Welcome, everybody, to Stavis World.

We'll solve all your problems.
On the couch, we've got two of our pals, Ricky Velez, Giulio Gallarotti.
How are we doing?
Giulio returning.
Freed from the shackles of Patreon.
Breathing fresh YouTube air.
Breathing fresh Apple podcast.
Dude, the last time I did this was, like, probably one of the worst days of my
life.
Wait, what happened?
I got unbelievably high.
I remember that.
That was awesome.
He texted me.
He's like, Stav got me so high.
And now I have to do the podcast.
You know what's funny?
We just did Cush Brothers for the first time in a while.
Because I had taken some time off.
And we got so smacked.
Like, everyone was high.
Like, I don't even know if it was listenable.
But we were like, and then we were like, damn.
And then we were like, wait, who got so high they stopped talking?
And then we're like, all right, Giulio.
Giulio got it.
You were just sitting there, like, scared.
Dude, I was so scared.
JP was bugging me out for some reason.
Why'd you agree to do it?
Because, dude, because I'm fucking, I'm just trying to, like, get my shit to
pop off, bro.
Damn, dude, I wouldn't have made you smoke weed.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, I've smoked tons of weed in my life.
I don't know.
I just got really fucking high.
You mom didn't smoke.
Yeah, we can turn this into Cush Brothers.
I got really high.
That was so funny.
I know, dude, we got so high, too.
We were just, because, you know, there's evil weed out there, man.
There's evil weed that's ready to just completely destroy you.
How was the rest of your day, man, after that?
Were you able to...
It was bad, dude.
Yeah.
It was bad.
I got really, really, really deeply high and thought terrible things and then
took them
with me into sobriety.
Oh, no.
We just fucking made you plunge.
It was a full spiral of a week.
In every possible way, dude.
Like, it was wild.
Like, in the moment, like, about my life, about, like, my pants, too, were,
like, riding up weird.
And I was like, is my cock just, like, front and center on the show now?
I'm like, dude, this is completely high, man.
You see what we do for your entertainment?
You see what I do to my friends so you can wash dishes happier?
Oh, that's so fucking funny, dude.
Amazing.
Anything we can do?
Can we cure you?
Were there any worries that we can kind of talk through now?
Have you kept them up?
I'm back, baby.
You're back.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're not a big smoker, so.
I try, like, I was the guy who smoked because everyone else was and, like,
hated it every time but kept doing it for, like, 10 years.
Yeah, I feel like when we first met, you smoked, you did smoke.
What was that?
Everyone smoked.
It was a big, uh, that, I mean, that was probably when me and Neldus were in
our very large, our big weed smoking days.
The first couple years of this apartment, the first, like, four years of this
apartment, and that's when we met back, you know,
that's when we all met, probably way back in the day at the old stand, which is
now condo.
It is hilarious to be, like, to get here to have some New York memories, and
other peoples are, like, you know, oh, we saw so many, you know, oh, I remember
that loft that artists were in.
It's like, oh, we did, like, shitty Sunday spots at a building that is now a
high-rise condo.
Like, we have no, there's no, like, romance to any of our New York, like,
memories.
It's, like, it's all just dog shit.
Turned over.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's true, man.
I think that's the romance of New York at this point.
Yeah.
Just being ready for new.
Yeah, but it's all, but I would like it for it not to every single time be,
like, the shittiest glass condo you've ever seen in your life, for just, like,
you know, just Murray Hill expanding.
You know what I mean?
Like, that's unfortunately what it feels like on that side of town, on, like,
you know, like, the east side.
It's like it really is just kind of, you know, blending into that shit.
You grew up here, though.
You grew up in New York.
Yeah, I'm a lifer, man.
Yeah.
I don't know how I feel about it anymore.
Yeah.
I used to be hype about it, like, New York.
You want to get out, bro?
I don't know if I want to get out, but I want something to change.
That's a really not helpful attitude.
So listen to, like, I grew up in Queens, but I grew up in Queens Village.
So last stop F train plus a bus.
Love that.
All right?
Yeah.
I worked so hard to move into the city, and then the city turned into the hood.
Yeah, yeah.
And, like, after COVID, like, I had to, like, kind of, like, deal with a lot
more shit than
I ever wanted to.
If I came back to Queens, it would be wild.
Yeah.
It would be really wild.
Come back as a conquering hero.
Dude, move right next door to a cop.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Move into Bayside or Whitestone or something.
I just, like, I don't know.
I don't want to raise a Queens kid.
You want to raise a Manhattan kid?
Just a kid just running around.
You know what a piece of shit that's going to be?
Sorry, no disrespect.
He's doing well.
You're already, like, a few years in, so I don't want to...
He's a cute kid and everything, but the odds are stacked against that.
Like, look at, like, a good friend of the show, Sam Murrell.
He calls his super to hang pictures.
Do you understand that?
Do you understand?
That's who you're raising, bro.
No, it's really funny.
You want to hear something funny?
I heard this the other day, and I love this.
Sam Murrell goes to the same, like, exercise with the trainer as, like, all the
moms at my
kid's school.
