They just got them. They just got him off the couch and The first person that hit him he was like, I'm gonna put two in your head Yeah, honky he's pulled him off the card though if you pull a kid off the car It's gonna last yeah, that's literally exactly what they said there like dude. This isn't called dude. Oh I'm gonna fucking shoot you in the head So I got that going on It's a lot. Yeah, it's a lot stressful was a flat you get a flag personal foul for death threats. No, it was a practice That was a good teammate. Yeah, one of his coaches told me he's gonna channel that to the other teams It's not for him to start away. I don't mind having a little Jalen Carter on your squad I saw it first was there a reason for that. Yeah, that did spit at him first. Yeah, we didn't know Yeah, that's the craziest thing I've ever seen. Yeah, he got kicked out of the he got kicked out of the game right before the first Snap. Yeah, well the first play walked into the Cowboys huddle and spit on the quarterback. Yeah, but I Hear out But Dax bit towards them Dax bit from a distance towards them Cowboys, which is a good move if you're gonna fire someone up. Yeah, I think it's easy to get nicks on the side I'm okay. I like it. I Think you get the Jalen though. That's a guy you got a target. Yeah, if you're in a posing quarterback You can get him kicked out of the game. You can get a lot of these stages in the game here in trouble Yeah, that's why you felt that's why I'm so far in the draft you guys always fucking Everybody falls right in your fucking lap. It's unbelievable. You guys had a good draft. Yeah, but the G men. Yeah Yeah, yeah, we always seem to have a good draft. It just doesn't pay out. You guys lost again this weekend, right?

I tried to go to bed, that was my problem. I tried to go to bed and it was just like, the feeling in my chest was just horrific, just like super tense. And then there was like, I was listening to YouTube to calm myself down. So it was like meditation, YouTube, all the stuff, relaxation, I'm playing, I'm just laying there, nothing's working. And eventually they're like, whatever feeling you have, give it a shape. And I was like, give it a color. And I'm like, red. And it's like, give it a shape. And I'm like, I closed my eyes and it's just like, this amorphous, shiny blob going in the exit. But yeah. There's a Twix box. The shape probably turned on me. It was just like, I was like, fuck, this isn't working. Oh my god, we left so fucking hard in that hotel. You need to tell the drives to. The bags, so fucking hard. You need to tell the drives to. I don't care how long it takes to set up. I love this story. You're a true police from the very beginning. I fells, get off your phones and pay attention. I can't recall. Somebody needs to hear this for the first time. I can't recall. I feel like Norm told it somewhere, but we went to go see back in like 2007, maybe. We went and saw legendary baseball player, commentator, and actor, Yooker, Bob Yooker. And by the way, he's in the Miller Lite commercial. He's in the Miller Lite commercial. What, Norm? That's where they met. No, I mean, there's a new one. Oh, yeah, he was doing it for years. So the next day we're talking about fucking the bags on you. Yeah. And I'm in a sports bar and Yooker comes on TV, I'm like, that's the fucking guy. Yeah, that's the one. What are the odds? Yeah, Yooker, he was on a famous sitcom in the 80s, Mr. Belvedere, and he was in Major League. And so that's Bob Yooker. And he's a fucking, he's literally the funniest man I've ever met in my life. So Norm and I went to go visit him when I was living in Arizona, and he was doing the improv. And we went down to see a spring training game. And Yooker for many years has been calling the Brewers games. He's from Milwaukee. And he told us the funniest story I've ever heard in my fucking life. And he was saying that back in, I think it was. Wait, tell me the Carson story too. Oh, the Carson story. So there was a brief time where Yooker did stand up. And he did the Johnny Carson show back in the 70s. And Yooker, he had like his five minute set. He kept running it. And then he went to go do it on Carson. And he was walking backstage before he was supposed to go up. And he's like, yeah, man, I'm fucking. And he cursed like a sailor. And he has a thick ax. And he's