    1. JR

      (popping sounds) Five, four, three, two... Ladies and gentlemen, l- live and available right now, Everlast, Whitey Ford, House of Pain, you.

    2. EV

      Yes, sir.

    3. JR

      How are you, sir?

    4. EV

      How are you doing, man?

    5. JR

      Good to see you, brother. What's going on?

    6. EV

      Good to see you again. Been a minute.

    7. JR

      It's good. You going to Vegas this weekend for the fights?

    8. EV

      Yeah, man. We got a little party the night before.

    9. JR

      Ooh-whee.

    10. EV

      We're- we're doing a little show at the Brooklyn Bowl with my buddy, Evidence, and- and s- my crew, Cycle Realm.

    11. JR

      No headphones? You don't wanna wear headphones?

    12. EV

      No, I'ma put the headphones on.

    13. JR

      I feel like I'm alone here with the headphones on.

    14. EV

      There we go.

    15. JR

      There we go. Now, we're-

    16. EV

      Now, we're-

    17. JR

      ... now, we're-

    18. EV

      ... now, we're on the same team.

    19. JR

      ... now, we're locked in.

    20. EV

      (laughs)

    21. JR

      Um, is this out? This is out, right?

    22. EV

      Yeah. It came out about, uh, three weeks ago, may- something like that, maybe a month.

    23. JR

      Beautiful.

    24. EV

      I've been in Europe for the whole month just touring, so...

    25. JR

      This is like everything. Everlast Presents Whitey Ford's House of Pain.

    26. EV

      Yeah. It's- it's-

    27. JR

      A lot going on there.

    28. EV

      ... you know, it's everything in the toolbox I brought to this record, so that's kinda where the title came from. Just, you know, it's been eight years since my last real studio album, so, eh, I figured, "Hey, maybe this could be the last one." I hope not, but-

    29. JR

      What?

    30. EV

      ... just like, uh, y- you know the- I mean, like, you know the- my story. It's like, you know, with the- the family.

  2. 1:193:56

    Accountability, therapy, and family pressures (cystic fibrosis)

    1. EV

      I- w- honestly, it started here because I'm- I- I p- I purposely came here that day. It was the first time, if you remember, and this was a while ago. I done- I've done 1,000 podcasts (laughs) since that day. But, uh, it was the first time I had come out and I started talking about anything, like, you know, that was going on in- in- in my life in a public way.

    2. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    3. EV

      And, uh, you know, I had- I- I got a lot off my chest that day, and I also planned that day to- to put myself in a position to hold myself accountable by dis- by stating I- I don't feel good about the way I look right now, and I reached out for- I- like, theoretically, for help.

    4. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    5. EV

      You know, and I got an incredible response from the podcast audience and my own fans, and I mean, I got offered from everybody everywhere how to do this, that, and the other. Um, didn't really need that 'cause within my own circle, some people stepped up. And I also did it to hold myself accountable to put it in the universe, like, "I've thrown it out there now."

    6. JR

      Right.

    7. EV

      Like, I- I- I- I put it up there on the wall and s-

    8. JR

      Yep.

    9. EV

      ... and- and stamped it and said, "Here's what I want outta life right now." And-

    10. JR

      Yeah.

    11. EV

      ... you know, there's nobody stopping me but me. And sometimes, some of the things I- we used to- you- I used to get on and see you talking about, "I'm not letting this inner bitch kick my ass today." And I- and I-

    12. JR

      (laughs)

    13. EV

      ... just started taking things like that to heart, you know. And again, after-

    14. JR

      So, what did you- how'd you change? What'd you do different?

    15. EV

      I mean, I- l- we started talking about it last time. Therapy. You know what I mean? It's helped a lot for me because o- of this, you know, s- the- the- the added pressures our family faces with my- my y- oldest daughter having cystic fibrosis, you know, it just, for a long time, it was just learning how to live life with it. You know, and that got heavy. There was some real dark, you know, heavy moments, you know, scary moments for her in the hospital, you know. So, we ha- I mean, as a human, you know, you have this baby, and you- you're just trying to figure out how to not screw it up with a normal health situation, you know? This is-

    16. JR

      Right.

