    4. JB

      (laughs)

    5. JR

      Good to see you, my brother.

    6. JB

      You too, man. I feel like I'm- I feel like I'm seeing, um, like a high school friend.

    7. JR

      I know.

    8. JB

      And I've been out of high school for a long time.

    9. JR

      But when we met, we were, like, fresh out of high school.

    10. JB

      Yeah.

    11. JR

      When we met, we were in our early 20s.

    12. JB

      Yeah, we were really young.

    13. JR

      Yeah.

    14. JB

      We were young.

    15. JR

      Bro, we've been friends for, like, 31 years.

    16. JB

      Dude. (laughs)

    17. JR

      So crazy. Or maybe 32. It might be 32 years.

    18. JB

      Yeah, but, well, I've been married-

    19. JR

      It's, like, '91?

    20. JB

      ... 30.

    21. JR

      Yeah.

    22. JB

      And I wasn't married. I was with the same girl.

    23. JR

      Yeah, yeah.

    24. JB

      And so that was at least-

    25. JR

      So, like-

    26. JB

      ... 31, 32 years ago.

    27. JR

      ... at least 31, 32 years ago. Yeah. (laughs)

    28. JB

      Bro, and you-

    29. JR

      (laughs)

    30. JB

      ... you cracked me up then and you crack me up now.

  2. 15:0030:00

    Yeah. …

    1. JB

      Canada. It doesn't fucking matter. All I know is you're in a cage and this one goes really high, really high, right?

    2. JR

      Yeah.

    3. JB

      So I'm like, you know what, it's fucking h- uh, the kids, this one's seven, I'll be cool. We got in, uh, I don't think I made it to halfway and then they started with the shaking and the fucking shaking and I, I've, I've, I was so scared I threatened my child's li- I told them I was gonna punch their fucking faces in.

    4. JR

      (laughs)

    5. JB

      I sw- I swear to God. I'm screaming going, "I will punch your fucking face in right now."

    6. NA

      (laughs)

    7. JB

      "I swear to God." And my wife's like, "Jame, stop." And that was it, man. That was it. Shut my eyes, fucking I'm never tempting heights ever again in my life.

    8. JR

      (laughs)

    9. JB

      I don't need to. I'm 55, I'm done. Fucking done.

    10. JR

      It's not necessary.

    11. JB

      It's not necessary. I don't need it.

    12. JR

      You're having a job where you re- literally risk your life climbing scaffoldings and hanging on while you're screwing things in. Bro.

    13. JB

      It's crazy.

    14. JR

      It's hard work, man.

    15. JB

      That's man stuff.

    16. JR

      Shout out to all the construction workers out there listening to this.

    17. JB

      That's man stuff.

    18. JR

      That's, that's, that's real work.

    19. JB

      That's man stuff.

    20. JR

      That taught me, that was like one of the most important things about me becoming a comedian. (laughs) Having like really hard labor jobs and realizing like I don't wanna do this. Like I gotta, I gotta figure something out.

    21. JB

      Yeah. My dad was sanitation. I'd watch, I, I'd watch him and like, "I don't know if I can..." You know, I'd watch people working all day, like, "I don't know if I can do this, dude."

    22. JR

      Also, imagine if you're doing sanitation, okay, and you're grabbing garbage cans and you're throwing them in, what are you smelling all day?

    23. JB

      Pff.

    24. JR

      What are you smelling all day and how, how can that not be bad for you, right?

    25. JB

      Right.

    26. JR

      Like toxic fumes, if you work in a factory, you have to have fucking the respirator thing on and the masks. W- how is, how is that okay that these garbagemen are just breathing in toxic fumes all day? If you can smell it-

    27. JB

      Yeah.

    28. JR

      ... it means it's getting in your body.

    29. JB

      And they, and they were all like, his whole crew were all World War II guys. So they all came back.

    30. JR

      Mm.

  3. 30:0045:00

    (laughs) …

    1. JR

      that it stops viral replication in vitro.

    2. JB

      (laughs)

    3. JR

      That there's studies on it, the fact that it stops yellow fever. It stop... People get all these parasites, it kills them.

    4. JB

      (laughs)

    5. JR

      You're so stupid.

    6. JB

      Oh my God.

    7. JR

      It was one of the dumbest things.

    8. JB

      (laughs) It was so great.

    9. JR

      But how could you, how could anyone ever trust them now when you know that this is how they treat something as so easily provable of being false, and what doesn't make any sense? Like, the attack literally makes no sense. Y- you should be asking, "Hey, how'd you get better so quick?"

    10. JB

      ... exactly.

    11. JR

      And I got the, the hard one supposedly, that's the Delta. Like, how'd you get better so quick?

    12. JB

      Won't you... Th- that is common sense.

    13. JR

      Common sense. But instead-

    14. JB

      But how, how did they create this-

    15. JR

      Because this one narrative thing, the thing that Dr. Malone talked about. Instead of like saying, "Ho, oh, what kind of life choices is he making? What medicines did he take? What are, what are monoclonal antibodies? What, what is IV vitamins? How does that help when you're sick? You know, what, what, can you take that, when you're normal sick or is it just COVID that it helps?" Like, IV zinc, IV vitamin C and D and B, all that shit is fucking amazing for you.

    16. JB

      Do you think that enough people realized... Because that's the thing, if you're just hanging out with someone... If, if you hang out with me, and eventually I start lying to you all the time, are you gonna take anything I say seriously?

    17. JR

      Right, it's over. Yeah.

    18. JB

      Who in your life do you know that-

    19. JR

      That lies all the time-

    20. JB

      ... that lies-

    21. JR

      ... that you take seriously?

    22. JB

      ... and you take seriously?

    23. JR

      None, no one.