like, yeah, man, I fucking went to go do Carson back in, whatever year, was it, 76 or something. And the band leader for Carson back in the day was Doc Severinson. And he's like, I walk by and fucking Doc Severinson's, his dressing room doors open. And he's sitting in there with this fucking mountain white shit on the table. And he's like, hey, Yooker, come in here and fucking do some of this shit. I didn't even know what the fuck it was. I said, I don't give a fuck. I'll do it. So I go in there. And it turns out it was obviously cocaine. I didn't fucking know. And then so I'm in. I'm doing my fucking seventh line, I think, at this point. And the fucking showrunner for Carson, he says, hey, Yooker, you're on. So I fucking go out there and I do five minutes of material in about 30 seconds. And they give me the sign to fucking stretch. I didn't know what the fuck I was doing. Just seeing a pile of cocaine go, fucking, I'll do it. I don't know what the fuck it is. I got a shoe on. It's your national television. So fucking, I'll do it. So the best story he told us and I've ever heard was he's like, yeah, man, I used to play for the fucking Brewers. And we used to pull bags on each other all the time back in the day on other guys from other ball clubs. And by the way, a bag is a prank. And he called them bags. Bag, it's the funniest thing. It's a bag so funny. It's gonna be, yeah, that'll be in the language now. It's just gonna be in the vernacular forever. Absolutely. So he's like, so one day we decide, oh, this weekend, we got the fucking Dodgers coming to Milwaukee. And we said, oh, this is a perfect opportunity to pull a fucking bag on old Don Drysdale. So fucking Don Drysdale had a fucking whore in every city. But his fucking primo whore was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. So we decide, oh, perfect opportunity for a fucking bag on Drysdale. So we decide he didn't know little Don Drysdale, no, I'm friends with the fucking chief of police in Milwaukee. So he's in this fucking hotel room with his primo whore. We paid that fucking bitch off and pretend like she died and had the fucking chief of police and some of the cops come bang down his fucking hotel room in the fucking middle of the night. And he thinks he killed this fucking bitch. And so they cuff him naked as the fucking day he was born. He's crying in the fucking hallway, thinks his life's over. And I walk by, I say, hey, Drysdale, the bag's on you. Any minute. Anyway, so 20 minutes later, I'm down in the fucking lobby having a drink and Drysdale comes down. The fuck are still mad. I said, relax, it's a fucking bag. It's a fucking bag. Drysdale, the bag's on you. Relax, it's a bag. The fuck are still pissed. So Norm and I used to always do this bit where we would talk about like how would be great to do a sitcom like Candid Camera called the bags on you with Bob Euker. Where he just pulls these terrible awful fucking friends. Your wife and kids are dead. The bags on you. But it's all because he was on Mr. Belvedere on you. Oh, my God. He was on Mr. Belvedere for some reason. We just kept using these old obscure actors from sitcoms in the 80s. So like, hey, this week on the bags on you, we pull a fucking bag on a principal building. Like he told me we got evidence that you raped a fucking 14 year old. But the bag's on you. The bags on you. Now, that's all allegedly we don't know if Drysdale had a whore in every city. That's all it's all funny. It's a bag. It's just a bag. It's just a bag. And then Drysdale pulled the bag. He thought it was the. Well, I don't know. Yeah, this is the most intense bags I've ever heard. He keeps going. Allegedly, the Drysdale thought that he's like fucking Drysdale. Didn't realize I was the one that fucking pulled the bag. It was my idea, but he thought it was the third baseman. And so we didn't know that Drysdale's buddies with these fucking Goombas, these fucking Italian Goombas. Yeah, a couple of these fuckers. And and we're going down there. And we're going to go play in Los Angeles. And he gets a couple of these fuckers to go take the third baseman out in a fucking limousine by gunpoint. They drive him out into the fucking middle of the desert and they hand him a shovel and they say, hey, start digging. And this guy's fucking crying, digging what he thinks is going to be his own grave. And we go, hey, now the bag's on you. This is just just for just the most evil pranks. Those are serious bags. Just some baseball players. So fucking funny. 