I'm Your Huckleberry


In this episode of WTF, Jake, Sammie, and the Don round up a wild mix of WTF moments - the kind that make you laugh, cringe, and question everything. They kick things off with some positive WTFs for a change (yes, they exist), before diving into the chaos of comedy club hecklers and Jake's eternal stuggle of ordering food with no raw onions.
Big news out of Ireland: Taco Bell has finally landed. The crew debates whether this is a culinary win or a late-arriving food crime. Then they steer into heavier territory: the murky space between fake news and the actual truth - how do you tell what's real when everything's got a spin?
Finally, they close things out with a discussion of Val Kilmer's performance as Doc Holliday inTombstone. Was it iconic, underrated, or the blueprint for swagger.? And...what does he actually say to Johnny Ringo, twice?
Fast, funny, and just unfiltered enough - this one's got range.
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.459
I got a f***ing hair in my mouth. What the f***
00:00:01.459 --> 00:00:04.599
is going on here? Well, I wonder why. I'm a f***er.
00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:07.379
Anyway. While the band's out drinking and getting
00:00:07.379 --> 00:00:10.500
strange wool, you're working. So, don't be a
00:00:10.500 --> 00:00:14.119
f***er. Yeah. It doesn't say anything dumb like,
00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:16.280
eat at the Y. No, it's literally just a half
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:19.579
sun, half moon that I had drawn that he transposed
00:00:19.579 --> 00:00:22.300
onto me. On dry sterile dressing. Not duct tape.
00:00:22.480 --> 00:00:25.679
As long as it's sterile. Jesus. There is something
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:27.359
to be said about rodent. That's all I'm going
00:00:27.359 --> 00:00:31.160
to say about that. Well, in my case, it wouldn't
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:32.780
be skinny dipping. It would be chunky dunking.
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:38.240
Better fucking do what you son of a bitch. Motherfucker,
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.280
one more time. Catholicism. Catholicism. Whatever.
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.100
I don't fucking know the word for it. Catholicism.
00:00:44.100 --> 00:00:46.810
So please. So maybe I'm not fucking crazy. Well,
00:00:46.890 --> 00:00:48.689
you're fucking crazy. Well, my throat is properly
00:00:48.689 --> 00:00:51.469
lubricated. That did not sound right. That was
00:00:51.469 --> 00:00:57.109
exactly what you said. Pause. The thought went
00:00:57.109 --> 00:00:58.609
through my head and it came out of my mouth.
00:00:58.689 --> 00:01:01.630
You need to stop talking, dude. Yeah, yeah. Not
00:01:01.630 --> 00:01:03.969
for nothing, Jake, but I'm here to help. I'm
00:01:03.969 --> 00:01:06.390
Jake Jacobs. This is Sammy. This is the Don.
00:01:06.609 --> 00:01:16.500
And you're listening to What the Fuck? Welcome
00:01:16.500 --> 00:01:19.599
to What the Fuck, the podcast where we say all
00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:22.140
the things you're thinking, but probably shouldn't.
00:01:22.219 --> 00:01:26.819
You ever had something so good, so fucking positive
00:01:26.819 --> 00:01:31.700
that you just go, what the fuck, dude? I get
00:01:31.700 --> 00:01:35.239
to do this every day, or I live here. This happened
00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:37.500
to my wife and I. We lived in Arizona. And what
00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:39.659
brought it up is it happened again two days ago.
00:01:39.739 --> 00:01:42.120
We used to wake up every morning in our backyard
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:44.260
with a swimming pool, fucking beer fridge back
00:01:44.260 --> 00:01:46.180
there, big screen TV. And we looked at the fucking
00:01:46.180 --> 00:01:49.019
mountains from our backyard. It was phenomenal.
00:01:49.060 --> 00:01:51.120
And I remember sitting back there and we were
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:54.159
like. Wow. We live here. So she met me at the
00:01:54.159 --> 00:01:56.239
shop the other day. Of course, I left my fucking
00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:58.140
fog lights on. I finally fucked it up and left
00:01:58.140 --> 00:01:59.900
it on. So I burned my battery up. I went outside.
00:01:59.939 --> 00:02:01.780
The fog light was flashing. It was trying to
00:02:01.780 --> 00:02:05.060
hang in there. Help me. Oh, shit. So I put it
00:02:05.060 --> 00:02:06.739
on the battery tender and I said, hey, can I
00:02:06.739 --> 00:02:08.500
ride your motorcycle to work? And it's Friday.
00:02:08.580 --> 00:02:10.120
She always meets me at the shop. Anyway, she
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:11.580
comes over there. We have a couple of beers,
00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:14.039
whatever we do. And we listen to music and then
00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:16.280
we ride home down the beach. A1A. Beautiful.
00:02:16.669 --> 00:02:18.969
So she shoots me this thing and she says, look
00:02:18.969 --> 00:02:20.810
at this Cajun restaurant that just opened up.
