The Adam Friedland Show Podcast - Gavin Matts - Episode 48

welcome to the adam friedland show and ramadan mubarak to everyone celebrating
it's the adam
friedland show podcast with special guest today gavin matt gavin matt from canada
yeah welcome
how do we sound pete good you sound good good now the viewers at home won't
notice but we have the
air conditioner blasting yes because it is it's now it's a warm day and they
still have the fucking
radiators cranked yes it's a classic nyc problem the building has not turned
off the heat for winter
and it's not winter temperatures outside so it's literally but i'm telling you
i like a nightmare
you gotta figure out a big problem is there's not enough distinction between
the podcast and the
talk show yeah and i think what we need to do is bring back the mics this feels
good i i
i think if you're wondering like oh is this the show or the podcast if you you
can tell by the
cables uh-huh i think that's a good distinction yeah yeah we have i kind of
wanted to build like
a center console uh-huh like the kind that you'd see in like a conversion van
uh-huh with like cup
holders and a little screen in it i like that you know and then and then maybe
change the stage so
it's also like the inside of a conversion i like cup holders yeah i like when
the cups don't fit in
them maybe we could just get a van and back it have the this sounds like a
perfect project for you which
is disassembling and reassembling a van in the studio having half of the back
of a van
as the podcast stage yeah that way there's a clear visual distinction between
the two getting a car you
you need a car in here that's big tech yeah these were all things that i had
planned initially but
then but then uh what do you think got in the way well nothing got in the way
necessarily but i've we've
until very recently i had to learn i've never been a business owner before it
was just you know we
our our old podcast was successful by chance and i didn't know that you you
shouldn't hire people
because they're like they they're your friend not necessarily even your friend
but just i'm like
this guy's fucking insane dude yeah yeah that's a bad because it's funny yeah i
mean a lot of small
businesses they have um bad employees no the problem is is if i think that if
you do something like
creative you want the most creative people to get the best product but then
creative people often are
lacking in like intelligence not intelligence but like uh technical consensus
is what i would say
okay is they creative people they figure out they figure out how to get what
they want out of
something creatively and then there's other people on the other end of the
spectrum that are very
technically minded because they go to school for it but they don't they're not
necessarily creative
they're not creative they'll never make anything good they're nerds yeah they're
nerds and they need to
be told what to do right exactly anybody anybody that would come in here and be
like well
there's the 180 degree rule when you're shooting you're gone you're done yeah
yeah shut up you think
any of these migrants are good at tech they're probably they're probably yeah
they're all there
they're in like a 900 person mariachi band i would like to see is there a guinness
world record for
largest mariachi band we got it we gotta check that out yeah that's the other
thing you gotta build it
the podcast has to have a theme right and that was the thing that we struggled
with that was why i
think come town kind of failed because we never had a theme it was a show about
nothing yeah when we
started everyone told us you have to have a theme i thought the podcast failed
because of crowd work
clips no why that's we weren't doing that no but that's maybe what separated
the group i don't know what
he's talking about oh sorry he's saying stav did too many crowd work clips oh
my god why would you say
that dude i don't know i don't really know anything about the data he's a
friend of ours i mean it's
it's been enough time we can say it is stav's like staunchly pro israel yeah
and it was like there
was a lot of oh there was a lot of behind the scenes conversations where we'd
say stop it's murder it's
a genocide yeah he would say and this is i actually don't know his real voice i'd
be like they've been
there for three thousand years jewish friends are scared they've been there
would you hide me and we
said well first of all you're not jewish we don't have the technology i love i
like you would need
something that could bend the fabric of space no we're talking right now i like
stuff but also i heard
he's gonna uh where gaza is that's actually going to be called stavi's world
yeah he wants us to open the
theme park yeah um yeah where like the refugee camps are yeah it would be great
if they could turn gaza
into stav's new podcast studio yeah and it's also crazy i went to greece last
summer and i googled
uh the adl does an anti-semitism index for every country 68 percent in greece
so it's strange that he's
so staunchly pro-israel when he comes from such a a you know anti-semitic uh
culture you know right
it's very confusing it's kind of a curveball but you know that's why it keeps
us on our on our toes
i love it i love israel i love it you know that you do like saber metrics for
anti-semitism it was
very funny to find out that the that the adl the is every number now they're
anti-semitism over a
replacement people is actually it's lower than it's so it's such a funny so it
might be 98 nazis there
but you would if you eradicated all of them the people that would come in would
be 99 nazi yeah so
they're actually negative one percent if you look at the the the effective
number i was literally
googling that as a joke and then got an answer for it what do you mean as a
joke like by yourself no
this would be funny i was with my girlfriend actually on a romantic vacation
and the guy in
the hotel said he's like oh yeah like we hate jews here really yeah because it's
so are you just go
