I don't know. That's what you're supposed to do with those. I think it was toe hold them and they provide an energy, but I don't. If you eat that

0:06:00 Unknown Speaker #2

now, they have many different kinds of crystals. They have some that you're supposed to set up on your dresser. Which, of course, works you talking about Are you talking about? You put stones and crystals on your dresser and change the entire energy of your

0:06:15 Unknown Speaker #1

those those that makes sense, and it works. But you're eating.

0:06:19 Unknown Speaker #2

Yeah, also, you know what I'm noticing about

0:06:22 Unknown

these crystals? The least insane people I know have them. People who seemed the most normal are always talking

0:06:32 Unknown Speaker #2

about the people who are the most centered Are the people who are talking to you about it the most, Even when you didn't.

0:06:38 Unknown

0:06:43 Unknown Speaker #2

convincing yourself all of a lie. It's not about that. That's not what I'm doing. I'm not saying I'm very centered and happy when I'm clearly deteriorate. Leave outside. Then we

0:06:52 Unknown

I miss him at long. Thank you, students. Um, after school cues, I miss him on teacher work days when we used to go up on the roof and have a brew. I mean, way

0:07:53 Unknown Speaker #2

used to drink it. School together? Yeah.

0:07:55 Unknown Speaker #3

I mean, man, I don't

0:07:56 Unknown Speaker #1

sweat out there. That's like for this guy who's this close of a friend we've been listening to run season four. This is about 20 hours of the podcast. It hasn't come up.

0:08:05 Unknown Speaker #3

Get It wasn't about me.

0:08:06 Unknown Speaker #1

It wasn't about you know, you there was nothing to talk about with because everything was good.

0:08:10 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, and I also would like to think that, you know, how do you guys had 1/5 seat in the room at the time? I think you guys would have probably invited me in here

0:08:17 Unknown

way. No. Howard Rest and pasta. Howard. Um I mean, he's still, you know, he's still Data e.

0:08:25 Unknown Speaker #3

I love the guy just like everybody else did. But let's be honest, the school is going to be way more exciting and way more fun without.

0:08:32 Unknown

Well, yeah, We wanted to have you in on the first season when we started this. But Howard was the only one who had access

0:08:39 Unknown Speaker #3

Teoh man. And he built the room. You can't tell the guy. Hey, you built the room, but you can't sit in there.

0:08:44 Unknown

So I did the Levis name. But now that we've got up and running, here are all stars in our own right now.

0:08:50 Unknown Speaker #2

They were standing on the backs of that dead man's work

0:08:52 Unknown

way. Literally were at

0:08:56 Unknown Speaker #1

times. Yeah. I mean, Aziz people might now are ex co host Howard Levis had a heart attack as a virgin when he was about to have sex with a woman for the first time. Way turned his body into a barbecue, had a blast. We didn't eat all of it. We stood on his back, turned into kind of a skin board when skim boarding.

0:09:14 Unknown Speaker #3

I really appreciate the take out plate you guys brought me. By the way, of course, really, That was it. But one of the best cuts of Howard, We honestly, it was good and I was crying. I mean, it's, you know, a lot of people say it's crazy to say you enjoy eating human meat, but honestly, until you've tried it, it's not that a

0:09:31 Unknown

lot of people think like, Oh, I wonder if human meat tastes good. I'm wondering if it's like, very, very good, and I'll say right now it is not. It is bad. It tastes like flesh, not meet.

0:09:42 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, there's no much you're eating. Mostly skin feels like sloppy, poor crime

0:09:48 Unknown

now to the listeners. Okay, I'm sure a lot of people are very confused right now. It's like, How did you guys in the back of the school? I'll

0:09:59 Unknown Speaker #3

be honest. It is not in prison. When you guys showed up at the front door of the school and what I want

0:10:05 Unknown

to know what you heard from your side of the story. We obviously know our side. We escaped, um, from Swine High School when we were surrounded by the Mafia on one side and the Goths on one side.

0:10:19 Unknown Speaker #3

There's a lot. There was a lot of rumors going around, you know? And I think a lot of people I mean, of course, there were some people who said about the rumors. There is a lot of people who of course, sort of bought into the sort of bullshit of the world. You know, they said people were saying, Oh, those four guys don't have any idea how to run a school. They're dangerous, They're scary. They've probably caused irreparable damage to kids lives. And I said to those people, You know what? I'm gonna quote my best friend, Todd, Padre, and I'm gonna say fuck off. All right, I showed him that showed him the phrase a day calendar and I said, Fuck off. Those guys are, I would say, the four best men on the planet Earth. Alright, if anybody is capable of shaping the lives of Children in a positive way, it's those four guys because he had Maybe there are unorthodox, but then putting those kids through the ringer man.