70s baseball bags. Probably 60s. Yeah, probably. Maybe even. Yeah, it's probably 60s. Jesus Christ. 60s. Relax. So I looked up Drysdale after that. Oh, yes. It's very funny to see. Oh, yeah, it looks like a Don Drysdale. I didn't realize Don Drysdale was like a man. Yeah, he was nasty. He's an old American. He drives the bag. Oh, no. The bag pulled on old Drysdale. He was probably was. Usually, he wasn't thrilled. That hooker. Yeah, he's a motherfucker. Yeah, dude, that hooker was passed out. He's probably like, oh, rats. The broad is dead. Oh, I killed the goddamn broad. Oh, just what I need. This broad was sick. His broad came down with the heebie-jeebies. The jig is up. Just look, Drysdale. I'm going to the big house for sure. Oh, Drysdale, you're in a pickle this time. A real pickle now. Now, get out of it. Oh, shit. I'm gonna watch the police, asshole. Oh, shit. I'm gonna have to shoot my way out. Just my luck, my Primo-Hor cramps out on me. Honestly, these bags could go really, really bad. You could jump out of the hotel. Easily. Primo-Hor is such a funny bag. Primo-Hor croaking on you in Milwaukee. Primo-Hor bag. That's Milwaukee's gone wild, dude. That was honestly probably in the best Western in Milwaukee. The bag got pulled on old LaMaire. Oh, is that right? You had a bag? Yeah, a couple of fellas in Reddit pulled the old bag on LaMaire Lee. Oh, what happened? Grab the Maltesers, because that's the ping-pong-pong of Priya being added to yet another group chat. This time, it's Bristol High Reunion Hall. Wine emoji, dance emoji, poke-tongue emoji. Apparently, to arrange a holiday with 15 women who haven't hung out since jeggings. Shove some more Maltesers in because we're still debating the chat name. And frankly, have more chance of shaving a unicorn in a phone booth than the plans making it out of this group chat. Maltesers, look on the light side. The unicorn, June, 2029. You gotta tell it like you can. Are you with your primo? Tell it like you can. So I'm in Milwaukee. I just get off stage. I get on Reddit and I find Milwaukee's gone wild. Now, it's a little subreddit where they're selling orgies in Milwaukee. I say 75 bucks for an orgy. Yeah, I'll fucking take a razor scooter over the best Western. I get in there, they say, we're not in here. Thanks for the 75 bucks. The bag's on you. I'm back in New York. We're back in New York. We're back in New York. Who's there just taking off for the fucking Rockwark on $75 slider? Oh, jeez. Well, you waited. You waited for how long did you wait? You waited for the lobby. I waited like 30, 40 minutes. Something's the time. The lobby is sitting. And they were like, we can't come down now. We're too busy fucking. So you get back to New York and he tries to confront Milwaukee. He's gone wild. And they're like, actually, it's funny you ask. We have an orgy in New York tonight. 75 bucks. They're trying to pull back him again. Wow, good for you. They're pulling me once. The bag's been pulled on him a couple of times on the internet. The bag's been fucking dicked because the bag me once. Shame on you. Bag me twice. True. This time the bag's on me. The other bag, well, the mayor's been hit with the internet bag. They'll get you. Jacking off bag. Send it to your friend's bag. Where's the jacking off bag? You better be careful. You're going to want to hear this. Which one? I sent my dick to a dude on Snapchat. I thought it was a lady. Oh, yeah. Man, that happens to the best of us. Yeah. But I admire the fact you were like, go ahead and release it to all my friends. They're cool. There's nothing. You literally, so they get your Instagram so they see who your friends are. And then they go, this is who I'm about to send it to if you don't give me $2,000. Oh my god. And you go, send it while you got to send it because you can't negotiate. They're going to go, all right, here's another list. 2,000 more. I'm sorry to them. Yeah. Yeah. You can't negotiate with terrorists. You can't negotiate with these dick terrorists. He didn't even send it, did he? Oh, he sent it. What? He sent it out? He did send it out? Yeah, but nobody answered it. Like everybody was like, this guy sent me a message