 685 Skylar convertible. I have a 68 Skylar convertible GS. I have a 68 Skylar hardtop GS. Wow. I got 10 Buicks. You keep them at the house? Yeah, I got a big shop. I keep them in. They sure run. Oh, sure. Have you restored any of them? All of them. I restored all of them. Except for when the 68 Buick electric 225, I bought it at 55,000 miles on it original. And how about it? The guy was driving and I say, hey, if you're not a Buick man, you need to sell that car. He looked me and said, you want a bad? I said, yeah, I bought it from him. Oh, really? Yeah. To saw him out in the street? So, I mean, the street was clean. Really? Yeah, he got it from somebody. But it was clean. You sit on the front seat like you're on the living room, so for a... Bill Buicks. I don't know a ton about the market for Buicks, but it strikes me. You could probably still find them. Find some deals. Oh, yeah. They're not as expensive. Oh, yeah, they're very expensive. Well, no, what? Cadillac is getting expensive. The vintage stuff. Real expensive now. And Chrysler's getting real expensive, like the 3,000 in that sort of department. Buicks probably still reasonable, even though it's getting expensive now. Yeah, it's very high. How much is a... It's like a nice 70-sky-lark. 70-sky-lark convertible GS, stage 1 car. It'll run you 100 grand. Really? Oh, yeah. Wow. Oh, yeah. I didn't know that gone up that fast. And they're extremely fast. People don't know, but they're extremely fast. Yeah, I mean, I guess everything's getting expensive. Everything. Everything. But I like forward trucks. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Like vintage? No, I like newer forward trucks. I like to do forward trucks. The diesels, the power strokes, they pull. Well, guess who has a 350 diesel duly? I got you. This podcast, they're right. You have one? Oh, yeah. I have one, too. You got to have one to tell. Oh, yeah. If you want to pull, you better get it forward. Yeah. Oh, so you're telling these cars around? Oh, yeah. We got a trailer and everything. Where are you taking them? I'm taking them to car shows. You're not taking them off the trailer and crank them up. Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop. And I go around. I don't do car shows with young guys. I do them with older guys. Are there some pictures on the internet of this? No. Nine. Nine? I got a ton of pictures. People don't even know I have those cars. Hmm. But they're just for my personal use. I like it because it's off the beaten path. Yeah. It's not what I'd expect. Yeah. That's good. If you ex I like forward trucks, I got a forward. I got a bunch of forward trucks. I got a duly. I got two lightenings. I have two Shelby trucks. I have an excursion. I have a... You got the Shelby truck. I have two. I have two. I have two of those. And I have a sailing truck. Steve Celine. Yes, sir. Yeah. Yeah, I've been to his shop. It's funny because he's known for Mustangs. Yeah. But he did a truck. Yeah. That's kind of interesting. It's cool. You know the one you're missing? What's that? The Evil Can Evil truck. Was it a forward? Yeah. Now you got a look, Dawson. Forward and it may have just been with Galpin Ford. I don't know, but they did a Harley Davidson truck. I had one of those. Oh, you do? Oh, okay. I used to have a Ford GT. You know what that is? Not a Mustang. No, no, I know it a Ford GT. I know it. Well, I know what all cars are, but I got to tell you, a Buick, I'm not an expert at. But you had a Ford... What year is your Ford GT? Oh, six. So you had the original. Yeah. Oh, not the original. They made it in the 60s, the GT 40. Yeah, yeah. They had a old six, a canary, a lot of solid though. I had it for like seven years and then they had like 800 miles on it. That was a good car. Yeah, very good car. You made some money off that car. I did. Because there were 150, 160 when there were new. No, it was more than that. The original MSRP was more than 150, 200,000 for my. Well, you may have paid a little premium. Yeah, but they was priced at about 300,000. Well, I'm sorry. So there's the, there's the sticker price. But if the dealer, if it's a hot item, and they will tack 50 grand on to the price of the sticker. So I'm saying the sticker was probably buck 50, buck 60. But if you wanted to get a car like that, and you didn't want to wait in line, they'd sell for like 225 or something. Yeah, I have something like that. When I ordered it, I had it built. I actually watched them build it online. Oh, really? Yes. It's a bitch in car. Yes. Extremely fast. I agree. Supercharged V8 mid-engine. Oh, man, it was something serious. Yes. And the new one is the newer one. It's a V6 turbocharged twin turbo. A100 horsepower. Yeah, it's a really cool piece. Yeah. I, uh, out. So how many evil, four F-150s today make is the evil couldn't evil is the question. Because like I said, the Harley Davidson, you had that. Yeah. The Steve Celine, the Celine one you got. Lightning. Then there's a lightning. Raptor. Raptor, right? The V8 of the V6. I got a V6. That's the, that's the newer one. Yeah, twin turbos. Right. Then, uh, then there was the, let's say with you Harley Davidson. Uh-uh, Shelby. And then the only one you may be missing, unless there's some sort of Eddie Bauer addition, I don't know on the other truck. You don't need that. That wasn't a fast truck. No. It's luxury. No. The only one you may be missing is the evil, can evil truck. Evil couldn't evil. I was serious. Is there an evil, can evil for it F-150 for sale anywhere? And like, what are they trading for? Because this could be your next purchase. Because this, evil couldn't evil. This would add very nicely to your, uh, to your collection of, uh, Ford F-150 trucks. All right. Where is it? How many? Who did it? Gotta be on the, gotta be there. Gotta be right there. Let's see. Only ten units from 2002, the F-150, evil, con evil gladiator addition. Really? We're produced, created by Galpin Ford. All right. So that was a one-off Galpin Ford thing. Customized, super crew trucks, featured red, white, and blue theme, supercharged 5.4 liter V8 engines, custom interior touches that pay tribute to the motorcycle, uh, motorcycle, they're devil. Wow. Well, they made only ten. So these things gonna be hard to find. Yes, that's what I'm, what I'm saying. Because in a, in a world of, cars, uh, 500 is a small number. Yeah. Right? Yeah. Is your wife pissed that you got all these cars? No. She doesn't care. She does say, why are you having so many cars? Yes. I was like, well, you have so many shoes. Hmm. So I shit that down. Smart. You, you're paying for the cars, right? Any shoes? Oh, that's a good point. Yeah. I've felt that with women before. They want to know why you're in the cars. I'm, I'm like, I don't know. I'm into it. Like Bill Shatter's into horses. So what? That's what he wants. I like cars. That's right. I don't do anything else. So, leave me alone. You ever go out and, uh, do one of those, uh, high speed driving courses? No. Or any of that stuff. No. And I love drag racing. And, uh, Well, then you need to GNX. A Buick. Yeah. I have one. You