0:11:12 Unknown Speaker #1

Oh, and by the way, I am orthodox, so you don't have to worry about that?

0:11:16 Unknown

Oh, yeah. I remember when you tried to be unorthodox and you ran away from your truth.

0:11:22 Unknown Speaker #1

Yes. Yeah, I tried to be unorthodox. That's correct. You cut

0:11:27 Unknown

off your, um, your hair.

0:11:29 Unknown Speaker #1

I cut off my I cut off my hair. I straightened it all first, and then I cut it off. You straighten the hair I wore all while your temple. I wore all white, tiny shorts, shorts in an inverted hat. And I was very polite to people on planes. Wow. And it didn't work for me. It didn't work for me. And I went back to

0:11:50 Unknown Speaker #2

what was the hardest part about being unorthodox? Uh, post to your orthodox.

0:11:55 Unknown Speaker #1

Good question. The hardest part about being unorthodox is probably on the wops too, right? Yeah. Yeah. Ah, lot of pork.

0:12:02 Unknown

Before we get too carried away on this opposite wordplay, we're doing What? Um what? But that's true. Obviously, Uh oh. I bred the listeners or like, a hat. Oh, I'll

0:12:16 Unknown Speaker #3

be honest.

0:12:16 Unknown

If they do all this damage and come back and get back two basics. Back to the basics. Pamela. Tonight high, back to base.

0:12:28 Unknown Speaker #2

It feels renewed in the air

0:12:29 Unknown Speaker #1

and we'll tell you exactly what happened. You might have read about it in the papers, but of course, the end of last season we ended up in a helicopter with Phil Donahue. Cities enjoy Buttafuoco. The Olsen twins on DWI were taken off along with a fellow nurse from Swine High who went by the name of day role. Um, Darryl Kirkman, Gerald Curtis. He was all over the news. Well, Darryl Kirkman ended up getting killed by us.

0:13:01 Unknown Speaker #3

Pushing the helicopter was shocking. Television landed right on Howard's great,

0:13:06 Unknown Speaker #2

but it's not like it was our fault. That's just what ended up happening

0:13:09 Unknown Speaker #1

well, but what happened? Waas when they searched Darrell Darrell's house afterwards went to notify his family. They found several several human bodies in his freezer. Turned out he was a massive serial killer.

0:13:23 Unknown Speaker #3

Yes, the hillside hump er it was hillside

0:13:27 Unknown Speaker #2

humping. Would go hump the grass on the hill and then kill a body at

0:13:32 Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah, when we had all been terrified of him. And his thing was, he was Ah, uh, he was killing. It was like the opposite of Dexter Dexter. Find good, bad people to kill this. It was going very good. Yeah.

0:13:44 Unknown

He would look for acts of kindness and seek out these people. But most importantly, he would hump the big stack. Didn't base it on like they didn't call him. Like the philanthropy murderer. It was the hillside. Humber was based

0:14:01 Unknown Speaker #3

on this thing. Full answer. A few murder

0:14:05 Unknown

get going. He's the delay of every murder.

0:14:08 Unknown Speaker #2

Put a positive light on the some. Get

0:14:10 Unknown Speaker #1

the oddest thing about it was she wouldn't hump to his own completion. He was doing it for the pleasure of the Hill s. So he went there for a while

0:14:19 Unknown

and he was He was cooking another hill. Is that correct?

0:14:23 Unknown Speaker #3

In his own mind, that was the narrative that was sort of passed around on social media recently and on in the news coverage. Honestly, the news coverage was shockingly different than the account that you guys that you guys are presenting the news coverage. Fake news is honestly presenting. Not probably not, is hopefully not fake friend faux news because they were painting you guys is heroes. And

0:14:47 Unknown Speaker #2

we were. And it's true news.

0:14:49 Unknown Speaker #1

It turned out that the cops that had surrounded us in the West season, we thought they were there for us. They were therefore the hillside hump

0:14:56 Unknown Speaker #3

er and they were saying that you guys were getting kidnapped by the hillside hum for you were getting forced onto a helicopter, part of some crazy plan to murder all all three of you and all of these 90 stars. They were really like, shaping this narrative in a different way.

0:15:13 Unknown

Have been getting so lucky every time we do The worst thing imaginable were with someone who's worse than us. So we're always fine. Literally a week later

0:15:26 Unknown Speaker #1

on, I will say, you know, accidental hero once Maybe not hero, Accidental hero to time

0:15:34 Unknown Speaker #3

Lightning doesn't strike twice. That's right. You guys put

0:15:36 Unknown Speaker #1

El Chapo in the can. We killed the hillside hump. Er I mean, either we're just associating with the worst people on Earth because no one else can stand us. And we keep stuff people that's not true or we're heroes.