there are you crushing with your girlfriend constantly like when you're saying
stuff no she
she doesn't find me funny at all yeah i find me funny at all i because it's
crazy the first thing
she's ever liked the first thing she had she's ever liked in the audience i
just want to mention this
as well are the uh tafts digital shorts the weekly tafts digital shorts which
are now on patreon likely
just steal yeah patreon.com slash tafts but my girlfriend loves them yeah and
then i realized
while she was laughing i was like that's the first time i've been associated
with any laughter
on your bath i'm pissed i'm back into chewing my soul patch area it's been a
hot spot for me for
my entire adult life and then i got gum surgery and i couldn't chew on it and i
thought i'd finally
broken and what does that this has been more of a detriment to me of all my bad
habits worse than
alcoholism or uh chewing on the tickler i uh well i don't really call i don't
how do you i call you
you call a soul patch but i think i chew the skin raw i would always have to
shave it completely
because the hair would i would get like a oral fixation and chew on it i
stopped for a month and
now i'm back there just shoving it in my mouth even oral fixation i think so
yeah terrible thing i'm
oral retentive anal explosive i think is my i in and i combo classic nifj is
that nijr what is my pro
no i don't think that's personality i don't think that i don't think that i don't
think i don't think
anal explosive i think i'm anal explosive the scientology uh center you went
for a test yeah you got a
a reading as well yeah really yeah so i need to hold on to the things yeah we'll
read your fortune i did
that when i was still in vancouver before i moved to la as a bit and i was like
i'm moving to la and
they were like whoa we got like a lot of stuff down there they're excited about
it they offer you a
career no now i just have beard because i'm a guest on the show really because
it comes out i chew on
and then you got to respect the tickler my brother yeah i don't even know what
my habits are i think
it's good that you know you don't know what your habits are no because i just i
just i guess i've
accepted them or i just haven't been trying to get rid of it well you're you're
not aware of them
you probably have one weird one that you don't know about i'm sure i do african
american vernacular
english yeah aav yeah that's one of my habits but you do canadian have you seen
that video that
canadian wigger woman no yeah it's so good it's so funny yeah yeah canada's got
the toronto accent
you were old enough now that like zoomers have their own version of wigs that's
acceptable like you
know because like ours was not i mean it was never really acceptable but that's
one of the best things
that the difference between that is the only major generational difference i
think between
millennials and zoomers is the toronto accent no no it's weird yeah i know so
you call it a toronto
accent you know when it's video i'm talking about like yo shorty's talking shit
yeah oh yeah it's a
yeah it's like a canadian wigress yeah and what did she say she said something
about like she's like
if you leave your mom's in the hood if you leave your mom's in the hood to my
stomach fam half of it is
like my stomach fam it's like rude boy bumble clot yeah it's kind of drake come
on drake appropriated
west indian uh slang i like the classic canadian accent bud like let's go hack
a dart it's
generational though do that because t-rock a dart is smoke a cig yeah what's
his name on on trailer
park boys t-rock t-rock he just sounds like that's like just an american kind
of style what i remember to
be right of race appropriator uh-huh and the new one now is unrecognizable to
me yeah it's it's
toronto is like a very west indian and properly indian uh totally yeah they
have a big south asian
population and a west indian population huge yeah whole market full of them
yeah fam you like where
they have shops and stuff it's their own businesses yeah yeah there's a lot of
those toronto accent
clips that are very funny like the ones that talking about uh where people go
to school yeah
yeah the school one is very good yeah i wish i could remember what's the town
called it's like uh one of
the suburbs i i am from vancouver so we don't really have but that's like a
different country you're from
china basically basically that's china canada we went there crazy because it
was a logging town no one lived
there it was just guys having pancakes until like 1975 and then boom just just
chinese people yeah
yeah they brought the uh heroin i'm assuming lots of heroin lots of heroin yeah
now it's fentanyl
it's also crazy and they got those safe injection sites vancouver in the entire
world might have the
highest ratio of like uh uh pretty what do you what would you call it topography
like natural beauty
versus architectural ugliness i like i like the brutalist i think i like the
brutalist stuff i
like the downtown is nice yeah no vancouver is one of the got that swedish uh
architect has a lot of
stuff there what's his name but anyways that courthouse is beautiful i don't
remember the courthouse
i remember most of the well they have like a law there shopping centers where
you can't block the
view from the building behind you right so all the buildings slope down to the
water a lot a lot of the
houses are ugly because in the 80s there was like a that boom of like people
and you're not allowed to
have basements so like or or you're only allowed to have basements if like the
so like they built the
first floor like two inches deep so they figured out a way they could build
houses and like really quick
so every house like looks the same and it's like they have like a fake basement
so they could get
the square footage and build quicker sick to my stomach they're all fucking
yeah they're sick to
my stomach stick to my stomach come on man so all those houses are so ugly and
they have like stucco on
them yeah yeah and a bunch of waste men l