00:02:20.969 --> 00:02:23.530
The owner's from New Orleans. So let's go check
00:02:23.530 --> 00:02:25.150
it out. Anyway, she came over, listened to some
00:02:25.150 --> 00:02:27.569
great tunes. It's a blues player, dude. This
00:02:27.569 --> 00:02:30.069
guy was tearing ass. We took off. Beautiful,
00:02:30.229 --> 00:02:32.189
sunny day. Not a cloud in the sky. And we sat
00:02:32.189 --> 00:02:34.150
down in front right on the Atlantic Ocean at
00:02:34.150 --> 00:02:36.169
this Cajun restaurant. I'm eating crawfish and
00:02:36.169 --> 00:02:38.729
gumbo. And she's eating these fucking Cajun shrimp.
00:02:38.990 --> 00:02:42.150
And we're looking out at this fucking glassy
00:02:42.150 --> 00:02:44.550
ocean. Atlantic Ocean's perfect. The sun's perfect.
00:02:44.689 --> 00:02:45.949
The temperature's perfect. Everything is. We're
00:02:45.949 --> 00:02:48.860
like, what? fuck how did this happen to us you
00:02:48.860 --> 00:02:51.400
know we get to live here but the point is it
00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:53.900
can also be something very positive and for those
00:02:53.900 --> 00:02:56.129
of you in the field out there in our Awesome
00:02:56.129 --> 00:02:58.430
audience. We hold each other up. You know, this
00:02:58.430 --> 00:03:00.729
is our therapy. And positivity breeds positivity.
00:03:00.870 --> 00:03:02.849
We know that. But sometimes we just like to shit
00:03:02.849 --> 00:03:04.849
talk. And we shit talk each other worse than
00:03:04.849 --> 00:03:08.069
anything else. So we don't give a fuck. I just
00:03:08.069 --> 00:03:09.590
thought I wanted to bring that up. You know,
00:03:09.610 --> 00:03:11.849
heckling has been going on for a long time. Like
00:03:11.849 --> 00:03:13.669
comedians have been dealing with hecklers. But
00:03:13.669 --> 00:03:16.110
it's also, it's funny when it ties into it. And
00:03:16.110 --> 00:03:17.830
it's like just like a little sprinkle here and
00:03:17.830 --> 00:03:20.009
there. It does. Like to add to the comedy of
00:03:20.009 --> 00:03:21.949
it. But when you're just being annoying to be
00:03:21.949 --> 00:03:23.889
annoying, it's not funny anymore. If the performer
00:03:23.889 --> 00:03:26.680
plays off of you, right? Right. Otherwise, shut
00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.840
the fuck up. Correct. There's plenty of examples
00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:31.740
of this on YouTube, but this is just one that
00:03:31.740 --> 00:03:33.939
I saw recently where a husband and wife were
00:03:33.939 --> 00:03:36.560
there. The wife had a little bit too much to
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.280
drink and she was heckling this comedian and
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:41.840
the comedian, he was handling it like any comedian
00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:45.620
would. Well, she was getting madder by the minute,
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:47.979
the more he was handling it because she thought
00:03:47.979 --> 00:03:50.400
she was in charge. She thought she was the main
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.039
star of the fucking show. Then her husband gets
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:57.740
involved. And her husband says, move along, move
00:03:57.740 --> 00:03:59.479
on to your next joke. Tell your wife to shut
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:01.800
the fuck up. The comedian just stood there and
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:04.000
he's like, I'm not saying another fucking word
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.240
until security kicks these two motherfuckers
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:08.770
out. Because I don't fucking play that bullshit.
00:04:08.770 --> 00:04:10.169
I would have done the same thing. And they got
00:04:10.169 --> 00:04:11.650
kicked out. I would have been like, oh, you want
00:04:11.650 --> 00:04:13.409
to act like a child? Guess what? You're going
00:04:13.409 --> 00:04:14.669
to get treated like one. You are not the director
00:04:14.669 --> 00:04:17.250
of my fucking comedy show. So if you're getting
00:04:17.250 --> 00:04:19.509
mad because your wife is drunk, if she's heckling
00:04:19.509 --> 00:04:21.370
me and I'm handling my business and she's getting
00:04:21.370 --> 00:04:23.750
mad at that, that's your fucking problem. Sounds
00:04:23.750 --> 00:04:25.949
like you got some issues too, bitch. Why would
00:04:25.949 --> 00:04:29.509
you go to a comedy show and instigate something
00:04:29.509 --> 00:04:31.850
like that? I don't understand it. You went with
00:04:31.850 --> 00:04:34.089
an agenda to that. That was just un -fucking
00:04:34.089 --> 00:04:36.310
-clocked. Move on. Move on to your next joke.
00:04:36.430 --> 00:04:38.829
No, sorry. Well, I actually witnessed this one
00:04:38.829 --> 00:04:41.470
time for real. I went to Zany's Comedy Club here
00:04:41.470 --> 00:04:43.230
in Nashville, Don. Do you remember Tim Wilson?
00:04:43.430 --> 00:04:45.850
I do. So Tim Wilson was a comedian. He did a
00:04:45.850 --> 00:04:48.810
stand -up act, but he also recorded songs. But
00:04:48.810 --> 00:04:50.889
the songs were comedy songs. Oh, so kind of like
00:04:50.889 --> 00:04:53.350
Bo Burnham, like what he does. I think you and
00:04:53.350 --> 00:04:55.269
I were at that show together. We were at one
00:04:55.269 --> 00:04:57.769
of those shows together with Tim. It might have...