0:15:50 Unknown

I think we're heroes. We were given a some metals. Give it. Some men

0:15:55 Unknown Speaker #1

were given some very precious metals. I

0:15:58 Unknown Speaker #3

heard you got £33 of silver, Todd.

0:16:00 Unknown Speaker #1

That's right. Um, I requested a smudge silver as they could get and so they melted down £33 worth for May. And you can come by and see that on my lawn right now.

0:16:10 Unknown Speaker #2

I got £200. A fool's gold would just like the real stuff. Honestly, it's really nothing exactly. But it's shiny er than the Rio stuff. Problem is, you don't want to have nice things because then people can come in and take him, and then you feel bad. You wanna have fake nice things.

0:16:29 Unknown Speaker #3

People steal something. They got something, but really they in God? Yes.

0:16:32 Unknown

I was awarded multiple cinderblocks covered in titanium, which I really, really like.

0:16:39 Unknown Speaker #2

You did. And what have you been using these for?

0:16:42 Unknown

Oh, uh, those holding down tarps. You I'm replanning some sod in my front yard and you put

0:16:49 Unknown Speaker #2

the tarp down on the masala,

0:16:51 Unknown

and then you want to kind of, like, baked Assad into the yard. But we're very excited to be better than Hamilton were welcome here.

0:16:58 Unknown Speaker #1

They welcomed us and they said, Here's what they said, Fine. We'll let you have the podcast. We'll let you teach here, let you work here. But for the love of God, keep it normal. Yeah, and we said, That's our new middleman, baby. We're not looking for trouble, and

0:17:13 Unknown Speaker #2

that's what this year's about. Its being as normal as possible

0:17:17 Unknown

done. It's like we went to rehab and we came back with sort of like a new lease on life. Except we exactly the same because we didn't go to rehab

0:17:27 Unknown Speaker #2

what we just promised. We're normal. We're like those people that went to rehab that didn't even need it. There wasn't even a problem there in the first place. Wear like exactly. It's just a relax ation, so you can get back to yourself. Consider

0:17:39 Unknown Speaker #1

this going from Season seven of Entourage to Season eight. Let's forget the cocaine that Vincent Chase was addicted to explain it away and move on to something more interesting. I

0:17:51 Unknown Speaker #3

will say this. I think you guys are painting yourselves as not having been normal before

0:17:57 Unknown

we keep painting ourselves were painted two zeros we painted. Ah, what So sorry. So I

0:18:02 Unknown Speaker #3

would just say I think I think you know, there's there's two sides to every story and the outside world looks at you guys and things. Most of those guys, we're kind of nuts. I look at you guys and I think you guys are are shining examples of like of what's positive in this world. People who pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Where is the

0:18:21 Unknown Speaker #1

only way I can wake up in the morning? You're very loosely sleeping boots. I got this old body. I've got no core strength. So I've got a lift myself up for my boots,

0:18:31 Unknown

right? That's pretty surprising. Your shoulders are very strong, your legs a very strong. But in the center, you almost look as if, like you've been in a course it for 10 years. And then you're just like they'd let it loose. And you're like, Oh,

0:18:44 Unknown Speaker #1

that's Ah, Well, that's exactly what happened is I went through a busty phase.

0:18:51 Unknown Speaker #2

You are a pinup girl in the fifties.

0:18:54 Unknown Speaker #1

That's right. Yes, a lot of people in the Korean War would pin me up. I did a lot of

0:19:02 Unknown Speaker #3

hype it up. Yeah, this isn't a sort of standard made up centerfold thought. This isn't like a standard center of centerfold situation where you would wear, like, just abuses.

0:19:13 Unknown Speaker #2

Derogatory old in the center. Yeah, over. That's

0:19:18 Unknown Speaker #1

what would they wouldn't be able to fit me into the centerfold of the magazine. I was too long, so I would fold myself in half. Uh, so there wasn't a lot to prove. My sexy nude body on one page folded. Right,

0:19:32 Unknown

say the dying magazine industry. I

0:19:37 Unknown Speaker #1

mean, TV was brand new moving pictures. Eso Nobody was reading magazines anymore. They were too bulky. And I said, Well, instead of printing 25 people on your pages print me on 50 pages, folded in different positions and it waas beautiful. It was charged for seven years. Richard Nixon used me as a trifle wallet.

0:20:01 Unknown Speaker #2

You you were

0:20:03 Unknown

holding tricky. Takes money and license. That's right. You said I'm not a crook or you just backpack it.

0:20:11 Unknown Speaker #2

Can you prove Is that true? Was

0:20:14 Unknown

he a creek?