about you. I was like, dope. Oh, wow. Everyone opened it. Just so you know. Every single, I was fucking open. Everyone's open in that. Yeah, true. We were talking about this recently. A girl told me, because we were sharing stories about this, how it happens to people. And a girl was like, happened to my brother. And it got sent to every single member of my family. Oh my god. He was like 18 when he did it. He got sent to his sister. And it was a video of him jacking off his face in it. Oh. But he survived. People are evil. People are evil. Yeah, that's like that Black Mirror episode. And they made him do all that crazy shit. Let me fuck a pig. No, that was a different episode. And there are bags on me. The bags on my dick before it goes into the Black Mirror episode. I was just like, fuck the pig. I would almost rather have like a, if it could be like a side profile fucking the pig, then like an eye contact POV of me jerking off on the screen. I disagree. Side profile fucking pigs. That's pretty wild. Vicious. That is wild. Well, you can at least deny some culpability. But if you're eye contacting the camera like, fuck, I'm gonna fucking kill them. They're both awful options. But I still go. Checking off. Yeah, checking off everybody does. Fucking a pig is nuts. Yeah, that's all. That's an odd choice. A real pig. Yeah, a real pig. No, an actual pig. Not a lady. A pig's dead. Oh, that's different. Oh, well, yeah. Pig of no brain. Obviously, the dead pig. It's dead pig. Dead pig. They're about to, you can say you sell it later. They're gonna kill it anyway. Yeah, a bunch of Italians are gonna take it up to you. Turns out we just fucking paid that pig off to pretend it was dead. The bag's on you. He's upstairs with his fucking primo pig. I didn't even have to send the video to my family. I don't even know why I did that. I like that. Dude, show the fucking terrorists who's boss. True. I might start sending my family just non-stop. There you go. I got a trick. I gotta get ahead of this. Dude, they got me again. The fuckers got me. Keep sending videos of you jacking off to your dad. Dad, don't open it. Dude, I got Catfish Terribly once back in, yeah, I mean, 10 years ago. And my friend told me, I was like, I got a bad feeling about this. The girl invited me over. It's late at night on Tinder or something. And I was like, I got a weird feeling about this. And he's like, dude, he's like, yeah. And I'm like, I could get laid, but I might be murdered. Yeah. And my buddy's like, oh, you know what you can do is you can put the phone number into the Facebook search bar at the time and it'll show if there's a profile link to that account. I swear to God, I typed in the phone number and it's literally. It doesn't matter that they're black, but they happen to be black and wearing a ski mask. Whoa. It was literally just three. Only a nice picture. And he definitely had a gun in another one of my. I'm glad I looked that up. That's really nice. I still want it. I still want it, you know. What? No, I didn't. When you get horny, it's like, yeah. But there's probably a mistake on the website. Well, yeah, I don't work out. Yeah, that's crazy. I've been murdered. Yeah, you got robbed for sure. Yeah. It's a good way to rob people. Yeah. Yeah. It's better than seduce. Fucking red at orgy. Seduce like a married guy. They're coming to your house that way. He can't tell on you. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Rob them. There you go. Take acid, rob people. It's a good podcast. Now the horny traps, the best. Yeah. You get someone in. Yeah. And you're just kind of, you can't be like, oh, I was the guy. Were you there? Be like, but you needed help moving something in the fridge. You're just afraid. But Bernie Fritz. Yeah, it was an easy one to come up with. Yeah. The governments do it. Yeah. Honeypot. Yeah, it was a classic. It was a little bit of a honeypot. Yeah. Damn, that would have sucked, though. Just to go to the apartment. Black Israel. Is he mad? Yeah. It's possible. I bet. I bet. Honey, too. I literally could get honeypotted. Yeah. I'm fucking waiting to. That's why they do it. Oh, bother. Oh, bother. Oh, bother. No, pussy. Just a fucking guy in a ski mask. I also feel like now, if they want to honeypot you, because they have your whole internet porn search history, they can like craft