Bubba the Love Sponge recounts his controversial history, detailing how he facilitated Hulk Hogan's sex tape scandal which led to a $50 million settlement and his own firing. He contrasts this with hypothetical scenarios involving Tucker Carlson and Donald Trump, arguing powerful figures evade prosecution while discussing his financial peak and subsequent ruin due to addiction. The episode critiques modern social media demonetization and proposes a federal misinformation bureau, before shifting to true crime stories of counterfeiters and drug smugglers. Finally, Bubba promotes his monetization strategies, including a "Bubba Army" loyalty program offering custom rings and exclusive parties, highlighting the evolution of radio into a multi-platform hustle.

Low Volume Headphone Advice00:03:51
Thank you.
If I was to give you any advice as to wear your headphones as low volume as you can, because remember when I was on the Power Pig and stuff, and I just had those motherfuckers just jacked up.
They'd be like, Bobble Lobb Sponge, here's a brand new one from Janet Jackson.
And I just had them jacked the fuck up.
And an old timer back in the day is like, listen, kid.
I was like 21, 22, and, you know, fucking slinging it.
And he was like, you need to turn your volume on your headphones down because when you get older, you know, and so, you know, you're having headphones in an enclosed environment.
It's not healthy for your ears.
And now I'm having ear issues.
Like big time ear issues.
My ears already fucking ring all the time.
Yeah.
You might have your headphones.
How, how, how hot, how loud do you put your headphones?
They're pretty fucking hot right now.
Let me hear them.
Let me hear them.
Here, try my own.
I bet you no guest has ever done this with you now.
No, no, no one ever.
I'm so thankful you're doing it.
Too hot.
Too hot.
Way too hot.
Okay.
Okay.
Like for, like, you need to go, like, yeah.
Like, I don't have a, I think they're perfect.
Maybe Matt Cox had them on before, you know?
And a little motherfucker.
We got to find him a leg extended surgeon.
We do.
I mean, listen.
Do you think your surgeon buddy can do it who does the fake tits and all that?
No.
That is probably such an aggressive, potentially problematic surgery.
First of all, you'd sit the kid down and say, listen, Matt, you're a good-looking guy.
I mean, he's a good-looking guy.
I mean, if you think that chicks are going to like you because you're two inches taller.
Right.
That shows you how fucked up you are, buddy.
Just keep stealing identities and fucking, you know, and fucking faking the funk.
You do that well, bud.
You really do.
And you're like, what, you're a fucking painter now or some bullshit?
Yeah, he paints.
I had him.
Listen, in full disclosure, I picked him up.
I saw, somebody turned me on to concrete about two years ago.
By the way, my new favorite guest is that motherfucker that goes into and gets 250 Bibles from the janitor and cuts out the pages.
And I found that, but that guy's fucking brilliant.
Yeah, he's a trip.
Is he going to be okay?
I mean, I think he's on probation now.
Is he not?
Yeah, I think he's on probation, but I think he's doing better.
I mean, he seems all right.
You know what the funny thing is about that?
If you read the comments of that podcast, they're ripping me so fucking hard.
They're ripping me.
Because I think there was one point where I asked him a question, he answered it.
And then I asked him the same fucking question like 20 minutes later.
Okay, come on.
Because literally, so Matt had him on his show, and he's like, Danny, this guy's great.
There's only like two or three.
Matt Cox has got a show?
Well, Matt Cox met the guy first, and Matt Cox called me about this guy.
And he's like, there's only really like two or three legit money counterfeiters that have ever been like.
Prosecuted like this guy.
Did you know I got in trouble for that?
No, I had no idea.
That's a story we need to get in.
Really?
Yeah.
So he calls me up and I'm fucking drunk at my buddy's house.
And I'm like, this was like four in the afternoon and this guy wanted to come at like six.
So I came, I had no idea anything about the guy.
I don't know anything about counterfeiters.
I'm drunk.
I just show up here two hours later and I'm fucking just trying to sober myself up and talk to him.
I thought your interview nailed it.
Oh, I thought you fucking nailed it.
Thank you.
I don't know that you get near the credit.
Like, I mean, within the Tampa world, now I know we're glow, you know, we think globally in podcasting.
and then on YouTube.
But you're a Tampa guy, you know?
And maybe more specifically a Pinellas County guy.
Oh, yeah.
Born and raised.
I mean, like there's two different distinct people.
There's the people that live in Hillsborough, and then there's kind of the Pinellas Beach life, so to speak.
Exactly.
But I don't know if you get the credit of having as large of a YouTube channel as, I mean, Cletus McFarlane, obviously killing it.
And what a good guy.
Have you had him on?
No, I'd love to have him on.
Oh, but I mean, there's not a lot of people that have your numbers in Tampa.
Decisions In Lieu Of Pussy00:04:51
I mean, yeah.
I don't know.
You get near there.
Nobody knows who Danny Jones is.
No, we need to get your brand out, buddy.
We need to get your brand.
You're just a regular, clean cut, good looking kid.
Well, thank you, man.
I mean, yeah, my life is super boring, man.
All I do is this and the only thing you're fucking up on is your head is your headphones my headphones.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah and raise your toddler.
You had a toddler.
Yeah, I've been in the fucking well, I've been in the pool.
That's my eyes are all fucking red.
How old your kid that miss with my gummy that I ate this morning, but he's uh, he's two years old and oh, it's a boy.
He's a boy.
Thank God.
Yeah, and I got another one doing September.
Oh, is it a boy or girl?
It's a boy.
Cool.
All right.
You're good.
I kind of want to have a girl to balance it out.
No, you kind of might want to stop now.
Okay, God, I mean, just take it from an old timer here.
Two's enough.
Okay, okay, kids are fucking how many kids you have one?
You have one.
Okay, he's how old is he like 20?
He's gonna be 20 and wow in June and it doesn't get any easier.
You know, here's the deal.
Here's the whole kid timeline.
They absolutely love you.
You're the fucking man until they get to be about 13.
Then all of a sudden, you're no longer the, you know, dad's the coolest motherfucker ever to live until they get to be about 12, 13.
And then, you know, they need you less and less and less.
And then they describe, they, you know, the boys find some pussy.
Right.
And then it's all over, but the fucking crime.
It's all over.
Just remember, you know, some things win the battle, but pussy wins the war.
Yes.
I mean, look at the decisions we collectively have made in lieu of pussy.
You know what?
I was talking to, have you ever seen that show Westworld on HBO?
How fucking good is that show?
Oh, it's great.
There's that one point I've been thinking about this nonstop for the past fucking three weeks ever since he said it when the old guy on that movie, the guy Hannibal, I forget his fucking name, Anthony Hopkins, he says, look at Mozart, look at Michelangelo.
Uh, look at the Eiffel Tower, the Empire State Building, all of the most brilliant literature and art architecture in the world.
And you think the human intellect is nothing but peacock feathers, just an extravagant mating call.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
Like all the most crazy inventions or art that's ever been created by human beings has all just been some extravagant, elaborate mating call.
And so, if you think about it, growing up, what is our now?
Okay, let's.
Let's say it's whomever you're attracted to.
In today's age, we can't assume that it's a guy, girl, girl, guy.
We have to assume that there's guy, guy stuff.
There's girl, girl stuff.
And if you're over 18, love whoever the fuck you want.
That's your prerogative.
I mean, like, I'm not here to tell you and judge you that heterosexuality is the only way to go.
I mean, fuck.
You can transition into what you want.
You can be what you want.
You know, that's a whole different world.
But with regards to, let's just say the way Bubba and Danny's wired, everything we do.
Up to a certain point is to better ourselves with pussy.
If we didn't have, if you and I didn't have a sex drive, so to speak, I would rather just hang, you and I have more in common talking about, you know, the ball game and bullshit like that than some chick.
At the end of the day, the only reason we have her hauling around the buckle brush is because we want to fuck her.
The only reason we drop, listen, if I didn't care about what a girl thinks about the kind of car I drive, you and I'd be rolling around in a fucking 04 Crown Vic.
We don't give a fuck about it, but we do everything.
In lieu of that pussy.
But we come up with stories to prove that that's not why it really is.
But it really is.
It really is.
It really is.
At the end of the fucking day.
You think Elon Musk, you think?
Well, that's a different character.
I mean, that motherfucker doesn't care about nothing.
I think that he's the most brilliant man on the planet.
I really do.
I mean, fuck, that guy's just got some type of it swagger that we haven't ever seen.
I mean, fuck.
He doesn't even have a house.
He doesn't give a fuck about nothing.
How crazy.
I mean, think about if you're the richest man in the world, you don't give a fuck.
It's like completely reverse of Matt Cox.
Matt Cox worries about everything, including. how big his fucking shin bones are.
Okay.
Elon Musk.
And by the way, I always mispronounce his name on purpose.
Just like I know Illinois is Illinois, but I call it Illinois because it's just my bubba charm.
I call corn on the cob, corn's on the cobs, just because it's my white trash fucking, you know, in my cult-like bubba army following nose that I fucking, but I call him Elon Musk.
Elon Musk is the most richest motherfucker in the world.
If I was the richest dude in the world, motherfucker, I would have a house that made Ben Maller's look like fucking, you know, the maid's quarters, right?
Elon Musk doesn't even have a house.
He fucking crashes on people's couches.
That's how much fucking swagger he's got.
Right?
If you were the richest man in the world, Danny Jones, what kind of house would you have?
Calling Illinois My Bubba Charm00:14:37
Yeah, no.
You'd have a staff of 50 just telling you how fucking big your dick is and how much money you got.
Hey, guy, I'm paying $100,000.
Tell me how much money I got right now and how big my cock is and how many girls are coming over.
Like Bubba Balzerian almost, right?
Like, you know, like that guy.
That guy's a fraud anyway, isn't he?
Haven't they come up that Balzerian may be like it might be like all kind of smoke and mirrors a little bit with him.
I don't know.
Have they?
I think that might want to be one of your next things you look into.
Look that up, Austin.
We can look it up right now.
Immediately, Austin.
Fuck.
Fucking right now.
No, I think, well, he does.
I think he rents a lot of the houses he lives in.
And then he defaults.
I've heard he's defaulted on some of the shit and gotten thrown out of these big-ass houses.
Well, you know he was Admiral Farragut, right?
Yeah, yeah.
And his dad was, they were from Tampa.
Yeah, his dad was a big fraudster, I think.
Right.
He was like a Bernie Madoff type guy.
Yeah, went to prison and shit.

I'm going to take a sip right here.
Murder your thirst.
I like it.
Have them send me a case.
It's pretty cool, right?
I got cases.

Murder your thirst.
That's their slogan.
You got to see their fucking commercial, too.
I like it.
Liquid desk.
It's canned water, basically.
Right.
Yeah, canned water because I think it's the only canned water.
Death to plastic, all about recycling and all that.
And you know what that?
It doesn't taste like.
It just tastes like regular bottled water.
Sometimes it gets I've had canned water before, and it gets a little canny, if you will.
It feels canny.
I don't know if that is even a water.
Water, you mean, yeah.
But it feels aluminum-y, you know?
Yeah.
And this feels just like straight water.
Liquid death.
Kudos on your shit, buddy.
It's good shit, man.
It's really good shit.
I love it.
What's that?
Did you ever try this?
No.
Can I have a case of it?
You see, I'm really.
So here's what you got to do.
Is it mushrooms?
No, no, no.
Okay.
So it's for like power lifting.
Have you tried microdosing yet?
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
I'm just making sure.
Oh, yeah.
Microdosing right now.
Me too.
Are you really?
Fuck yeah, of course.
Oh, we got to talk about that.
Yeah.
So this stuff's for fucking power lifters.
So, oh, please.
I'm sure.
Have you ever been knocked out like racing or anything?
Oh, yeah.
I've been knocked the fuck out.
You know the shit they give football players?
They put them in their nose.
Yeah, like the smelling salt.
Take a nice whiff of that.
That's what it is.
Hold on.
Are you going to knock me right the fuck out?
No, that's fucking great.
Jack you up.
Oh shit, is it legal?
Yeah, it's legal.
It's like a main line of adrenaline, right?
I need that right before I hit the fucking air.
I know, right?
Hold on.
Three, two.
Woo!
Hey, it's fucking about with a lot of spine here.
I'm fucking 605.
Usually I'm down to see, this is old.
This one's due to a 30 milligram of Adderall to get that effect.
Woo!
Oh yeah, I hit it.
Oh man.
Don't be a pussy about it, Danny Jones.
Hand the fucking heat over here, cousin.
It's legal?
It's an old one.
Yeah, we got to get a fresh one.
Do you just kind of shake it up the way you activate it up?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
See, I already know how it works.
I got to do my show too.
I got to bubble a little sponge, you know?
Come on.
Oh, yeah.
So, let me ask you a question.
Why the fuck did you, I mean, seriously, why did you have me on here?
You got like, you're a fucking legend, Bubba.
Yeah, I don't know.
You think so?
I mean, for real?
Dude, you are definitely one of the most iconic people to ever come out of Florida that I know of.
I remember being like 16, 17 years old in the back of a fucking construction van going to work every day, every single morning, hearing you come on the radio at 6 a.m.
Well, I'm fucking half brain dead asleep, riding to Sarasota, listening to you for two fucking hours.
And I would always wonder the one thing about you that always fucking like perplexed me was this guy is 6 a.m. sharp as a fucking tack every morning.
And I didn't even have that shit.
Without any of these fucking smelling salts, fucking rip roaring at 6 a.m. every fucking day of the week.
Like this guy's got some discipline.
And you know, the thing about it is, thank you for recognizing that, but in this forum that we're doing podcast, It is kind of the reverse of what radio is or was, where radio was high energy, boom, boom, boom, boom, nonstop, fast form.
And podcasting slows it way down and lets you kind of totally, you know, this is like slow fucking.
This is fuck.
Podcasting is fucking when you're 40, and radio's fucking when you're 18.
Because when you're 18, you know, you're.
And when you're 40, well, you're not even 40 yet, are you?
No, no.
You're like.
34.
You're just fucking getting it in there.
Yeah.
And so that's kind of the difference.
And I've been doing radio now for 35 years.
And, you know, thank you for saying what you did.
Radio has changed.
I'm locally heard on an AM station.
And, but, you know, I made the digital switch, so to speak, in 17.
And I really feel sorry for the regular radio guys out there that just have one regular show.
And have no other forms of distribution because radio is dead.
I mean, radio.
Is it?
100%.
I mean, it's the bag phone, so to speak.
I mean, look how cell phone technology has gone from.
Remember when you first, maybe you don't even remember this, Danny, but when you were a pimp back in like 85 or 6, if you wanted a cell phone, you literally had to have a fucking bag, like literally a backpack, and the phone was in there, like you're a military guy, and you had to zip that motherfucker up.
So that's what radio is now compared to what the digital world is, you know, YouTube, you know, podcasting, you know, all the other different algorithms and how you distribute.
It's still the expression, content is king.
How you distribute your content changes daily.
And people like you, you know, you probably are way more powerful in your distribution method of your content than any of the highest rated air personality in Tampa.
Don't have your reach by far.
It's so fascinating to me because sometimes when I'll turn on the radio, I listen to it, whether it be one, I think it's 1025 that I put on the other day.
And you listen to them talk for five minutes and then it's a fucking 30 minutes of commercials.
Right.
How the fuck are they getting all these ads?
And, well, through agencies and that are paid.
And who's paying for that?
Nobody.
I mean, digital has cannibalized radio by like 65, 70%.
And the bottom line is that these regular local radio guys.
are talking to only Tampa.
And the highest rated radio personality at any one time might have 40,000 people listening to him at one particular time in a 15 minute period.
They break it up in quarter hours.
So it's called time spent listening.
But like, so, you know, the highest rated guy in the morning might have 40,000 to 60,000 people listening at any time.
Look at your numbers.
I mean, look at big podcasting numbers and people on Spotify and Rogan and.
You know, other things like that, you know, Cletus, you know, just, I mean, people don't really realize how powerful, and quite frankly, I'm not trying to make this the Danny Jones blow up your ass special, but you really have established, you know, a great thing here.
You really have.
Being from a radio guy, I mean, I know you looked at me, it's like, oh my God, Bubba the Love Sponge, but our radio world has changed.
Radio guys would love to be you right now.
That's so interesting.
For real.
Like, and I don't know that if a radio, if you've really had a radio guy on here, never, that really knows it.
The way I do, but you've reverse engineered the whole thing by creating this digital real estate that you have and platform and delivery mechanism.
Your numbers I mean, I know I kind of had we talked numbers a little bit earlier, and there's nobody in radio making that type of digital money none, not one.
But also, the podcast market is so oversaturated too.
There's every single person has a podcast, but it's not oversaturated with good stuff, it's saturated with shit, and so.
Content is king, quality is king.
You have what half a million uh subscribers on YouTube, just about.
Yeah, people look at that and and and gravitate to that.
You know, like one thing I'll look at as I'm going through the YouTube world is I instantaneously look at how many subscribers they had that legitimizes that particular channel, right?
If I got a guy that's got 35, you know, but you know, you have you know some huge numbers, so it is, it's oversaturated.
And it's a bubble.
I think the podcasting world is going to burst like the dot-com bubble did.
Really?
I do.
But I think that the people that are big players in there obviously will stick around and will benefit because we'll weed out all this shit.
And people have the biggest misconception of podcasting.
People are like, oh, I'm going to start a podcast and I'm going to start making $5,000 a month.
Okay, buddy.
Fuck it.
It's a slow burn in order to inevitably to be able to establish great clients like Liquid Death.
And and and those aren't a sponsor, I just bought this for fun just to fuck with people.
Oh, well, you know what?
You should see this is where you're people like you that appreciate this kind of stuff.
Not many guests will appreciate this, yeah.
But here's where you're up is you should take this our video air check of us doing that.
Oh, yeah, and send it to them and say, Hey, I use your product.