have one. I had a G. I didn't have a GNX. I had a Grand National. I had a Grand National. Yeah, I sold it though. You all right? You want a couple of waters? No, I'm good right now. Okay. Yeah. You sold your Grand National. I did. You know, you can't let them turbo sit up too much. That's an expensive Buick now. Oh, yes, it is. Yes. Yes, and a very fast car. Yeah. Well, you said, Uh, the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy said the same guy guys should become experts at certain things and then they end up being that, that guy. Oh yeah. So you travel, you open for earth when fire, Isoli brothers, other comedians? Oh, all the time. I bet on tour with all comedians. Yeah. Impress us with some of these and that. Bert Kershaw was one. I'll wrap it up for him, yeah. He's very funny, very nice. He's super nice. Oh man, super nice and still some tickets. Oh yeah, when were you out with him? I was out with him a couple years ago. We did Gorge Washington, never heard of it in my life. And he did 20,000 people. Incredible. I mean, he did Salt Lake City, Utah, 20,000 people. Wow. You know, it was just like simple for him. And he's such a great guy. And when I went to Gorge Washington, I was on the black guy there. Only. Oh yeah. It wasn't even a black guy cleaning up. Yeah. I walked on stage and I said, hey, got a question. Is yeah, I said, man, I want a black guy here. Is it, yeah, I said, okay, I'm going to do my thing. And he showed me a little. Yeah. Well, you know, he's such a nice guy, Bert is. And his audience is probably reflects that. Yeah, it does. And when we went to Gorge, all the thing I saw was cherry trees and apple trees. I love cherries. The guy picked me some. The guy said, you want some cherries? He wouldn't get some. He wouldn't get some cherries. Yeah. I think it's a nice fresh. Who else you open for? Well, I've been with Martin Lawrence. You know what I'm saying? I've been with Jamie Foxx. I've been with, never did anything with De Chappelle. I've been with Steve Harvey. I've been with Jantney Brown. I think of Jamie Foxx as a genius. He is. And very talented. Well, that's what I'm talking about. I think he's like the most talented guy. Desiree Charles when he did the movie Ray. He turned into Ray Charles. He did a great job and then he was really good in Django. Oh yeah. Oh man, Django was a great movie. You know, it's funny. You know, I was sort of totally great and I love Quentin Tarantino. I do too. And I'm watching In Glorious Basters. I've watched Have It last night. I watch The Other Half Tonight. I love that movie. Christoph Walts' actin' in three languages in that movie. Django's amazing. You know what I was thinking of myself? I always thought of Leonardo DiCaprio's a little bit of a pretty boy or young guy or lightweight or something, but you start to watch him and you go, oh man, this guy is so good. He was so good in Django. Yes he was. And I mean, Christoph Walts was great. And Jamie, I mean everybody. In that point in Django, you know when he pulled his skeleton skull hit out and you know when he hit the table, he actually cut his hand. Oh yeah, yeah, that's right. And he kept acting. Yeah, yeah. He kept acting. Yeah. And that's the pro in him. He's good. God. Now I want to watch Django, but I'm ready. You got to go do it again. I'm right. I've watched it three times. I don't watch it two. I know what you know. No, sorry, I said three. I meant seven. Yeah. That, but but in glorious bastards so good too. Oh yeah. Those guys are so good. Yeah. I, it's hard. It's just, I'm a huge Tarantino fan. I am too. He's really, he's the only guy where I'm waiting for his next movie. The other guys I'm happy to watch, but I'm not waiting. Let me tell you what I like about him. He's not scared to go there. Mm-hmm. He doesn't care what nobody say. He's going to put the truth out and make it right. That's what I like about him. Well, he also does a lot of stuff where you just think about choices. He makes like, if you go like in pulp fiction, when what's her name goes, uma, Thorvin goes, are you a square? She puts her fingers out and does a square and they animate it. And then it falls down to the ground. Right. That seems weird to do in the middle of a movie is to animate a square. Mm-hmm. You know what I mean? It's like it says choice. Because it's a very gritty realistic movie with lots of violence and everything else. Why when she does her fingers square, we know what she's talking about. Like, your square. Mm-hmm. Why did half did like animate it and then have it fall down the ground? It's just a crazy, it's a choice that nobody else would ever make. And other people would go like, well, maybe you don't want to do that because kind of taking people out of the movie because it's not happening in real life or whatever. Does it works? It works well. Brilliant. But every once in a while he puts himself in the movie and it does pump you. He was in Django. I know he was in Django at the end. He's one got blown up. It does pump you a little bit. What are you talking about, Blackie? I told you guys. What do you talk about? Blackie. Ah, now I kind of want to see Django. Go look at it again. You're like, I've seen a million times. I just, in the middle of, in glorious bastards. Yeah. It's just really, man. It's crazy how evil people could be. Yes they are. It is not. They were evil. It is crazy. And it's also kind of refreshing to see lots of people. A fight evil. The square was an homage to the Flintstones. It was an homage to the Flintstones. Huh. Why was it an homage to the Flintstones? I didn't try to think where the square was on the Flintstones. I can usually make a connection. But I, Andrew, you got to get on the mic and say, why the square was an homage. See, don't be a square. Rectangle drawing scene and pulp fiction is an homage to a similar moment in the animated series, the Flintstones. When the sermon draws a square in the air, often interpreters a rectangle to signify being bored or conventional. Huh. Had to do with the Flintstones, huh? Because they're right outside Jack Rabbit Slims. It's that pop culture restaurant. That's it's just part of it. Why I don't get how the Flintstones are part of it though. Because when they go into the restaurant, there's all these pop culture references. Buddy Holly, Richard Nixon, Jane Mansfield. Right. It's just it's it's that was the square and homage to the Flintstones. Because Quentin Tarantino packs his movies with the Modges to pop cultures. Like the dance scene is yeah, but there's a scene in the Flintstones where they do that. Yes, that's that's what he's directly referencing. Cause there are no Flintstones in the in the Jack Rabbit Slims, but there must be a Flintstone reference somewhere. Yeah, well, I grew up out here. So and he grew up out here. So like when he does once upon a time in Hollywood and I see the plumbing van Jack Stefan plumbing go down the street. I think about here in those commercials when I was like when I was like a kid. What are your top five movies all time? That's a good one. Of course, Ray with Jamie