a scenario out of like a porn you watch. You go quickly through my stepmom's stuck in a dryer. You go. Seems fishy, but I got to take this chance. She got the facade written all over it. She says, the facade written all over it, but what if she is stuck? And she needs my help. Having a stuck honeypot would be so fucking funny. What is this? You don't know a party. Someone would be like, oh, that room? Oh, my fucking stepmom's stuck in a dryer. Don't worry about that mirror that looks like a camera could be behind it. Walk up the mirror. I know you guys are watching. I'm doing it. Yeah, my step sister's frozen in the kitchen. You can do whatever. It's just a crazy thing. It's called free use. She's just bent over the kitchen counter. Don't mind the Jewish cameras everywhere. You go home. You go home. Your dad's like, Shane, I got a divorce. This is your stepmom's. She's like a fucking 23-year-old Brazilian lady. You're like, this seems fishy. I've seen videos about this. Fucking facade. The facade keeps getting. She's so nice to me. Yeah, honeypot is the best. I mean, it is a good trap, I'll say. Yeah. It's class. You're going to get trapped. You might as well get fucking honeypot. Yeah, true. Legally. Yeah. That's all I know for sure. I'm not. Because then it's like, my thing is, if I got caught into the honeypot, I would start to be like, can we do another one? Can we do those? I don't know if you made my mind up yet. I'll never talk. These guys keep sending fucking chicks to suck my dick. The worst spies ever. I'm just lying. Just keep making shit up. Because if you get caught with one bad photo, that would be crazy to be indebted for years and years and years. It's got to be a real bad one. Yeah, you got it. It literally has to be. Yeah, it's almost like something like this is happening in the world right now. Yeah. Yeah, it definitely is. No, I'm talking about the Epstein list. Yeah. Dude, the letters. Also, now though, you can just claim Deepfake. I never thought of that. You never thought about that. You never thought of that? He said, the bag's on you, Stephen Hawking. Dude, Epstein was on the master bag down to the beach. He can't even walk. Put a couple of kids on him and take a picture. We go, hey, Stephen, the bag's on you. What do you mean the bag got me? Enough of your universe bullshit. You got to support Israel. They pulled a bag on him. Fucker, we decide to pull a bag on him. We're back at the fucking bar. Fucking three hours later, Hawking rolls in. He's still pissed. Hawking's still pissed. I'm in the fucking limbo line. I'm in the condo line with five 10-year-olds and fucking Hawking rolls in. The fucking still pissed. Is he dead? When'd he die? Two, three, two years ago? Wait, didn't Stephen Hawking just die? I think it was like three or four years ago. Really? That was kind of during all the Epstein stuff. That must have been nice to be an assassin and be like, who you got to kill today? Like Stephen Hawking, you're like, easy. Easy. God damn it. Cakewalk. Just turn him off. He just made. He just powered him down. He's saying some dangerous things. How do we stop him? I got it. I broke his charger last night. Snuck into his house. It's almost too easy. It's just crazy enough to work. Yeah, Hawking being on the Epstein, on the island. Yeah. Yeah, that's tough. He was probably old as fuck, too. I know. Oh, bother. True. They really fucked him on that. And why did only two people, it was him and a magician that got released. There's only two people there. Oh, David Copperfield? I think Copperfield. I think the mysterious Mr. Copperfield. I bet he wished he could make that list disappear. 2015 email from Epstein. The email mentioned allegation from Epstein accuser, Virginia Guffrey, concerning a supposed underage orgy involving Hawking in the Virgin Islands. Oh, I thought you were going to say the best western in Milwaukee. That's the one where the mayor got locked out of, thank God. Stephen Hawking. Stephen Hawking was really Hawking. Stephen Hawking rolled himself home $75 lighter and pissed off. You promised me them there. They had the whole thing set up on a 40 screen computer. They almost got you. Fuck you, bitches. I'm on my way to NASA. Oh, it's funny. There's actually going to be an orgy at NASA later this afternoon. $75. All right. That's a deal. Oh, man. Sick, girl. It