0:20:15 Unknown Speaker #1

I'll say two things. The first thing is I was absolutely there. I was there with Dick said. I will not occur. I go back and look at that. Video is angled. If there's a man folded in three in the car,

0:20:31 Unknown Speaker #2

right hands look huge, right? We've all seen the videos.

0:20:36 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, he's wearing one of those chunky cut Levi's. I listened. I

0:20:42 Unknown

when I saw the video. I'm not a crook. I heard a rumor that there is a second wallet. Okay, now, this is the second pilot on the grassy knoll.

0:20:51 Unknown Speaker #1

This is a big rumor, and I'd like to dispel it right now. Okay, there is a second line. So I guess there's not just fell. There's a second wallet in the deposit in the depository.

0:21:05 Unknown

Do you mean suppository?

0:21:07 Unknown Speaker #1

That's right. What's the thing That you stick up your in a

0:21:10 Unknown Speaker #3

positive. So God, there's when we got sick at these go book

0:21:15 Unknown Speaker #1

suppository. So to be clear, I'm folded in three in Richard Nixon's back pocket. He's also got a school book in his a nus with another wallet in it. That's the second

0:21:27 Unknown Speaker #2

going by him doing. The sign is

0:21:31 Unknown Speaker #1

just him trying to straighten out a

0:21:32 Unknown Speaker #2

spine. You want away such a bad president? He's got a lot of other chicken

0:21:36 Unknown

lying to the American public. That's right. That's right. Keep tell

0:21:40 Unknown Speaker #3

one truth. If you tell one truth, you gotta tell him all It's like a floodgate.

0:21:43 Unknown Speaker #2

Todd, when is your What? Is your autobiography gonna come out? Because you have lived a life?

0:21:49 Unknown Speaker #1

Well, I'm in a little bit of a legal battle with Penguin Publishing, Right? Really? Three main issue is they will not allow me to write that about so they want to get me the Ghost Rider that did my buddy OJ's book, Let's do and if I did it Situation, um, where I describe all the terrible things I did.

0:22:10 Unknown

If I waas Richard Nixon, strike old wallet, this is how I would have been it.

0:22:15 Unknown Speaker #1

Yes, exactly. Exactly. Long title. Uh, it's a long title. Another thing that if you read the legal battle, there's a lot of complaints they have against me that I'm showing them for. One of them is the long title. The other is the cover of the book they're not too happy with.

0:22:29 Unknown Speaker #2

And you're also being sued by the Brown family for copying the book that they now

0:22:36 Unknown Speaker #1

use the rug, the brand. Pero Nicole Brown Simpson.

0:22:40 Unknown Speaker #2

They now owned that book,

0:22:41 Unknown Speaker #1

and Nicole Brown Simpson and Goldman zone that book, and they are also suing me for all I'm worth

0:22:47 Unknown Speaker #3

and help you get out of this. Well,

0:22:49 Unknown Speaker #1

yeah, he helped me set up a home in Florida so that it's a nice little tax shelter there. Here's the thing is You don't have to do shit. If you move to Florida, you can treat you can treat victims like crap in the

0:22:59 Unknown Speaker #2

government of Florida's pretty much international water

0:23:03 Unknown Speaker #1

situation down there. Yeah, what? But hopefully the autobiographies coming out soon I just got to figure out the difference between periods and semi Colon.

0:29:42 Unknown Speaker #2

0:29:43 Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah, a gang. A gang is just another word for family. That's true.

0:29:49 Unknown Speaker #2

What is a family unit, anyway?

0:29:51 Unknown Speaker #1

A bunch of a bunch of daddy and

0:29:53 Unknown Speaker #2

mommy and the kiddie. Not that

0:29:56 Unknown Speaker #1

bad experience with kitties. Specifically sons. I think this is a better way to find family. Is random strangers on?

0:30:03 Unknown Speaker #2

You know, that's what it is. It's not. It's not that I have cut everything out of my life. That scares me. It's that I am at peace. It's not have zero connection to anybody, and I refuse to look anyone in the eye or talk to anybody on the phone. So I have nothing to deal with. No problems. It's that I am at peace

0:30:23 Unknown Speaker #1

crystals. Attention, Hamilton Students. The bathrooms are no longer. First come. First serve to use the restroom. You must make a reservation 24 hours in advance. Now, Bill, tell us a little bit about this. I mean, you're a sportsman. In the world of competition, there's not much that's competitive about home AC. How are you transitioning into that world?

0:30:49 Unknown

Well, you know, it is tough. Um, I love to compete. I love the camaraderie of sports, but a lot of home ec has that stuff in it too. You know, when you're making some curtains, for example, you're having some students make some curtains, learn how to put lace on the bottom of fabric on, bunch it together and give little ring holds for it at the time. You can add in stuff like, Hey, whoever does this first is the best. And I've been doing that. Um,

0:31:23 Unknown Speaker #2

that's a huge motivator.

