Do you have a new phone? What year is that one? This one is like one of the
rehabbed ones
Those are still good though like which number which number is it 13 I think oh
those are still good
I have an 11 that's still good. Yeah, I keep an 11 for one of my numbers
Okay, one of my bullshit numbers
For what?
There's certain people you can't give the real number to. Oh, yeah
Why would you even give them a number though? You're like a straightforward guy
I guess you have to sometimes sometimes you have to communicate with people
But you want a phone that you just stick in a fucking drawer somewhere. Yeah,
and check like once a month if that
Yeah
It just gets crazy where so many relationships become like completely transactional
and
You know like every time someone texts you they want something and it's just so
frustrating
I can see it even being your friend. I can see it from a fucking mile away now
People will be like hey bridge. I'm like I'm not introducing you Joe leave me
alone
All my friends have a story. Oh, it was a business idea. No, I mean I'm gonna
help them sell skateboards if someone's like hey, let's get coffee
It's been too long. I'm like nope
Not doing it
hilarious I had a friend from high school reach out randomly. Hey bridge. Nope.
I
See it. I see it from a mile away now. I'm like, what is it like to be you?
It's odd cuz I'm just like, you know, like an outer
Asteroid in the in the universe, but imagine being like the planet itself
I've managed to stay myself, which is shocking
Yeah, you have but I have really good friends, you know, my friends have really
good friends
And I and I think you have friends who take the piss out of you
Yes, and I've had they've been my friends for 20 30 years. Yeah, like Joey and
I've been friends for almost 30 years
Yeah
27 years or 28 years. It might be 30 now. Fuck. I might have met him in 94
It helps to have like I was asking my husband right before I left about a tweet
I was gonna send out and he's like meh and I was
Like is this too much and then I was like fine. He's like, oh, what do you just
want me to like clap for you?
I was like, I'm so glad you're my husband. Yeah, you definitely need someone
who's not impressed
No, not impressed at all
At the very least maybe not impressed but also not bullshitting you. No, we
will not bullshit. He won't bullshit anyone
He like suffers no fools at all. That's great that that ensures that you won't
live in a world of compromise
No, you know some people are okay
They just fuck up every now and then you have to tell them. Hey man, don't lie
to me. Yeah, you don't have to lie
Yeah, don't do that. Yeah, you know, but it's just this weird thing that
People fall back on
Bullshitting and lying these fall back on it and they don't even know they're
doing it to themselves
You you you will have less respect for yourself. You'll yeah, it's not worth it.
Nah
It's not worth it cuz you you you just create these things that aren't real in
your life these relationships these friendships that are based on reality
You know if a person can't handle the truth you get you can't tell me that
sucks
Yeah, you got to work on this you got to change this you got to do that. Yeah,
if you don't do that
It's not gonna get any better
I thought it was the best book ever written. No
No, I mean I've had all my favorite editors have been so hard on me
I want I want honest criticism. Yeah, you know like you write right jokes for
your haters
You know write jokes to turn them over like that was pretty good one fucker
You know you
Stan hope told me once that he writes jokes like a defense attorney. Oh
interesting. Yeah, he examines his jokes as if he was like prosecuting them
It's great. That's very money. It's it's very similar to mine. What I said. I
write jokes for haters
Yeah, you got to look at it like a hater sometimes. Yeah, cuz you can get too
in love with your stuff
Yeah, it's too easy. It's too easy to get in love with your stuff
The audience will tell you too. Well, that's the difference between comedy and
other things. Yeah, it's hard if you're just a journalist
You know just writing you you you kind of believe your opinion makes sense and
all of them are doing the same thing
Like almost all of them except for the independent ones. They're almost all
doing the same things they're saying
They're they're expressing their thoughts to a very particular group of people
and they're also
Lying about another group of people almost always
Yeah, like the right does it and the left does it. Yeah, it's all fan fiction.
Yeah, it is fan fiction
Like the right does it with liberals because liberals aren't Antifa
Liberals aren't the people that are lighting Starbucks on fire and shooting
cops. That's not liberals
That is just a thing that has existed in a team. We allow anyone to join a team
So if you have something where anybody can join the team, right, which is
basically what being a liberal or a conservative is
Anyone can join the team. They don't like the sluts, Joe
Everybody loves sluts. They just don't. Not the conservatives
Not publicly. Yeah, exactly
Listen I know a lot of those ladies fucking party hard, but they do it for that.