wasn't the only two people. I feel like it was, I don't want to put smud on Copperfield, but I feel like his name came up. It was like a famous magician. Yeah, I remember hearing that. It was just those two. The names I heard. I could be wrong. I don't want to get sued by David Copperfield. Exactly. I don't want to go to the state. Maybe it was Houdini. Yeah, that's exactly it. Damn. It was Houdini. I can be wrong. I'm wrong. Hawking's having a blast. This is him on the island. There's a photo. Shit. There's a photo. They said he would have. They said Stephen Hawking's would like he would go into a room with like midgets and make them do math naked. I heard that. I don't know where else. I haven't seen any sources pick that up, but that was the rumor. Naked math for midgets? He would make little people do math. He had them in the math castle. Did you ever play that game? What do the lit things are too funny? Oh my god, that's so funny. There's some really, yeah, he's got some incriminating stuff. Why are there only pictures of him? Interesting. He was just probably stoked to be at the party. Yeah, he's just happy to be invited. He's just happy to get out of the house. Yeah, I don't think because I think a lot of the other people might have been big power players and Hawking was just probably like, you know, do you ever see like the coming of age like high school tales and the nerd gets invited to the pool? I can't believe I finally hear this. Did you guys know that the universe is fucking on there? Shut the fuck up, Hawking. Throw him in the pool. Toga. It was can't hardly wait for sure. God, that's crazy. Yeah, that's wild. It's also crazy to think about how that happens. Like if you become like a millionaire, multi-millionaire, you're like, you know, you're getting into like more and more kind of like rarefied circles. And all of a sudden he's like, dude, I have an island. We're going to have sex with children. You're like, what the fuck? There's no way they laid out. Actually, they probably did. That's another one, fool me twice. Yeah. Second you get on this second jet, you go, it better not be any kid to Jeff, you fucker. Last time, I didn't like that. During the Clinton era, that was like the 90s. Dude, jailbait was like, that was like a funny, popular thing. You're like, dude, she's jailbait. It was not like now it's like pedophile. That made it late. It was during Obama. That was like. Dude, I say it all the time. Jailbait was like. Watch the pilot of Californication. It starts with him having sex with a high school girl and being like, oh, shit, I'm such a crazy writer. And that's the pilot episode I think of this year. It happens in old school. Yeah. He fucks a high school chick. Pineapple Express is girlfriends in high school. Yeah. What was he like? How old was he? What the fuck? I wonder who wrote all those. Who's doing this to us? Why are they doing this to us? Do you think you have a wish? Remember when you saw the Twix canister? Twix was full star David. That was the funniest thing I ever. We were hitting the hotel candy. I was like, bro, I'm not joking. This Twix is the star of David. And it really did. It was like. It was like. And it really did. It was like just like. I saw into Kanye West's mind. Because then I remembered immediately Kanye has been ranting about Twix. And I was like, that's why, dude. The star of David. Twix? Twix? Twix? Is that making Twix bigger to make us fat? Twix? Shut up before you get exiled, bitch. That's still the best, Kanye. It's like, we're doing this alone. None of you are with me at all. And it's like, I'm with you guys. Shut up before you get exiled. He's in someone's house. I'm calling everybody into my hotel room to be like, I'm the only one doing it. I'm by myself. None of you are with me. Twix looks like the star of David. Are you really going to tell the story about the one that made me laugh harder than anything? Well, the other thing that made me laugh so hard was that fucking dumb Elton John meme. Elton John meme's been making me laugh. That is one of the best. What was it? Elderly couple attacked together. It was like a news headline. News headline. And it said, elderly couple attacked at Elton John concert. And then the comment above said, then stay out of the fucking pit, bitch. Yeah, that had us crying, laughing