Fox, Django. Let me see as a few of them that I love. What are the comedies for instance? I like radio. Radio because I'm an in Harris fan. Where in that coach? Roby, but Ray is not a comedy. No, no, it's not a comedy. It was just one of the movies that I like with Cuba, goodie Jr. You know, and then in Harris played there. Sure. Comedy. I ain't it's not too much. I like comedy. I like the money talks with Chris Tucker. And she that was excellent. You find yourself watching more dramas than comedy because you feel like you do. Comedy. Why like comedy and action? So when you got those two together, you got my attention. Uh huh. You know, if you you fight like Chris Tucker and you exactly, exactly. That's what you're like. I like that. Hmm. Flintstones with a square. I've no idea. By the way, Andrew, the Jackrabbit slim spards, not that, that part I got, but I didn't know this were pulp fiction. Uh, saturated and fifths in pop culture. Iron icons Elvis. Yeah. Right. Elvis and Marilyn Monroe and Buddy Holly, but the Flintstones is the one I was thinking of. That's in there. The whole movie's just reference. Yeah, I know, but you're the Flintstones TV series. Mia makes a square. Okay. So I was just to the Flintstones. Yeah, I'm just. I'm just saying that that's. Yeah. I get the Jackrabbit slim spars. All right. Now we got to find that seems Flintstones. We're not going to do it. All right. Bruce, how do you get to Bruce Bruce? There is an Isaac Bruce. Well, it's, you know, my mother, you say I have to call my mother to say if I got to call you the third time because she used to call me twice. Mm hmm. And she said, let me do it a third time. It's going to be a problem. So it's how I went about Bruce Bruce. Mm hmm. Yeah. The special I ain't playing. It's available on Netflix. Absolutely. That'll be a March their live dates coming up. Funny bone. Liberty Township. Oh, huh. February 27, 28th. That's coming up this. No, next week. Next. That's right. And for details, we go to the website, right? Yes, sir. Bruce dash Bruce dot com.

We found the Flintstone, Wilma, doing the Squaresville with their fingers that made the dots that was like a pulp fiction, which I never remember from the Flintstones. I'm curious how Andrew knew about this. Maybe he knows too much about Tarantino. Maybe he knows a lot about Tarantino. I'd say more about Tarantino movies than about the Flintstones. All right, here we go. This is sir. I got it from a reliable source. High five is really a square. No, you mean like four corners? That's exactly what it is. There it is. There's the square. And it's forever. All right. I can't see if anybody can tell me if anyone can make sense of this. They're parts of life where I truly go. I don't really know what that was. I don't know what that was. So I go last weekend. I'm in Colorado up in the mountains doing a corporate thing. And it's snowing outside. It's beautiful. Resorts beautiful and everything. And I tell Mike, I'll meet you down at 7am. The car's going to pick us up at 7am. OK. I get down there, I don't know, 6.58 and a half or something. Mike usually beats me to the car, but he's a couple minutes behind. And so it's 7am. And there's no action in front of this thing. And it's cold outside. And so there's a big black suburban with the hatch open. And by the way, can I say this is a courtesy or whatever. The guy who's the professional driver, he's got the hatch open. All right. We're going to come down with a luggage. He's got both doors open because we're going to get in the car. And it's parked there. It's nine degrees outside. I would like you to shut the doors and shut the hatch, crank up the heat. Yeah. When we show up, you could open the door and we could go into the SUV. That makes perfect choice. Or we'll open it ourselves. But this thing is freezing inside because both doors are open and the hatch is open. And it's 6.58. And it's 11 degrees outside. So I would say he's doing it as a courtesy prep. I'm saying you're actually doing the opposite of a courtesy because it's freezing inside of this SUV. But I see the SUV. And I go, all right. Well, this has got to be our car because the hatch is open and the dudes are driver. And there's no other cars. So I come rolling up with Mike here, expecting to see Mike in there. But Mike's two minutes behind me. And so I go rolling in there and I go, I think this is my car. And he goes, Mike, and I go, yeah, yeah, Mike. Because that's just under Mike's name, right? And I go, OK. And I throw my bags in the back and he goes, Mike Hunt, are you making a joke? Are you doing a jerky boy's been here? Yeah, yeah. And he goes, Mike Hunt, and I go, so now it's weird because I just threw my shit in the car. Right. Mike Dawson, fairly popular name. I'm not sure amongst middle aged dudes. Yeah. And I just could be Mike Hunt's car. And so I'm like, Mike Hunt, I go, are you doing that joke? Yeah. Are you doing that jerky boy's thing? And I go, and then at some point he goes, Mike August, and I go, yeah, Mike August. And he goes, OK, yeah. And he still thinks I'm Mike August at this point. But I go, OK. And then so I go, yeah, let me go grab Mike Hunt or August and I go into lobby. Mike's coming out. I go, Mike, what is this? Why is he saying Mike Hunt? I don't know. Is he screw it? Is somebody screwing with him? Is he screwing around? But that has to be like August. That had to be on the piece of paper. So he had like a weird Tourette's like moment with the Mike Hunt. It would make sense if you, if he was trying to trick you. Nobody knows. I don't say so. But here's the conformation that you weren't. But here's the comedy. So I'm always putting these positions where I'm like, should I get my luggage out of Mike Hunt's SUV and go look for my SUV, which is not here. And then where's Mike Hunt? Right. Right. And then why would Mike August be Mike Hunt? Anyway. So we get in the car and it's the exact same thing. We're about an hour and a half away from the Denver airport, right? And I now Denver has a killer centurion lounge. And I got the black card. The black card means you go in front of everybody. You have your own special area. And you get like a six year old bottle of Scotch or a top shelf champagne for a drink. You get a, you get the thing. But I'm like, look, it's early morning. There's nobody on the roads. And if this guy puts his foot into it a little, we're going to get an extra 10 minutes at that lounge. Right. So I do what I do all the time. I just sit in the back and I go, listen, you drive as fast as you want. And we want you to drive fast. And do you will not hear? There's nobody in this car that's going to complain. Mike drives like a Mike hunt drives like a maniac. And I ride shotgun with them everywhere and I don't care. So go for it. Smash cut to every single time we're going to free with dirt guys blasting by in many vans and Prius is just blasting. Just we got passed by 86 cars on the way the airport and did you say something at a certain point when like four of them passed this all at once. Like at some point it was getting a little dangerous because these