    24. JB

      So now that every media group that exist lied right to your face, right to... Like, while they were doing it, they were, they... Someone had to have been writing and going, "Oh my God, this is like such dick stuff, but I love being a fucking dick."

    25. JR

      You know what it's like? The corporations, we want to think of them as being these impossibly large machines that make money, and they are, but they're just run by people.

    26. JB

      Yeah.

    27. JR

      And some people are dorks. And those dorks get important jobs and they put Dylan Mulvaney on a Bud Light can.

    28. JB

      (laughs)

    29. JR

      That's what it is. These are dorks. And you see the response that Bud had, the most recent response? It's, it's like the fucking dumbest pro-America rah, wah, rah, rah. Like, we don't know who you really are now. There's like interviews with the lady who was the, the head of Bud Light talking about why they did it and about the old sort of frat culture attached to Bud Light. Dismissing-

    30. JB

      (laughs)

  4. 45:001:00:00

    Yeah. …

    1. JB

    2. JR

      Yeah.

    3. JB

      And I remember I was in the balcony. I'm like, I'm... And I'm laughing like, "Ha-ha-ha. Dude, is he just fucking..."

    4. JR

      Yeah.

    5. JB

      Like, "Hey, tomorrow I'm coming away with a Texas thing. I wanna see, I wanna see how it's going."

    6. JR

      Uh...

    7. JB

      It was really funny, though. But, like, yeah. I feel like I need a truck. I, I... Yeah. I like the, the little bit of the, um... I like the hillbilly thing going on.

    8. JR

      Well, if you want a truck that never breaks, get yourself a Toyota. Get yourself, like, uh, one of those, uh, Tacomas. They make great little trucks. If you want a little truck. If you want a bigger truck, get yourself a Tundra. Those fucking things never break, man.

    9. JB

      Ooh.

    10. JR

      There's something about T- the Toyotas' build quality. I know so many people that have Tacomas. They never have a problem with those things. Never. They just drive. They just go.

    11. JB

      Everyone says Toyota is the... If you do-... If you want a car or a vehicle that's gonna last a long time-

    12. JR

      Yes.

    13. JB

      ... do the Toyota.

    14. JR

      Yes.

    15. JB

      And it took a while with my dad 'cause my dad would just, he wouldn't do it, and then finally, I think his last car was a Toyota Camry.

    16. JR

      So much of our cars are built overseas anyway.

    17. JB

      Yeah. Jesus Christ.

    18. JR

      Parts and stuff.

    19. JB

      Who cares?

    20. JR

      It's like, the reality is, like, they build Honda NSXs in Ohio. You know? They were, it weren't... Wasn't it in Ohio?

    21. NA

      It was, yeah.

    22. JR

      Yeah. They mean, like, that's a Japanese car being made in America. Like, there's, there's a world market when it comes to cars. There's no... Like, if you wanted to have a car that's like a really American-made car, Tesla is about as close as you get. And even Tesla, of course, the batteries don't come from America. Like, the, the minerals don't come from America. There's... You know. You wanna get an American car? Get an old car. That's, that's a real American car. Get a 1969-

    23. JB

      With a stick shift?

    24. JR

      ... Camaro.

    25. JB

      One of them stick shifts or something.

    26. JR

      Yeah, fucking... (imitates engine revving)

    27. JB

      (laughs)

    28. JR

      Just driving down the Tallahassee highway.

    29. JB

      Yes.

    30. JR

      Yeah.

  5. 1:00:001:14:14

    Yeah. …

    1. JR

      him apart.

    2. JB

      Yeah.

    3. JR

      It's horrible.

    4. JB

      It's horrifying.

    5. JR

      Yeah.

    6. JB

      But that's your... Not the horrifying part, but that's your peace. That's your going away. Uh, I'm learning that from hunters, where a lot of the hunters... I shouldn't say a lot, like, it's a... The ones that I know, it's, it's not only, it's not so much the hunt. I mean, yes, it's the hunt, but it's also being out there in nature, in the wild, just you and nature, and that, that just completely reboots everything about you.

    7. JR

      Yeah, that's certainly a part of it. That's certainly a part of it. There's a lot of things-

    8. JB

      Because you-

    9. JR

      ... going on out there. It's also, like, there's a connection to the, the actual cycle of life. Like, you'll stumble upon a dead animal that, you know, has been torn apart by something.

    10. JB

      Right.

    11. JR

      And we, we were in, uh, British Columbia once, and, uh, we stumbled upon this, uh, cow, uh, moose, or this calf rather-

    12. JB

      Yeah.

    13. JR

      ... that had been torn apart by wolves. And we... it's just all hair and bones, and it's... it's just wild.

    14. JB

      Yeah, you see... that, that's another reason why I like...... to... I like going to Africa, you know, on a safari.

    15. JR

      Yeah.

    16. JB

      Going to... I love... It just... It snaps you back into reality.

    17. JR

      Yeah.

    18. JB

      This is, this is true life. This is true nature.

    19. JR

      Yeah.

    20. JB

      And we-

    21. JR

      We've created something really weird with cities. And-

    22. JB

      Weird?

    23. JR

      ... because we're so adaptable, because people are so adaptable, we've adapted to city life, and it is so unsustainable. (laughs) It's just such a-

    24. JB

      It is.

    25. JR

      It's such a weird way to live, 'cause you can't get your food that way. The food has to be shipped in every day, constantly. There's no, like... The real way to live is to live around your food. That's the way to live. The real (laughs) way to live is to live, like, real close by to your food.

    26. JB

      Yeah.

    27. JR

      When you're (laughs) ... When you... Everything is getting shipped in-

    28. JB

      Yeah.

    29. JR

      ... and it has to go up in an elevator to get to the 50th floor-

    30. JB

      (laughs)