00:04:57.930 --> 00:05:01.290
been so because jim lightman got us tickets to
00:05:01.290 --> 00:05:03.730
see this we got like vip seats or whatever tim
00:05:03.730 --> 00:05:05.470
came out and was doing a show and he was fucking
00:05:05.470 --> 00:05:08.310
hilarious and a man started heckling him now
00:05:08.310 --> 00:05:11.970
this man was a veteran so of course you know
00:05:11.970 --> 00:05:14.470
you think a comedian is going to cut this dude
00:05:14.470 --> 00:05:16.730
some slack no he was starting to be a karen and
00:05:16.730 --> 00:05:19.189
he was starting to cross that line from between
00:05:19.189 --> 00:05:21.370
being a heckler and being a fucking pain in the
00:05:21.370 --> 00:05:24.750
ass and at one point tim was digging into this
00:05:24.750 --> 00:05:27.470
guy's ass so bad the guy was doing Heckling was
00:05:27.470 --> 00:05:29.329
getting pissed. And Tim's like, did you think
00:05:29.329 --> 00:05:30.949
because you're a veteran that I'm going to fucking
00:05:30.949 --> 00:05:33.949
take it easy on you? No, you came here to fuck
00:05:33.949 --> 00:05:36.889
with me. So game on motherfucker. Like he gave
00:05:36.889 --> 00:05:40.970
zero fucks. As you should. Nobody's immune. This
00:05:40.970 --> 00:05:42.430
is what these people do for a living, right?
00:05:42.569 --> 00:05:45.310
People have some fucking gall, man. People are
00:05:45.310 --> 00:05:48.750
experts in their own mind. A lot of times. Legend
00:05:48.750 --> 00:05:50.329
in their own mind. Yeah. Thinking they're like
00:05:50.329 --> 00:05:53.329
masters of like everything. And you're like.
00:05:53.930 --> 00:05:57.649
No. I'm a big fan of comedic intellect. If you
00:05:57.649 --> 00:06:00.009
want to hear the truth, go listen to an intelligent
00:06:00.009 --> 00:06:02.629
comedian or somebody who's speaking in terms
00:06:02.629 --> 00:06:05.670
of world facts and views. Those motherfuckers
00:06:05.670 --> 00:06:08.009
are smart and you're going to have a real hard
00:06:08.009 --> 00:06:10.889
time out negotiating them, so to speak, you know,
00:06:10.889 --> 00:06:13.110
or out funnying them. It's a free country. Freedom
00:06:13.110 --> 00:06:15.759
of speech, right? Yes, there is freedom of speech.
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:18.300
However, you go to a comedy club, you add alcohol
00:06:18.300 --> 00:06:20.139
to that freedom of speech, and you decide that
00:06:20.139 --> 00:06:23.220
you're going to inject your main character syndrome
00:06:23.220 --> 00:06:25.379
into the comedy show, and you get torn apart.
00:06:25.899 --> 00:06:27.699
Don't cry about it, because when they tear your
00:06:27.699 --> 00:06:29.399
ass apart, there's no freedom of speech at that
00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:31.439
point. Freedom of speech, our First Amendment,
00:06:31.740 --> 00:06:35.600
reminding the government that they cannot limit
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:38.300
your speech, even if that speech is a hate speech.
00:06:38.500 --> 00:06:41.060
That is still freedom of speech. And say things
00:06:41.060 --> 00:06:42.720
against the government. That's freedom of speech.
00:06:43.370 --> 00:06:45.649
What I say to Jake has nothing to do with freedom
00:06:45.649 --> 00:06:48.230
of speech. If I go to a comedy club and I'm yapping,
00:06:48.370 --> 00:06:50.290
that has nothing to do with free speech in a
00:06:50.290 --> 00:06:53.810
political sense. But freedom of speech has never
00:06:53.810 --> 00:06:57.960
exempted anyone from the resultant retort. So
00:06:57.960 --> 00:07:01.000
you fuck around. Part of the process of fucking
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:03.079
around, as we know, is finding out. You gonna
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.879
find out. So fuck around and find out, basically.
00:07:06.980 --> 00:07:08.959
I just had a real -time what the fuck happened
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:10.660
just outside the window. This is how shit happens,
00:07:10.740 --> 00:07:13.420
right? So it has been raining since early this
00:07:13.420 --> 00:07:16.259
morning. And it was raining when we started recording.
00:07:16.459 --> 00:07:19.639
And my street is a haven for people walking their
00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:21.660
dogs, walking their kids. Walking their kids.
00:07:22.569 --> 00:07:23.930
A couple minutes ago, I don't know if you saw
00:07:23.930 --> 00:07:26.029
me look over and make a face, but this dude was
00:07:26.029 --> 00:07:28.930
walking his dog with a baby. I'm assuming there
00:07:28.930 --> 00:07:30.709
was a baby in the stroller. And it was pouring
00:07:30.709 --> 00:07:33.629
down, raining. Enough to where the dog was stopping
00:07:33.629 --> 00:07:35.529
like every couple inches to shake the water off.