I know they do it for Jesus
I'm just saying publicly. Yeah, yeah, yeah the sluts out of our party. It's the
same thing though, man
I'm telling you it's the same thing if you are an Antifa or if you are patriot
front
You're you I could have got either one of you fucks. Yeah, it's got to get them
early get them when they're vulnerable
Talk them into a very specific
Ideology, you know, who's your problem the Jews
And actually, you know, they think the Jews really all their problems
And they kind of meet on that
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they get together with the Jews with now, which is odd, right,
because it's Palestine and Gaza
It's that's where it's kind of come around like that moment in time. It's like
everybody's mad at the Jews now
It's like fuck
I mean, that's the ancient conspiracy theory of all conspiracy theories. Yeah,
it's the Jews fault
This is like one of the oldest conspiracy theories of mankind
Well, the Jews make it real tough to join
They're one of the more interesting religions. Like if you want to join it, my
uncle
Joined my uncle converted to Judaism. He married a nice Jewish lady. I want to
convert go for it. I kind of do it's a lot of what's up
Let's see what new information you get. You'll tell me, right?
You'll get the new memos you get up part of that proton mail list
But he had to work really hard at it and I met a lady who was converting to I
was doing a show once for sci-fi
Where I just talked I was like trying to get people to can maybe it was from
the man show
I don't remember what it was for were you on the man show? Yeah
Yeah, I was in the man show. I was in the second generation
Right, okay. I was in the first I was an extra in the first
But what we were trying to do is I was trying to get people to convert me
So I'd go to all these different religious groups and say like
Well, I want to know who's get the best deal
Like what sounds the best and everyone got me it made it opened my eyes
It did because I got to see what I believe are genuinely kind people who want a
good result for human
human beings they really do and they a lot of them really genuinely believe
that
Their structure their ideology and way of thinking is really the path to
happiness
Which is ultimately like the path to God, you know without you know breaking it
down to
Cult-like thinking and how people get absorbed in ideas that are untenable that
just don't make any sense
They're completely ridiculous, but they like scientifically minded people
attach themselves to that if it's a part of their religion
Without that what everybody wants is something good
And they think that the way to have something good for the people that join is
to like sort of demonize the people that aren't joining or
Demonize the other ones and it's a tribal thing
But it's just like all these little patterns of human thinking that we have
people have it with
Everything you see with cell phones, you know, you see with Android people
versus iPhone people
It's just a normal human
tribal characteristic that's embedded in our DNA that if we don't address and
recognize we're not going to overcome the hurdle because we're going to
pretending as if it doesn't exist and as if your side is right and the other
side is wrong and
And not just looking at it like oh, we're stuck in a blue versus red white
versus black one versus zero
It's just a tribal thing that exists in the way we operate and we have to be
aware of it and not get mad at people for falling into it
Because it's normal to fall into it. It's literally a pattern that's embedded
in the code that makes you a human being
It's how we created cities. Yeah, it's why we're here today
It's interesting because I've been reading that rereading my favorite book
trickster makes this world and how the tricks that's up
Who wrote that Lewis Hyde? It's all about trick. Oh, it's so good, but it's
It saved me at a point because I didn't really I had a hard time and I think
this is
This is where like Jordan Peterson is so good talking about archetypes knowing
kind of the archetypes and I didn't really know my role
And I read this book and I was like, oh
Tell me the name of it again. I'm gonna get it trickster makes this world trickster
makes this world. It's so brilliant, but there sounds cool
Actually, one of the quotes that I put in your card is from that book and it's
my favorite one of my favorite quotes ever
It's all about he who dupes others and who is also duped himself. He's creator
nor destroyer
It's like this is the people I've noticed who have stayed the most I mean sane
is a term. I'm using loosely
The people I've noticed it's like comedians people who are kind of like
Tricksters they've managed to kind of ride the waves of the past eight years
because I think they're not
Too attached and in this book he talks about how it was there is all this trick
trickster mythology like coyote and Hermes
And then it got kind of turned into the devil and it became evil
Versus good and when that happened when when the loss of that mythology in the
culture
Happened it became much more black and white and like this kind of you know
dualistic like you said tribal thinking without all of
This gray area that I do feel like I look around like malice and all the people
there
most of the people who I've been hanging out with and know
Have been kind of having a blast for like eight years
Everyone first I watched everyone on the left lose their mind then people on
the right lots
It was like I was having the same conversations for four years with the left
Then I was like all the people on the right and it's gonna be fine. It's not
the end of the world and then here
We are again
Here we are here we are again and the only people that make any sense to the
ones who aren't on either team
The the people that say things like you know as a conservative
You're a fucking human being don't say it that way. I don't think it that way
There's a there's a bunch of things that you believed
But don't put yourself in a fucking group because there's probably a bunch of
stuff that the left agrees with that you would probably agree with too
Yeah, and you can't be you can't be resistant to those ideas simply because
they're attached to people
You've decided are the enemy because you might they might be right. Yeah might
be right about welfare, right?
They might be right about have hate maybe kids shouldn't ever be fucking
starving
You know as a group as a group of humans that live together on this one little
patch of dirt called North America
Maybe we should agree that since we have this gigantic amount of money that no
kids should be hungry. Yeah, how about that?
And then since we got that done. Hey, how about regular people? How