    17. EV

      ... this added thing. So, took a long time for me to come to terms. At first, I got really angry. I got into some real, uh, you know, Lieutenant Dan, war with God kinda stuff, you know, at the top of the sailboat flip, you know, as- I was there all the way. And it got to a point where I almost, I was at- I almost got locked up for trying to fight a cop that was, you know, trying to just talk to me about something. You know, I just lost my... I w- I had no r- ... I had so much anger over so much that I wasn't dealing with, and then I found a guy that just really got me, therapist, and- and it- it began the- the- the- the ball rolling of understanding how to- how to cope with a lot of that stuff, you know.

    18. JR

      Mm. Wow. So, um, as far as like, first of all, you look really good.

    19. EV

      Thank you, man.

    20. JR

      Your face- your face looks great. Your skin looks good.

    21. EV

      Mm-hmm. I'm- I'm taking a lot better care of myself.

    22. JR

      It looks like it.

    23. EV

      Thank you.

  3. 3:567:29

    Training and comeback plans: cardio, clean eating, and returning to jiu-jitsu

    1. JR

      Are you- what are you doing different as far as like how you eat, or?

    2. EV

      Um, just eating cleaner. You know, just trying not to, you know, uh, to be more aware of what's in the food and what's in the meat and stuff, you know. I'm still part of the whole commercial meat system, though I- I long to- to- to get it to a situation where I'm hunting and- and doing things like that. It's just-

    3. JR

      We had talked about that for a while.

    4. EV

      Yeah, yeah, he-

    5. JR

      ... you wanted to try hunting pigs at, uh, Tejon Ranch, right?

    6. EV

      Well, I- I s- I asked you what would be a- the best-

    7. JR

      Yeah.

    8. EV

      ... you know, starting point, and you were like, "You know, they got boar up there at El Tejon, and I know some guys." And- and I actually contacted them, and I, you know, I- I just, again, this life.

    9. JR

      You're so busy, yeah.

    10. EV

      It's not just this. It's this- the- the added stress of like-

    11. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    12. EV

      ... you know, I have a wife that when I go on the road, she's the sole handler of these problems, you know what I mean?

    13. JR

      Right, right.

    14. EV

      And- and so that- these things, you know, pile on you, guilt and this, you know, stress and all this, you know.

    15. JR

      Yeah.

    16. EV

      And, um, so yeah, it's just between that and when I'm home, I just invest myself. I wanna be home. I wanna do as much as I can to lift that weight.

    17. JR

      Right.

    18. EV

      So, like, I get caught up by the things- all the things I wanna do, I can't do all the time, you know what I mean? But it started again. Now, I'm taking care of myself. Like, I'm actually about to start jujitsu again, you know, which I've-

    19. JR

      Really?

    20. EV

      ... I- I- I, yeah, because I- I've forever, I was so f- kind of goddamn fat in the middle, hip escapes were like, you know, every-

    21. JR

      (laughs)

    22. EV

      ... I was hurting my back or my neck every other time I tried to do it. I just quit-

    23. JR

      Right.

    24. EV

      ... 'cause it was getting ... you know what I mean? I mean, I wasn't super advanced. I was probably pretty close to getting a blue belt, you know. I- I was about a year in on like four lessons a week with just the private, you know. I was with Marcus Vinicius at Beverly-

    25. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    26. EV

      ... Beverly Hills Jujitsu for a while.

    27. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    28. EV

      So now, I'm- I'm- I'm- I'm just looking to see what I wanna do, you know. I've talked to Eddie a few times. I'm talking to a few other guys. Kron has thrown some-

    29. JR

      Are you, um ...

    30. EV

      ... advice my way.

  4. 7:299:49

    Living with a titanium heart valve: blood thinners, diet limits, and the "click"

    1. JR

      ... weight. Yeah. Um, are you taking vitamins or supplements or anything along those lines?

    2. EV

      Uh, like, a daily. Um, but I g-

    3. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    4. EV

      ... you know, I have restrictions 'cause I take blood thinners and stuff 'cause of this-

    5. JR

      Right.