00:07:35.610 --> 00:07:37.009
And I'm like, you know, I'm all about walking
00:07:37.009 --> 00:07:39.569
a kid and walking a dog. But obviously when you
00:07:39.569 --> 00:07:41.990
left your house, whatever neighborhood that you're
00:07:41.990 --> 00:07:44.470
in. It was either raining or looked like it was
00:07:44.470 --> 00:07:46.470
going to rain. And now you have your kid and
00:07:46.470 --> 00:07:48.089
your dog in that pouring rain. They're going
00:07:48.089 --> 00:07:50.870
to be soaked. I at least thought, what the fuck?
00:07:50.889 --> 00:07:53.810
Hopefully it's not like a legit infant. I mean,
00:07:53.850 --> 00:07:56.529
I don't know. It was a stroller, so that's all
00:07:56.529 --> 00:07:59.470
I know. Real time, what the fuck happens. Listen,
00:08:00.370 --> 00:08:04.110
that's lit, Jake. No cap. Lit? I mean, maybe
00:08:04.110 --> 00:08:07.879
that was that dude's flex. I'll just wait until
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:09.839
you start getting the Gen Alphas that come in
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:12.560
saying, like, that's so Ohio. What the skibbity?
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:14.939
Yeah, that's fucking low -key. I don't know what
00:08:14.939 --> 00:08:17.040
half that shit means. That's low -key slinging
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:20.300
shade, baby. So, Jake, tell us about when you
00:08:20.300 --> 00:08:21.560
walk into a restaurant and you order something
00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:23.500
with no goddamn onions. Because you can't just
00:08:23.500 --> 00:08:25.819
pull an onion off without onion residual being
00:08:25.819 --> 00:08:27.439
on there. It's just too fucking late. You've
00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:28.759
got to start over. You know, I don't think I've
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:32.559
ever talked about this. I fucking hate. Raw onions.
00:08:32.820 --> 00:08:35.080
Raw onions, right. I can't eat them. Do you make
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:37.879
an exception for in salsa? No, I can't even do
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:41.039
salsa. So it's no pico de gallo onions, none
00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:42.840
of that. Yeah, because pico, they use those fucking
00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:44.500
red onions too. They're strong as fuck. Yeah,
00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:48.100
they are. But raw onions, I will gag and I will
00:08:48.100 --> 00:08:50.179
barf. Those two things will happen sequentially,
00:08:50.299 --> 00:08:54.529
okay? Damn, Jake. However. I can eat them if
00:08:54.529 --> 00:08:56.330
they're cooked. So you'll eat them slimy but
00:08:56.330 --> 00:09:00.409
not raw. Is it a texture thing? No, no. There's
00:09:00.409 --> 00:09:02.370
a different texture between a raw onion and a
00:09:02.370 --> 00:09:04.250
cooked onion, right? It's the acidity in a raw
00:09:04.250 --> 00:09:07.070
onion that will just make me sick. I can't do
00:09:07.070 --> 00:09:09.539
it. Now, I can eat a raw radish, which is a very
00:09:09.539 --> 00:09:12.259
close relative to the onion, super close. I'm
00:09:12.259 --> 00:09:13.980
fine with radishes, but some people are going
00:09:13.980 --> 00:09:15.820
to be like, well, why don't you just do a Vidalia
00:09:15.820 --> 00:09:17.820
onion? It's the same thing. Something in the
00:09:17.820 --> 00:09:20.100
genetic makeup of onions in general that they
00:09:20.100 --> 00:09:22.659
share that you can't have. So if I go to a burger
00:09:22.659 --> 00:09:24.740
place, Don and I's favorite burger place is Burger
00:09:24.740 --> 00:09:26.740
King. If you order a Whopper or a Double Whopper,
00:09:26.820 --> 00:09:29.320
and if you don't tell them anything to change
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:32.000
on it, it will come with onions, lettuce, tomatoes,
00:09:32.220 --> 00:09:33.700
mayo, you know, the whole nine yards, right?
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:36.200
Onions just come automatically unless you tell
00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:37.950
them don't. put onions on it. Right. Hey, let
00:09:37.950 --> 00:09:40.669
me get a Whopper with no onions. Nine times out
00:09:40.669 --> 00:09:42.409
of 10, they're not making that sandwich special
00:09:42.409 --> 00:09:43.929
for me. They're taking one that's already been
00:09:43.929 --> 00:09:45.570
wrapped up. They're going to take the top bun
00:09:45.570 --> 00:09:46.909
off and they're going to pick the onions off.