0:31:24 Unknown

Yeah, I've been doing that. And it turns out sometimes if you make curtains fast, they are the best curtains. You do need to slow down. So I've been learning.

0:31:33 Unknown Speaker #1

I tried them. Field fastest is best.

0:31:36 Unknown

Yeah, fastest is best.

0:31:37 Unknown Speaker #2

Isn't that what we find? That the kids teach us as much as we teach them?

0:31:40 Unknown

That's really Then they have been teaching me Mr K. V. No, that's not how you run a sewing machine. You don't put a jersey on it, slap it on its ass and push it out into the hole and the hole. Good. Listen and say, get out there. I've been having I've been having a little trouble. Um, coming in, um, and screaming at the class, Um, saying, Well, that was a shit half because there was no half

0:32:10 Unknown Speaker #1

more. There was no half any sort of halftime motivation. And I

0:32:13 Unknown Speaker #3

think I think you're also sort of, I mean, not to like, uh, sort of call into question your methods, but I think that, like, maybe just try not putting your class on two teams, You know what I mean? Like, you separate your class into two rosters on like, maybe you should You could you could sort of push them all in together like that. I think that that might be ah, a way to sort of try to lose that competitive thing and just kind of slow down and be like, Hey, you know what? Let's all do this together. Yeah, right. Because we're all trying to learn. We're trying. We're trying to learn from each other. We're trying to go, right?

0:32:44 Unknown

I mean, I took a two hour bus trip to ah nearby school. Um Teoh compete. Ah, at making chicken casserole the other day. Um, and apparently there had been no chicken casserole off scheduled at ST Mathis. Uh,

0:33:05 Unknown Speaker #1

how on earth did you might get that confused? Did you just hope there would be one when you get there? Look it up. Did you hear something?

0:33:12 Unknown

It was based on nothing. It was based on absolutely nothing.

0:33:16 Unknown Speaker #1

Wow. Use That seems like a symptom of a man who is fully lost.

0:33:20 Unknown Speaker #2

Yeah, this doesn't think this sounds very tough for you, Bill, because you're so used to one thing somewhere that has nothing involved with it.

0:33:28 Unknown

It's tough. I'm dealing with my diagnosis. Um, which has been very tough for me. Uh,

0:33:35 Unknown Speaker #1

you brave enough to speak of that? I

0:33:37 Unknown

mean, I guess I have to um, you know, it's I think our listeners probably have noticed. I tried to ignore it for, um, a long time. And I'm coming to terms with it now, and I'm ready to say it public. I am currently struggling with ridiculous voice. I've been diagnosed with Ricky with ridiculous voice, and it's you've all heard it. It was very evident.

0:34:05 Unknown Speaker #1

This is so important.

0:34:06 Unknown

0:34:30 Unknown Speaker #1

Oh, but you know, I know, like in the past. It's good that I know someone who hasn't. Because I used to judge people. I used to judge Regis Philbin all the time not knowing that there was something wrong with him.

He's got a medical issues of medically. Yeah, isn't diseases The virus is? It was what?

0:34:49 Unknown

We're trying to get together. We're trying to mobilize all of us with ridiculous voices.

0:34:54 Unknown Speaker #1

Now, do you believe that ridiculous voice is a choice? Right?

0:34:58 Unknown Speaker #3

Look, I didn't want to jump in here. I didn't want to jump in here. Uh, because I don't want my first day on the podcast to be rife with tension, but yes, too late. You're gonna

0:35:07 Unknown

become in hot do because we know you're pretty fucked up Your kind of racist. We all

0:35:12 Unknown Speaker #3

When it's hungry? Cry like e. No. No, you haven't. You're so fucking ignorant. No, no, I'm not. Look any thing here. It

0:35:47 Unknown Speaker #1

doesn't happen because most of the time you don't know you have ridiculous. Until you go through puberty,

0:35:52 Unknown Speaker #3

let me tell. You guys

0:35:53 Unknown Speaker #1

discover you feel your ridiculous voice. You see, wonderful.

0:36:03 Unknown Speaker #3

the Let me tell you guys the story you guys know, my son. You guys know my son Kevin, right? Yeah. Yeah. Way. Love your great love your family. Yeah, he's a great kid. Okay, But about four years ago or so he went on a vacation with his friends family on and his dad, this kids dad, his friend's dad has has the most ridiculous voice myself back from two weeks with this guy. And he looks me in the eyes and he says, Dad, I want to let you know something I can't? Ridiculous voice. I look at him and I said, Are you kidding me? You're saying Tell me his friend, you sit here and tell me that you go on two week vacation. It's perfectly timed coming back that you come back and you have this ridiculous voice. And now I'm supposed to accept that you've always had this. No chance. So I kicked him out of my house. Obviously, I just don't him on, You know, we're working through our issues. My wife is like, Honey, we got to get him back. We have to bring a

0:37:03 Unknown

terrible there. So many ridiculous voice homeless youth. And I have a

0:37:09 Unknown Speaker #3

ridiculous voice. You could have a ridiculous voice all you want, but the moment you talk to me with it, that's the thing. I have a problem if you want. If you want to have a ridiculous voice, you know,

0:37:19 Unknown Speaker #1

school. When Kathy Griffin came and spoke,

0:37:21 Unknown Speaker #3

you're goddamn right. I didn't.