That's what I do a lot of times.
I use your product.
Uh, I had a guest who's well known as well, he loves it.
We'd love to uh endorse your product.
Boom, see, I need that entrepreneurial mind.
And so, and so you know, and say, Listen, um.
And if anything, you'll get free product.
If anything, you'll get free product.
You own your own content.
Now, in radio, you get into plug-ola and play-ola scenarios with that if you don't own your own content.
Where, you know, where a regular radio guy, let's say, you know, Drew Garabo, who I love, by the way, you know, he couldn't, because he has a Cox contract, couldn't be drinking Liquid Death because he went to the store and bought it and then throw it out and then get a hold of him, Liquid Death, privately and say, hey, would you want to do?
No, that would all have to aggregate through Cox and Cox would get their little hands in it and the whole nine yards.
You, on the other hand, or me who own our own content and distribute it our way, we have every right to reach out to the liquid deaths or the monsters or this guy here.
And so honestly, you should have, is that Justin back there?
That's Austin.
Austin, Justin Austin.
Same thing.
Cut up the clip of us talking about this, doing the hits, send it to them and be like, man, who else is doing that for you?
Right, right.
Give me $500, $600 a month sponsorship and all the stuff I can snort and let's call it a day.
See, I think one of the good things I think about the evolution from the old school way of entertainment, like radio or TV or movies, it's still like that, obviously, with TV and movies, is the whole gatekeeper mentality.
It's so hard to break through in television or in the film industry, especially now, but forever.
And I'm sure it was just like that with radio.
No one could grab a microphone and just start talking.
No.
There are these gatekeepers of.
Old guys in suits who are have you know they're buddy buddies with these advertising agencies and they all they care about is money, right?
Is this guy pretty?
Does he have a nice chin?
And is he gonna, or who's he know, or who's his agent, or who represents him?
And you know, did I go out golfing with his agent last week?
Yeah, you know, they say that realistically, you know, 50% of business gets cut on the golf course.
These executives that are golfing and out, you know, and so this world doesn't rely on that.
You know, I did not, I stumbled upon your podcast through a person that I, my agent Tom Bean.
Happened to watch the Matt Cox pot the very first time he was on.
Yeah, that was the most popular one.
Right.
And he reaches out to me, my agent, and says, Hey, you might want to get this guy on.
So I was like, Well, where can I see his stuff?
There's this thing called Concrete, spelled with a K. Go look at that.
And so I, and now my co host, Anna Hummel, in full disclosure, your podcast is one of her favorite podcasts.
Really?
To the point where, She got into a fucking huge concrete rabbit hole a few nights ago.
We talked about this on my show.
I need to actually have my producers pull the clip.
We've been talking about you guys a lot on my show, The Concrete Podcast.
And she's like, we opened the show up a couple mornings ago, and she's like, oh my God, I got into this concrete podcast deal.
And they were talking about this one dude who followed these people around in West Virginia.
Oh, yeah, yeah, Mark Leto.
Yeah.
And so she was watching the Mark Leto deal.
So then she started getting into that.
And then she got into the Whitakers of West Virginia.
And so your podcast got her into this rabbit hole.
And so you're doing great things here.
And, you know, I want to help you in what I can do, like things like what I just showed you how to do that.
But I also want you to help me because I think together we could do some good shit together.
Rabbit Hole Into West Virginia00:15:06
Oh, hell yeah.
Hell yeah.
I mean, I'm ahead of you maybe in branding, in the knowledge of radio.
But fuck, you are way ahead of me in this world.
By far.
You are leaps and bounds ahead of anybody when it just comes to just, you're just such an interesting personality and you're so charismatic and you're so good at talking and you're so good at developing that rapport with people.
I'm fucking dog shit at that.
I came up just holding a video camera, making my own little documentary films and like little TV like pilots and shit like that.
Yeah, but you got the it factor.
And I disagree.
I wanted to agree.
I just wanted to agree that your dog shit on that.
I disagree.
Well, I've gotten a little bit better.
I mean, you're interviewing me and I think you're killing it.
Well, thank you.
I mean, so like, you know, I think that you, I mean, I really, really think that together, you know, we could do some good shit together.
How did you, I don't think, I don't know if you've ever done this.
I don't know if there's any like sort of like sequential documentary of your life anywhere.
There's actually a couple things being shot right now.
I'm shooting one documentary called Video Killed the Radio Star, which is, I think, about the most fucking brilliant.
You know, the Hulk Hogan sex tape really fucked up my life.
It really did.
And a lot of people don't know the truth to that.
If you were to go ask, let's say you two guys are walking down the International Mall or anywhere for that fucking matter, does anybody go to the fucking, to Pinellas, what's the seminal, what's tyrone.
Does anybody go to Tyrone Mall anymore?
No, I don't know.
But if you're hanging out on the beach or something amongst, you know, men 25 to 54 and you walk up to anybody in Tampa, Florida or maybe the world for that most part and you're like, hey, what do you know about the Hogan sex tape?
And they're going to say, oh, his best friend, Bubba the Love Sponge, taped Hogan fucking his wife and then Bubba tried to sell it and do him dirty.
There's truth to that.
I did let him fuck my wife.
And my home surveillance system captivated it as it captivates everything.
That's my only dabbling in the whole thing.
The sequence of events that happened thereafter will absolutely blow people's fucking minds when they find out how this all went down.
Now, I'm not trying to say, oh, listen, I'm innocent.
No, I let my best friend fuck my hot wife.
I did.
My best friend was in a.
Which is not, I mean,.
If everyone's willing, and there's nothing wrong with that, there were three willing participants.
And really, at the end of the day, had an employee of mine not steal my fucking surveillance, uh, only three people to this day would still know about that event, and my life wouldn't have been ruined.
Uh, my ex wife wouldn't be considered a whore, and Hogan wouldn't have 141 million dollars in his pocket.
So, I mean, joke's on me, motherfucker.
I mean, he really got all that money.
No, no, he didn't.
He got, and in my opinion, in my opinion, between now, there were no, don't forget, there were two lawsuits.
Hogan versus Gawker.
And then the lawsuit that nobody knows about, Hogan versus Cox.
Okay.
This, all of this was aggregated through Cox Media.
People don't, that lawsuit settled.
That lawsuit settled.
That's the story I'm going to tell.
I'm going to tell that story.
Everybody knows Hogan versus Gawker and how that worked out.
But if you were to go and ask that, people say, well, people don't realize is that my best friend, Hulk Hogan, lived with me at his lowest point of his life in 2007.
He was suicidal.
I had to take a gun away from him at one time.
He was going to kill himself.
And we were coming home from the dollhouse one night.
My wife and I had a semi open relation.
I mean, you know, we were, I wouldn't say we were necessarily in the lifestyle, but, you know, I'm not a jealous guy.
I've seen through all of my years on being on radio and, you know, the Squirt Olympics and the girls pissing in fucking coffee cans and shooting ping pong balls out their pussies and, Just all the stuff that I've seen, you know, I've become calloused.
So my best friend fucking my wife is not that big a deal to me.
And so.
You guys were married?
You guys were together?
Yeah, we were married.
And so we're driving home from the dollhouse, and my wife calls me, and Hogan's down.
He's going through the worst fucking divorce ever.
And I just told her, I said, hey, Heather, have a little sexy outfit on and take care of my boy when we get home.
And it was pretty much that simple.
The chain of custody of the tape is a story in itself.
Heather and I were going through a very nasty divorce, and I didn't want that DVD at my house.
At that time, so I took it and put it in my office, and an employee stole it, and the rest is history.
Then, an employee disseminated it.
The employee used it to try to extort Hogan for a million dollars.
There was an FBI.
Did you know that there was an FBI sting?
I had no fucking clue.
No, nobody knows this.
Nobody knows that this tape was shopped all around Hollywood, and everybody in Hollywood asked Spice Boy, Matt Lloyd, Spice Boy, my co host, was shopping this to Digital Underground and to Wicked Productions and all this, and says, And, you know, because the sex tape world with the Ray J and Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton and Tommy Lee, you know,
those were worth millions of dollars because people, the people in the tapes agreed, you know, for the, right.
At the end of the day.
Right.
Pam and Tommy want to act like they didn't.
They made a lot of money on that deal.
Well, Heather, myself, or Hogan.
Well, sex tape hasn't made money.
Yeah, right.
I'm the guy.
I'm the person that's been on the worst side of sex tape.
I'm the.
I am the fucking, the guy who got butt fucked by sex, by sex tapes.
So as Spice Boy was shopping this, this tape, I didn't even know that it was gone.
You know, like for instance, see that toolbox over there?
Yeah.
Okay.
You might have three half inch wrenches in there.
Do you really know that there's three in there?
Last time you checked, there was three.
But do you go back every day and check that there's three half inch wrenches?
Right.
No.
I knew my, this, I knew this sex tape was in my office in, in the desk.
I didn't go every day and.
Re look, oh, it's still there.
I just knew I never had an employee theft program problem.
I didn't, you know, I had nothing, I had a pretty small staff, and nobody went at my office.
I'd never have a theft problem.
People had keys to the building, they could come and work on the weekends and things like that.
Well, one of my employees stole it, I didn't know it was stolen until one of my producers, Brent Hatley, calls me March 4th, 2011, and flat out asks me, Did Did Hogan fuck your wife?
And I'm like, I'm driving into work.
It's 440 in the morning.
I'm on the Howard Franklin.
I'm like, what are you talking about?
He's like, on the dirty.com, there's a screenshot of your bedroom with Hogan, you know, on top of Heather.
And I'm like, oh my God.
Brent, Brent, run into my office right now and look at my top desk, top drawer under some papers.
There should be a DVD that says Hogan on it.
And he walked in there and said, it's not there.
I knew my life was ruined.
So Spice Boy was taking this tape.
And when he was going to all these places that could potentially buy a sex tape, the first thing they asked was, well, do you have 2257 forms on the people involved?
And a 2257 form is just a standardized form that says, I am this person giving you permission to use my likeness and distribute it.
And we own the right and all that kind of bullshit, which you should have me sign at the end of the day.
Actually, no, I don't have anybody sign those.
You should.
I think I should.
Yeah.
You know what?
I'll give you a chance.
If anybody ever told me they didn't want to be on here, I would take it down.
Sure.
But, you know, if you have it at 2257 further insulates.
Yeah.
That would be a good idea.
That would be a responsible thing to do.
I have a form.
Oh, really?
Yeah, I have the template, so to speak.
I can get you.
Oh, that would be fucking awesome.
And you tell them, you can either put in the form or you can tell them, hey, this just gives me the rights to put this on, but if you would ever have a problem with it, I'll take it down.
Be disarming when you would tell them that.
Because if they look at it like, it looks a little intimidating, you know, sign in some shit.
Another radio lesson.
Right.
I could teach you a lot of lessons.
I know, I'm learning a lot today.
My next lesson is to get a vasectomy.
Okay, now let's keep it at two.
Let's keep it at two.
You want to keep this empire going, motherfucker?
You get another mouthful of feed.
Then you got to figure you and your wife are going to end up getting a divorce one of these days.
You got fucking three child support payments instead of two.
Fuck.
You got baby mama drama.
She always says that.
She goes, I'm never letting you divorce me, but I don't care what the fuck happens when we get older.
She's like, You're getting a vasectomy after our next kid, after three kids, because I don't want any other bitch to have your kids.
That's her way of looking at it.
That's her way.
That's quite.
That's a lot of wisdom right there.
You might want to listen to old girl on that one.
Yeah.
But you might want to try to whittle her down.
Let's keep it at two.
I'm just saying.
I know.
Yeah.
I'm trying to.
I mean, child support's strictly a number.
It's 20% of your gross per kid.
Think about it.
20% per kid?
Per kid, bud.
Oh, God.
You're looking at 60 points.
60% of everything.
Yeah.
God damn.
Yeah.
Homeboys thinking about it is joking.
I can see why Hogan was suicidal.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, Linda got, I mean, fuck, I mean, His divorce settlement was just crazy.
So, anyway, Spice Boy starts shopping this tape.
He can't find anybody in Hollywood or anybody in the porn industry that will touch it.
They're like, listen, we cannot put this up if you don't have at least Heather and Hogan on 2257s.
It's illegal.
Well, at that point, the tape was worth nothing.
So, he, this will blow your fucking mind.
And this is what people in the mall don't know.
Is that he then got a hold of his wife's best friend who named Lori Burbage, who looked, worked at the BANK OF America, she was just making, like you know 20 20, like a single mom and gave her a thousand dollars to be uh, the liaison and he called up a guy named uh Keith Davidson who was the number one sex tape broker in Hollywood.
I've heard of him and he came, he flew to Tampa and brokered this and he had David Houston, who's Hogan's lawyer, who's now dead, and Hogan is that the guy looks like a burn victim.
Yeah, it looks like fire marshal Bill.
Oh, my god, let me tell you something.
I got so much heat when he died yeah, he died in Reno oh, and so uh, him and Hogan, uh Keith Davidson, got a hold of him and Hogan and said, we have this sex tape, I have the sex tape.
Well, first of all, the dirty.com print put, put the screenshot of it up, uh in march and kind of uh alerted the world that it was out there.
So everybody's scrambling around.
Where the fuck is it?
Nobody knows they can't produce it.
The dirty.com has to pull it down immediately.
But Spice Boy fucked up by, I think he got like $4,500 to send them just that picture.
So as he's shopping and he can't sell it, he then arranges a meeting for Keith Davidson to represent him.
And Hogan, David Houston, Lori Burbage, who represents the owner of the tape.
Because if Spice Boy would have walked in there, Hogan would have said, fuck, Spice Boy, because they knew, he knew Spice Boy worked for me.
Right.
You know, Spice Boy wanted to completely stay out of it.
Right.
So Lori Burbage goes in representing the owner of the tape.
Keith Davidson's in there.
They're brokering it.
But what they don't know is that Hogan and David Houston called the FBI and said, we're being extorted.
They want a million dollars for this sex tape for Hogan to buy back so that it doesn't get out.
That's what bad guys do.
If I got something here and you don't want your wife to see this, well, then buy it off of me, bitch.
Otherwise, she's going to get it.
Now, that was true.
Somebody did try to extort it for a million?
True.
It was an FBI sting.
That's been fully documented, videotaped.
Really?
They have it recorded him actually saying that?
Yes.
Wow.
I'll have that footage on my documentary.
Wow.
So they're in there, and Hogan writes a dummy check for $150,000 to buy back this tape.
The feds knock the door down, fucking put Lori Burbage and Keith Davidson in handcuffs.
Oh, this gets fucked up, Dan.
You're going to fucking freak out over this deal.
Holy shit.
So the FBI does this big sting, the whole fucking nine yards.
Keith Davidson's.
Lawyers up and hires a guy named Brian Albritton.
Now, Brian Albritton was my original attorney when I got in trouble for the hog situation.
Remember my hog deal?
Oh, yeah.
He was my first attorney.
So now, but he, now, when each new president comes in, they appoint a U.S. attorney for the district.
In Florida, there's three districts the upper, the middle, and the lower.
Well, that is, you're basically the U.S. attorney for the middle.
You know, you decide what the federal government prosecutes.
Well, Brian Albritton, after he became my attorney under the George W. Bush administration, was a big sling and dick.
He worked for Holland and Knight.
He was the U.S. attorney for six years in Tampa.
So he was the big sling and dick, this guy named Brian Albritton.
Well, after George W. Bush left and Obama came in, then they appoint a new U.S. attorney.
It's all politics.
Well, Brian Albritton, if you're a former U.S. attorney, after a year or 18 months, you can then go into the private world sector and be a regular lawyer.
So, what do bad guys do when they're in trouble?
If you got the opportunity to hire the former U.S. attorney who just left that office, who has all of his boys back then, who do you hire?
You hire that guy, right?
Right, right.
So, Michael Davidson hires Brian Albritton to represent him.
Brian Albritton walks into the U.S. attorney's office, a guy named Lee Bentley now.
Okay, I'm sorry, Robert O'Neill.
And he, Robert O'Neill, is the U.S. attorney, and he was formerly.
Brian Albritton's assistant.
So that's his boy.
So Brian Albritton goes and says, Listen, you got a pro wrestler and you got a fucking shock jock.
Hiring The Former U.S. Attorney00:08:55
Both are incredible witnesses.
This is going to be a fucking clown show.
You can't press charges on these people.
They no processed it.
They no processed it.
What does that mean?
They didn't prosecute.
They didn't attempt to.
They said no.
So it didn't get.
Matt Lloyd, Spice Boy, Lloyd Burbage, Michael Davidson, Keith Davidson, all the people that extorted Hogan.
Got away with it because I was the victim.
Because I'm the bad guy.
I'm the loudmouth.
I'm the guy that did Lesbian Tuesdays, No Panties Thursday, Redneck Mondays, Squirt Olympics, Squirt Olympics, Shoot Ping Pongs out your pussy, Ping Pong.
And that guy doesn't make a good victim.
You can do whatever the fuck you want to me, but they never will prosecute for me.
So it got unprosecuted.
So here it gets better.
So Matt Lloyd, Spice Boy, gets away with it.
He basically gets away with it.
I'm still doing mornings on the bone and now I have been and my count is doing afternoons and I'm still the morning man, but I'm now kind of the fucking piece of shit because America or corporate, they don't know about this failed extortion attempt because there was no charges brought.
So it never.
Are you talking about it?
No, I'm really not talking about it because I don't know about it because it takes a year for that shit to get out, you know, for, and I didn't even really know about it until Hogan sued Gawker and I'm in a deposition and they start asking me all these questions and I'm like, what?
Huh?
And so Spice Boy then takes this tape.
He's cleared.
No big deal.
And it's no value.
There is no value to this tape.
You can't extort Hogan for it.
Right.
You almost went to prison for that deal.
You can't get anybody to buy it.