    6. EV

      ... titanium heart valve I have.

    7. JR

      Right.

    8. EV

      So, like, I have to have a vitamin that's d- devoid of, uh, vitamin K-

    9. JR

      Oh.

    10. EV

      ... 'cause that's what makes your blood clot. So I, like... A lot of things, like a lot of the juicing things and, like, things like that, when you wanna go on a juice cleanse, I can't do it 'cause it's, like... A lot of it's kale-based and, like, kale is heavy green with a... It's high in vitamin K. It'll totally-

    11. JR

      Oh.

    12. EV

      ... like, screw up my blood chemistry with... You know, 'cause I'm going the other direction with blood thinners.

    13. JR

      Damn.

    14. EV

      Yeah.

    15. JR

      Jesus Christ.

    16. EV

      I have to. Otherwise, like, a clot could hit, like, stick to that-

    17. JR

      Ooh.

    18. EV

      ... titanium valve, break off, and wind up in my brain, you know what I mean?

    19. JR

      Jesus.

    20. EV

      And then I'm stroked out, and that's the last thing we need.

    21. JR

      Fuck. Yeah. I remember when you put the microphone up to your heart and you can hear the... (making clicking noises)

    22. EV

      Yeah. I, I would s- I'm so, so... Like, when I'm in here, I keep feeling like it, you t- you can hear it anyways, like, all through this. I hear it 20...

    23. JR

      Can you hear it?

    24. EV

      It's white noise to me. If I wanna hear it, I can hear it. I can take my pulse like this (snapping fingers) just by telling you.

    25. JR

      Wow.

    26. EV

      Two, three-

    27. JR

      You can feel it?

    28. EV

      ... four. Yeah. (laughs) I can hear it in my own skull.

    29. JR

      Wow.

    30. EV

      Like, I can hear it in my bones. Like, I can hear it. It's in me.

  5. 9:4912:06

    Future bodies and Elon Musk: flamethrowers, wealth, and tech hype

    1. JR

      (exhales) Powerful medical te- technology. Eddie Bravo's got a titanium disc in his back now.

    2. EV

      Yeah. He just had a surgery. That's right.

    3. JR

      Yeah. His back moves around great. It... Like, he was fully compressed where there was, like, nothing left. It was basically bone on bone. He was in pain all the time, and they just opened him up and put a fake valve in there.

    4. EV

      That's crazy, man.

    5. JR

      Or a fake, uh, disc, rather, in there. But it, it's articulating, so it, like, moves around like a regular disc.

    6. EV

      Yeah.

    7. JR

      Like, he's, his... It doesn't... It's not like he's fused, even if you're seeing people that are all fused.

    8. EV

      Yeah, yeah. They get the fuse... I have a friend that got that done.

    9. JR

      Yeah. They're super stiff.

    10. EV

      Yeah.

    11. JR

      Like, wherever it is, it's basically locked down. There's no movement to it anymore. But Eddie's is, is actually... It moves like a real disc.

    12. EV

      Yeah. That shit that's gonna be coming down the pipeline-

    13. JR

      Woo.

    14. EV

      ... is gonna be crazy.

    15. JR

      Crazy.

    16. EV

      Man.

    17. JR

      Yeah. I mean, I know people with fake everything. I know people with fake hips and fake knees and fake butts.

    18. EV

      Fake heart valves.

    19. JR

      Fake heart valves. Yeah. Yeah. It's a- m- amazing. I mean, at a certain point in time, they're just gonna replace your whole body and take your brain out-

    20. EV

      Mm-hmm.

    21. JR

      ... and put it in someone's new body.

    22. EV

      Or you're just gonna be able to download your consciousness, you know? (laughs)

    23. JR

      Well, that's what Elon was saying.

    24. EV

      Yo, you, your man got in troub- mad trouble.

    25. JR

      He didn't really.

    26. EV

      (laughs)

    27. JR

      It's fake.

    28. EV

      That was... They've made... It just made some noise, man.

    29. JR

      Yeah. But here's the deal, dude. When you got $25 billion, all trouble is bullshit.