00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:49.139
That's what they do. You can argue with me all
00:09:49.139 --> 00:09:51.220
day long, but that's what they do. I've had it
00:09:51.220 --> 00:09:54.019
happen to me enough times where I order no onions,
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.379
and the first bite, I can still taste the onion
00:09:56.379 --> 00:09:58.679
because that onion leaves a flavor trail behind
00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:01.419
that is unmistakable, and I will gag, and I will
00:10:01.419 --> 00:10:02.820
take the sandwich back, and I'll be like, make
00:10:02.820 --> 00:10:05.100
me another goddamn sandwich. This time, don't
00:10:05.100 --> 00:10:06.899
pick the onions off. Just put it together with
00:10:06.899 --> 00:10:09.620
no fucking onions. Oh, yeah. I'm getting animated
00:10:09.620 --> 00:10:14.379
now because how fucking hard is it to just make
00:10:14.379 --> 00:10:18.000
a sandwich, assemble it, Without onions. And
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.580
then the part two to that is a lot of these places
00:10:20.580 --> 00:10:22.899
have these vegetables that they use for their
00:10:22.899 --> 00:10:25.779
sandwiches, Subway, burger places, okay? They
00:10:25.779 --> 00:10:28.779
will use the same goddamn knife to cut the onion
00:10:28.779 --> 00:10:31.340
as they will the tomatoes or the pickles or whatever
00:10:31.340 --> 00:10:33.600
else they're using, right? Even if they assemble
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:36.700
it without onions, because they sliced that tomato
00:10:36.700 --> 00:10:38.460
with the same knife that they sliced the onion,
00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:40.700
guess what I'm tasting? Onion. Now, you can call
00:10:40.700 --> 00:10:43.159
that nitpicky as fuck, but I call it... I don't
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:44.840
want to taste fucking onion. That's a pretty
00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:46.919
powerful. Here's the thing, though. It's not
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:50.399
for anyone to say what you like and don't like.
00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:53.620
None of us like to get over dramatized with anything,
00:10:53.740 --> 00:10:55.960
but sometimes it's necessary. Yeah. Right. When
00:10:55.960 --> 00:10:57.700
you walk in there and say, listen, guys, it's
00:10:57.700 --> 00:10:59.639
kind of like peanut allergies. If you say you
00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:01.980
have a peanut allergy, when you buy a plane ticket,
00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:05.000
they remove peanuts for everybody. I mean, there
00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:08.059
is not a peanut on the plane. So my recommendation
00:11:08.059 --> 00:11:11.039
is this because people get what they give. If
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:14.019
you go in there and you are like, listen, guys,
00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:16.259
I love you guys. You're the best Burger King
00:11:16.259 --> 00:11:18.840
on the planet. Please do me a favor because I
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:24.259
am deathly allergic to the tryptophanic lecithin
00:11:24.259 --> 00:11:30.299
vitamin DL 12 .29er within Vidalia onions, which
00:11:30.299 --> 00:11:31.700
is what you use here at Burger King. I don't
00:11:31.700 --> 00:11:33.700
know if you knew that or not. Please make me
00:11:33.700 --> 00:11:36.220
a hamburger that has not touched onions. The
00:11:36.220 --> 00:11:37.820
knife has not touched onions because it will
00:11:37.820 --> 00:11:39.419
fucking kill me dead. Right in your restaurant.
00:11:39.820 --> 00:11:41.620
Unless you want to call the meat wagon over here
00:11:41.620 --> 00:11:43.639
to pick Jake up. So I have kind of a tie -in
00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:45.960
to a guest that we had that the episode didn't
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.320
air because JJ's microphone was all kinds of
00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:49.720
fucked up and there was all kinds of noise happening.
00:11:49.860 --> 00:11:52.320
But when I was stationed in Texas, JJ and I and
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:54.659
a couple of friends went to Corpus Christi one
00:11:54.659 --> 00:11:56.539
night. We were out partying. And of course, you
00:11:56.539 --> 00:11:57.960
know, at two o 'clock in the morning, you get
00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:01.269
hungry. You want a burger. Or Taco Bell. So we
00:12:01.269 --> 00:12:03.730
went to, we went to Whataburger and I ordered
00:12:03.730 --> 00:12:06.230
a double and I said, no onions. So we all get
00:12:06.230 --> 00:12:08.470
our food and we drove back to the club that we
00:12:08.470 --> 00:12:09.850
were at because the club was still open. It was
00:12:09.850 --> 00:12:11.590
one of those after hours clubs. And I bit into
00:12:11.590 --> 00:12:13.309
this fucking burger. First fucking bite. Like
00:12:13.309 --> 00:12:14.610
they didn't even try to take the onions off.