guys were splitting, going right, going left. It's just like literally I said to him, I just go, you know, we can pick it up. These guys are, you know, they're driving minivan. And they're, this isn't the Ferrari club of Denver. This is moms and aerostars. Like guys in gardening trucks is blasting. But like, we can pick it up. Okay. It's like, first of why? Why? Why? Here's what I'm saying. Why can't I say? Here's what I want and then you do it. Why are you just going to do exactly? Does that, now you could say, look, no one will ever do this. There's a white guy, middle age guy. You can go, listen, I drive for a living. If I get tickets, it's going to hurt my living. Right. But it's 75 between, you know, the highway to Denver airport, 75s. I'll do it at 85. How about that? I'd go, okay, they never say anything. They just drive. And then we just have cars blasting past and I smack Mike in the fucking thigh all the way back. What the fuck with the fuck with the fuck? But by the way, why can't you, as an adult, white American, hear what somebody said in the back of the car and then just fucking do it? Right. It's, we're living in a time where it's like, if you get into a, if you say, you know, I'm quarterback, go 10 yards, break hard, left and go, you just see a guy's back running to the end zone and you go, what did, what did we talk about? Like, no. So there was that. There's also that guy probably just enjoys driving too much. I, at least, and I'll say, I'll say, I'll say here, what that guy does. That guy does what that guy does and that's what he does. And, and he's 61 and pick, pick in me and Mike hunt up. At five, thirding the morning at a, at a place. So there's a reason why he's where, where he is. That's the only thing that really gives me major anxiety is when people don't drive as fast as they should. It drives me nuts, especially when every minute we spend in the back of that SUV, there's one minute we're not going to spend in that lounge, which had an omelet bar by the way. Oh, geez. All right. I also took a picture from the plane because I had this couple dudes, but maybe in a couple, this sort of big dude sitting next to us in the first class and of course they brought their, their dog. They had their dog. There, there's, it said service dog on this pug. Yeah. At a certain point, it's the pug with the super curly tail, you know? Yeah. And at some point, it got up and it was just on the guy's lap the whole time and then whatever. And at some point, it got up and turned. It's got the pug tail. And I just was like, Mike, I'm sitting in first class staring at a dog's asshole. Yeah. That's what I'm doing. That's what I'm doing. So these guys want to fly with their dog. And the pug staring me down. Yeah. That's Mike's at service. What service does that dog provide? I sat with these gentlemen for a damn near three hours and I have no idea. It sat on their lap. It doesn't provide any. No, it's, I want to fly with my dog and I'm going to tell people that I have an emotional issue. Right. But anyway. Anyway. All right. So there was that. There was Mike Hunt, which I still don't know. Make zero sound. I got, I got an argument with someone online because or not, I don't know, someone online. The online community because somebody had posted that Boston was not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Correct. And Eddie Trunk tweeted that. I read that. That's right. He did that tweet. Oh, okay. And then I think you saw it that way. Yeah. And I was like, and Joan Jett is. And people are like, here, I will add Joan Jett to the list of the velvet underground in Lou Reed and the Beastie Boys. I want, I want to find any Rolling Stone critic to just go. Joan Jett, she, her hits were cover songs and she didn't write anything. She wasn't it. She didn't. And people look, she was, she was a pioneering, she fuck it sucks. She's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with two cover songs. And then when, I love it when people make the case for them. They go, oh, she also had Cherry Bomb. It's just like, it's just a stupid little anti-social diddy. And then they list three other songs I've never heard in my life and no one has ever heard. Right. Like, here's the whole thing with Joan Jett. You make the case. Tell me why. No one ever, no one can do it. And Ted Nugent's not in. So it doesn't, it's not a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It's a, it's a complete affirmative action. Bullshit lesbian. If she wasn't a lesbian, she would not be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There's no if-ands or buts about it. It would be impossible. If she was not a lesbian, she would most assuredly not be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. If she wasn't a woman, she would never. There's no male version of Joan Jett. Okay. There's a male version of Joan Jett. I got two crappy hits. They're both covers. And that's about it. Yep. Yeah. And to bolster your argument a little bit more, I'm not sure if Pat Benatar finally got in last week, but Pat Benatar has been repeatedly snubbed by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. If she was a lesbian, are you kidding me? She got more girls interested in Rock and Roll than Joan Jett ever did. And she is happily married to her guitar player slash producer for the last 40 years. Yeah. So if she was a lesbian, she'd be in. Yeah. All right. News. What do you got? Craziness in Minnesota, transgender Minnesota law breaker, a lawmaker, ignited an online firestorm after bizarrely arguing against age limits, against age limits on porn sites. Claiming queer kids need access to the x-rated content for educational purposes. State rep, Lee Fink, a two-term Democrat, identifies as a woman, pushed back against a proposal that requires age checks on porn websites. Here's what she said. You mentioned the Paxing case. And the AGs in many states are very clear about that they're almost jubilant about being able to use these laws to ban young people from accessing content that could be educational. If they are queer, and you are principal, you have LGBT students in your school, and we also know that they're not receiving sex education for queer kids. We know that pre-reant interest could be, for many people, the very existence of transgender kids. More and more people are saying there simply are no transgender kids. I mentioned it. Mm. So they're victims. It's an insane... There's no way I thought when I was a kid that I was going to spend the line share of my adult life hearing about either Muslim terrorist groups I couldn't pronounce or fucking dumb shit Americans arguing about gays and trans, right? And lesbian. I'd never thought that this would be my adult life. I was hearing he, she dumb shit people with mental cases just argue and argue and argue about we should have the flag. Didn't the gay flag should be above the White House and represented at the Olympics. Oh God. Right. How many transgender people are even out there? We are completely insane that we've taken this population of 0.001 percent and made it the talking point for