So the only value it is is to get me fired over it and for Mike Kalta to get mournings on the bone.
And so Spice Boy gives it to Mike Kalta.
Mike Kalta gives it to his agent, Tony Burton, and Tony Burton hand delivers it to Gawker.
Gawker publishes it.
I get fired, and the bone promotes Kalta, and he's still there to that day.
He's still the number one morning man in Tampa, which I used to be.
And he used my sex tape to fucking do it.
And I'm going to tell that story.
It's a story that nobody in this room knew.
Did you know that?
I had no fucking clue.
I knew he was somehow involved, but I didn't know the details.
Yeah.
And so.
Hogan then sued Gawker, was awarded $101 million, collected $35 million because they filed bankruptcy and he was the largest creditor.
So got $35 million there.
I was heard after Peter Thale and all the I heard that Hogan put about $10,000.
This is just strictly my opinion.
I heard Hogan put about $10 million in his pocket for that after that was all shut down.
Then he sued.
It was brilliant.
He sued Cox separately for the distribution of how it got out.
And if you maybe my next appearance, if you go to the Pinellas County Court doc and you look up Hogan versus Cox and you read the complaint, it shows, you know, it lays it right on.
That's basically what my documentary is going to be following the complaint.
And Cox, I heard, and this is just strictly hearsay, that Cox wrote Hogan a $50 million plus check.
Wow.
Because.
Hogan had evidence of this tape.
Now, here's the bad thing about it Spice Boy quit my show in February of 2011, stole the tape, shopped it to the dirty, and then.
So, this tape appeared after he quit my show.
And he quit my show on great terms.
We were like, he was like, I'm going to go.
He quit my show.
I remember when he quit.
Yeah.
And he went to go do nights on the bone.
And it was a big thing.
It was like, hey, you're leaving my show, but you're going to do your own show.
My agent even cut his deal for him for free just because that was my guy.
That was my guy.
I didn't know what he had taken on his exit plan.
So, you know, he distributed it all and Cox did fire him.
But, you know, for years, I was the bad guy, the bad guy.
And in the evidence that Hogan had in Hogan v. Cox, I invite anybody to go to the Pinellas County Court record system and just type in Hogan v. Cox. and read the complaint, it will blow your fucking mind that Hogan had the fact that Cox actually had this tape on their servers and the management would look at it.
Cox management would look at this, watch this Hogan fucking my wife tape while I worked there.
The ongoing joke behind my back while I was working there was, hey, have you seen the fucking tape?
Oh my God.
So then the guy that they fought, so Calta's agent, Tony Burton, spins it to Cox.
You can't have this guy as your morning guy.
He's a pornographer.
He let his wife fuck Hogan.
He tried to do his best friend dirty.
I mean, you can't have that.
Clients are going to be falling off.
Nobody wants to be associated with that guy.
So they fired me and they promoted the guy at the end of the day.
They had to write a $50 million, what I was told, a $50 million.
And that motherfucker is still there to this day.
And I am still the motherfucker in the whole entire world.
Everybody thinks I did it.
That is so fucking bizarre.
I mean, it's so bizarre.
Let me give you an example that you might be able to wrap your fucking head around and take the bubba factor out of it.
You know Mark Wilson on Channel 13?
No.
Okay.
Mark Wilson, Channel 13, is the head lead anchor at the six o'clock.
You know, it was him and Kelly Ring.
Like local news?
Yeah, local news.
Okay.
And I'm just using local because I thought maybe you would know a little bit about it.
But like, you know.
I do watch Tucker every now and again.
All right.
We'll go into that later.
Let me use Tucker, who's a friend of mine.
I know.
Very good friend of mine.
I know.
Call him up right now.
Let's say Sean Hannity.
You're familiar with that.
Yep.
Sean Hannity, Tucker and his wife are in an open relationship.
And so let's think of somebody super famous that Tucker might know.
Donald Trump.
Okay, let's just use that.
Different players, but here's the scenario.
So Tucker lets Trump fuck his wife.
Right.
There's video of it.
It's not going anywhere.
It's, you know, it's just, it's not going to go anywhere.
Hannity fucking wants Tucker's job.
So Hannity steals the tape.
He starts shopping it around, and everybody's like, fuck, we can't, we can't.
Do you got consent forms for Tucker's wife and Trump?
No.
Sorry, we can't do anything about it.
Okay.
The FBI does a sting and fucking goes and Tucker's liaison tries.
I mean, Sean Hannity's liaison tries to shake Tucker down for a million dollars.
The FBI gets involved.
People get arrested.
But the FBI is like, listen, you got Donald Trump here.
You got fucking Tucker.
It's a fucking right wing.
I can shitstorm here.
We're not going to prosecute this, okay?
Right.
All right.
Hannity's like, fuck, it didn't work there.
So Hannity goes to Fox and Hannity then, you know, or no, Hannity goes to CNN and says, hey, I got a tape for you guys might want to fucking play it.
CNN plays the shit out of it, right?
Boom.
Fox fires Tucker and gives Hannity the job.
And then five years later realizes that Hannity is the one that distributed it, but lets Hannity keeps his job.
Yeah.
I mean, it's the same thing.
It's the same thing.
Almost the same thing.
Much bigger players, you know, a little more sexier.
Not at the time.
At the time, it was probably about equivalent.
I mean, you were much bigger than Tucker back then, weren't you?
Yeah.
One of the reasons why Tucker was on my show every Tuesday for five years is because we were globally bigger than him.
I had no clue who Tucker was when he was on your show.
I just knew that he was this great fucking guest who would come on.
Oh, he was the best.
He'd be like, uh, and he got in a lot of trouble for his appearances because he was so cynical and so funny.
He'd be like, let me tell you about Iranian women.
If they're not out, you know, fucking camels, they have hair underneath their arms, you know, and then, you know, and now he's gotten in trouble over all of his appearances on my show.
Right, right.
You know, but like, same, same, you know, same scenario, but just different players.
That would never, ever in a million years last.
People would not fucking tolerate that.
Tucker Was A Great Guest00:11:55
No.
Fox would not go for that.
Why did, it's just, it blows my mind that, listen, I am a bad guy.
I've done a lot of fucked up shit.
I'm the second highest find radio personality in the, In the history of radio, that's a good thing.
Yeah, I've uh, you know, you're second to Howard, right?
Right, second to Howard.
Um, I have you know been, I let me ask you this, Danny.
And you've had a lot of criminals and people that have been in trouble on your show.
How many of your guests have been on trial four times, jury trial four times, and are four and oh?
You're probably the only one.
I'm probably 100% the only one.
Yeah, I've been on trial four times and have never lost.
jury trial where I have jury of my peers in my community that have let me free every fucking time.
Four times.
I've been on trial four fucking times.
If that doesn't show you that society fucking absolutely has me all wrong and when I'm judged by impartial people on whatever I've been trumped up on, I'm not the fucking piece of shit that people think I am.
And you got a really good lawyer.
I got great lawyers.
When I came into the power pick, I said I got my lawyers and my lesbians.
That's all I need in life.
Lawyers and lesbians.
That's all you need.
And there's a little truth to that.
I mean, you know.
Power pig is such a good fucking name.
Just power pig.
Power pig rolls off you.
Bubba there?
Bubba speaking.
What's your name?
Lisa?
Lisa, how old are you?
12.
Call me in six years when you got pubic hair, bitch.
Hang up.
Bam.
I had a 52 share at night.
Hello, power pig.
Bubba?
What?
My grandpa died last week.
Here's an infamous call, which I wish I could find.
My grandpa, first of all, what's your name?
Lisa, how old are you?
14.
Well, I shouldn't even be talking to you because I don't talk to anybody under 18 because you're a little kid.
You're a little fetus.
Get the hell off my phone, you little fetus.
But I'll let this one through.
What do you want?
Well, okay, Baba.
My grandpa died and his favorite song was, you know, some bullshit song.
And can you play that for me?
Because my family's all gathered around right now.
And I go, Lisa, let me ask you a question.
What did Grandpa Fred do?
Is he in the ground in a casket?
Yes.
And when did you put Grandpa Fred in the casket?
Two weeks ago.
Okay.
Were you there at the burial?
Yes.
Did you guys put a boombox in there at all?
Was there a boombox or a radio?
No.
Well, then how the can Grandpa Fred hear the song we're going to play?
This is all for selfish reasons to make you guys feel good.
The bottom line is you just have to deal with it.
Grandpa Fred took a lick.
He's dead.
He's not going to fucking hear the song, and I ain't playing it.
Get off my fucking phone.
That's the shit that I would do.
And I had a 54 share because nobody in radio had the balls to do it.
And be like, you know, just, you know, shit.
Hey, who's this?
This is Johnny.
How old are you, Johnny?
Nine.
Johnny, is your mom and dad still together?
No.
You got a stepdad?
No.
How old's your mom, Johnny?
She's 35.
She got big knockers, Johnny.
For all the numbers.
Yeah.
You know, like her boobs.
You know, like, are they big?
And this is probably very inappropriate to be talking about a nine year old.
Yeah.
Listen, Johnny, how about I come over there and wear that and just wear out your mom tonight?
You know what?
I own Love Sponge Limos.
Johnny, how would you like to be going to school in one of my limos tomorrow?
Because I spent the night at your house because your mom was wearing me out and she made us French toast in the morning, Johnny.
How would you like to rolling up there with my 42 foot limo that said, Love Spud?
You'd be the coolest guy in the world, wouldn't you, Johnny?
I don't know.
Get out of here, Johnny.
I didn't mean any of it, you little bastard.
Leave me alone.
Oh, my fucking God.
That's the shit on the Power Pig.
And then I went to 98 Rock.
And then that was a whole, you know, I'd have literally, hi, who's this?
This is Rhonda.
I work at Binigan's.
Me and my boyfriend are here in bed.
Rhonda, listen, your boyfriend right there?
Yeah.
Put him on a phone.
Hello.
Hey, what's your name?
Ron.
Ron, why don't you start blasting her right now live on the air?
Get on top of her and just start going crazy.
And I want to hear it.
Put the phone down there.
Next thing you know, wham, wham.
Have her call you Superman.
Oh, Superman.
Superman.
Bark like a dog.
I mean, you know, just all.
And the thing about it is, as I was telling you off the air, I have all of this shit.
I just got to wrap my head around it and figure out how I'm going to distribute it.
whether I put it up on YouTube or I put it up on a podcast.
I mean, I got all of this.
I've owned all my content since 1992.
I have that many.
I have enough content that would fill this room up.
Even though you were on like 1025 and all those networks, you still own it?
I owned it all.
Really?
My agent, Tom Bean, was so brilliant.
I was an independent contractor that licensed my show to them for the term of my contract.
And they had the right to broadcast my material.
That I was no longer employed, they had no right to it.
Wow.
To distribute it anyway.
And so I have all of that.
I just need a guy like you to help me out and to get it out.
Well, we're going to do that.
Whether it's me or.
I need a hit of this.
Yeah, I need another hit too.
Let me get a hit.
Damn, maybe turn the air down.
Fred, it is fucking hot in here.
I create a lot of energy, Fred.
I really do.
It is fucking hot.
We need to crank that shit down with your Birkenstocks.
And that fucking perm of yours.
Is that a fucking perm?
That's a fucking perm.
Let me see.
Where are you from, Austin?
What's your nationality?
Czechoslovakian Polish Polish Polish Polish Jew Polish Polish Jew Polish Jew.
Oh, he's triple insulated you can do anything he wants Where do you get that shit at?
On their website Jimmy it's a jujimufu.com I saw it because I saw I saw Joe Rogan was using it him and did you know Rogan did you know Rogan used to I've had him on my show I saw that I saw the fucking thing on YouTube I can't believe only has a thousand fucking views on YouTube so he's on fire for like a whole fucking hour.
How do I Do I just need to take that video and put some Danny Jones?
We need to spice it up a little bit.
Put some Danny Jones love on it.
We need to put some lipstick on it and lipstick on it.
I got Joe Rogan saying, I'm a fan of your show, and I actually missed a meeting last week because I was so riveted to your show, I couldn't get out of the car.
How the fuck am I?
You said he pulled over on the side of the highway to listen to you talk to somebody.
I said I'm not putting 15 bucks a month in my fucking pocket.
What the fuck?
I need to pull this Jew with the fucking white trash kicker here immediately.
Fuck.
God damn!
Dude, like, I couldn't, like, how long ago was that you had Joe on your show?
08.
That was 08.
And he took, and you were.
What was he doing?
Touring for comedy?
Yeah, and UFC.
When I was with Sirius XM, I had the fucking sweetest deal.
Dana White would pay me $25,000 for every pay per view to fly me out, and they had my own studios right backstage, and every fighter had to come interview with me.
Live on Sirius XL.
Really?
Yeah.
Fucking VIP suites, whores, fuck everything.
Crazy.
Yeah.
That's fucking amazing.
I don't even realize how fucking cool I used to have it.
God damn.
Now I'm in a fucking AC unit back here.
Now you're in the fucking Danny Jones trailer.
Danny Jones fucking sex dungeon.
That actually was my inspiration for this setup.
It was supposed to look like a 70s porno.
But you know what?
On camera, it looks good.
Yeah, thank you.
It looks good.
Oh, so that's your liquid death stuff.
That's my liquid death memorial.
You got any concrete t-shirts that you have?
I got a fucking shitload of them for you over there.
And hoodies.
Each guest gets some.
Yeah, that's right.
When I was telling my girl, I was like, yeah, I think I'm going to bring this guy some shit.
He's pretty good.
Cool, he might be able to help me.
I like him, yeah.
No, for you, I got you a shitload of stuff.
Um, good 3x.
Oh, no, the biggest I have is 2x.
Motherfucker, you're 3x.
You don't look 3x.
Uh, you know what?
I'm losing weight, so that'll give me something.
When I can finally wear my concrete hoodie, I'll make a big deal.
Are you always trying different diets and shit still?
My, I remember when back when I listened to you, we were always trying different shit.
Yeah, I'm only, I mean, aren't we all?
I mean, aren't we?
I mean, you're trying this shit, right?
Exactly, that's my diet.
When you're fat, you're always trying, like, you know, yeah.
I just, I've always been, I've always either been big, like, I played football.
And big.
But then I got real fat radio when I got, when I was fat.
Yeah, because when I was in the Power PIG, you know it was like we were.
And and you know Matt Heller from HORN HORN Blasters no, might want to look him up.
Okay, he's a stud, Matt Heller.
He owns horn blasters, you know those big train horns that people put on trucks.
He owns that and this like hangs out with the Gronkowskis and he probably travels in some of the same circles like Tfue and some of that.
But um Matt, what was I talking about?
Matt Heller.
Fuck.
Diet.
We're talking about diet and eating and shit.
And he was one of the, I don't know how he got in there.
I don't fucking remember about Matt Heller.
I forget now.
Fuck.
I completely forgot.
You said radio.
We started getting radios when he started getting fat.
And then he started talking about Matt Heller.
Yeah, I forget now.
Fuck.
I forget.
Anyway.
That's okay.
It doesn't matter.
Just that fucking sniff shit.
You got it going.
The fucking, the way that you talk to people when they used to call in and shit, like on the power pig and talking, like, is that just like an inherent.
Oh, I know what Matt, I didn't even fuck.
Go ahead.
Matt Heller said it best.
Back in the day, In Tampa, and then I was, you know, syndicated in like 12 other cities Miami, Orlando, Jacksonville, you know, Fort Walton Beach, uh, Naples, Fort Myers, uh, Hartford, Connecticut, Richmond, Virginia, uh, Cincinnati, Ohio, San Diego.
You know, so I was my syndicated, you know, while I was doing my morning show on 98 Rock.
And so, as you said, when we were, you know, earlier, when you would be in that pickup truck and you'd be listening to me, think about it, you didn't have a smartphone, there was no Twitter.
There was no Twitch.
There was no YouTube.
There was no Instagram.
There was no Spotify.
There was no nothing.
I was the form of social media.
If you wanted to know what was cool, what was happening, what was shocking, what was sexy, what might be provocative, I was your only outlet.
That's why I got to be so big and so iconic in the space that I was, is because I was kind of the first form of social media in our little world, in our little microcosm of radio, so to speak.
So when you're in the back of that truck, You know, you didn't have your fucking phone to be scrolling through looking at fucking, you know, TikTok shit.
You had to listen to the radio in order to be cool and to know what was going on.
And Matt Heller was the one that came up with that.
He was, you know, he's super big on social media.
I think Hornblasters has like a million five Instagram people, and that's a local deal.
But I think that that's the, I don't mean to be narcissistic or bragging, but I think that's kind of right.
I think that's kind of one of the reasons why I was able to obtain or get to the status, you know.
That I've become or had at one time.
Yeah, I think that's 100% right.
I think, you know, back in those times, like what I was trying to get at before was like your whole personality and the way you come across, like even being so energetic first thing in the morning and being able to go through these fucking marathon shows every single morning and maintain that energy throughout the whole thing.
Adderall And College Days00:05:26
And I've never done cocaine ever in my life.
Never?
Ever.
Stop.
I've never done cocaine in my entire life.
I didn't think you were on cocaine, but I thought you were for sure on Adderall.
No.
No.
Never?
No.
Now, recently, I've discovered Adderall, but Adderall wasn't a thing until what?
How many years ago?
I mean, I fucking took Adderall when I was in college in 2007.
I knew, I knew, I didn't find out about Adderall until probably five years ago.
Really?
Right.
I mean, I didn't even smoke weed, and I now love weed, but I didn't even try weed until 10 years ago when I was 46.
Prior to that, I was in doctrine, like, I was from Warsaw, Indiana, and, like, weed was a gateway drug.
The minute that you smoked a joint, you're going to be.
Shooting up heroin.
And so I was like, and so this rock style of this rock star of a lifestyle that I lived, and you know, I'd be backstage with Motley Crue at Livestock, and I'd be with fucking, you know, your life.