    30. EV

      Truth.

  6. 12:0620:08

    Fight weekend in Vegas: walkout songs, superstition stats, and gambling freedom

    1. JR

      (sighs) So, uh, you looking forward to the fights this weekend?

    2. EV

      I'm, I'm, super jacked for it, man. I... you know, we got this little show before.

    3. JR

      Is anybody coming out to Jump Around?

    4. EV

      Um, I don't know.

    5. JR

      They have to.

    6. EV

      They, they… You know. I'm waiting for Conor to, you know...

    7. JR

      How does he not-

    8. EV

      I don't know. You know what I mean?

    9. JR

      ... adopt that song? Well, he comes out to Sinéad O'Connor, right?

    10. EV

      Like, he does, like, usually, like, that into, like, the Notorious, like-

    11. JR

      Right.

    12. EV

      ... song. Like-

    13. JR

      Right.

    14. EV

      ... the... you know the-

    15. JR

      Yeah.

    16. EV

      ... I don't know. << The Notorious >>

    17. JR

      Right. Yeah.

    18. EV

      Or...

    19. JR

      Who was coming out to Jump Around? Marcus Davis did.

    20. EV

      He did. I know, uh, uh, Cavillo, that, that, the, the female fighter. Uh, she's fights-

    21. JR

      Cynthia Cavillo?

    22. EV

      Yes. Yeah.

    23. JR

      Yeah.

    24. EV

      Cavillo. Thank you.

    25. JR

      Yeah.

    26. EV

      I know she comes out to Jump Around.

    27. JR

      Right.

    28. EV

      I met her at a fight. She was super cool. She was super, super, super cool.

    29. JR

      Quite a few people have come out to it.

    30. EV

      Yeah. I think Machida came out to it once.

  7. 20:0828:36

    Whiskey talk and Sober October updates (plus a rant about ripped jeans)

    1. EV

      I wanna try this whiskey, honestly, that he's got. I, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta-

    2. JR

      Yeah, you're a whiskey expert, right?

    3. EV

      Yeah, I wanna, I wanna lay hands on it and see.

    4. JR

      What's a good whiskey?

    5. EV

      I was, I actually was gonna bring you a bottle of this.

    6. JR

      Uh-huh.

    7. EV

      And I will next time, but I didn't because of out of respect-

    8. JR

      Sober October.

    9. EV

      ... for Sober October.

    10. JR

      Sober October may be falling apart, I'm gonna tell you right now.

    11. EV

      Well-

    12. JR

      Ladies and gentlemen, Bert Kreischer's going on a cruise and Ari Shaffir and Tom Segura both gave him the green light to, uh, drink because, uh, this fitness challenge is falling apart. Meanwhile, Bert is strongly in last place. Yeah, all that talk about the Mickey Mantle gene, he's not even close. But what's, what's fascinating is Ari Shaffir is very close to me. He's only, he posted today before my workout, that sneaky bitch, that he was ahead of me. But that's how close he is. He's so close that before his workout, he was like 100 points ahead of me. Before my workout rather, after his. Now he's like 400 points behind me. But that's, uh, that's close. 400 points is one workout. If you're a- an asshole and you wanna get on a fucking treadmill for two hours, you can bang out 400 points. I banged out 500 today. 507 at the end of the workout.

    13. EV

      You're a beast, dude.

    14. JR

      It's not a beast, man. It's boring.

    15. EV

      Redbreast.

    16. JR

      I was watching, I was watching, uh, Gladiator. There's little red spikes in my workout where I hit 90 per- that's when the fights were happening. I got amped. (laughs)

    17. EV

      (laughs)

    18. JV

      You might end up doing podcasts while you're on a, uh, elliptical at the end of the month.

    19. JR

      Eh, it would suck.

    20. EV

      Redbreast is my favorite new whiskey.

    21. JR

      Redbreast?

    22. EV

      Yeah.

    23. JR

      Who makes that?

    24. EV

      It's Redbreast. It's the, it's like an Irish whiskey.

    25. JR

      Oh.