00:12:14.649 --> 00:12:15.850
They were still on. It was like, I think there
00:12:15.850 --> 00:12:20.509
was fucking onions on there. Ew. They probably
00:12:20.509 --> 00:12:22.450
heard me say no onions and they're probably like,
00:12:22.529 --> 00:12:24.350
fuck this guy. Right? So I bit into it and I
00:12:24.350 --> 00:12:26.289
literally just fucking yacked. Like I leaned
00:12:26.289 --> 00:12:28.529
out the fucking door and fucking yacked. JJ was
00:12:28.529 --> 00:12:31.990
so fucking pissed. JJ said, Jake, get back in
00:12:31.990 --> 00:12:34.070
the fucking car. She got behind the wheel and
00:12:34.070 --> 00:12:36.490
drove back to the fucking Whataburger. And they're
00:12:36.490 --> 00:12:39.090
open like 24 -7. She walked in there and she
00:12:39.090 --> 00:12:40.990
fucking threw it at him. She's like, what part
00:12:40.990 --> 00:12:43.090
of fucking no onions did she fucking lit them
00:12:43.090 --> 00:12:45.090
up? If JJ had gone any further with it, they
00:12:45.090 --> 00:12:46.309
probably would have called the cops on us. I
00:12:46.309 --> 00:12:48.169
mean, they gave me another burger and it didn't
00:12:48.169 --> 00:12:49.570
have onions on it, but it probably had fucking
00:12:49.570 --> 00:12:52.009
spit and fucking pubes. Accidentally hit the
00:12:52.009 --> 00:12:54.269
floor a couple times before it made it onto the
00:12:54.269 --> 00:12:56.750
bun. Yeah, when we get JJ back, I want to ask
00:12:56.750 --> 00:12:58.049
her if she remembers that. But yeah, she was
00:12:58.049 --> 00:13:01.159
hot. Ireland got a... taco bell wait they haven't
00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:03.740
had one no they never had taco bell in ireland
00:13:03.740 --> 00:13:06.500
and they are finally getting taco bell over there
00:13:06.500 --> 00:13:09.779
and there are a lot of people both civilian and
00:13:09.779 --> 00:13:12.100
people that work for like the cities that are
00:13:12.100 --> 00:13:15.019
like i don't think our old sewage system infrastructure
00:13:15.019 --> 00:13:20.320
truly is going to be able to handle what is the
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.519
quote was uh and it said expert which makes me
00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:26.110
think expert is like Joe Schmo on the street
00:13:26.110 --> 00:13:28.409
was saying. He's like, you think our old sewage
00:13:28.409 --> 00:13:31.509
pipes can take the addition of Taco Bell outlets,
00:13:31.629 --> 00:13:34.370
dozens of these diarrhea cannons constantly firing
00:13:34.370 --> 00:13:37.549
off? Lunacy. Okay. Wow. That was the quote I
00:13:37.549 --> 00:13:39.350
got. I was like, you know, they've never had
00:13:39.350 --> 00:13:41.149
a Taco Bell. So they're like, they don't think
00:13:41.149 --> 00:13:45.090
they can handle it. I'm just trying to figure
00:13:45.090 --> 00:13:47.409
out what a Burrito Supreme is going to taste
00:13:47.409 --> 00:13:50.049
like after about four or five Guinnesses. Don't
00:13:50.049 --> 00:13:50.909
tell me. Probably delightful. Because I got a
00:13:50.909 --> 00:13:52.330
Taco Bell within walking distance from where
00:13:52.330 --> 00:13:54.990
I live. I know. I've got one like within a mile
00:13:54.990 --> 00:13:57.009
and a half of my house. And my wife's a big fucking
00:13:57.009 --> 00:13:59.070
fan of Guinness. So we'll go over there. We'll
00:13:59.070 --> 00:14:00.610
test that theory. Well, at least he didn't say
00:14:00.610 --> 00:14:05.149
bruh. You did say bro. Bruh. Bruh. Bruh. So that
00:14:05.149 --> 00:14:07.490
being said, I say we road trip. We get us a flight
00:14:07.490 --> 00:14:10.629
together and we go eat Taco Bell. I need to try
00:14:10.629 --> 00:14:14.029
the Ireland Taco Bell. Irish tacos. There's a
00:14:14.029 --> 00:14:15.970
song in there somewhere, Jake. There has to be.
00:14:16.009 --> 00:14:18.570
I will say in France, just like you heard in
00:14:18.570 --> 00:14:20.610
the movie Pulp Fiction, where John Travolta is
00:14:20.610 --> 00:14:22.110
talking about you can get a beer at a Burger
00:14:22.110 --> 00:14:24.029
King. Yes, that is true. Pulp Fiction, baby.
00:14:24.210 --> 00:14:26.470
The drinking age is much younger, too. I went
00:14:26.470 --> 00:14:28.929
to a Burger King in Dubai, which is a magnificent
00:14:28.929 --> 00:14:31.330
city. Oh, my God. Oh, yes, it is. And this Burger
00:14:31.330 --> 00:14:33.450
King was inside of a mall, and this mall was
00:14:33.450 --> 00:14:35.929
like three times the size of the Mall of America.
00:14:36.029 --> 00:14:38.190
It was just amazing. I went in there, and it
00:14:38.190 --> 00:14:40.470
had been a couple months since I had had a Whopper.
00:14:40.549 --> 00:14:42.070
So I went in there, and I'm like, I just want
00:14:42.070 --> 00:14:44.340
to. Double Whopper with cheese, no onions. I
00:14:44.340 --> 00:14:46.259
got that Whopper and it was the best fucking
00:14:46.259 --> 00:14:48.340
Whopper I ever had in my fucking life. And they
00:14:48.340 --> 00:14:50.259
didn't put any onions on it and it tasted good.
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:51.940
It tasted like a Whopper from the States. It
00:14:51.940 --> 00:14:53.700
didn't taste any fucking different. The reason
00:14:53.700 --> 00:14:56.240
I like Burger King here is because it's beef,
00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:59.120
never frozen, blah, blah, blah. A couple of years
00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:03.019
ago, I used to be not political, but anti against
00:15:03.019 --> 00:15:05.820
a certain party or a certain someone. And I used
00:15:05.820 --> 00:15:07.600
to get really stressed out about that shit because
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.240
I was allowing something to affect me that...