I can't believe you never tried cocaine.
That's crazy.
Or weed.
Everybody'd be getting high as fuck, even my guys who work for me.
And I'd be like, ah, I don't need that.
You know, I'm just naturally, you know, high energy, and I have the ability to get to get to, you don't need it to turn it on.
So I tried weed 10 years ago for the first time.
I was just telling this conversation last night at dinner, and The reason why I didn't like weed is I don't like smoking.
I think it's dirty.
I just don't like smoking.
My mom and dad smoked when I was a kid growing up.
They quit.
But it was just, I hated it.
I hated it.
Well, Brent Hatley, my executive producer, remember when they first came out with those volcano?
Oh, yeah.
And so, and he would have these things and they had these big bags that looked like helium-filled balloons and you'd just suck on them.
So in 2012, here I am going through shit.
The Hogan tape just broke.
I'm fucking a basket case.
I don't know if I'm going to lose my job.
Everybody thinks that I'm the bad guy.
I'm the one that fucking taped Hogan fucking my wife, trying to get rich.
You know, we've been through that story.
I'm just going.
I mean, I'm not thinking I'm thinking I'm going to kill myself, but I'm just at the lowest point in my life.
And, you know, my wife, I just went through a huge divorce with my wife.
You know, it's just so much uncertainty that really I needed weed.
I mean, people don't realize how beneficial weed really is.
Oh, it's fucking great.
I mean, like.
It changed my life.
And so at 46, here I am going through fucking hell.
And finally, Brent Halley, my producer, comes up with a way that I don't think is dirty and fucking, you know, smelly.
And like, it's a bag.
He goes, Bubba, how many times have you taken a helium balloon and, you know, and like did it?
You talk like Mickey Mouse and shit.
I'm like, yeah, yeah.
He goes, it's the same thing.
So I had this big ass bag.
So I fucking did the smoke.
And I was just like, and the first thing that came to my head was, What's so bad about this?
How can this feeling that I have be bad?
Right.
Now, when you're drunk, you know, sometimes you want to fight, sometimes you, you know, but I'm like, society has really got this wrong on what this does to you.
Like it doesn't, and at that time, it kind of opened up a world of euphoria and a different dimension of how to look at things.
and not be so fucking uptight.
It kind of just made me less uptight and gave me the ability to cope with kind of what I'm dealing with in somewhat of a mediscible type way.
You know, I wasn't going to go and take antidepressants.
And, you know, I'm not in all that.
I know some people that take, you know, fucking Zoloft and all this kind of bullshit just to be.
Oh, really?
Yeah, I'm old school.
I don't think you, you know, a lot of people get fucked up off that stuff.
Yeah, I mean, I know some guys that take it so they don't premature come.
Zoloft?
Yeah, if you take enough Zoloft, it makes you, I mean, you could fuck all night long.
Really?
Yeah.
It's kind of bothering me.
Now you're going to abuse it.
I am going to abuse it now.
Tanny Jones 3 refill Zoloft, please.
Oh, you know, you wire your bitch out.
I don't need a prescription.
Well, yeah, you do.
We'll get, we can find street.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
We'll get a little shit going on.
We'll find a doctor.
I mean, you live in Penelope's Park.
We can get that.
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
I know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy.
We're into some Zolis.
Are you serious?
You're microdosing now, mushrooms?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
What do you think about that?
How do you like it?
I love it.
I love it because it's just, I don't ever take too much that trips me out, but I take enough to make.
Kind of fuzz me out.
I kind of call it kind of like on the edge, yeah, on the fence of like tripping too hard.
I've not, I've not tripped never hallucinated visually.
Nope, nope.
I just, you know, kind of just just a little bit and it just kind of takes the edge off a little bit.
Do you do it when you're live when you're on radio?
Oh, yeah, do you really?
Oh, yeah, does it help enhance it?
All right, yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, it does.
I mean, that with a gummy chaser, man.
Oh, my god, fucking the next Howard Stern, Danny Jones.
God, Danny Jones, we'll make you a rock star.
I mean, we got to work Danny Jones.
I mean, come on, we got to put some fucking showbiz in that, you know.
Yeah, Danny Jones.
I mean, that's the guy who mows my lawn.
That's the guy who cleans my pool.
What a vanilla fucking name.
Yeah, Danny Jones.
Yeah.
Concrete's good.
Peak Career Million Five Years00:05:20
Shitty name.
Yeah, Concrete is a cool name.
I mean, Concrete's so good that who gives a fuck about who Danny Jones is?
I agree.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm hoping for.
Yeah.
But what I wanted to get at, before you started to get really big on the bone, and one of the things that made you so interesting to me when I was younger, when I was in my teenage years working construction, listening to you every single morning, was that, Not only were you super fucking entertaining, you always had the craziest fucking people calling in, like Tucker and you had Hulk that would call in.
Oh, every day.
But on top of that, you were known for being this fucking, like, rock star rich person.
Yeah.
Like, you're like, oh, I got millions in here.
I got this million dollar mansion.
Oh, but like, this guy's fucking rich as fuck.
He's rich.
Listen, I'm not trying to brag.
But that makes you so much more interesting.
Fuck.
I was doing, in my heyday, I was doing five million a year.
You know, I had three or four years at five million.
You know, I mean, I had a fucking plane.
You know, I had fucking, yeah, I mean, and I'm not, and I, and I say that, you know, I say that humbly because I lost it all and I was fucking stupid about it.
And if I had my mindset today, if I'd started fucking doing weed at 36, I'd probably have half of that left because I'd be like, you don't need to go out and pay cash for a hundred thousand dollar Escalade when you can fucking finance it for fucking two percent.
You know, I'm saying like, you know, like just stupid shit.
You know, you don't need.
How old were you in your like in like the peak of your career?
Well, I would say the peak of my career.
Money-wise, you're talking about?
Money-wise and like popularity-wise?
Probably 06 to 12.
That six-year period when we were heard both on Siri.
We were afternoon drive on Howard, on Howard 101.
So we had Howard's rub.
And then I was on, you know, 14 Cox.
You know, I mean, fuck, I was making a million five for my Tampa deal.
I was making 500,000 per affiliate.
So 500 for Orlando.
500 for Jacksonville, 500 for Miami, 500 for Richmond, 500 for Fort Myers.
And then Sirius paid me $2 million.
You know, so I did six years of that.
So I would say, how old was I in 06?
I was born in six.
Was I 40?
40.
40 years old.
40 years old.
Wow.
40 years old.
You know, hot fucking wife.
You know, two kids.
Running around, getting drunk with Hulk Hogan.
Running around.
Such a fucking pimp that when I went to the Lightning games, I parked where the players did and walked in through the players' way.
That's how I got to the game.
That's so fucking bad.
And again, I say that so humbly, and I wish I would have taken a step back at that time and realized what I had and been a little more appreciative and thankful for what I had and certainly had a better savings program.
You're a fucking outlier, especially when it comes to this.
You're not a liar or an outlier?
No, you're not.
If you're a liar or not, you're a lawyer.
I'm brutally honest.
An outlier.
But like, yeah, it's obvious that you have extreme fucking talent when it comes to this media form.
But I wonder what your perspective is on why you became so fucking successful.
Do you think it was more of just this inherent talent or gift that you have?
Or do you think it was more of just the discipline and the hard work and the not quitting?
I think it was the first.
I think that I have an ability to.
communicate, to be jovial, to be self-deprecating, to be, make the joke on me, but yet be stiff enough to do a good interview and tell a bitch to go pack sand and get the fuck out of my studio.
And so kind of like, you know, I'm kind of like the, like the guy that's running the bulldozer or running an excavator, a regular guy.
I'm a regular dude.
You know, I, I think I come across as a regular guy that has kind of the it factor, that's a good bullshitter, that's a good communicator, um, and is a risk taker.
And so where most radio personalities would be like, hey, I got a, you know, when I was in on the, when I was first starting on the 98 Rock, I think my base pay early on was like 450, 500, which was fucking, this is 1996, you know, big money.
So a lot of guys, guys that are making that kind of money will be like, well, I'm not going to take any chances to piss off management because I'm going to lose my gig.
I'm like, fuck it.
I'm going to go wide open here because it's going to make me more popular.
And if I can just get management to stand behind me, it'll escalate the fucking rock star popularity deal.
which you will equate to more money.
And I've always, I've always, I've always bet on myself.
I've always bet on myself.
And I think that that's, you know, I'm a risk taker and an outlier.
And some of the risks I've taken have been not good for me.
And, you know, but if you look, I mean, listen, I've been, I got fucked up over the Hogan sex tape.
But, you know, that might come back and boomerang it back around to help me when my, when the truth gets out.
Promoting Wide Open Rock Star00:06:32
I mean, I told you the truth and it blew you away.
Wait till.
You know, Netflix tells the truth.
You know, I'm not going to do it.
Netflix doing it?
No, I don't know who's going to do it.
The documentary game is a really fucked up game in itself.
You know, it really is.
You know, we may have to go to some film festivals or some things like that, but we are in the process of shooting it now.
And in shooting it, we're shopping it as well.
We have a, there's a ton of people in the streaming space now.
It's just not Netflix.
You know, Paramount, Peacock, you know, everybody is looking for content.
And when we tell our story, The average person has the same reaction as you.
You're like, you're making this up.
We're like, no, here's an 1800 page, you know, Hogan versus Cox complaint that completely validates everything from phone records to FBI.
You know, we're in the process right now.
The FBI is being a bunch of fucks about giving us this surveillance of the San Pearl takedown.
Well, it's my right.
San Pearl?
That's where the FBI sting took.
Oh, shit.
The San Pearl, that real.
Oh, I know.
Yeah.
I got arrested there once.
You got arrested there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
For what?
The guy we were talking about earlier, when we first started doing our show together, uh, to in order to promote the show, this was before anyone watched it.
This is like right after I started Youtube, I had like no following.
I had like 40,000 subscribers.
Well, me and I was trying to make me feel like a man that really makes me feel like a real fucking jobber.
I had no, I got i'm, i'm trying to get to 45.
I'm at 44,800 sucking, is that where you're really at?
Yeah oh fuck, 44,800.
I'm sucking dick for beer money here and you're saying I got arrested on some bullshit, but I had nobody listening to me.
Well, you have fucking twitch so whatever, it doesn't matter.
Yeah well still anyways, I didn't have twitch, But I was trying to promote the thing.
I was trying to blow the show up on YouTube.
I was like, how the fuck can I do this?
My buddy Jack has this really fucking big YouTube channel with over a million subscribers called Jug Squad, where he just fucking pranks.
I'm familiar with him.
That's Tfue's brother.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I'm like, Jack.
I want to meet that guy, too.
Oh, yeah.
I'll get him on your show.
I'll get them both on your show.
He's fucking, I've seen so many.
I love his shit.
Oh, he's fucking.
The Jug Squad, right?
Jug Squad, yeah.
Yeah, we go golfing.
He's killing it.
He is.
They're both crushing it.
Oh, good for them.
So I was like, we got to fucking promote this.
How are we going to do it?
I'm like, maybe I can do a prank.
And I was like, I always had this idea to do a prank where we prank the valet.
So I got my buddy's Ben's Rolls Royce, right?
I'm like, first I talked Ben into it.
I'm like, this is how it went.
I said, we're going to promote this fucking show.
We're going to get a prank to go viral using your Rolls Royce.
We'll put it on his channel.
It'll get millions of fucking views.
Right.
And it'll promote our channel with the show.
So we'll get a fucking built in audience from that video going viral.
He's like, okay, great.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which is a great idea.
But only do it at Frank's restaurants.
Don't do it at the fuck.
Frank Shevice's?
Yeah, exactly.
I grew up with him.
Frank Shevice is one of my best friends.
Is he really?
Frank Shevice.
I grew up with his kids.
Unbelievable fishermen, are they not?
Oh my god, dude.
Fucking Cody is a he is like the Elon Musk of fishing.
He is Frank Shevis is one of my best friends.
Frank Shevis, as my wedding present when I married Heather, and I had Stern there.
I should show you the videotape of my wedding.
I had Stern, I had Hogan was my best man.
Well, I'd love to see that.
You should post that fucking shit on YouTube.
I think I did.
Oh, did you?
I think I'll have to find it for you.
But Shevis catered it all salt rock style.
I'm talking about you know crab legs, you know, fucking chocolate fountain, you know.
Steaks, lobster, liquor, a whole nine yards.
The bill was $74,000 for catering.
Okay.
So we go on our little honeymoon.
Frank says, Hey, when you get back, come over to the Salt Rock and bring your credit card or your fucking checkbook and we'll settle it up.
Okay.
I'll give you a huge discount.
You know, I'm going to give you my cost.
The $77,000 should be about $40,000.
Okay.
And everybody, Howard Stern, everybody is like just raving on just like my fucking wedding was the best catered.
I mean, from even from the Hampton and all the like.
My stupid Bubba Clem from Warsaw Indiana, marrying Heather Cole from West Virginia at the Golfport casino was the baddest catered event in the history of the land.
So I go to Frank Chevis with my checkbook and uh he, it was going to be like 46 500.
Now I had already tipped all the bartenders in Bart that night.
I just give them a couple hundred bucks, you know that night, and so it's where.
It's like a month.
It's a month down the road And I go to write my check, and he goes, Okay, here it is.
Here's the itemized bubbit was $77.5.
I took off my food cost, blah, blah, blah.
I have about $44,500 in it.
I said, okay, Frank, who do I make it out to?
One of his LLCs, I make it out to.
Boom, I thank you, Frank.
I love you.
God, it was the best ever.
A week later, I get a Federal Express.
And you know, we all open our, if one of the things, if you ever want to get somebody to open something, send it to them Federal Express.
We all open our Federal, you may not open your mail, but when you see a Federal Express, don't you open up right away an overnight package, right?
He overnighted me a package from Frank Chavez to the studios.
I'm like, oh, fuck, you know.
Open it up.
It's the check torn in half and said, Congratulations, friend.
No fucking way.
Way.
That's the coolest.
That is just straight pimp.
That's badass.
Look, I got goosebumps.
That's fucking pimp.
That is badass.
That's Frank fucking Chevis.
That's cool as hell.
So anyway, Frank fucking Chevis, you had to do it at Frank's restaurants.
Sorry to just, yeah, I'm very.
No, that was a great fucking story, man.
I know, but I had to interrupt you.
That's cool.
No, I appreciate it.
That's your job.
That's why Matt Cox doesn't like me because I interrupt him.
Really?
Yeah, that's why whenever I have to interrupt him.
And I'm taller than him.
Whenever I have him on here and I talk over him, or I talk, he's a dog dick.
All the little commenters, they get pissed, like, Danny, shut the fuck up.
Let Matt talk.
Yeah, but I'm like, fuck Matt.
It's my show.
Yeah, exactly.
It's really not my show.
It's the guest show.
Not really.
It's your show.
But so, anyways, so I'm like, yeah, we'll promote this fucking little web documentary that we're going to do about you selling real estate and we're going to do a prank using your Rolls Royce.
It'll be huge on the Jug Squad channel.
Yeah.
And so I get it.
And he's like, just don't, you just only do it at Frank's restaurants because I don't want you to get in trouble.
My dumbass, we did it at Frank's restaurant.
The prank, the whole prank was, I pull up in the Rolls Royce, or no, Jack pulls up in the Rolls Royce, goes to dinner with his girlfriend.
I have the other key to the Phantom, the Rolls Royce, and I sneak up after the valet parks it.
Arrested Video Made It Better00:04:06
Take it.
And I take it.
Then he comes back after he's done eating to get his rolls back, and the fucking rolls is gone.
Right.
So that's the whole prank.
And he fucking cuts a promo on him.
Where's my fucking rolls?
Where's my fucking car?
Right.
Exactly.
We did it a couple times.
We did it in front of the Brown Boxer, we did it at Island Way Grill, and we did it at the Sand Pearl.
Right.
Anyways, I did it at the Sand Pearl.
I got caught trying to sneak it back out of the valet garage underneath the Sand Pearl.
And I'm fucking with the guy.
They fucking call the cops.
And I'm like, dude, I'm like, this is my friend's car.
We're doing this.
This is a whole thing.
We're doing a whole thing here.
And they called the cops anyways to get trespassing.
I got like misdemeanor trespassing.
I still had to go fucking in the paddy wagon to the Clearwater Museum.
You're just a fucking straight gangster.
Look at you, motherfucker.
Yeah.
And it ended up making the video 10 times better because I got fucking arrested.
Right.
It actually probably helped.
And it worked.
It promoted the fucking show.
Our little show we created, Life for Sale, ended up getting a huge boost.
Maybe I need to get arrested.
I mean, that might be it.
You know, maybe you got a hog we can kill, anyways.
That was my story how I got arrested at the Sam Pearl.
I don't know where we were going.
Well, Sam Pearl is where that FBI sting was.
Okay, was that was the FBI sting that boy?
I can't wait to get that footage.
I'm having to sue the FBI now for that footage, they won't give it to me because there's a whole big story as to why they won't give it to me.
And I can't, I mean, it's like involving you should make this part of the documentary trying to sue the FBI.
Yeah, we are.
Okay, and the reason why you want to hear you want something to blow your mind?
What do you know why?
They didn't prosecute Michael Keith Davidson.
Do you know why?
Is he the broker?
He's the broker.
So they didn't file charges, but they had a window of opportunity, a window of statute of limitations where they could still, you know, anytime that they don't press charges on you, until your statute of limitations runs out, they can always come back to you and be like, you know, motherfucker, we've revisited that and we're going to go ahead, you know, like until your statute of limitations run out, they can always come back and get you.
It's been told to me that the reason why they didn't, they're not giving me the tape is because Keith Davidson was Michael Cohen's hitman.
Michael Cohen was Donald Trump's personal attorney.