    26. EV

      Get the, I'm gonna bring you a bottle of the 20 year old. It's, it's gorgeous.

    27. JR

      20 years old?

    28. EV

      Yeah, yeah.

    29. JR

      Ooh.

    30. EV

      It's beautiful.

  8. 28:3636:21

    Kanye, Kardashians, and monetized spectacle: fame as an attention economy

    1. JR

      Did you see Kanye jumped on the table at a University?

    2. JV

      Yeah.

    3. JR

      Was talking about leaving Elon Musk alone.

    4. EV

      That dude has lost his mind, man.

    5. JR

      What is going on?

    6. EV

      I don't know, man. I, I... You know, there's a lot of people that speculate and that's all I would say this is from me.

    7. JR

      This is-

    8. EV

      But ever since that man's mother died, he's been on a downward spiral, like losing his shit.

    9. JR

      Well-

    10. EV

      Uh, you know, I think he's suffering from some serious, like mental shit.

    11. JR

      No bullshit. He did get into a serious car accident, right?

    12. EV

      Mm-hmm.

    13. JR

      Broke his jaw.

    14. EV

      Yeah, yeah. Before that.

    15. JR

      He was seriously injured.

    16. EV

      Yeah. Long... A few years before that, yeah.

    17. JR

      That, that is not a joke.

    18. EV

      No.

    19. JR

      Like brain trauma and you... Listen, I'm not a doctor or anything even remotely related to one, but I've been around a lot of people who've been hit in the head a lot. That shit's real. Like that, that will change your brain chemistry. It's 100% legit. Like getting hit in the head is no bueno. And car accidents will fuck people up forever. Some people. Some people are okay, they get... They recover. But boy, there's a lot of people that come back from some significant head trauma and just... They're scrambled, man. And he might be one of those. And it also might be what I talked about in my last special, Triggered. But you live with crazy bitches long enough-

    20. EV

      Yeah, I remember that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    21. JR

      ... they get to you. Something happens.

    22. EV

      You were talking about the soul-stealing succubi. (laughs)

    23. JR

      (laughs) Yes. It might be true.

    24. EV

      Dude, that was an amazing routine. I gotta tell you.

    25. JR

      Well, I was trying to figure out a way that I could get away with making fun of Bruce Jenner without being called transphobic.

    26. EV

      (laughs)

    27. JR

      So I had to go a circuitous route.

    28. EV

      It, it was brilliant.

    29. JR

      I had to go a long route-

    30. EV

      Saw you do it at con... At the com...

    Dark history tourism: catacombs, bone churches, Pompeii, and volcano fears

    1. JR

      They figured out a lot of shit. Have you ever been to Paris?

    2. EV

      Oh, I love Paris. It's one of my favorite cities.

    3. JR

      Did you ever go to that place underneath it has all the skeletons?

    4. EV

      No, I have not been to the Catacombs. Friends of mine have gone though.

    5. JR

      Yeah. I wanna go, man. I wanna go and see that.

    6. EV

      Yeah. You can get tours and all kinds of shit like that.

    7. JR

      What was that, the people that died in the plague, is that what it is?

    8. EV

      I think so.

    9. JR

      And they just buried them?

    10. EV

      Yeah, they, you know, the, um, the church, like wh-... put 'em all in, in the catacombs.

    11. JR

      Do you know at one time, Paris had a wolf problem and people were getting killed by wolves?

    12. EV

      In recent history?

    13. JR

      The 1400s.

    14. EV

      Oh, okay.

    15. JR

      Look at that. Wow. Look at those pictures of all those skulls. Yeah, there's a crazy story about the wolves in Paris.

    16. EV

      But I have been to a place that re- whenever I see pictures of this, it reminds me, there's a place in-

    17. JR

      Wow.

    18. EV

      ... I wanna say ... What country is Prague? The Czech Republic? I think it's, it's called Kutna Hora, K-U-T-N-A H-O-R-A. It's like a church that's built-

    19. JR

      Oh, I've seen that.

    20. EV

      ... of sk- like thousands of people's skeletons, man.

    21. JR

      Yeah.