Yeah, like, that's your son's future, bro.
That's what I'm telling you.
Like, if you raise a kid in Manhattan, he's going to not be able to drive.
He's going to be, like, you know what I mean?
Like, he's going to be scared of parking lots.
I don't really, I don't drive anymore.
I gave out my license.
Okay.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
A moment of, like, a sacrifice to Manhattan.
Just, I knew if I got in a car accident, someone was going to be like, oh, well,
he's
always stoned, and I'm going to get sued or something.
So I was like, yeah, this is overworked.
And you were like, you weren't like, maybe let me think about reducing my weed
intake to
the point where it's not a constant fear of getting caught doing something
wrong.
You were like, I will give up driving.
Driving or weed.
It's like, well, I mean, it's not going to be weed.
I also had to renew in, like, the first three weeks of COVID, and I was not
going to the
DMV.
Okay, okay.
All right.
Fair.
He's a very high-functioning smoker, though.
I always, like, am impressed.
Like, the most challenging task, he's like, I think weed would help me here.
Well, I kind of agree in that there is an adventure.
I got to the point where I was, like, so depressed that I didn't want to just
do, like, well,
I'm in a zone.
Now I'm not like this, but I would get in a zone where I was like, I don't want
to do it
sober because it sucks.
I want to, like, if I get so high it's a challenge to even, like, go to the
grocery
store, I feel like I've accomplished something.
You know what I mean?
Like, if you get so debilitatingly fucked up that you're like, all right, I can
go buy
ice cream.
You know what I mean?
Like, you have to, like, I can go to the grocery store.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You have to be like, all right, it's going to take me 40 minutes to get dressed,
you
know, like, put on a podcast to, like, tie your shoes.
Like, I would get that high so that I would just do, so it would make a task, a
task like
that could take four hours.
When you're, like, depressed, you just want to, like, you're not depressed
enough to kill
yourself, but you'd like to get closer to death.
So you're like, how slow, how much juice can I get out of one activity?
Can this day move, can I move my life forward one day without really feeling it?
You know?
And that's how I would look.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's a real coward's way to go about, to go about, like, self-harm.
It's like, I don't want to end my life, but I want to steal one day of my life
for myself.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I do that plenty.
Yeah, yeah.
I do that plenty.
Yeah, that's fine.
I think that's fine.
I'm good now.
It makes me more creative, for sure.
Yeah.
I don't know if it does, either.
I'm kind of, maybe you, for me, I think it, I don't know if it makes me more
creative.
I think I'm just dumb as hell and, like, you know, I watch movies, dude.
I would watch movies and forget I saw what I saw.
Oh, yeah.
No, that happens.
Yeah, that's being high.
I would throw in a movie four times in a row and the fourth time be like, wait,
I've seen
this, you know, like, that kind of shit.
But, you know, we'll see.
Dude, yeah, I'm a drinker, for sure, dude.
Like, every drug makes me hate myself.
Like, when I drink, like, it gives me confidence in this way that's not, like,
it makes me
break out of my shell.
Like, I feel, like, fairly well-adjusted socially.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I just like myself more.
Like, I can drink alone.
It's just, he drinks alone.
I like how, like, but I have a good relationship ever, dude.
How uncomfortable you were with me describing how I smoke weed, I feel the
exact same way
with what you're saying right now.
It makes me like myself.
I'll drink it alone.
How about he gets stoned?
He gets stoned.
How about you get drunk?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How about you both crumble?
Honestly, yeah, for real.
Dude, I look at the TV, and I see my reflection in the TV, and I'll just be
like, you're the
fucking man, dude.
The first, like, the first, the first, the first big trip he took to, uh, to
Africa.
To Africa.
Yeah.
We were shit-faced in Rochester, and he booked tickets to Africa.
Wow.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wasted, woke up.
I was like, all right, I guess I'm going to, like, I wasn't sure if I was going
to go.
I was like, is this sketch or whatever?
He also banged the girl that looked like Lil Yachty that night.
Dude, I told this story the other day.
I was like...
I think, dude, it was on Anus.
Oh, really?
Really, yes, yes, yes, yes.
You just did, right?
Yes, yes.
Anyway, I was like, dude, Ricky keeps telling me that I banged a girl who looks
like Lil Yachty.
She had the beads.
She had the beads.
Beads isn't necessarily bad.
If she didn't, you know, I don't mind the beads.
The mustache would be more the problem for me.
I mean, the hitting, the beads hitting each other while you banged her had to
be hilarious.
That sounds cool.
It was a great experience, dude.
It was a great experience.
Yeah, and it was a full-on sloppy second situation.
She's like, I'm going to try with the headliner.
Wow, really?
And it was very clear.
And then she looked at me.
She was like, yeah, I guess.
This will be good.
Were you a comedy at the Carlson?
Yeah, we absolutely were there.
That's a big, empty room.
Dude, by the way.
I know that place, absolutely.
One of the 12 people at the show got banged.
Dude, Lil Sass said one of the funniest things I've heard about that place.
I was like, how many