And when Donald Trump cut all these deals with these girls to keep their mouths shut, the Stormy Daniels, the other ones, Michael Cohen used Keith Davidson to broker these deals.
So when the FBI went to Michael Cohen to get his correspondence with Keith Davidson so that they could prove Donald Trump, because remember the FBI, when Trump was in office, even though Trump was the president, the FBI was bound and determined to fuck with Trump nonstop from the Russian collusion deal to all the fucking shit.
So the FBI went to Keith Davidson and said, if you don't give us all of your correspondence with Michael Cohen, we're going to reopen up the Hogan extortion deal.
That's how they got into Michael Cohen's computer and he went to prison.
No fucking way.
Over strong arming Keith Davidson and potentially recharging him with the crime of the sex tape.
And that's going to be in my documentary.
No fucking way.
It's crazy how big of a deal that Hogan sex tape was, man.
That was like a nuclear bomb.
I'm living it.
I'm living it.
The largest civil verdict in Pinellas County.
You know, listen to this.
You want me to be a real motherfucker?
If you think about this, I probably should be recognized in Hollywood as the highest grossing producer of all time.
My minute and 41 second tape made a million dollars a second.
It was a minute 41.
That's pretty crazy.
It was a minute 41 and it made $141 million.
That's a million.
You tell me Scorsese, fucking Lucas, these people that did Star, they don't make a million a second.
That's true.
That's fucking true.
The highest profiting film in history.
Highest Grossing Producer Ever00:02:56
And I owned it.
And guess what?
I wanted so much not to do with that sex tape that when it started getting shitty, I signed my rights over to Hogan and said, I don't want any, listen, Terry, I don't want anything to do with this.
Like, I so want to not, this is so not me.
Here, I signed, that's probably the biggest mistake I made.
I signed the rights over to him.
I said, here.
Because you wanted to maintain the friendship first.
I wanted the friendship in my job and my innocence.
I mean, if I was guilty, I would have said, fuck that.
I want to keep, I'm going to fucking milk this out.
If truly I taped it, for profit reasons, why would I have signed over the rights within days over to him?
Why would I have done that?
Right.
That's the biggest mistake I should have said, fuck it.
I'll be the bad guy, but I'm going to get paid.
Right.
Yeah, you should have been cutthroat.
Cutthroat fucking.
Yeah.
Cutthroat Clem.
Cutthroat Clem.
And now I'm fucking practically homeless, Clem.
Say it.
Oh, my God.
So.
Have you guys maintained any.
Have you guys.
No.
You guys don't talk at all?
No.
No.
And I've reached out to him.
He won't.
He fucking won.
I mean, like, no.
Really?
Mm-mm.
Nope.
And it's just like, you know, and he knows that I didn't do it.
Right.
Like, he knows that I didn't do it.
But in order to maintain public, like, if he becomes my friend again, then what's the first thing the public's going to say?
Those motherfuckers were in on it.
Are they not?
Yeah, you're right.
They're going to say, like, oh, now they're friends.
That's convenient.
Yeah.
So I can't win.
I can't win.
And again, I don't want anybody to watch this and think that I'm over here fucking belly aching.
I've led a good life.
I've fucking made a lot of mistakes.
I've mismanaged my money.
I lost it all.
I mean, that's kind of the template of the concrete podcast about, you know, like look at the guy that was counterfeiting.
If that motherfucker just would have been a little smarter, not been so greedy, he probably would have been in better shape.
Same with me.
I just didn't go to prison.
If I would have backed it down a notch, been a little more humble, realized what I had, I don't know.
I don't know.
A lot of the best stories have the fucking epic downfall.
I know.
And they rise from the ashes.
And I'm going to rise.
I'm going to rise.
I'm going.
I mean, I almost got my, you know, I, think maybe with people like you and your help and the motherfucker behind the screen over there, Jim, whatever his name is.
Jim Bob.
Jim Bob, Polish Jew.
Jim Bob McGillicuddy.
Jim Bob McGillicuddy.
Johnny Wright Clicker.
Look at him.
He's a clicking motherfucker.
Look at him.
Look at Johnny Wright Clicker.
Johnny Wright Clicker's on it.
He's got carpal tunnel in that right hand.
Calvin Carpal.
Look at my man over there.
Hitting switches like a motherfucker.
But, you know, I think I'm a likable.
I think I have a huge brand that people know.
YouTube Suspension For Doctors00:08:32
I think if you don't know me, if you spend any time watching me or listening to me, you can see that I'm just kind of a regular dude.
And, you know, I think I'm going to get, honest to God, Danny, I think I'm going to get one more shot at it.
I think I'm going to get one more shot at it because there's just not a lot of compelling people out there.
No.
Most everything on the internet or on the radio sucks.
It's fucking horrible.
It's true.
It's fucking horrible.
It's true.
Regular radio has killed itself.
Regular radio should have been developing guys like Joe Rogan and you and not fucking kicking me out and not turned into a jukebox with $30,000 a year fucking radio personalities going, oh, that was a tool followed by Red Hot Chili Peppers coming up here on 97 Yupo.
Cloudy skies today, low tonight, 74.
Tomorrow's high, 92.
I've got to check in with traffic right now.
And then after that, 42 minutes of commercials and then another one from Red Hot Chili Peppers on the new 97 Yupo.
That's how it is.
There's nobody under saying, hey, this is Bubba Love Sponge, and I got two chicks right now, Howard Franklin, that are making out topless, and there's a fucking car, and they're coming to the station, and I'm going to have them shoot ping pong balls out of certain pieces of parts.
Right.
So, regular radio has thrown off all of its real talent.
Joe Rogan would have been just as popular on KLSX in Los Angeles, but radio stations would be like, what if I fucking.
long-form talk radio.
Was he doing his podcast?
When he came on your show, was he doing his podcast already?
Had just started and here's what the dude was like a fucking encyclopedia talking about things.
Right.
But in 08, I had him on the show, which I need to repurpose that video because I think you could help me with it.
But he took me aside and when I walked him out, he goes, dude, you got SiriusXM.
You got millions of people listening.
And I contractually could have done, you know, like when I was on Sirius XM, I was also doing terrestrial radio.
I got to the radio station at five in the morning and didn't get home till eight at night because I was doing two shows a day, I was doing terrestrial mornings and then afternoon satellite.
So I could.
What does terrestrial mean?
Regular radio.
Regular, okay.
Like the Bone, 98 Robot, things like that.
So I was doing that and then doing a standalone exclusive show for Sirius.
So I was doing eight, nine hours of radio a day.
But Joe was at that point saying, man, after your second show, get the boys together and just bullshit for an hour about anything and put it up as a podcast.
And I was like, oh, Joe, fuck that podcast.
I used to call it Podcast Willie.
What am I, a podcast willy guy now?
Are you fucking kidding me?
It's what I'm regulating on down to.
Where Howard shits on him all the time, too.
Oh, yeah.
Well, he's been shitting on Joe for when the pod, the whole podcast thing for years.
And, you know, Howard and I are still really close.
Are you really?
I just got a birthday card from him handwritten.
When was your birthday?
April 23rd.
No way.
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
Same day William Shakespeare and John Cena are born.
Well, but basically the same people.
Howard shits on podcasting because he's kicking himself in the ass for not doing it when he should, just like I. You know, like anybody that shits on podcasting doesn't eat, kind of is kicking themselves in the ass that they know they should be doing it.
You know what I'm saying?
Big name people.
I mean, there's just no downside not to do it.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, it's an easy setup.
Yeah.
You know, and if you're compelling, you can make a difference.
I find it fascinating that Howard hasn't been on Joe's show.
Well, I've been on the Joe's show.
I'm going to be on the Joe's show.
Oh, are you?
I'm just waiting until my documentary comes out.
because I want that one shot.
Joe's not going to have me on as a regular guest, but I can make a phone call and get on.
So I'm waiting.
Joe, yeah.
Can I do the show?
Sure.
I want to have that one thing that I'm heavily promoting.
By the way, your people can come look at my.
How should we promote my shit?
I just go to my YouTube channel, I guess.
Your YouTube channel and you have a Twitch.
They got to subscribe to you on Twitch.
Everything in my world is at The Bubba Army.
The Bubba Armor.
Have you been banned from Twitter?
Yes.
Yes.
Do you know why?
See, no, why?
Remember that global warming bitch that, how dare you?
How dare you?
That bitch, that 14-year-old bitch.
No, no.
So I got on the air.
I had like 119,000, 131,000 followers on Twitter, and that's currency, man.
I mean, that's worth something, you know, I mean, to promote your other shit.
And so I got on the air, and I'll be like, I was like, this 14 year old bitch needs to be in school, first of all.
And then I just kept saying, shut up, little kid.
And she would be like, how dare you?
I'd just be like, shut up, little kid.
You know, shut up, you little bitch.
You know, like, you know, like, like, shut up.
Who are you to, you know, the carbon footprint you made to get to this summit, you know, the private plane that you took and the, you know, is far more.
No, she sailed a sailboat, didn't she?
Well, whatever, the fucking bitch.
Shut up.
Get shut the fuck up, you little bitch.
And that got me thrown off.
No fucking way.
Yeah.
Maybe that now that Elyon's got it, I can get it back.
I don't know.
You think that might happen?
I don't know.
I don't know.
See, that's the problem though.
Social media has been like a great new microphone for all these people who don't have to worry about gatekeepers.
If you have talent, you can fucking, you can, the best talent rises at the top on social media.
But the downside of that is, like you were saying, you were the one that always pushed the limits, didn't mind, didn't care about getting fucking fined or didn't care about keeping your little cushy job.
But now on the internet, just even on YouTube, If you go too far, just my last fucking podcast talking about some fucking Bill Gates conspiracy theory got my fucking, the podcast demonetized.
I can't make money on that episode.
Let me tell you something.
You want to hear this?
Oh, I'm the king of getting demonetized on that shit.
I mean.
Oh, Twitch is the worst, right?
Well, I've learned Twitch's game.
I've learned Twitch's game.
But YouTube, let me tell you something.
One of my co-hosts on my show is Dr. Dan Diaco.
He's a doctor.
And early on during the COVID deal, Dan aggressively treated COVID with the IV Mectrin, you know, the horse D-worm gimmick.
He did.
And he had 200 patients that he saw.
And out of 200, all 200 got better.
So here's a doctor.
Here's a doctor.
And he gets on the air.
This is early on.
Yeah, but isn't he just a fucking tit job doctor?
Yeah, he is.
But he's still a doctor.
I mean, you're not prescribing a control.
Like he's not prescribing Percocets or, you know, Vicodin.
So as a doctor, you can pretty much prescribe anything as long as it's not a scheduled narcotic.
Right, right.
And, you know, antibiotics.
Like Dr. Dan, if I get a cold or he'll prescribe me some antibiotics, nobody's going to.
Right, exactly.
Where you're going to go to jail because you prescribed some emoxicillin, motherfucker.
Right, right, right.
Pill mill, motherfucker.
So he was aggressively, he came from the school where he thought he had a little cocktail, zinc, vitamin B, ivermectin, deoxycycline with an inhaler kind of deal.
Did you do the drip, like the vitamin drip deal?
Nope, nope.
Just all, you know, things that you could go to Publix and get with a prescription.
Well, he was on my show.
And so as a doctor, this wasn't his opinion.
He was giving non HIPAA violations, meaning he wasn't given any names of his patients, but he was saying, Hey, I have X amount of patients that I've treated as a doctor myself, and here's the results.
Here's what's happened.
Here's what's this is how I treat them.
Here's, you know, because it went against WHO guidelines that YouTube suspended me for a week by having a real doctor, not some motherfucker off the streets, a real doctor talk about his real patients and how he's really treating them because it went against the You know, you have to get vaccinated, two shots in the fucking arm.
I got suspended for YouTube from YouTube for a week.
That has happened to lots of doctors for doing that.
And that scares the fuck out of me.
Altering Truth And Free Speech00:06:35
And so, like, okay, if it's their opinion, I get it.
But if they're giving you real life statistics of their patients, then at that point, you're altering truth.
You're trying to quell truth and free speech.
I'll tell you what scares me more than anything is this fucking quack job that they just put in for the disinformation kind of bullshit.
Oh my God.
I mean, what the fuck is happening?
I mean, they did that right after Elon put in the bid to buy it, to buy Twitter.
Right.
Now, okay, let's say Joe Biden is just hell bent on having this bureau, which I think this bureau is about as dumb as a fucking bureau as you could come up with.
But let's just say that you got to have it.
I'm Joe Biden.
I shit my pants at noon.
I eat oatmeal.
I'm bold as fuck.
I don't know what I'm doing.
And I think that, you know, to counter the Elon Musk deal, we're going to have our own bureau of misinformation.
Okay.
I don't think it's smart.
But wouldn't you go out and get a real sharp motherfucker like Ben Shapiro or.
A real smart guy that's really buttoned up and knows his shit to run it, not some fucking bitch that just does TikTok Mary Poppins bullshit.
Like, Joe, we don't think you should do the bureau, but if you're gonna, let's find some motherfucker from Harvard that really's got his shit together that really comes across well on camera, but not some Mary Poppins bitch.
But somebody who's actually smart, who went to Harvard, who actually does make sense and is coherent, can communicate.
Those type of people, they don't fucking want to be in politics.
Right.
Those types of people would say, Joe, fuck you.
Exactly.
This is the slipperiest slope ever.
I'm not doing it.
Right.
So they had to get to Mary Poppins, bitch, to even hard sell the fucking stupid job to him.
Right.
Hey, we want you to go find out what they're saying about it.
And then if it's misinformation, possibly get that person thrown off that platform.
I mean, that's where we're headed.
Right.
But what the fuck?
How stupid is it, though?
You create this misinformation gimmick, whatever it is.
And then in a couple of years, say Trump becomes president again.
Or whoever.
Well, now the fucking Trump's.
Gang is in charge of that.
No, I think Trump would just say fuck.
You think he would just do that?
Yeah.
I mean, what if it wasn't Trump?
What if it was some other fucking Democrat?
What if it was a Republican, a hardcore Republican who was like right down Republican lines, who decided he wants to go anti everything Democrat?
Well, then now you just fucked yourself because now you created this fucking mechanism that any power can control once they're in office.
Yeah, but you can also get rid of it.
Like, I mean, it's not, you know.
But they never have done that.
They've never gotten rid of power.
Once you have that power, they never give rights back.
Right.
They never give them back.
They take an inch by inch by inch by inch.
So you're right.
This bureau in itself could create a fucking monster.
Yeah.
What the fuck is this?
That's Anita Jankowicz.
Did you see the TikTok video she did?
No.
You did it?
No.
She's the leader of TikTok.
Oh my God.
Can you pull up the TikTok video he's talking about?
Can Calvin right hand clicker pull it up?
Because when you hear it.
Let's see how fast it's, how long it takes him.
Oh yeah, let's see how good he is.
TikTok's too hard.
Is that what he said?
TikTok's too hard.
Hold on.
Jankowicz.
During the presidential prediction.
As mad as you are now, you are going to be.
You're gonna be fucking speechless when you hear her ticked.
She did a tick tock video of her new job.
She did a tick tock video of her new job.
So, now here's a motherfucker that you're putting in charge of a major bureau within Homeland Security, right?
Now, I don't think that motherfucker that you just needs to be doing tick tock videos about, like, I just think that Joe should have maybe watched this video before putting this bitch in charge saying, This is what this is who we're fucking putting in here.
Like, this is bad.
If Calvin, the right-hand clicker, can come find this.
Can he find this?
That's the question.
Can Calvin find the fucking.
Calvin, all you got to do is this thing called Google and type in Nina Jankowicz's TikTok stupid fucking video and then hit the click button.
It can't be that hard.
I mean, TikTok works on regular browsers, doesn't it?
Yeah.
But we are in a fucking AC automotive shop.
So it could be.
We are in.
It's hot as fucking here.
He's hot.
We could be on with AOL 2400 baud right now.
Like, could be.
I thought you guys would have 1K up in this bitch.
Was 1k like what like like your upload download deal?
Oh no, we got fucking we're slow me we're slow as fuck over here.
So here we go.
Here we go.
Oh yeah, hold on before Calvin before you play it.
Hang on, we got that turn that ad we need the ad blocker.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So hold on, not that one.
Yeah, right there, Calvin Calvin the clicker, clicker.
Hey, stop, Danny, prepare.
Oh my god, this is the this is the that's now running.
A bureau within Homeland Security and has the ability to listen to the concrete motherfucking podcast and say that there's a lot of misinformation coming out of this shit and we're going to shut you down.
This bitch.
Jesus.
This bitch.
I'm terrified.
You know what?
It's going to make you want to go out and us try heroin for the first time after this, okay?
Watch this.
For real.
You're going to be blown fucking away.
Here we go.
When a hoax detects some lies and makes them sound precocious by saying them in Congress or a mainstream outlet, so disinformation's origins are slightly less atrocious.
It's how you hide a little idle lie.
It's how you hide a little idle lie.
It's how you hide a little idle lie when Rudy Giuliani shared that in town from Ukraine.
Or when TikTok influencers say COVID can cause pain.
They're laundering to sinful when we really should take note and not support their lies with our wallet, voice or vote.
Oh, information laundering is really quite ferocious.
It's when a huckster takes the lies and makes them sound precocious by saying them in Congress or a mainstream outlet.
So, yes, information's origin seems slightly less atrocious.
Hey, this is why the aliens won't come.
You shoot me first and I'll shoot you second or however it goes.
Double suicide.
Some kind of bull.
What the fuck is this world we're living in?
For real.
What?
You know what this all started with?
That's so embarrassing.
You know what this all started with?
Hand gel and participation trophies.
Yeah.
Remember that doting little mom that fucking had a hand gel little Johnny anytime you went anywhere?
When you went to the West Shore Mall and you were fucking playing on the machine, he had a hand gel and he had a hand gel and he had a hand gel.