everything. We never argue about taxes or potholes or like any of the shit I would care about. I would like a non-stop dialogue about all the stuff I wanted and we never get it. It's all trans talk. Right. We sit. It's kind of an interesting thing. I would sit everybody who is in a modern city and a modern society but especially let's say Los Angeles. You basically sit in traffic every single day of your life in this city and then you turn on the TV and every politician is arguing about something trans and no traffic talk. No. No transportation talk. This trans talk and meanwhile I don't know any trans people. I am aware of Bruce Jenner who is now Caitlin Jenner and that's about it. That's about and you know, oddball politicians here and there but what I'm saying is in terms of impactfulness, traffic every single day, trans people neither here nor there do whatever the fuck you want. Let your freak fly fly fly. That's what we talk about. Well, I had to look up a word here, purient. I know what that word means. It means having an or encouraging and excessive interest in sexual matters and he says we know that purient interest could be for many the very existence of transgender kids. So what that person is saying is that they that all transgender people have an excessive interest in sexual matters and by the way, this representative's last name is Fink. Remember we're talking to Chef Grool about the irony of last names and professions. A Fink is an unpleasant or contemptible person. And you know what the word forms on people. Rat Fink. Yeah. That used to be a snitch. A snitch. All right. Important getting the words in the job done for the kids who are insane. Yeah. Let's stay in Minnesota for a minute. The Somali community in Minnesota is demanding reparations. Well, they built reparations. They built the community. They built the community. No, not the community. They built Minnesota whole state. They built everything. That's what I've learned. The demand. The slaves and some allies have built everything. By the way, if these folks who come from these lands are excellent builders, how come nothing ever gets built in their land? It's a whole land of them. You know what I mean? Like what here's what I'm saying. You're going to look it up, Andrew, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say, Duzenberg, German. Duzenberg come to the United States and Duzenberg starts building themselves some good cars. Right. Because that's what they do. Right. Because they come from a land of porches and a land of Audi and Auto Union and VW. They come from a land of high quality automobiles and thus they come to Indiana and they start building cars. And so how is it that slaves descend from Africa and some allies from Africa? They're amazing. They built everything here according to the left. Should they be building their ass off back where they're from? Right. If they're builders, I don't seem to be doing that much building. Where are the Duzenbergs from? Sorry, go ahead. That sounds like a German thing. That sounds pretty German. Yeah. See. They're from Duzeldorf. Let's listen to the Somali communities. Demands over reparations over ice trauma. Lead program. Fiction to our criteria. Of small business owners. Not those who make 200,000 and above. We don't make that much amount. We have been suffering since the crisis of ice. We also demand immediate help to efficient. So families are not bush to homelessness during the crisis. Our community deserves accountability. Our community deserves safety. We need also justice for those who lost their lives defending the community. Okay. Again, what they want is free cash grants to immigrant businesses that make under 200,000 dollars. Stop all evictions and give them free rent. They want the government to apologize and they want ice banned from their neighborhoods and justice for quote martyrs. Duzenberg, creator from Germany. There you go. They had the heritage of the fine automobile coursing through their blood. Yeah. And they came here and they started building. Duzenberg's. And thus it's a doozy. As the phrase came from. Now, the thing that's interesting is Duzenberg was building those cars before Volkswagen, before Porsche and before Audi, which used to be auto union, not before Mercedes. Huh. Be interesting. It's from the lip A or leap A or whatever Germany came came here in 85, grew up in Iowa. But Duzenberg's are from like the teens in the 20s. And that would predate VW, Porsche, Audi. I think, well, not Mercedes-Benz. But anyway, Duzenberg in a weird way is kind of an early German car, even though it was built in, I think it was built in Indiana, but I can't be sure. Built first cars in Iowa. Huh. Built first cars in Iowa and then went to Indiana or am I making that up? Yes. And then, and what year was like the first Duzenberg, you know, more for Andrew? Let's see. Trying to see. Well, I think I had a post-World War I. That sound right. Yeah, right in there though, like late teens early 20s, 1921. All right. Sorry, go ahead. Mayor, New York mayor, Zoran Mamdani, although he opposes requiring IDs to vote. Yes. He mandates, he's asking people to come and be a citizen snow shoveler during the storms. But in order to get paid, you have to show five forms of identification to shovel snow. Right. You can see on the screen here, two small photos, like a passport photo or driver's license, two original forms of ID plus copies and a social security card. Now here's the big question, boss. What about those women who really want a shovel snow who got married? Yeah. Mm-hmm. And they're not going to be able to prove what about black people? They love shoveling snow. Yeah. Like, like poor Mississippi and black blue singers love shoveling snow. How do they get, how they're going to get, they're not going to be able to do it. They're going to be, and by the way, what if there's some ice guys walking around while they're shoveling snow? No, they're not going to be able to feel intimidated. And they won't be able to shovel snow. Yeah. So first it was black guys who couldn't shovel snow. And now they got off of the black guys, even though they still call it Jim Snow 2.0 or whatever. That was Jimmy Fale. That's a great word. Jim Snow 2.0. But now they got onto women who got married. They didn't change their names and enough time to make a shovel snow. Yeah, yeah. It's the point. It pays pretty good too. My first 40 hours pays $19.14 per hour. After you work 40 hours in one week, it jumps up to 2871. Heal January went fast, didn't it? Flu by. It's already been a month.