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:14.039
I had no control of anything that I would say
00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:16.120
or any argument that I would have with anybody.
00:15:16.340 --> 00:15:18.360
It was just a waste of my time and breath and
00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:20.700
energy to the point where I actually just had
00:15:20.700 --> 00:15:23.279
to let it go. And I literally just stopped watching
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:25.759
the news. There is such a thing called fake news.
00:15:26.019 --> 00:15:28.259
However, your interpretation of that could be
00:15:28.259 --> 00:15:30.960
different from mine. Now, who's to say? What
00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:33.960
one person reports as news, another person will
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:35.779
take that and interpret it. And because they've
00:15:35.779 --> 00:15:37.340
heard three other different versions of it, they're
00:15:37.340 --> 00:15:39.039
going to turn that into their truth. And then
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:40.720
they're going to stand on that mountain and die
00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:43.320
on it. So here's where I have a problem with
00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:46.779
this. How do you unblur that line? If something
00:15:46.779 --> 00:15:49.320
newsworthy happens, even if there's video of
00:15:49.320 --> 00:15:50.639
it, now you can say, oh, well, that's just a
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:55.039
deep AI fake. So how do you know now if something
00:15:55.039 --> 00:15:57.629
is presented to you? as news or something is
00:15:57.629 --> 00:16:00.789
presented to you as fact and have citations behind
00:16:00.789 --> 00:16:02.669
it or have things behind it that could potentially
00:16:02.669 --> 00:16:05.669
prove the validity of it. But yet all it takes
00:16:05.669 --> 00:16:08.330
is one fucking keyboard warrior to say, that's
00:16:08.330 --> 00:16:10.169
fake news. Well, just because I said it's fake
00:16:10.169 --> 00:16:13.149
news, that makes it fake news. I mean, what kind
00:16:13.149 --> 00:16:15.669
of reality are we living in now to where we don't
00:16:15.669 --> 00:16:17.730
know what's fake and what's not anymore? Who
00:16:17.730 --> 00:16:21.029
makes that or who is or what is going to draw
00:16:21.029 --> 00:16:23.250
that hard line that says, okay, this is fucking
00:16:23.250 --> 00:16:25.250
fact right here. There's no disputing this. This
00:16:25.250 --> 00:16:27.149
is what happened. You can't even do that these
00:16:27.149 --> 00:16:29.289
days. Here's the fun part right here, Jake, and
00:16:29.289 --> 00:16:31.129
the way I started looking at it, because you
00:16:31.129 --> 00:16:33.190
and I have been friends for a lot of years, and
00:16:33.190 --> 00:16:35.710
we went through that together at polar opposites
00:16:35.710 --> 00:16:39.490
of the political spectrum that we just disagreed.
00:16:39.769 --> 00:16:42.909
And the news stopped being the news, folks, in
00:16:42.909 --> 00:16:46.409
my opinion, and I'm old, when Walter Cronkite
00:16:46.409 --> 00:16:48.669
died or when he retired, right? That was the
00:16:48.669 --> 00:16:52.669
news. At the end of the day, folks reported what
00:16:52.669 --> 00:16:55.190
happened. Here's what happened. People like to
00:16:55.190 --> 00:16:57.529
make up things and call them facts a lot of times.
00:16:57.690 --> 00:16:59.470
It's one of the things that I see on a daily
00:16:59.470 --> 00:17:03.679
basis. The people who know the least. shit talk
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:05.799
the most everything's entertainment television
00:17:05.799 --> 00:17:09.440
the things on tiktok youtube all these different
00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:11.519
things i go down rabbit holes like everybody
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:14.579
else and i try to learn things about the things
00:17:14.579 --> 00:17:17.019
that affect me and you pick and choose some of
00:17:17.019 --> 00:17:20.039
those things and then you find ways to you find
00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:22.460
the facts in there somehow how do you do that
00:17:22.460 --> 00:17:24.759
like i know what does and does not spike my blood
00:17:24.759 --> 00:17:27.799
sugar I don't give a shit what you say or the
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:29.539
scientists or anything else. This is what works
00:17:29.539 --> 00:17:32.440
for Don, right? That becomes my fact. You can
00:17:32.440 --> 00:17:34.519
have people get real hardcore. And I know that
00:17:34.519 --> 00:17:36.660
we've been through this together before and even
00:17:36.660 --> 00:17:38.740
in opposition, but remain friends because we're
00:17:38.740 --> 00:17:41.079
smarter than the average bear, I think. Is people
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:43.140
will say, you can say, listen, the sky is blue.
00:17:43.319 --> 00:17:45.839
Well, we can agree to disagree. No, no, we really
00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.579
can't. Okay. We're not going to agree to disagree.
00:17:48.700 --> 00:17:50.819
It is fucking blue and you are wrong. There are
00:17:50.819 --> 00:17:53.359
those. Now what blue it is, that's your truth.