Sanitizing.
Sanitize and then.
Hand Gel And Participation Trophies00:04:05
Fucking the guy, the little league team that was 0 and 9, they got a trophy, just like the who went 9 and 0.
That's the society that were.
Those are now turning into leaders and heads of bureaus and we're we're, and you know what?
They're not even giving us any anal ease.
We're dry.
Yeah, they're fucking us dry, and fucking dry is not cool.
You're fucking, but it hurts.
Yeah, that's fucking terrifying that.
That Danny, I gotta take.
I gotta take a hit of this.
I mean too, let me get a hit.
That is a bitch that is running a bureau that can shut concrete McGillicuddy right down to zero.
Calvin, right hand clicker.
Good job, buddy.
It's fucking scary.
You got to give the guy a bone when he's fucking pulled.
We got to throw him a bone with the Birkenstocks.
Look at those Birkenstocks.
Is he Johnny Birkenstocks?
He is Johnny Birkenstocks.
Hey, I turned into Johnny Hey Dudes.
You got a pair of Hey Dudes?
No.
Don't tell me that a 56 year old man's cooler than you.
What the fuck are the Hey Dudes?
They're the cool shoes that the Fucking kids are wearing those the ones where the fucking they're like gloves on your toes.
No, no, no, that's okay.
Like body glove bullshit.
You're living back, yeah.
What are the hey dudes, Calvin?
Pull up the fucking hey dudes.
And first of all, Birkenstocks are what the people in the villages wear, Calvin.
Motherfucking hey dudes are what the young kids are wearing.
He backpacks across Spain in those things.

He traveled more in the last year than I've traveled my entire life, right?
Hold on, those motherfuckers, they're 59.
Danny, they look coaching.
Danny, they are fucking game changers.
The Wally Funk, hey dudes.

But those are the most comfortable shoes.
You can wear them with or without socks.
And they are the most comfortable shoes.
They're as light as air.
Calvin, show like they got different kind of.
Um, stock your black, I like the black ones, and you don't tie them, you don't have to lace them up, you just slip them on, huh?
You taking a shit on them, Danny?
Or you like them?
No, no, no, I can't shit on them until I try them.
You can't, no, they look, they do look fucking comfortable.
No, they are so you gotta get a pair of hey dudes, okay?
What are you wearing?
I'm wearing the vans, the old schools, yeah.
I wore my boots today, oh, those are sweet, those are sick, those are what Matt Cox wears.
Well, you know why, don't you?
Because of you.
No, because it gives you an extra inch and a half.
That is why.
Holy fuck.
There is like two inches of fucking sole in there.
Hold on.
With an insert, Willie.
Hold on, buddy.
Look.

Do me a favor.
Oh, you do have the fucking insert, Willie.
Look at that.

All right.
Put those on once.
All right.
Okay.

Oh, Matt won't even need the surgery after these.
No!
Holy shit.
Those are Georgia boots.
They're the best.
They're badass boots.
And they're slip ons.
They're slip ons.
And you get the inserts for your arch.
And you're fucking, you know, my 5'10 ass is almost six motherfucking foot.
Wow.
Yeah.
Those are great.
I've been meaning to get myself a pair of boots, too.
Georgia boots.
Georgia boots.
On Amazon.
Okay.
And then you get.
The ins, like the, from the, like the foot, the, what is that foot?
What is that place called?
Johnny Depp Painted In Corner00:12:07
God damn it.
Foot stores?
Happy Feet.
Happy Feet.
That's where you buy those.
Yeah.
Yes.
And you go in there and you stand on a machine and it tells you, like, what your arch, what kind of arch support.
But they're an insert.
And so you get an extra.
That fucking red.
Do you shove the inserts in the cool dudes?
No.
Okay.
No.
Okay.
No.
Cool dudes are like, just like if you're going to, like, Like a Sunday brunch or to the beach, to the beach, that's what I was riding your bike, yeah, yeah, you know, going out and get to mayo or some bullshit like that, yeah.
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta teach you up on you got a lot of old timer tricks, yeah, old timer.
I appreciate the old timer tricks.
I really learned, I've learned a lot here today.
What the, uh, yeah, man, this, uh, this hey dude, this Jankowitz is freaky.
It's, it's, let's not even go down that rabbit hole, it's so up, but it is up, but the most, like I said, it scares the out of me because these companies, like, picture, um.
Calvin, see if you can pull up her official.
Is she hot?
No.
No.
She looks like, what do you think about the Jensaki bitch?
Who's that bitch?
She's the one who talks.
She's the redheaded bitch who stands in front of the podium.
Oh, she just got fired.
Oh, did she really?
Yeah.
I don't like her.
I don't like gingers.
You can't trust a ginger.
No, you can't.
No.
Uh-uh.
Gingers are soulless.
Yeah.
You think all of them are soulless?
They're hot.
They're good in bed.
Are they really?
Yeah.
Oh, this is the new bitch.
No, no, no.
Who is this?
Oh, this is Jankowitz.
Yeah, but she's got her U.S. Her right there by the flag.
This is her official U.S. picture.
No, oh my god, they got the fucking you had it there earlier, Calvin.
Click back one.
She's got the Twitter profile.
Let me guess.
Oh, yep, she got the Ukrainian flag right there.
No, her official U.S. right there, right down one down one right there.
I think this is her official.
Okay, like White House picture.
Yikes.
Oh, you might not show it.
Does she have her pronouns?
Now I got the hey dude ads.
Does she have the pronouns on her Twitter bio?
That's what I care about.
Go to her Twitter bio.
Oh, Austin.
Top right.
Is Austin's name now just going to be Calvin?
Just out of nowhere.
I think so.
I do too.
I think we should change it to Calvin.
Calvin the right hand clicker.
Calvin the right hand clicker.
Hey, you dirty clicker.
Fucking dirty clicker.
Have you watched any of the fucking Johnny Depp deal?
Oh, yeah.
He's fucked himself.
You think?
I think she came across far more believable.
I think he, you know what?
You know what?
This was Bubba vs. MJ.
MJ lost when he sued me because he was such an actor.
I went on the, I got in front of the jury and said, yeah, I did it.
Yeah, I called him that.
Yep.
I did.
Under free speech.
He's a public figure.
And, you know, MJ was like, you know, try to get into character.
And I think Johnny Depp's acting too much.
I think he's coming across way too melodramatic.
I think she's, you know, and I don't know.
What do you think about it?
I think Johnny, I think I don't see any way that she would win this.
He's the one suing her, right?
Yeah, but she countersued him for double.
So he sued her for 50.
And she said, let me give you the good news.
I'm going to countersue you for 100.
Here's the problem she's not collectible.
He is.
Right.
So here's what the jury's going to do.
Well, nobody really wins, right?
Well, here's what the jury's going to do.
Both of you motherfuckers get zero.
Just go on.
It's just, that's what's probably going to happen.
Yeah.
I think.
But I mean, there's been.
I would fuck her, though.
She's hot.
She is fucking hot, isn't she?
I love my favorite.
Elon Musk blasted her.
What?
Yes, she used to fuck Musk.
I thought it was Franco and Billy Bob.
No, she fucked Elon Musk.
Check that out, Wayne.
Calvin the right hand dirty guy.
Wow, that bitch has fucking been around.
She's been around.
She is hot, though.
She is hot.
Johnny Depp's just hot.
Johnny Depp didn't do shit.
Well, I don't think he did anything bad.
Do you?
I think if you listen to it, he's fucking.
I mean, it is fucking.
It's hilarious when he's up there.
You have to admit it.
He is funny as shit.
I know.
He's like, yeah, I was doing some cocaine.
Me and Marilyn Manton did some cocaine.
Yeah, I gave him a pill to shut him up.
Yeah.
What do you think that pill was?
What a pill to give Marilyn Manton on your show?
I know Marilyn.
I know Brian.
Do you fucking really?
I have an autographed guitar from him.
No fucking way.
Bro, you have got to come to my studios and see my guitar collection.
Just my guitar collection alone would blow you away.
I have to come.
I got BB King.
I got Meatloaf.
I got Journey.
I got Aerosmith.
I got Loverboy.
I got fucking Kid Rock.
I got Slash.
I got fucking.
Metallica, you know.
I talked to him via email a couple months ago and he promised that he would do the show after he's through with the lawsuit bullshit.
Right.
Yeah.
I met him again three October's ago when he did a show at the Hard Rock.
I went over and saw him and got a hold of his management and stuff.
And it was this big meet and greet they had, a line from here to wherever.
And they fucking paraded me right in.
Really?
And he sat down and Talked to me for like five or ten minutes because he'd been on the show back in the day.
And back when we had 98 Rock Livestock, he did a couple of them for us.
Um, and uh, he was fucking, he didn't have his makeup on or nothing.
He was just regular.
He puts on a hell of a show too.
He's a good guy.
He's a smart fucking guy.
Very smart.
Very.
His Columbine interviews when Columbine happened, and they're asking him, like, what would you say to those kids if they were here right now?
He's like, I wouldn't say a fucking thing to them.
I would listen to what they had to say.
Right.
That's what no one did.
He's kind of been really painted into a fucked up corner.
He really has, you know, because realistically, I don't give a fuck what he sings about.
I don't give a fuck what it's his right to, I mean, right?
I mean, like, you know, they, a lot of people get on him because of his, you know, the dope show.
Like, a lot of his songs are controversial.
And what, who can, that's art.
That's art.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, I don't think he never really, like, properly got canceled or had his career hurt as bad as it has been with the Evan Rachel Wood thing, saying that she, she sexually abused him and enslaved her and groomed her.
But you're fucking 18 years old and you're getting into bed with this guy.
I mean, don't you sort of have some sort of responsibility?
Here's the deal it's open season on white men.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bill Cosby's free.
I mean, it's open.
Hold on.
Jesse Smollett didn't do shit.
They didn't fucking really.
I mean, what did he get?
Right.
How about that dude who just fucking tackled Dave Chappelle and didn't even get charged with anything?
It's open season on white guys.
That's weird.
It's true.
I mean, Brian's on the verge of probably getting canceled for.
All of that, but that's not any and and you can't.
I mean, look at Bill.
I mean what Marilyn Manson did uh, was wrong, but it wasn't to the level of what Cosby did.
No, it wasn't to the level of what Chris Brown did.
How many times did they let Chris Brown out for beating the out of people, right?
I mean, you know I, this whole rock star.
Look at Ron Jeremy.
Ron Jeremy's going to be in the prison for the rest of his life.
Is he already in there?
Oh, yeah, he's in there.
Oh, my God.
You know what?
Looking for, I need you to help me because I have a pot.
I have a YouTube video of when he was in my show in like '09 with Dennis Hoff from the Bunny Ranch, admitting to how he gets this, how he goes to these nights.
We're like, Hey, uh, uh, Ron Jeremy, how do you like in LA?
How do you get pussy?
And he goes, Well, I'll tell you how you do it.
I go down to the comedy club and I get a couple chicks, I tell them who I am, I take them to the bathroom and fuck them.
What and it's exactly what they're trying him on.
And I have the podcast.
No, I mean, I have the video.
Yeah, I need to, you need to show me how to do this, buddy.
I wonder what it was like for that motherfucker back in his heyday when he was like right in the middle of it.
When you're a porn star, it can't be that.
I mean, I wonder if it would be like porn stars aren't near as cool as rock stars.
That's true.
That's who gets the pussy.
That's true.
I mean, I've seen it firsthand.
I mean, I have fucking seen it firsthand.
You know, back in the 98 rock days when we had livestock and we would, you know, all be back in the back, little backstage area and we all, and Motley Crue was there and Kid Rock was there and.
Creed was there, and you know, three doors down, and you just see how the groupie world works.
And it literally, they just they just fuck all day.
It's just literally fuck and get high all day.
That's such a fucking incredible life.
Oh, could you do a mat like that?
What is this?
Here, how it goes.
They get up at noon, everything's catered for them.
This is if they're on the bus, everything's catered for them.
They get high, they do their coke, they do whatever the fuck they need to do.
Nobody, everybody leaves them alone.
And then they have, you know, like you know, five or six Calvins.
That are out scouring the campgrounds and stuff for just nothing but straight hot bitches.
And they go up to this hot bitch and say, Hey, you want to go hang out with Motley Crue?
And they're like, Fuck yeah.
Sorry, your boyfriend can't come along.
Next thing you know, they're on the bus and they're literally getting fucking railed by all the boys.
Just straight getting fucking railed.
And then the band tells them, Hey, after the show, come back over.
We'll do some fucking Coke and fuck again.
And they load their bus up and go over to Orlando and do a show over there and repeat.
God damn it.
Rinse, repeat.
God damn, man.
You know what I think about?
I think about a lot.
Like, I know a lot of people who are young, who are like Tfue, for example, who just came across all this fucking money and famous situations.
But he can't rock star it, can he?
Oh, fuck yeah.
He can fucking rock star it.
Really?
Oh, fuck.
I mean, are girls still rock starring?
I mean, look, he doesn't walk out in the public.
It's not like he's like walking around and gets like mobbed.
He's not like that kind of a figure, but it's more like social media.
Just so many fucking horny bitches in his DMs all day, every fucking day.
It's just fucking shooting fish in a barrel.
Right.
And he does.
Anything he fucking kids got the world at his fingertips, but when I think about people his age, when you get that kind of fucking money and fame and popularity, and just when you can get anything you fucking want, I think it fucks with you at that young of an age.
It does, it does.
If it, it, I'm fucked up and I had it on such a micro level than they do, you know, I had it on a local, somewhat of a global level when I was with Howard, but it, it, it, it makes you so calloused in life.
About what turns you on now.
Right.
Like, what, you know, like, honest to God, if I, if, if there was two hot girls, two super hot chicks right now on that couch, eating each other's pussy, going crazy, probably you and Calvin would be like, holy shit, you know, and I'm not trying to call you guys, you know, like inexperienced nerds or nothing, but I mean, you haven't seen a lot of that probably.
And they were just going crazy.
They were dildoing and fucking going crazy.
That was a Tuesday for me.
That's so.
And so it would have to be so much.
Elevated for me to be, you know, because I've seen so much.
Because I've lived, you know, a bunch of different lives.
I was the host of a really popular global radio show that brought a bunch of money and a bunch of fame and a bunch of bitches.
I've been friends with a lot of really, really high-profile people, so I lived that fringe of a life.
Then I've had on my show huge, from O.J. Simpson to Motley Crue to Bill Cosby.
I've had those people that in some instances were in studio and we became friendly and I hung out with them privately.
So I've kind of been, you know, in that world on a different, a couple different, one, I've lived a little bit of it, but I've also seen a lot of it as well or been the guest of it.
And it's, you know, God, but it's changed.
I mean, it's like you can't run bitches the way you used to run bitches.
What do you mean?
Fame Money Changed The Game00:15:11
Well, I mean, back in the day, they didn't have phones.
They didn't have, you know, if you get a girl now, if you're a rock star now and you're fucking a girl backstage and she snaps a picture or something like that, I mean, you're fucked.
Right.
You're fucked.
You know, back in the day, you could just be, you know, worry about her posting, Hey, I just left, you know, fucking such and, you know, Tfue's, you know, hotel room and here's a picture of his car as she's leaving.
Like, I mean, now, I mean, you gotta, I don't even know how those guys do it now.
You have to probably have them sign NDAs the minute they walk in.
Oh, yeah.
Right?
I've heard stories about that.
I've heard stories about like NBA player, like fucking NBA player life behind closed doors, how they had those parties where all the girls have to sign NDAs.
I knew a couple girls that used to fuck athletes back about five years ago.
And they had to sign an NDA and put their cell phone in there, like in the.
Like those little Yoder bags at the comedy shows?
Yes.
In that, or in the refrigerator, or something like that, and sign an NDA with the picture of their driver's license before they could get into doing what they were going to do, which is fuck.
Right, right, right.
So, yeah.
I think there's no possible way in hell LeBron James has been faithful to his wife.
Oh, no way.
I used to hang out with a guy that played for the Lakers.
His name was Tony Smith.
And he was there from like 90.
He was from Marquette.
And he was a second string guard.
And I met him in Milwaukee when I was in Milwaukee.
And then I came to Tampa and he was still playing for the Lakers.
I think he played in the league like eight or nine years.
And he, when he would come and play, like when the Lakers play in this area, usually the NBA routes them for like, they'll play Atlanta, Orlando, the Heat, Charlotte.
They kind of route them that way, you know?
So Randy Fund was the coach, and I took three or four days off the power pig as a vacation because Tony Smith called me and said, hey, why don't you meet me in Orlando?
Have a friend drive you over to Orlando.
And then, and this is what, this is like 1993.
And I got pictures of me and James Worthy and Vladdy Devok and all these guys, Anthony Peeler.
And so I kind of got a three-day, look at the NBA life.
And so I got driven over to Orlando.
Tony had a suite, like a two adjoining, like not a suite, but a room that adjoined onto another room.
So I had my own bedroom.
So he got in, he checked in the hotel room.
They got in like around, you know, noon.
They had shoot around.
The team had a shoot around like at three or something.
And then they played, and so they went back, and I got to go to all this.
And then they had the game like at seven.
So they went back to the hotel room, a little catered deal, and they all ate.
And took a nap and shit.
And then they went and played the game.
And so I had players ticking to my butt.
Well, then the fun begins because they spent the night in Orlando because the next game was in Miami the next day.
So they just stayed in Orlando.
Well, they all, everyone, every player has a black book at that point of every girl in town that they have either fucked or hooked up with.
And they call them all to the lobby.
And then they just go down to the lobby and pick who they want.
They fuck them.
You know, they go crazy.
Well, Tony was already working on the girls in Miami.
A day before.
So Orlando goes.
So we get on the team plane.
I get to fly with them.
Well, there's only like 15 guys on the team, and with superb, you know, there's probably 30 total people that travel.