    22. EV

      It's crazy. Yeah. There it is, dude.

    23. JR

      That's it. What?

    24. EV

      That place is bananas, man.

    25. JR

      Did you go to that too?

    26. EV

      Oh, no, I've been there. I haven't been to the catacombs.

    27. JR

      Oh my God.

    28. EV

      But I'm saying whenever I see pictures of the catacombs ... But this place is like an entire church decorated and then they have like little dens or like places-

    29. JR

      Ugh.

    30. EV

      ... like altars. It's like thousands and thousands. Those are like vertebrate. There's spine. Oh, no. There's another one where it's like all spines-

  10. 42:5548:59

    Vatican awe to organized religion critique: power, scandal, and the Golden Rule

    1. JR

      Yeah. That's my feet right there. So you're in this church, the church is 1,000 years old, and that... Go back to that last one, Jamie. That one, that's, that's the glass floor, and then you look down and they have this entirely different church underneath it that's way older. They don't know how old it is. Been there forever. Could be several thousand years old. The church is gorgeous, though. There's a lot of those churches in... Have... You've been to the Vatican, right?

    2. EV

      Yeah.

    3. JR

      That's the mind-fuck of all mind-fucks.

    4. EV

      Yeah, that's crazy.

    5. JR

      Like St. Peter's Basilica, when you're walking around that place and you're just like, "What?"

    6. EV

      Yeah, it's amazing.

    7. JR

      Like, "Who... How? How did people do this?"

    8. EV

      It's retarted, man.

    9. JR

      It's un-

    10. EV

      That whole-

    11. JR

      ... unbelievable.

    12. EV

      The whole Vatican just-

    13. JR

      No, no power saws.

    14. EV

      Nothing.

    15. JR

      No, no fucking cranes. Everything was, like, ladders and shit.

    16. EV

      And the paintings and the art-

    17. JR

      Yeah.

    18. EV

      ... just insane.

    19. JR

      Stunning.

    20. EV

      Yeah.

    21. JR

      Stunning. Billions of dollars worth of art. And the whole area, the whole Vatican is essentially its own country.

    22. EV

      Yeah.

    23. JR

      So they can keep those kid-fuckers over there and they never have to export 'em.

    24. EV

      Yeah. That's, that's...

    25. JR

      Yeah. Yeah. That's the darkest of the dark.

    26. EV

      No argu- no argument here. (laughs)

    27. JR

      Nobody can, man. They, they'll try. People get mad. And look, I get it, I was a Catholic for a little bit. That's a dark, dark institution. There is no denying it. I mean, they just, they've just busted another group of priests in, in, uh, Pennsylvania. Molested more than 1,000 kids.

    28. EV

      Yeah.

    29. JR

      Moving 'em around-

    30. EV

      I mean-

  11. 48:5955:49

    Politics as theater: Kavanaugh hearings and biopics rewriting history

    1. JR

      Yeah, but the problem is there's so many people that just... The, uh... And we're, we're seeing this with politics, right? Like, I'm, I'm fascinated by these Kavanaugh hearings. Like, I'll watch little clips of it before I just have to tune out and talk the fuck away-

    2. EV

      Talking about fuckery.

    3. JR

      Fuckery. Talk about fuckery.

    4. EV

      (laughs)

    5. JR

      I mean, I don't know what that dude did or what he didn't do, but I think what's happening is more than that. What's happening is, first of all, he's involved with, uh... He was a big part of the Patriot Act. He was... You know, he's involved in some, some issues that a lot of people are very concerned with, in terms of, like, how... His position and his stance on privacy and on rights and-

    6. EV

      Absolutely.

    7. JR

      Yeah. There's, there's more to it than just, "Did you fuck with someone in high school? Did you sexually assault someone? Did you do that when you were 18? Did you... Do you remember?" Like, there's more to it than that. There's, there's like... They don't want that guy in there. And then you're seeing all the people that want to pretend that he's the best guy ever and all the people...

    8. EV

      It's crazy ness, man.