You know, I got to tell you, man, as I've lamented many times, when I got out of high school, I was like so good to go on any job. I was, you know, it's a high school football player. I was super strong and I had like low self-esteem. I just, whatever. If you said, hey, there's a bunch of rats shit under the house. And clean up the rat shit. I would've went, okay, and then I would've went, oh, I didn't bring my rat shit cleaning gloves and you put a w... So watch, too with your hand. And I would just crawl down your house and done it. Right. I was like mowing lawns and shit when I was 18. Where were all these fucking jobs? I would've, I would've fucking shoveled snow for 60 hours a week and I literally would've went fucking fine. Absolutely. By the way, how much grift is gonna be with these guys putting their hours in with the show? This is gonna be snowgate. Yeah. Because there is no fucking way. These guys are gonna be staring at their phone. They're gonna do two shovelfuls. They're gonna go back to looking at their phone again. Who's gonna be in charge of all these people logging all the fucking hours? And then they're gonna say that the people who are actually making them work, they're racist. Right. Because they're making them work. Let's hear what, let's hear mom Donnie. We're utilizing 33 DSNY vans and two DSNY buses to transport shovelers where they're needed faster. And for those who want to do more to help your neighbors and earn some extra cash, you too can become an emergency snow shoveler. Just show up at your local sanitation garage between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. tomorrow with your paperwork, which is accessible online at nyc.gov slash snow. And you can get started right away. To paperwork, bring your papers. That's so racist. It's like Nazi Germany. I know. Man, out of your paper, jack booted thugs. Oh man, I know. It's so funny. The anti ID people get burned with the ID every corner. Like to vote on the bill they have to use their ID to vote. It's all great. The one thing about really retarded ideas is be prepared for those ideas to slap you in the face constantly. I mean, like if you have a retarded idea, so if you're Billy Eilish and you want to get up there and blow V8 about no one's illegal on stolen land, be prepared for somebody to send a couple of tweets out about you and your $8 million house. Right. It's going to happen immediately. Right. I cannot, I can't call myself a personal trainer while I'm smoking a cigarette through a donut. Sure. Someone's going to go, hey, you're telling me to get in shape. Look at fucking you with your donut. You're saying, I think it's going to happen almost immediately. And so if you're AOC and Bernie Sanders and you're out on your stop the oligarchy tour, but you're racking up half a million dollars in private air, air travel, be prepared, everybody. Your net worth is growing exponentially. Right. You haven't done any work. You never stop talking about the unhoused community, but you have three homes. Oh, here's another. Be prepared. Or by the way, John Edwards, if you're going to travel the Davos privately to talk about the climate and CO2 in my area, John Terry, sorry, be prepared for somebody to say something. Right. We're seeing, we're about to see this probably with newsroom and a pretty good saying that because the tariffs, the tariffs were struck down by the Supreme Court that Donald Trump owes everybody a refund. Now he's already been floating around giving money to everybody from these tariffs. Right. And now they're saying, give us a refund. I see him saying, I see Trump just saying, okay, well, let's send out these checks right before the midterms. It's going to blow up in newsroom faith. And also the second thing everyone says is, you gave $24 billion out of taxpayer money to NGOs for homeless. Nobody cares about that. No accountability. So I'd like as a high earning Californian who pays a lot, state taxes, I could also use a rebate for squandered money. How about that? 10 billions on homeless in California. And all we got was three times the homeless people. Right. So I'd like a rebate. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Right. As long as we're getting newsroom, as long as you're bringing up the subject of rebates, let's stay on it. That's what I'm saying. All right. Insanity. A man in his early 20s was shot and killed by US Secret Service. Mm-hmm. After breaching the secure perimeter at President Trump's Mar-a-Lago property early Sunday morning. I heard that. Yeah. Secret Service says the incident unfolded around 1.30 a.m. at the Northgate of the Palm Beach Estate. Let's hear the press conference. At 1.30 this morning, the security detail detected that a individual had made his way into the inner perimeter of Mar-a-Lago. A deputy and two Secret Service agents on the detail went to that area to investigate. They confronted a white male that was carried a gas can and a shotgun. He was ordered to drop those two pieces of equipment that he had with him. At which time he put down the gas can, raised the shotgun to a shooting position. At that point in time, the deputy and the two Secret Service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat. He is deceased at the scene. I'll give you a picture of the shotgun and the gas can to have with you. So that's what we know now. Investigation continues. The FBI is the lead investigation agency on this case and we will be assisting them and whatever they want. By the way, positive person. This is why I could never give a press conference. Because if you roll, just go back, go back like 10 seconds if you can and turn it up, sir. So that's what we know now. Investigation continues. The FBI is the lead investigation agency. Where's that shotgun? Where's that shotgun? Do we still have the shotgun? Because that fucking bird is driving me nuts. I can't go through this fucking press. I got that fucking bird squawk and get Tim. That's a very convincing one. It's in the evidence locker. Go fucking get it. Go get it. I'll put some gloves on. I'm not going to do this press with that fucking duck back there going nuts. And by the way, it's loaded. It's good. It's not the shotguns fault. It's the owner's fault. So let's just turn it on. Let's just turn that shotgun on that fucking bird. Go back 10 seconds if it's the one that bird squawk and the whole fucking town. Oh God. You are a picture of the shotgun and the gas can to have with you. So that's what we know now. Investigation continues. The FBI is the lead investigation agency on this case. And we will be assisting them and whatever. Take it. Get the shotgun. Hold on. Just everyone hold on. I was supposed to kill that fucking bird. And by the way, good eating. You know, you guys like duck. I think it's a crow. It's what is well, it's by the water. Maybe it's a it's crow's and it's got it's not crow. It's it's got some crow to it. But it's by the water and it's got it's one of those weird Florida could be some kind of gold. Florida weird birds. I just got done playing shows in Florida. There's a fucking weird bird every 10 feet over there. They got water where you get water. You get weird birds. You get weird birds a little bit by the ocean. But if you get by fresh water, you get a bunch of weird ass birds. But anyway, that's that's ocean water in the back. All right. So yeah, so look, you want to keep going with the Hitler and all this kind of shit. Then you're going to get what's got. That's what's got many people showing up with shotguns. Why the gas can? Was it a two stroke shotgun? I don't know. I guess he had maybe probably