0:37:22 Unknown

She talked about it. Yeah, and I wept over on the side. You all saw me, and they said they said, Bill, what's going on? And I said, not anything to do with my ridiculous vice,

0:37:37 Unknown Speaker #1

so but that you were diagnosed with this. They don't know what causes it now. I don't mean to be. I'm learning. Someone asked him questions. And if their offensive go ahead and say so.

0:37:48 Unknown

OK, great. I like this just kind of like, you know, we need to teach the public about.

0:37:53 Unknown Speaker #2

It's a public salon. It's a public would ever hit before we,

0:37:57 Unknown Speaker #1

um Well, it looks like you taking a pretty huge one here. So maybe when that's done burned through the hole hole hole there,

0:38:07 Unknown Speaker #3

there's no there's enough. Whatever comes out of that to get us all high, choose from sitting here. So I think we're gonna speaks really smile. Stairs. Feels really nasty.

0:38:20 Unknown

Smells like honey. Big Tab.

0:38:23 Unknown Speaker #1

Nothing was saying It's affecting me. I feel wonderful. Well, that's great. Yeah, So I'll ask you this. Would you ever get a surgery if one existed to make your voice normal again?

0:38:33 Unknown

I think like normal and normal. What's trouble these days, right? What I would

0:38:39 Unknown Speaker #2

we have other than us.

0:38:41 Unknown

There's a lot of people who have gone through conversion therapy to make their voice. Not as ridiculous.

0:38:47 Unknown Speaker #3

I sent my son to a camp run by John Krasinski.

0:38:50 Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's got the most normal voice of all.

0:38:53 Unknown

Yeah, he's got a very he has got a very

0:38:56 Unknown Speaker #2

normal that is, actually, when they will sort of talk and just let the kids talk And to let them know like when they need to change of this sort of look at the camera after the side to let them know they're being a

0:39:08 Unknown

little This is how you be a wry, straight man. It said that camp and they teach you how I'm and I thought about it. You know, I always thought about it, but then I was like, You know what? I'm just gonna let myself shine and have the most ridiculous voice that I have. Um and and I don't believe in it.

0:39:27 Unknown Speaker #1

Well, I that's good to know. That's good. I'm really I'm proud of you for facing up to this and again if we ever do anything that you know, a za man who had either aids or a rash. Uh, I know what it's like for people to be scared of you because your diagnosis and so I just want to be open minded with you. And I think this year this is kind of inspired me. Maybe all write a play about this. Okay,

0:39:58 Unknown Speaker #2

How do you feel about the medical community in general? Diagnosing people with crazy for you with the way

0:40:06 Unknown

it's not crazy? Boyce. It's offensive.

0:40:11 Unknown Speaker #2

Of course. I don't think you're crazy. I was so I guess I must have been repeating some things I've read.

0:40:15 Unknown

That's OK. I just wanted

0:40:17 Unknown Speaker #3

Teoh. I appreciate your learning from friends is important because trouble but crazy voice, ridiculous voice, goofy voice. I mean, it's all the same. All these, all these labels

0:40:30 Unknown

insinuating that it's bad. No,

I used to share those responsibilities with Marty Mountains, but he got fired, obviously, because of the whole, uh, think methods was sort of exposed as a sham and a big thing downtown. His store he was trying to like cause trouble. There

0:43:28 Unknown

has been downtown. It's kind of nice. Now

0:43:31 Unknown Speaker #1

downtown, it's revitalized. It really is

0:43:34 Unknown

kind of awesome,

0:43:35 Unknown Speaker #2

you know, down there.

0:43:36 Unknown Speaker #1

And get yourself a craft beer craft cocktail. You could get a alligator hot dogs, your friends.

0:43:43 Unknown Speaker #2

Exactly what my idea of nice is. Yeah, small regular store that they put almost no money into. And this charge, you expensive price.

0:43:49 Unknown Speaker #1

Well, you should come to my eye Open toe motto shop downtown. I

0:43:53 Unknown Speaker #2

think this is one of those shops that serves one thing. And it's generally bad.