    9. JR

      Yeah. It's fascinating. It's really fascinating. It's fascinating to watch because it's essentially like a, a less... Like, the, the Clarence Thomas hearings from, was it like the 1980s, I believe? Clarence Thomas. I feel like that was like-

    10. EV

      Late '80s, early '90s.

    11. JR

      Yeah, somewhere around there. Clarence Thomas, that was like with Anita Hill, where he had sexually harassed her. They were working together and she came-

    12. EV

      Yeah, the whole pubic hairs on the whatever, Coke or something.

    13. JR

      Do you know that he's now the longest running, um, member of the Supreme Court?

    14. EV

      I-

    15. JR

      He's n- he's now been in the Supreme Court longer, I think... I read that. Check to make sure that's true.

    16. EV

      Isn't Ruth Greater Gins- uh, Bader Ginsburg, hasn't she been there longer?

    17. JV

      She's the longest serving, 26 years as of October 4th, it will be.

    18. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    19. EV

      Oh, wow.

    20. JR

      It will be. Yeah.

    21. EV

      Crazy.

    22. JR

      Crazy. Yeah, so it didn't work. Anita Hill is out there living with the memory of pubic hairs on Coke.

    23. EV

      Yeah. And a movie now, an HBO movie not too long ago.

    24. JR

      Oh, yeah. Did you watch it?

    25. EV

      I saw it. It was, it was-

    26. JR

      Was it okay?

    27. EV

      It was a pretty good movie. It was just... You know. We lived through it, so it's like, it's like whenever I see movies about like the OJ trial or something-

    28. JR

      Right.

    29. EV

      ... and I'm like, "No, I saw the... We saw it live-

    30. JR

      Right.

  12. 55:491:25:33

    Movies that wreck your mood, DJ Khaled catchphrases, and the value of comedy

    1. EV

      I played myself once on tour. I fucking... It was like back when you got D- When the ever- when the Tower Records and those things were still around. Like, on Tuesdays, the movies and the records-

    2. JR

      Yeah.

    3. EV

      ... would all come out. So we were on tour, we would stop and buy a bunch of shit for the bus, buy records and this. I bought a bunch of movies and I threw on Magnolia, had just come out.

    4. JR

      Ooh.

    5. EV

      I watched that and I was like, "Oh wow, that was fucking fucked up."

    6. JR

      (laughs)

    7. EV

      And then without looking, I just grabbed the next movie and put it in, and it was Titus Andronicus. And I don't know if you're aware or like hip to this, it's like one of the darkest fucking Shakespeare fucking plays ever about this... I mean, you... I ju- go s- if you ain't seen it-

    8. JR

      What? I want-

    9. EV

      ... when, when you got the wherewithal to sit through some real fucking darkness, Anthony Hopkins is fucking insane in this movie as Titus Andronicus.

    10. JR

      Oh.

    11. EV

      It's, it's fucking dark. So I watched these two movies back to back and for T- two weeks, Joe, I can't shake the like, just depressing-

    12. JR

      The imagery?

    13. EV

      ... like, oh my God, there's no happy endings anywhere. The world's a- yeah. (laughs)

    14. JR

      Ugh.

    15. EV

      From then on, I'll only watch comedies and fucking like, Pixar movies (laughs) and old Warner Brother cartoons out there on the road, man.

    16. JR

      Is he eating dinner while people are hanging in front of him?

    17. EV

      Um, I... Do you, uh, do you wanna know?

    18. JR

      No.

    19. EV

      You're never gonna watch this, right? He's about to cut them up and make dinner out of them and serve them-

    20. JR

      Oh.

    21. EV

      ... to his own, to their families. Like, it's, it's dark, man.

    22. JR

      Oh, Jesus.

    23. EV

      It's, it's really dark. It's one of the dark... It is the darkest Shakespeare, like, thing I've ever read or seen.

    24. JR

      Okay, that's enough.

    25. EV

      And that was right after Magnolia, I watched that. (laughs)

    26. JR

      Man, a double whammy-

    27. EV

      Double whammy-

    28. JR

      ... of depression.

    29. EV

      ... dude. Oh, it was horrible.

    30. JR

      Remember that movie 21 Grams?