possibly had the intention of setting something on fire. Yeah, I mean, people, well, first off, we spend a lot of time doing a kind of, we do, we spent a lot of time trying to figure out crazy people, I've realized. And then as the, as I said, as the great howie, man, Dell said, I think you were there back at the club. We're playing after he came upstairs from eating at the barbecue joint across the street. Share popcorn with all of us. I mean, you have to picture this. I was thinking about this as I was sharing popcorn with Mike August on the airplane. It's a long story. But popcorn in a world like we're we're we're we're we're we're we're we're we're group. And that people open the bathroom door with their foot, you know what I mean? They'll use their sleeve to pull the thing to open a door outside or whatever. But when you when you ride on the shuttle on the train over in the airport or everyone just grabs those hand grabs and no one ever wipes them down or washes your hand or they just grab were millions of people grab. All day every day and you just happily grab onto that. You know, no one sanitizes and no one I watch people on the train at the Denver. They're all just hanging on and they'll just grab their luggage and leave. You got your fucking neck pillow. That neck pillow is going through the security thing. It's on the floor all the time when you're fucking back back. Set me drop it down with its hat. You know, that fucking neck pillow is disgusting. And you just pop that thing on. Put around your neck. You don't wash it. You don't you don't anything it right? And when it comes to the door knobs in the bathroom, most people wash their hands before they leave the public bathroom. So they are touching it. The cleanest of all the hands. You'll never have cleaner hands. Right. And then but they comes to the popcorn. The popcorn you reach into the popcorn thing and you shove them into your fingers. This was like kettle corny stuff. It's you put your whole hand in your fucking mouth and then you go right back in. And the person next to you goes right back in. But that same person, if you used, if that person was like a chick and you just rinsed your coffee mug and used it, she'd be like, that's so gross. It's disgusting. It's covered with, it's like, all right. So it's grosser than you licking all your fingers and putting them back into this. And by the way, when you're feeling around, it's a random grab. You get some pop out, some are in your hand fall, fall out. And we're just going to lick our fingers and go right back into this pocket. If there was something, if there was a contaminant on your hand, yes, it would spread throughout the entire pop. There is nobody who has a problem with popcorn. Every woman I've ever known will sit in a movie theater and happily put a big tub of popcorn in between the two of us later on, if I used a fork to eat dinner and then just like rinsed it off and set it aside for a moment, they'd be like, that's disgusting. Right. By the way, that's just me using it. It's not even her using it. It's me. It's disgusting because I used it. I'm going to use it again and have to go in the dishwasher. So we got weird rules is what I'm saying. And how a man, Dell comes walking in with a box of popcorn, a lid, like a shirt box lid a popcorn that he got from the barbecue joint and he's handing it around. And everyone's out reaching out, licking their fingers right back. That's how we man Dell and how he's eating it. And I'm just looking at how this guy won't shake hands. And everyone's licking their fingers and going into his popcorn. And he's going for it too. And back to the answer. When I said to him, how I don't get this, I'm licking my fingers. He's looking at his fingers or all the eating your popcorn, you're eating your popcorn. And I thought you were germafo. It doesn't make any sense. And he goes, you don't get it. I'm nuts. Yeah. And I go, oh, you're nuts. Oh, okay. Makes perfect sense. Now makes sense, right? Right. What's he doing with a gas can? Well, he's nuts. He's nuts. That's that's what it's now. He's nuts. And you assholes call Trump Hitler. And that's a, that's a, a call to action for many nutty people with shotguns and gas cans. And you won't stop. But by the way, I don't think for a second, I would assume that most of these people, and I think it's more of a feminine quality. If you gave, if you gave any of the squad, the Rashida to Leibs or the Omar's or Elano or Mars or AOC's or anything, if you go, if you said to him, listen, I got a little magic wand. You wave at Trump's dead. He just dies in a sleep. And they'd go, would it come back to me? No, no, it wouldn't come back to you anymore than anyone dies. You know, somebody dies in their sleep. Right. They're going to come back to you. They'd go, where's the wand? Right. And if you said, do the same, do the same thing for Elon Musk. I'll give you a little wand. He can just be dead. Would it come back to me? No, just wake up just middle of the night. dies. Oh, give me the wand. I 100% believe they would do that. I believe that too. One fucking hundred percent. I don't think, I don't think religious people, and you know, I don't think dead crews would do that to Karen Bass. I don't think so. But I think for sure that they'd be happy if Trump was assassinated. 100% because so they don't the answer is whatever they're, you know, turn down the heat and turn down the rhetoric. I don't think they care at all. They'd love it. Even Adam Schiff would do that. I don't think it's it's just the well, listen, if you let's let's do it this way, Dawson. And do you have another story by the way? I do not. Okay, let's put it to you this way. If you believed, if they believed, if they believed 10% of what they say about Trump, right, not 80%, not 110, if they believed 10% of what they say about Trump, yes, they should want him assassinated. Right. It's like saying, well, I didn't believe everything. You know, well, what if you, you know, Hitler killed six million Jews? Well, what if he only was going to kill 500,000 Jews? That's still one of dead, you know, even though I'm saying six million, but 500's enough. And that's one 12th of what I was saying, but it's still enough for me to want him dead. All you know, all you'd have to do is believe a little bit of what you're saying about Trump, about how dangerous he was and we were going to have elections. We lost our democracy. You believe 10% of what you said you'd want him dead? Well, Trump is going to be delivering the state of the Union address tonight. And remember the last state of the Union, the Democrats were holding signs and dressing a certain way and acting very childish for protest this time. I don't think there's going to be much protest inside because most of the Democrats just won't show up. Yeah. Adam Schiff won't be there. Oh, man. Good to do. Because he's a hero. That's not true. It's got those four years of Russia gate and then nothing comes out of it. But by the way, I'll tell you one thing about those guys, Gavin Newsom's this way, Adam Schiff's this way, all those