for 45 minutes. Yeah, that was very funny. Now, what was the story about the guys that you worked with? Just say it. We can edit it. Oh, we've already told about it. We told it. That was a classic tale. And the text. That was a classic tale. Concrete piss. The text, I need to get the text from the audience. You got to get ahold of the text and tell that it's a different episode. Billy can read it. Billy is like, come on. It's crazy. It's so good. He rattles it off like the Gettysburg address. He really did. It's crazy. Yeah, it was a great night. It's a classic text from just like a horrible employee, just obviously high and up at four or more. Just a nine. It's like a nine foot text. Yeah, it's a meth text. It reeks of meth. Yeah, meth text. It's like 30 paragraphs. I was just like, I would never lie to you, full real. I love this job so fucking much. Trust me, OK? I'm not a liar, OK? What I said was going on at that time, OK? Like, it's that for 10 minutes. I'm an idiot, OK? I'm an idiot, OK. We'll see. I will win. I always win. By the way, did you know that when you Google tips for coming down off of LSD, they give you the suicide helpline? Jesus. I swear to God. That's crazy. That would have harsed everything. Yeah, imagine. That's terrible. I wonder if there's any maybe tips and tricks, like a blanket or a warm shower. It was like, help is available. I was like, what the fuck? And we're back. And we're back. I'm reading a book right now called Drunks and Monks, which it's about a guy. It's a really good book. It's about a guy who's an entertainment lawyer in Southern California. And he was kind of killing it and his wife divorces him. And he spirals for like six years. He had never drank. He had an alcoholic mom. So he never drank a day. And his life at 34 just starts hitting the paint harder than anybody. Yeah, it's got to be so sick. It was a dude. It was. You remember how fun it was the first time he drank? Yeah, he sure did. It was awesome. Imagine being 34, I mean like, oh fuck. Yeah. I've been missing this my entire life. Holy shit. The problem was he was showing his ass. So he was going through divorce. He would like go to weddings. He was like making out and grinding on a lady at like 34. Falling down, throwing up. Literally. And his mom was like a recovery. His mom actually then like, his mom got diagnosed with cancer. Then she relapsed. You got to hit the fucking red nose. And got dementia. So he was like, his mom, they didn't realize the mom was already like kind of a drunk who like fall down. But the mom started shitting herself all the time. So at one point he gets like kicked out of his second wife's house and he's just with his like mom who's like, you know, is going to die pretty soon. But she actually rallied for like six years and the dad would just freak out. So he was like 34 in his childhood bedroom and he had a horrible childhood. But at 34 is in there with his dad being like, what the fuck's wrong with you? Shit in your fucking pants. Like screaming, breaking shit. Something happened. Does anything good happen? Yeah, I think he becomes a monk. I think he eventually leaves. Yeah. I think I haven't finished the book. No, he becomes like a devout. You haven't finished the book. So you're just guessing. I'm pretty sure it becomes devout Catholic monk because I watched some interviews after. Until I saw you read Vakowski. Not for a couple of years. You would really like Vakowski. I like I remember like you like this. I read his fear the one book. It was good. His whole yeah, like ham sandwiches or something. Ham or I. Ham or I. And post office women. This is nice because it's that. But then it has kind of like a theological undertext because he's constantly he like gets he just starts like singing in a choir and like a Latin mass. It's really funny. Just a drunk. It's really funny. It's really funny. I used to drink at Vakowski's bar a lot. The really they are the frolic room. That's nice. And this drinking, but not really. But yeah, I can see how you would not miss it. But there's days. There's good days and bad. Yeah. Yeah. I just read like the book of shorts. I read that one about that girl. He was fucking the like she was like a prostitute. But he like loved there. It was kind of it's kind of beautiful. It was like. There really is. Kowski fucking rules.