So they had a chartered, they chartered like a, they didn't have their own Lakers plane back then.
They would just charter like a Delta deal.
But, you know, they had a ton of, so the players could bring friends and stuff as long as you were cool.
So they flew into Miami and they just did the same thing, had a whole list of chicks.
Fuck them.
And then Tony was working on the Atlanta girls and the Charlotte girls.
And that's how it goes.
Every night there would be two or three different girls.
And the game was just something they had to play the game.
But the game was fucking.
That's fucking crazy, man.
The game was fucking.
And every one of them did it.
Every one of them did it.
Fucking crazy.
It all just boils down to fucking fame and money.
Everything boils down to fame and money.
That's what it's all about.
It's fucking bananas, man.
And now you can get fame and money so much differently than you used to.
Let's refer back to Tfue.
Back in the day, to a guy that played video games, would you ever be able to attain the level of Tfue?
And I'm saying this, like, I have so much respect for this dude.
Oh, yeah.
Like, I got nothing but love for this motherfucker.
This guy's the man, right?
But it's so cool now that fame and money used to just be either you inherited it.
Your family had it.
You were an athlete.
You were a rock star, an entrepreneur, a highly educated businessman that invented something.
Like there was only a little bit of a pie on how to get.
But now, with the advent of what you're doing and what Tfue does and gaming and TikToking and shit, fame and money can be for the average person.
It used to be you had to be a mega star that was indoctrined into fame or money.
You were a Rockefeller.
You were the this or that.
Not anymore.
It's the Wild West.
It really is.
But there's so much shit out there that you have to be able to rise above the top in order to get noticed.
And you got a great foothold and a great start on it.
You know, the funny thing about- You might be more famous and have more money than me someday.
Probably already do.
I don't know.
I doubt that.
I highly doubt that.
Fuck.
Anyways, the thing about Tfue, it's just so fascinating, is that people jump on the bandwagon with things, right?
Like I jumped on- I wasn't doing podcasts before.
I started this podcast like two and a half years ago.
Three years ago, maybe.
And I did it because it was already a thing that was starting to gain momentum.
Like, maybe I should try doing this.
My whole thing, my whole view on this podcast is like, I came from the documentary world.
So this is like, I can do a documentary a week, but there's no B roll, there's no music cut into it.
So that's how I think about this.
But I did kind of jump on a bandwagon.
Turner, Tfue, he was playing fucking video games when it was not cool, when there was no money, when his brother was fucking getting rich, making all these prank videos, right next door, living in the fucking room next to him.
And Tfue wouldn't go.
Participate in all these videos and try to ride his brother's coattails.
He was in his room by himself playing fucking video games, not getting any pussy.
Right.
And then all of a sudden.
The Juke Squad, Dr. Kelly.
Exactly.
And then in one month, he fucking skyrocketed a million times fucking higher than his brother.
Yeah.
Like, there's something to say about sticking to something even when it's not going good and no one else is doing it.
Well, you're a prime example of that as well.
I mean, you don't have 500,000 subscribers because you quit, you don't have 500,000 subscribers because you don't have any talent.
You don't have 500,000 subscribers because you don't have interesting people.
I mean, I got people in radio that have been in radio a long time that are big-time fans of your podcast because it's good shit.
I mean, off the top of my head, I can tell you, you know, three or four of the things.
I mean, the counterfeiter guy, the Matt Cox guy, the FBI guy, you know, the guy that found the fucking Whitakers.
I mean, you got some great shit going.
Don't stop.
I mean, what happens when you hit a million subscribers?
Who knows?
Who knows?
Who knows, man?
I just keep going.
You do documentaries?
Yeah, that's how I started.
I started doing documentaries.
Have you ever seen Deck Hands, a documentary I did on the Deer Beach?
No.
Holy fuck.
You got to watch it.
It's the best thing I've ever done on YouTube for sure.
But can I, off the air, when we get done, show you my little seven minute sizzle?
I would love to fucking watch it.
Because I'm in kind of a little bit of a limbo where I'm making a change with the people that I'm working with.
And, you know, maybe that might be something you'd be interested in.
Yeah, I would love to see it.
I would love.
It's only seven.
My sizzle is like.
722, which is a little long for a sizzle, but you know, I'd love for you to watch it.
Have you ever seen the commercial I did with Hogan and the Wrecking Ball?
Yes, was that you?
I made that.
That was me and my friend Luke.
Literally, it was to promote this fucking hosting company.
These guys came to me and they're like, hey, we got, we're, uh, you did that?
Hogan, yeah, Hogan came to me because I was, I was working at that shopping center on Colorado Beach where Brown Boxer is.
Right.
And I worked out every day with fucking Hogan and he came to me and I've done commercials with him in the past.
This was after the sex tape.
Yeah.
I should ask you about what he says about it.
I don't think we've ever really talked about it, to be honest.
Right.
But I always treaded lightly around that subject.
Right.
But he's like, because I did a bunch of commercials for Hogan's Beach.
That's how I really met him and started working with him closely.
And because I was doing tons of commercials with him.
And then he kind of like trusted me and he's like, hey, I got these entrepreneurs who are trying to get me to promote their business.
It's a hosting company.
They want to call it Hostomania.
Like, I want you to do the commercial for it, brother.
I'm like, okay.
Like, he's like, come up with an idea.
And that was right after the Miley Cyrus record.
I'm like, we're going to put you in the wrong.
Was he not?
Thong or was he naked?
He was in a thong.
Right.
But I'm like, we want to put you on a wrecking ball and it'll go viral and fucking put it on TMZ.
Didn't it go fucking viral?
No, it went super fucking viral.
It fucking worked great.
It blew the fuck out.
You did that?
I did that.
Yep.
Little motherfucking Danny Jones in the back of a goddamn fucking used car lot.
What the fuck, Danny Jones?
Yep.
I did that.
Where do you live?
Where do you live?
I live right down the street in Seminole.
You know where Reddington Shores is?
Yeah, yeah.
Like right there.
All right, cool.
Seminole, Reddington Shores.
And anyways, that led me into doing like all his fucking commercials.
For every little brand that he would work with, I would do the commercials.
He'd be his commercial guy.
Yeah, basically his commercial fucking idea guy or filmer guy, whatever you want to call it.
My video, my doc, it could be huge.
I mean, you didn't know what I know.
I want to see that shit.
I mean, it is.
I mean, I don't know.
I think it's going to be huge.
I'd like for maybe you to look.
I'm going to see it.
You got it on your phone?
Yeah.
I'll show it to you.
I don't want to take up too much of your time.
No, I got all.
What time is it?
We just did two and a half hours.
Let's do another hour.
I don't give a fuck.
You want to do another one?
A micro dose, bitch.
I don't even know what time it is.
I don't give a fuck.
I'm going from here to get a chicken sandwich and I'm out of here.
Are you really?
Yeah, me and my girl are going to probably end up having some hot sex tonight and that's it.
What's up?
Have you watched?
I'm watching right now.
I'm watching the dropout on Hulu about Elizabeth Holmes that Theranos bitch.
How fucking crazy is that bitch?
She's so weird with the voice.
I'm going to change my voice because I make it more believable.
Dude, that she was working that one guy.
Oh, my.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She's still not, you know, she doesn't get sentenced until September.
She's living in a $135 million mansion in Silicon Valley.
She just had a kid.
Some rich kid.
And yeah, but she had a kid with a guy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, fuck that.
Who knows what the fuck will happen to her?
I know for a fact, I know that fucking guy who just tackled Dave Chappelle and got his ass beat like Mojo Jojo.
He ain't getting shit.
They're letting him off.
Did you, did you, are you Ozark guy?
No, I'm not an Ozark guy.
You're not.
I can't get into Ozark.
What are you into?
I, I was a Breaking Bad.
I watched Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones.
After those two, I gave Ozark a shot.
I watched a couple episodes.
I'm like, they're trying too fucking hard.
Like, it's not, it's too close into the realm of Breaking Bad for me.
Yeah.
Breaking Bad was too fucking good.
And it kind of ruined Ozark for me.
Yeah.
Everybody loves Ozark.
Ozark tries to take, the manufacturing aspect out of what they're talking about, whereas they're just laundering money, whereas I think that's what was super cool about Breaking Bad is they showed you the production of it.
You know how Walter perfected the?
Yeah, like the actual manufacturing of it.
Yeah, you know the, the laundering, the money part of it, I guess, is maybe the smart person's part of it.
I want to see the street level.
Yeah, part of it.
The fuck.
I mean just like the fucking, his story, like just Mr Whatever Mr Chips to go into the fucking scarf and he was a pimp, He was a fucking, Walter White was a pimp.
He was fucking badass, dude.
Oh, man.
Everything about that show is so good.
Have you seen Cocaine Cowboys?
Oh, yeah.
I have Billy Corbin on here.
Oh, Billy's a friend of mine.
Is he really?
Yes.
I had him on with Screwball.
We promoted Screwball.
Okay.
And then did you see the latest Cocaine Cowboys?
I did.
Okay.
I loved it.
Didn't you?
Really fucking good with Willie Falcone.
Yeah.
All that shit.
I didn't know about it.
I had my buddy BB.
I probably shouldn't have said his name.
We kept him anonymous.
I had him on here, but he worked.
BB.
It's just BB.
Yeah.
BB.
He was in prison with Willie Falcone.
He actually worked with him in Miami.
And he told me, he used to tell me all these fucking stories.
He's like, you got to find out about this guy, Willie Falcone.
He's been telling me forever.
I'm like, who the fuck is Willie Falcone?
He's like, trust me.
He was way bigger than fucking Griselda Blanco.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
And then they fucking knew Cocaine Cowboys documentary comes out all about Willie.
I was like, holy fuck.
And your boy was telling you about it.
He was even telling me about it for years.
Yeah.
But yeah, man, that whole Coke.
I had George Valdez on here.
He was one of the main guys in that second Cocaine Cowboys movie.
He was the accountant.
Right.
He was like the main accountant who started the Coke.
So who's been your favorite guest over all the years?
My favorite guest?
Yeah.
Over all the years?
Fuck, man.
I don't know.
Honestly, I had probably more fun talking to Brett Phillips on here than most people.
I feel like we had a really good rapport, had a really good conversation.
She's a kid who plays for the Rays.
Yeah.
We talked about fucking like crypto and NFTs, and he went to Seminole High School, the same high school I went to.
Does he still play for the Rays?
Yeah, he still plays for the Rays.
Local kid.
Outfielder.
Yeah, from Seminole.
Good.
That's good.
He fucking like his story is so crazy because he was like kind of like a.
Nobody on the team, you know what I mean?
Like, he barely went from got traded from the Royals to the Rays, which was his hometown.
And he wasn't, he was just like an outfielder.
He never really had any big highlights, but he ended up breaking Babe Ruth's record for more grand slams in the shortest amount of time than anybody in history.
Really?
Yeah.
And then, and then when the Rays were in the World Series, what was it, two years ago maybe?
Yeah.
It was like they were getting blown out for the whole series, and it was game four.
I think it was.
And then they bring him in.
They bring him in.
It was like the game's over.
They lost the fucking game, but the bases were loaded.
And they bring in Phillips.
Bring him in.
Bottom of the ninth.
He's like, no pressure.
Like, whatever.
He's like, I just said a little prayer to Jesus.
And I walked up on that.
I fucking just swung for the fences.
And he fucking hit a grand slam and they won the game.
And he's like, fucking Johnny Rockstar.
He said he almost had a heart attack after.
He said his resting heart rate was like 200 right after.
He was all over the news.
Anyways, that was one of my favorite conversations I've ever had.
Him, Mark Lata.
Mark Lata is the guy who interviewed the people, the Kentucky people, or the people in Odd, Tennessee.
What was it?
Odd.
Odd is the name of the town.
Odd West Virginia.
Odd West Virginia.
The Metzgers.
Yes.
Yes.
Because of that, I watched that.
Bottom Of The Ninth Swing00:12:34
Metzgers.
That's their name, isn't it?
The Whitakers.
The Whitakers.
Yeah.
The Whitakers.
Yeah, the Whitakers.
And Odd West Virginia.
The one guy just barks.
Yeah, he just barks.
Have you watched any of it?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's freaky.
And it's all inbreeding.
And it's all from fucking each other.
They're dead family members.
They're just buried in the front yard.
I know.
Just when we think we got it bad, bad, just go to the fucking Metzger and Whitaker's, where the fuck they are.
God, I watched a little bit of that.
That's how I got down that rabbit hole with Anna.
Yeah.
Dude, yeah, man.
I liked Cox, though.
I thought Cox, you know, in small doses.
I think you go to the Max Cox car too much, though.
I do go to him too much.
Yeah, he's kind of like my go-to.
Yeah, I like him.
But, you know, tell him we got a couple, we're going to give him some Georgia boots with an insert.
He'll be 5'4".
He's got those now.
He definitely has those same fucking boots you got now.
His jeans keep getting tighter and his shirts keep getting tighter every time he comes in.
I'll tell you, though, he had a fucking racket, though, didn't he?
He had a fucking racket.
I don't know who had a better racket, him or the counterfeiting guy.
Honestly, the guy who I had on two weeks ago probably puts them both to shame.
The guy I had on two weeks ago was like the biggest cybersecurity fraudster in the history of the country.
You're kidding me.
Yeah, no, he was filing 200 tax returns a day.
Going to fucking ATMs and cashing the IRS checks.
He would spend one full day filing 200 tax returns, spend the following three fucking days going to ATMs across the country, cashing the IRS checks, filling up his Jansport backpack with like $150,000 a day.
Local guy?
No, he was based out of Georgia.
Did he come down and do the show?
He flew down and did it, yeah.
Really?
One of the most insane frauds I've ever seen.
How much time did he do?
He ended up only doing, I think it was less than 10 years.
I think it was like seven or eight years.
Really?
Yeah, less time than Matt.
He made way more fucking money than Matt did.
Now, do any of these guys, and this is just your opinion, this is me asking you questions.
I'm sorry.
That's okay.
But, like, do any of these guys, do you think any of these guys kept it, any of it?
Like, when you got.
Actually, actually.
And this is just your opinion.
You just reminded me.
You just reminded me of probably one of my top favorite podcasts.
We need another hit of assault.
This guy, fucking Roger Reeves.
He was a fucking.
He was a pilot who learned to fly because he wanted to fly for missionaries.
He was the number one drug smuggler.
I just watched it.
Yep.
I just started watching it.
That's his book right behind you, The Smuggler, on the middle shelf.
Yeah.
He was probably one of my favorite podcasts of all time because he's just like this old guy with the southern draw.
Talks like this.
You know, he just has a beautiful voice to listen to.
And fucking.
Like almost evangelical, right?
He was 18 years old flying his fucking little plane that he owned from California to Mexico once a week, making a million dollars a day.
Dealing with these fucking Colombians.
This guy, he got shot down five fucking times and lived.
Got shot down, fucking machine gunned across his leg, got his fucking balls shot.
They shot his testicles.
Why would they shoot him?
Because I don't remember exactly why he took off from a fucking airport.
He was running from the Colombian police.
That's what he was doing.
Right.
He met, he did a deal.
He was transporting coke for the Colombians back to California.
The Colombian police were trying to shoot him down.
And they actually did shoot him down.
He had to run through the jungle for fucking three weeks and he fucking almost died, made it.
Crazy fucking story.
I want to see a documentary on him.
Why don't they do a documentary on him?
They did a locked up abroad about him, actually.
Oh, okay.
They ended up locking him in Australia for eight years.
He escaped prison like four or five times.
Bro, this guy's a fucking killer.
And he is like the most docile southern, like a gentleman.
Right now, he lives in Santa Barbara with his wife.
But he'll come to your show, man.
He is fucking amazing.
This guy, this is one of the most fascinating characters ever.
Now, did he save any of it, you think?
In my opinion.
Just your opinion.
I think he's invested in real estate, and I think he's still, he's got.
How about Cox?
He's got, I don't know.
No, Cox, no.
This guy, yes.
How about Counterfeit Willie?
Counterfeit Willie, no.
I was watching.
Some of these guys aren't bright.
This fucking guy is old school Colombian dealing with the fucking with Pablo directly.
Right.
He fucking, he could call up George Ochoa right now.
Right.
And I think he, he literally has a fuckload of money still invested.
Right.
I think, I don't know.
Because on that level, you know, there's not a lot of documentation.
You know, when you're the IRS guy, I mean, they're filling out the tax forms.
You know, there's obviously documentation.
And when you're Cox and you've stolen 45 identities and this, this.
And when you're counterfeit Willie.
Yeah.
But, you know, there's a paper trail.
But when you're just got bag loads of money, like, you know, they don't fucking know where one of the bags.
He didn't know what to do with this fucking money.
He was buying fucking family members and friends fucking mansions on the water in California.
God, he did not know what to do.
And there's a difference between guys like him, though, and guys like Matt Cox and Counterfeit Guy.
Because guys like Matt and guys like Counterfeit Guy, they were trying to finance their lifestyle.
Matt was trying to, like, finance all these fucking whores he was dating and these cars and all this shit.
And he was like, he was broke like Roger, he was just this young kid trying to go on these adventures, he and, and he didn't need the money.
And then the he went through, I mean, like Cox and Counterfeit Willy.
They did fed time right, you know whatever.
They didn't have to go abroad in prison for eight years and escape four times and get shot out and live in the jungle three weeks right right, like you know right, they were always in a.
They had a hot and a cot at least always right right and and um, Roger interesting thing about him too.
Keep that in the middle in case I need it What oh, community?
Yeah, don't fucking don't be, don't be, Bork Boga, I've done some shit.
Okay, I'm taking another hit while you tell me to deal He's been with the fucking his wife since like high school their high school sweethearts and she stayed with him for his like 28 years stent through prison He was in prison for I think close to 30 years and she stayed with him the whole time.