assholes on the left are this way. They cannot be shamed. You can never shame them. You can go, you were fucking wrong about everything COVID. And they're going, that's funny. You did four years of Russia gate, four years and we're proven lying. We're lying and here's nothing. And they go, fine, who cares? Moving on. Like they literally have no gear. Where they self-reflect. Part of that is they really do some, they have to somehow really believe that all the things that they say about Trump are absolutely true, thus justifying the lies. I, here's what I think. Like they're on some, oh, yeah, oh, no. Yeah, sure, yeah, right. Look, everybody who is in the French resistance had forged papers. Well, that's illegal. I know it is. You're not who you say, you're, no, I'm not. You're wearing a German soldier's uniform. That's against the Geneva Convention. Yeah, well, so what we're dealing with. Right. So fine. Yes, of course. There's nobody's. Yes. I think, I think they think he is such a threat to their ecosystem, such a threat to their business as usual. Oh, 100%. For such a threat to their freedom in many cases, because these people broke the law. Yeah, I mean, he is such a threat that would love it if he's gone, especially if your constituency with Somalis that were ripping off taxpayers. And you just want the whole thing. Treatmenters. Leave us alone. Right. Right. We want, when you are ripping people off, you need to be left alone. If you're a drug cartel, you're not asking the government to help sell drugs. You're telling the government, please look the other way so I can carry out my business. Right. You know what I mean? So if you are some homeless NGO in California that is getting millions and millions of dollars, all you need to do is get the money. You want is for to be left alone. You certainly don't want a new sheriff in town who's going to be asking questions and want to look at some numbers. Right. So when you're, you know, I built, I built my fair share of like bootleg shit, just remodel the kitchen without a permit or whatever. Sure. All you want to be is left alone. You don't want the government to help you build the kitchen. You just want them not to knock on your door. Right. And what you don't want to hear is there's a new guy from zoning and planning and plan check is really, he's really particular and he may be coming around like I think that's, you want to be left alone to waste the taxpayer money or to sell people drugs or to do your human trafficking or to do your street vending or whatever that, whatever shit you're up to, you want to be left alone to do it. And if you're a shit corrupt politician, you want to be left alone to do it. And he's not, he's not going to do that. Yeah. They got a, they're going to do a protest. Remember when Nancy Pelosi tore the speech up behind him? So dumb. That's also, also why? Why do these people become heroes? Oh, they got state of the swamp. We got Robert De Niro. How much credibility is Robert De Niro lost in the last decade? Oh, most of it. Yeah. Mayor Brandon Shanson. Swalwell is going to be there. Don Lemon. Oh, it's Don Lemon got fired because he's Stacy Abrams. Oh, she had my cast. Mark Ruffalo. Oh, Eric Schwalwell. Oh, oh, Mary Ann Williamson. Mary Ann Williamson came in here and I did interview with her like eight years ago. She's a fucking dope. Yes, she is. She's a dope. Yes. She is a dumb fucking person. She's a dumb animal. Tom Arnold is going to be there. He's severely brain damaged. I'm not going to be there. What? Stacy Abrams. What are the chances she'll recognize Tom Arnold? Oh, is she is is Mayor Brandon Shanson of Chicago going to know who Paul who Tom Arnold is? Probably not. I don't think so. Seth Moulton, representative Dan Goldman, all the fucking losers from both sides. I'm sorry from the left side of the aisle are going to be there all the fun. And by the way, Brandon Shanson, fucking run your city. Would you, bro? Yeah. Jesus Christ. And many more guests. So they're going to do a big rally. Where's Bruce Springsteen? Who's playing the game? I'm going to start his tour. He's going to start his tour, but apparently tickets are like three thousand bucks. Oh, man. It's the boss. Yeah. Boss got to get paid. Boss has got to get paid. So this is going to be in DC, I guess, the protest event. You know what? This will move the needles. Like remember the million woman march? Yeah. Where they all knitted themselves? The pink hats. Yeah. And they just went up and down the boulevard. Right. Remember how that changed things with the ladies? Right. Remember there was a war on ladies before that? We had the war on them for a long time. Now they got a hat. And they're going up and down the street. And they got Madonna. She's pissed off. Thank God for her. Oh, there's going to be some righteous speeches. Oh, ruffalo. Oh, ruffalo and deniro. Because when you got acting chops and you're giving a speech, then you end up with, oh, let's see. Andrew. Oh, God. What is her name who was the actress, the greatest, the greatest was the Mac and tire? No, not even Mac and tire. Judd. Ashley Judd. Ashley Judd. Right. Ashley Judd, unhinged speech. If you, if you find that, yeah, you're going to, that is a little slice. That is a slice of heaven. Ashley Judd. I think that was people. Trump's first inauguration, right? All of these people, they don't, they don't have any new ideas. It's all they have is we hate Trump. And that works for a certain segment of the population. Well, they also are. But they're not changing any minds. They want everyone to have a seat at the table, Dawson. Oh, that's true. And nobody should go to bed hungry. No, nobody should have left behind. No one should have food insecurity. And everyone should get a house. There's a school to prison pipeline that needs to be blown up. I don't know what that is. Yeah, Ashley Judd, unhinged speech. I think that that's all Google needs, right? For 30 seconds or then. Here we go. There's going to be a lot of this. Powerful, powerful speech. I'm not as nasty as a man who looks like he bathes in Cheeto dust. A man whose words are a desks track to America. Electoral College sanctioned hate speech, contaminating this national anthem. I'm not as nasty as Confederate flags being tattooed across my city. Maybe the South actually is going to rise again, maybe for some. It never really fell. Blacks are still in shackles and graves. Just for being black, slavery has been reinterpreted as the prison system in front of people who see melanin as animal skin. I am not as nasty as a swastika painted on a pride flag. All right. We got it. Let's slam poetry. This is going to be awesome. Insanity. All right. We'll be watching. Here's the betting over under on Deniro F bombs. 13. 13 Deniro. Depends on how long they're going to speak. It will be every fourth word. All right. He's a dope. All right. That is it. Texas coming up Friday, Saturday, Hyena's comedy club. I want to thank Bruce Bruce for coming in and Dawson Dawson for doing the news. And until next time, Miss Adam Carlisle for Bruce Bruce and Dawson Sam. Mahala.