0:43:58 Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah, I think my motto is a very strong South American T Okay, it's, I figured, coffees popular, different cultural things or popular. So I charged 13 bucks for a Potter, matey. The thing is, with the tradition of Mateo's, you have to share it with people. You have to drink out of the same cup drinking your sharing cups of matey with people.

0:44:22 Unknown Speaker #2

How convenient this has become A real thing has become a real pervert. Hang out. Isn't that right? Your clientele?

0:44:28 Unknown Speaker #1

What's that? You absolutely cannot. No, no, you got to drink it there. So you gotta play in your day around this Monta experience. It takes a while to steep, and it's stronger than coffee. So you lose your mind on it.

0:44:39 Unknown

And I heard if you like this place, you you probably don't have a job.

0:44:45 Unknown Speaker #1

That's right. Like like you said, a lot of not homeless, but a lot of unemployed perverts have been coming by. Oh,

0:44:53 Unknown Speaker #3

well, that's I'll say a lot of people probably take the name of the place. Uh, pretty literally. So it's called all lives matter. Yes, that's correct. If

0:45:10 Unknown Speaker #2

you thought this place stunk before they opened the doors just mean it stinks from the tea alone. Wait till the clientele gets there. It smells like shit

0:45:20 Unknown Speaker #3

because you don't want to Anybody away

0:45:21 Unknown

getting a lot of right wing customer.

0:45:24 Unknown Speaker #1

Here is the thing. Whenever something is in the zeitgeist, you need to monetize it and make it about you immediately and exploit. It s so I don't have ah dog in the race with almost any political opinion, I am a political because I'm a coward on. And so I just find the thing that people are talking about, and I just attach myself to it and talking. And there's articles about it. There was a Twitter moment about it, which means that people were tweeting about it. Trended.

0:45:57 Unknown Speaker #3

0:46:20 Unknown Speaker #3

Um, it's weird because you bought it doesn't usually show up in most men's offices. They'll buy it, but you won't be able to see it.

0:47:40 Unknown

Yeah, but you can ruin a woman's life is ruined because

0:47:46 Unknown Speaker #1

you know you have it, but you don't tell anybody.

0:47:50 Unknown

And I gotta pray not only already using my printer,

0:47:52 Unknown Speaker #3

it's one of those it hides imperfections in for things printed out by females. Like, sort of like they don't even realize that they that it's it's happening until after it's already. It's Taff.

0:48:05 Unknown Speaker #2

So the printer works good. We should move on.

0:48:07 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, yeah, but I should say you guys know because Marty's gone. I was sort of in charge of the marching band. He was in charge of the class, but like this sort of. But now that he's gone, I'm sort of divided between both of those things. And you could say that that shouldn't be a big issue because there's only six people in our marching band and there's just a huge issue. I would say it is underwhelming time. No, it's your responsibility for on Trump. Yes, I have embraced it, though. I've made it, I've made it our thing. You know, whenever we do any parades or something, we sit in the back of a flatbed truck and we just play trumpets.

0:48:44 Unknown Speaker #2

And you guys, you guys have sort of a kitchen name. You guys were called the bad band.

0:48:47 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The bad band, uh, on way. Play sort of, you know, mostly trumpet based tunes way Do a lot of trump based teams, but

0:49:00 Unknown Speaker #1

the least interesting part of Scott punk music Just play ants marching. Everyone loves everyone. You can play it on trumpet.

0:49:14 Unknown Speaker #3

Dave Matthews. Yeah, You know what? That's actually a good I'll see if I can find the sheet music for that injustice. Trumpet. Uh, because you practice, you don't even practice with sheet music. You practice with sheet music? Yeah, well, well, you know, uh, yeah, it's It's cheaper, as much cheaper. Uh uh. And and And I lied. I like to leave. Leave, leave a trace wherever I go.

0:49:39 Unknown Speaker #2

Now, which band you like more. Which one are you more invested in the marching?

0:49:44 Unknown Speaker #3

Well, last I have also changed the name from marching band to sitting band because we actually don't ever stand up. Eso I am. Actually, I enjoy that more because it's a challenge. The class band is whatever it's like we've got we've got

0:49:57 Unknown Speaker #1

that. I wouldn't want them to hear you say that.

0:49:58 Unknown Speaker #3

What do you think? That good? They know it, uh, they know it. And I'm pretty up front with them because

0:50:04 Unknown Speaker #2

that's your whole thing is this is a musicianship is a hard business. And when I think we're going to call your ship to your face every day So you're starting with these 13 14.