00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:56.170
But the fact that it's blue. is blue it's blue
00:17:56.170 --> 00:17:58.470
it's blue just like this badass wall behind me
00:17:58.470 --> 00:18:01.829
is yellow well it's gold okay fair fair enough
00:18:01.829 --> 00:18:04.369
man to you your truth is that it's gold in any
00:18:04.369 --> 00:18:07.420
case i stopped worrying about that My job is
00:18:07.420 --> 00:18:10.359
to do the very best I can with what I have. So
00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:12.640
I stopped worrying about things. Consequently,
00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:15.339
my anxiety went down. My blood pressure went
00:18:15.339 --> 00:18:17.000
down. All these different things. You know, we're
00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:18.660
all in this together. And it doesn't matter what
00:18:18.660 --> 00:18:20.279
we like to title ourselves or call ourselves.
00:18:20.740 --> 00:18:22.460
Everybody's got an opinion. And the beauty part,
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:25.180
where this all ties together, is that you and
00:18:25.180 --> 00:18:27.039
I, the three of us are veterans. And sometimes
00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:28.180
we can look at each other and go, well, that
00:18:28.180 --> 00:18:31.140
was stupid. But that's my opinion. And it in
00:18:31.140 --> 00:18:33.059
no way reflects fact. Well, it's the same with
00:18:33.059 --> 00:18:35.140
the fucking news. I have always been of the opinion.
00:18:35.589 --> 00:18:38.630
which does not make it fact that as a professional
00:18:38.630 --> 00:18:41.549
news agency, if that's what you want to call
00:18:41.549 --> 00:18:44.250
yourself, there should be some liability for
00:18:44.250 --> 00:18:47.849
falsifying information to up the entertainment
00:18:47.849 --> 00:18:50.569
value and to gather more viewers. But like anything
00:18:50.569 --> 00:18:53.269
else, there are a lot of very smart people out
00:18:53.269 --> 00:18:55.849
there all over the world who will find a loophole
00:18:55.849 --> 00:18:57.970
in the law. And that's why laws are written with
00:18:57.970 --> 00:19:00.569
all these. And you can't do this, this, this,
00:19:00.710 --> 00:19:01.849
this, this, this. And you're like, well, that's
00:19:01.849 --> 00:19:04.200
common sense. No, sir. It's not, you have to
00:19:04.200 --> 00:19:06.140
explain it because then the next thing will happen.
00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:08.400
I was like, well, it wasn't written down. I never,
00:19:08.440 --> 00:19:10.299
I didn't read that anywhere. That's my spiel
00:19:10.299 --> 00:19:12.720
on that. And it sucks, but it is what it is.
00:19:12.759 --> 00:19:14.279
So I just kind of laugh it off these days. Somebody
00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:15.420
told me this and it might've been, I thought
00:19:15.420 --> 00:19:18.000
it was you, Jake, unless you give a fuck, the
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:19.720
happier you're going to be. That probably was
00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:21.859
me. It sounds like something I would say. So
00:19:21.859 --> 00:19:24.980
my all time favorite movie is a Western tombstone.
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:28.460
Yes, it is. Classic Western. Val Kilmer, rest
00:19:28.460 --> 00:19:30.799
in peace, did the best Doc Holliday that has
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:34.299
ever been captured on film. And he has a catchphrase
00:19:34.299 --> 00:19:37.119
in that movie that he says twice. He says, I'm
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:39.880
your Huckleberry. Not once has any version of
00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:42.259
that film ever come out where he says, I'll be
00:19:42.259 --> 00:19:44.990
your Huckleberry. but yet people will still quote
00:19:44.990 --> 00:19:47.890
that movie and say, oh, Doc Holliday in Tombstone,
00:19:47.930 --> 00:19:49.910
I'll be your huckleberry. Motherfucker, it's
00:19:49.910 --> 00:19:52.690
I'm your huckleberry, okay? Are you sure this
00:19:52.690 --> 00:19:54.549
isn't the Mandela Effect? No, I've seen that
00:19:54.549 --> 00:19:57.069
movie enough fucking times, I know. Say it right,
00:19:57.170 --> 00:19:59.650
bitch. Here's a fun thing, too, and Jake, I know
00:19:59.650 --> 00:20:01.819
you've used that term for years, in fact. Your
00:20:01.819 --> 00:20:04.640
studio, your business is named I'm Your Huckleberry
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:07.019
Studios. For those of you who don't know, that's
00:20:07.019 --> 00:20:09.940
what we're recording. Val Kilmer said, I'm your
00:20:09.940 --> 00:20:12.519
Huckleberry in the movie. He admitted that during
00:20:12.519 --> 00:20:16.420
an interview. But the true way that that should
00:20:16.420 --> 00:20:19.279
have been stated is I'm your Hucklebearer, which
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:22.660
are the folks we would call pallbearers, right?
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:25.950
But he decided to say Huckleberry. On purpose.
00:20:26.009 --> 00:20:29.049
And clearly it stuck. But yeah, I'm your huckleberry.
00:20:29.329 --> 00:20:31.990
Regardless, huckleberry, huckleberry. He never
00:20:31.990 --> 00:20:34.650
said, I'll be your. He said, I'm your.