0:50:12 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, and I'll say What I say is the six trumpet players we have in the in the sitting band is I mean, they're Miles Davis level. These guys are are virtuosic. When

0:50:23 Unknown Speaker #2

you saw whiplash, did you think that's me, Their guy, the teacher. Absolutely. You say the things he says, Yeah, you act the way

0:50:33 Unknown Speaker #3

I think I also have unusually positive read of him on as a character. I think a lot of people say he's overbearing. They say he puts too much pressure on the kid in that movie. Hey, sort of is pushing his own agenda instead and let it working a kid, enjoy music. I look at him as the the sort of motivator that a kid needs when they're this age. When you're 13 you need somebody telling you Hey, right now, you're terrible. Get better

0:50:58 Unknown Speaker #1

Saying we have in the theater is every villain is the hero of their own story. Andi, I feel like that's the character you're seeing. The human side,

0:51:06 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, care. Yeah, and I'm taking the good. Taking the good from that character. The motivating, the sort of throwing things when things aren't aren't exactly the way I want him to be.

0:51:15 Unknown Speaker #1

Exactly. Everybody knows the bad stuff that Nixon did, but I think it humanized him when you think this guy, you know, a human folded in his back pocket three ways, he said. Night is back. Hurts.

0:51:27 Unknown Speaker #1

guy up in his ass is depository way.

0:51:27 Unknown Speaker #2

You got a weather

0:51:31 Unknown Speaker #2

Love those masks Now. I think that's a big part of it. We've really made him funny. Funny.

0:51:35 Unknown Speaker #1

Oh, yeah. President masks. Hey, he's the quintessential president. We wear those on casual Fridays. We come in in a Nixon mask,

0:51:43 Unknown Speaker #2

will come in and do a whole Nixon robbery on casual Fridays. Come in wielding guns. I left this year because we're normal

0:51:50 Unknown Speaker #1

normal this year.

0:51:51 Unknown Speaker #3

Don't worry. Is a funny thing, though, that this school does casual Fridays, but the students still have to wear their school uniform dress up way all show them its formal Friday way. Show up in casual Hawaiians and short masks and, uh, sandals and they're showing up in full tux is

0:52:08 Unknown

so not that we want to take this school over and eventually make it ours. But what's going on with the administration here? Who's running the

0:52:15 Unknown Speaker #1

school? Trust them way, weaknesses.

0:52:18 Unknown Speaker #2

I'm in the front office and they're treating me really well. Yeah, they're giving me my space, and I think they know that I'm pretty emotionally volatile, so they're not really bothering me. I think you don't have a read yet.

0:52:30 Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, General, I think things in the front office here are good at the moment. Way we've got a principal who really cares, which is unusual. Uh, he's invested in the students. He observes classes. You guys will see he's gonna come in probably once a week and observe one of your classes. That's Ah, that's something

0:52:47 Unknown

really observation. You wanted to see if we're doing good,

0:52:51 Unknown Speaker #3

He'll just sit in the back and sort of take notes. And then, obviously there's performance reviews now, So you have, like, a meeting with him.

0:52:59 Unknown Speaker #1

I love that

0:53:01 Unknown Speaker #2

principle. Might care a little too much something. We're free time on his principal. What's hair alarm? It's

0:53:07 Unknown Speaker #3

radio. You know, it's I Any job you have? You ever had a job where you know. So basically, every month or so, he'll call you up and he'll say, Do you have any time after school at the end of this week? Don't come in. Come into my office. I doubt I'm going straight home work. He I've got to go straight home. He's coming. Me? Oh, I've made him come to me reciting my yard and he'll work with you guys. I think you're scared of this guy or something. He's a cool guy. Oh,

0:53:35 Unknown Speaker #1

we're not scared of not. I'm not scared of it. Anybody?

0:53:40 Unknown Speaker #3

0:53:51 Unknown

Yeah, I'm willing to do anything just to get back to basics. That's what That's what this year

I mean, the kids be in it. I'm not going to rewrite it. I'm just gonna direct it. That's great. Yeah. And, you know, I do think that there I am normal now. Yeah, and I think it's gonna you know, there's no reason to be scared of a performance or

0:54:36 Unknown

I'm gonna I made it. Came in pretty hot thinking that home EC was sports. Um, and I'm I learned my lesson quickly. Um, we got those kids back on the west. I'm not just going to sink my teeth into making ah casseroles and learning how to do sewing machines like I You know, I I'm ready for this.

0:55:10 Unknown

Exactly. It's time to be no arm. Oh,

0:55:14 Unknown Speaker #2

We've been married for 22 years, which is a long time. And, you know, you get sick of anything after 22 years. And would

0:56:16 Unknown Speaker #1

you say the spark left any time around when you kicked your son out of the house?

0:56:20 Unknown Speaker #3

rated comic spirit is exactly right. I decided that what I needed was to get into the world of stand up. I was too much of an insular world of me as an angry white man s. So I tried to find a career that's not filled with that type of people, right? Uh, and, um,