You find him He emailed me, you know, it was fucking I would go sometimes I go I miss emails from people that cut that try to be guests on the show I miss we miss a lot of them and it was like one weekend.
I'm like, you know what?
I need to start like really Like paying attention to like the guests, I need to get some really interesting people on here.
And I was going through old emails, I just searched my email sometimes.
I type in the word interview in the search bar and find out people who have entered me emailed me about interviews.
And I came across this guy's email I missed six months ago.
And I fucking called him up.
So this motherfucker was trying to get a hold of you, yes.
And I called him up and I was like, even worse, you gotta get your ass kicked for that.
I know, I know it's pathetic.
So you call him up, I'm like, hey, bud, I called him up and I'm like, hey, man, I'm like, I really, I'm like, your fucking story is first of all, I thought it was like just by like the headline of the email and like what the subject was.
I'm like, I'm calling him thinking he's full of shit, first of all.
And I called him, like, listen to him.
He's talking to me for like an hour on the phone, telling me a story.
I'm like, no fucking way.
Then he told me about his book.
I read a couple chapters of his book and I'm like, dude, I need to get you here ASAP.
And he's like, well, you know, me and my wife are just traveling through Georgia and we're actually in North Florida right now looking to buy some real estate.
And he was, him and his wife were looking to buy like a house in Florida.
And I'm like, okay.
I'm like, well, can I get you down here?
He's like, well, I don't know.
We're all really busy and my wife's got surgery next month and I don't know if we can make it.
And I'm just like, I need to get you here.
I'm like, I'll do whatever you want.
Eventually, I talked him into coming a month later.
And as soon as I dropped the podcast with him, Rogan's best friend, fucking who I was telling you about, Lex Friedman, hit him up.
And he was on his podcast like the next fucking week.
I mean, Rogan watches your shit.
And then he was on Rogan's show the week after that telling him all about Roger.
It's like, you got to get Rogan, you got to get Roger on.
I'm talking about it.
And it was just, anyway.
Wait, did Rogan get Roger on?
He hasn't got him on yet, no.
Oh, fuck.
But Roger has Netflix knocking it.
He's got all these fucking production companies calling him in.
You know what's weird?
We were talking about like old school radio business and TV business and the movie biz, show biz.
A majority of the criminals that I have on here, they fucking, after they do this show, they get companies, production companies beating their fucking doors down, trying to get them to do like shopping deals, like shopping agreements.
Right.
To shop their shows around.
But most of these production companies, they don't fucking have shit going for them.
No, no.
They're just trying to lock up as many ideas as they can.
So they have a bookshelf.
I've ran into that.
Yeah.
I've ran into these.
Production companies who really are just bro, like sniffers I call them sniffing.
They're sniffing around to to get you excited, to then try to go sell that to somebody who can really make a documentary right, you know what i'm saying?
Right, like like there's a lot, there's so much of that.
It is.
It's such a there's not a racket man.
It really is.
It's kind of a rack.
You'd be like hey, you know, and then, and realistically they, if they're gonna shoot it, they have to go and rent you know a couple guys to shoot it and then have a couple guys edit it.
It's a fucking racket.
There's just not a lot of legitimate fucking people out there.
The industry has done a 180 now.
Now the production companies that have relationships with networks or TV networks or studios, whatever it is, they're scouring podcasts and internet shows to try to find content for TV.
Do you know how many podcasts, not like the Dirty John series?
Was it the Dirty John series?
Was it the Dirty?
It started out as an LA Times podcast.
It was from a podcast.
I don't know if you knew this, but LA Times as a newspaper, the newspaper industry is absolutely fucking almost as dead as my career.
They went and they took their top journalists and said, we're going to build recording studios where your little cubicles are.
We want you guys to start, instead of finding stories for the newspaper, find stories that we can make into podcasts.
And LA Times.
Oh, shit.
You know, the cops like to fucking pull people over in our parking lot.
Really?
It's fucked up.
It's annoying.
So, I forget.
I think it was called.
Oh, it's in the air, bro.
It's fucking.
Is it running right now?
It's hot as.
Calvin.
You guys have had a lot of 300 pound guests, so I've created a lot of heat.
No, I'm sweating my ass off right now.
But I think it's called Dirty John.
Okay.
I forgot.
Dirty John.
It's called Dirty John.
And it's a two or three part series.
Christian Slater is in it.
And it's all based on true stories.
Okay.
And it's all, all of this started out as podcasts.
And so a lot of documentaries and a lot of miniseries and a lot of these things are, these production companies are gravitating to these podcasts.
And you're right, turning, there's a large portion of them that are legitimate that are turning podcasts into, you know, video productions.
Right.
You got to write that down, Dirty John, and get into it.
Where was it at?
It was.
What forum was it on?
Netflix.
So it's on Netflix.
It's called Dirty John.
And I know you'll like it because it even says from the LA Times podcast.
LA Times now has a podcasting division.
And it makes sense.
I mean, I applaud the LA Times.
Here's the newspaper industry, arguably one of the top five newspapers in America, sees that printed newspaper is about.
Is this it?
Who's this guy?
This is the LA Times.
Dirty John.
Dirty John, LA Times by Christopher Gottfard.
Which one?
I think.
Is that the one we saw?
We saw both series.
What's Dirty John about?
It's about.
The first one is about a doctor who kills people and paralyzes them.
And he was a back surgeon and he was doing back surgeries wrong.
Because he was high on pills and all this kind of bullshit.
Dirty John Back Surgeon Story00:04:02
And all of it's true.
All of it's true.
And then the second one comes from this guy who was a lawyer and a doctor and his wife.
And he had an affair.
He was a big sling and dick attorney out of San Diego.
And he was having an affair with his secretary.
Well, his wife went batshit crazy on him because he left her with the two kids.
And then she murdered him.
Oh, my God.
And she was on trial.
And the first time got a hung jury.
And then the second time they tried her.
but they're all based on true stories.
Wow.
All from an LA Times podcast.
Wow.
And so I know you're in the podcasting world.
And if you're rooting for podcasting, it just goes to show you that, you know, so here's LA Times, who's like, man, printed newspaper business is over.
Like it's, you know, it's with the Rubik's Cube.
It's fucking done.
Right.
We're going to turn our journalists, those that are talented, into podcasters.
And so they have a whole podcasting wing, which is brilliant.
It is brilliant.
I mean, and the way they, they, they, Like, even NPR has a lot of really good podcasts too.
Like, uh, the serial one.
I don't know if you've heard of serial killers, or it's just called serial.
And they had uh, they would basically follow these long like murder trials and like weird fucking stories, but they make them like Netflix shows, but audio.
Like, they fucking they all the editing and the sound and the music.
Oh, it's such a huge production!
It's so riveting.
Yeah, it's great.
Now, where do you just now?
You guys do YouTube, your podcast, but do you guys, does your is your podcast audibly distributed too?
Oh, yeah, it's on YouTube.
And then visibly, it is visibly, it's on YouTube, right?
And then the audio is published on i or Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
And do you do you aggregate that through like a just one?
Like, I have Art 19 that I use to aggregate it through all of my you know, yeah.
We use a platform called Anchor, which is owned by Spotify.
Okay, so I upload it basically directly to Spotify to this company that's owned by Spotify.
It's called Anchor, it's kind of like Anchor Megaphone, and then they'll stitch in the commercials exactly.
So, so they're it's owned, it's a company that's owned by Spotify that has like a Platform to upload the audio, and they actually bring us a lot of sponsors too, right?
Because Spotify is turning into this giant fucking agency, like this giant marketing company, right?
Especially like the advent of their audio platform.
I think we're on, I think we're on, I think my shit's on Spotify.
I think you can do video on Spotify now too.
You can, yeah.
So, should I start doing that?
You think, oh, yeah, I'm in the process of right now transitioning all of my audio Spotify episodes to the video version.
I think fucking Spotify is going to give YouTube a run for its money.
So, but when you're saying you're in the process of taking all your audio Spotify.
And visualizing it, meaning you're just going to sync up the video of it?
No, no.
So, right now, I uploaded all the audio MP3s to Spotify.
Right.
But they have a tool on there where you can just replace the file.
So I have MP4 video files of every podcast.
So I have an audio file and a video file with the audio.
Right.
Like the clones of each other.
Sure.
So I'll just replace the audio file with the video file.
And not lose anything.
You're just basically putting the visual part of what was existing there now in replace of the audio.
Exactly.
Perfect.
Without losing any view counts, nothing like that.
And then they've actually just built in this cool new.
Uh, feature which can run the ads like with the video, so it's honestly, it's just like it's like an early version of YouTube, right?
Right?
It's cool, and I think you know, I don't know, I don't know what's gonna happen, but now, when you do your midstream placements, do you do them yourself or do you let them do the placements?
The midstream, I do a lot of it myself, and they also put a lot of automatic ones in there as well.
Oh, okay, so yeah, so they charge you different.
So, like the sponsors that they want to pay more money for a sponsorship can that can be read by me, and I can share, no, of course, yeah, yeah, of course, I do a ton of that.
But I'm talking about like when you're uploading your YouTube deal and it says, what a rookie move.
Sponsors Pay More For Reads00:02:38
Fucking.
What a fucking rookie.
God damn.
My lord.
You're fucking with me.
Cheap headphones.
Will you tell this guy's a piece of shit and then hang up on him?
Yeah, what's his name?
Shane.
Hey, Shane.
It's Bubba the Love Sponge.
Hi, Shane.
You're a real piece of shit.
Did you know that?
Look at you.
What are you, 150 pounds?
Fucking soaking wet?
Take off that hat so we can see that fucking hairline, kid.
That's what I'm talking about.
Matthew McConaughey on crack called back once it's looked back.
Oh, man.
But I will tell you this.
I've already got you sized up.
You got a high-vis shirt on so I can tell you that you're a real worker.
Oh, yeah.
You're not like this indoor cat, Danny Jones, over here.
This fucking indoor cat.
I know, but I'll tell you this.
You might be out there busting your ass, but this motherfucker's getting paid, and he's doing pretty good.
You might want to hang on to this friend, motherfucker.
He's the fucking stingiest rat you'll ever meet, bro.
Is he a fucking I'm trying to get him to do some business with me, but is he a fucking real rat?
He don't share the dime, man.
Yeah, and he's getting ready to have another kid.
He doesn't even know the fucking shit that's going to happen with that.
Fucking idiot.
He's got fucking problems.
I told him again, I'm buying him a vasectomy for fucking Christmas.
You better get to use it.
Please.
Hey, we're microdosing on weed, doing a podcast.
We ain't got time for your bullshit, okay?
See you later, buddy.
Bye bye.
Bye, El Teto.
He co hosts with me on here sometimes.
He couldn't make it today because he got a fucking real job.
I'd love to do some shit with you guys.
That'd be fun as fuck.
For real.
Like, I would really like for you to look at my world a little bit and tell me where I could get better.
And I'd love for you to come over to my studios one day and you just see what I got and just, you know, I'm kind of just.
Kind of assessed.
Some like oh, you're doing this wrong, you're doing that wrong.
Like you know, I can only find a few things you're doing wrong.
One of them is your headphones and the other one you have your phone on yeah retarded, and you need to learn how to work.
Endorsements yeah, you need to get, you need to get Crackhead Calvin on that right now.
I mean, we probably gave those people a couple thousand dollars with advertising, probably easily.
You know how many people are going to probably go out.
And what is this called?
Ah, it's called ah, the world's strongest smelling salts.
Yeah ah, the world's strongest smelling uh smelling, salts.
Ric Flair Promote That Shit00:12:42
I bet you could probably get them on Amazon, It's not, ah.
It's more like ah.
Ah.
Ah.
It's like when your girlfriend sticks her finger in your butt and you're not expecting it, right?
Yep.
It's not.
Oh, it's it's more like a Ric Flair woo.
Woo!
That's what they should.
Oh, they should get Ric fucking Flair to promote that shit.
Oh, my God.
I mean, this is the world's strongest smelling salts, and I bet you could probably get them at fucking Amazon.
Oh, yeah, you can.
I think so.
It's like 10 bucks.
I mean, and you just leave them in.
Now, can you take them out?
No, don't take them out.
I don't think you're supposed to take them out.
Well, luckily, those are fucking old as fuck.
That's like a two-month-old bottle.
So that thing's been run dry.
I mean, if you hit them hard, it gets you.
It does get you if you hit it right.
But when this thing's brand new and it comes in a plastic bag, you can't even open the plastic bag.
Woo!
Woo!
Have you always been a wrestling fan your whole life?
Yeah.
Since you were young and little kids.
I actually wrestled a little bit back in the day.
Really?
Hogan got me set up so good.
Kind of had it so good.
What WWE would do is because I was syndicated in all the, you know, when they, just like the NBA, When the WWE, WWF come to a territory, they'll hit like, you know, they'll do Monday Night Raw in Tampa.
Then they'll do a house show like in Orlando.
And then they would do like, you know, Friday night in Miami.
You know, so they route it, you know, globally.
Right.
You know, so the boys don't have to travel so much.
So when Hogan and I were hanging out, Hogan would tell Vince, hey, my best friend, I got trained in wrestling by a guy named Tom Stone in Milwaukee.
And so I knew a little bit about wrestling.
I'd been trained.
I'd been to wrestling school a little bit because when I was in Milwaukee, this guy named Tom Stone would do these high school shows and get these independent guys, like Greg the Hammer Valentine for 500 to come in.
And he'd do these high school shows where I was the number one rated radio guy in Milwaukee, did afternoon drive.
And I was a little bit crazy back then.
And I had freedoms to talk about what I wanted.
So Tom Stone said, well, I'm getting 200 or 300 people to come to these.
wrestling shows at high schools.
But if I had you on the card as the local radio personality and I would let you win, I'd let you smash the fuck out of everybody, I'd pack it.
So I'd be like, well, hell, he goes, well, six months, you got to come down and get, take, do bump, hit the ropes, learn the fucking lingo, learn the philosophy, you know, just learn various things.
So I then would be like, you know, Hot 102, WLUM, Bubba the Love Sponge, don't forget this weekend, this Friday night at Waukeshaw High School.
I'm the main event.
I'm taking on the Texas hangman.
That's right.
And so then I'd have the Texas hangman call in and be like, let me tell you something, Bubba.
You fat ass.
I'm going to take you pillar to post.
You short armed little son of a bitch.
You don't have any experience.
You're fat.
You're stupid.
And I'd be like, I'm going to.
And so we would, you know, all that for like two weeks.
And then the high school, all the kids would get involved.
And the high school football team would sell tickets as a fundraiser.
And we would fucking pack the place out, two or 3,000.
Of course, I'd go in there, beat the fuck out of the guy.
Guy would do some juice, get some Hardway juice, and i'd be the man.
So I had some wrestling experience.
When I came to Tampa then I got friends with Hogan and Hogan tells Vince, hey, my guy, my best friend, you know, he knows enough enough about wrestling that he could be the opening matches at the cities that he's heard in.
So I was heard in Jacksonville, I was heard in Orlando, I was heard in Miami, I was heard in Fort Myers, I was heard in Tampa.
So when the WWE would come into town I would be the opening match, the dark Match that wasn't on TV.
So, you know how they have two or three matches before TV starts?
Well, I would be one of the opening matches.
But what WWE got from that was three, four weeks of me on the radio every night being like, that's right.
This Saturday night, I'll be at the Sundome taking on the Brooklyn brawler, you know, and so they would get all of that added value.
And then I would, I just beat the shit out of the guy.
That's fucking amazing.
The best story of all, the best story of all is if you're a wrestling fan is I was in the Sundome here in Tampa, which is the, what's called the Yingling Center now, you know, where USF is where they play basketball.
No, Yingling.
It's called the Yingling, you know, Yingling, Yingling beer.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gotcha.
Used to be called the Sundome.
It fits about 8,000 or 9,000, and it's where USF plays basketball, you know?
So it was, I was, the WWE, WWF was there that night, and Hogan, for some reason, wasn't there.
I forget.
I don't know if he had defected yet or what, but Vince was still using me on the cities, on my cities that I was hurt as opening matches.
And they'd pay me 500, and they'd put me over.
I mean, I would win.
So I go there that night, and the boys in the locker rooms kind of always resented me because I wasn't one of them, you know.
I was kind of a guy who got fast tracked into kind of a cool position.
Right, right.
You know, so, you know, here's some guys that have been around for 10 years doing jobs, and, you know, here I am, fucking Johnny Hotshot, rolling with my Louis Vuitton luggage and my fucking hair, you know, hair fucking slick and be able to beat these guys that were regular wrestlers.
So I was supposed to go.
Do you remember the Mean Street posse?
They were.
Shane McMahon's best friends or something like that.
Well, I was supposed to wrestle them as the opening match.
So Pat Patterson, now in wrestling, they have an agent and him and Jerry Briscoe were the two agents that night and they kind of run the locker room and they tell who's going to win and whatever.
Well, Undertaker, Mark Calloway lived in Tampa at the time and it was a house show.
Usually Calloway didn't do house shows.
He only did big shows.
But since it was a home show, He did a favor for Vince, and so The Undertaker was the big guy on the card.
Now, if anybody knows anything about wrestling, Mark, The Undertaker, ran the dressing room.
He absolutely was the boss of the boys.
He settled all disputes.
Even when Hogan was there, Hogan had his own dressing room.
After Hogan left and then came back, and Calloway had already established himself that he ran the dressing room, he ran it.
He fucking ran the show.
So we're in the back, and Patterson doesn't know that I'm as popular in Tampa as I am.
He thinks I'm just some local fucking radio guy, and this is some bullshit gimmick.
So we're in there, and Patterson's like, okay, here's what's going to happen, Bubba.
Bristol's going to feed you.
You're going to, Jerry's going to come in, get outside distraction.
Mean Street posse is going to come in, hit you over the head with a fucking chair.
You're going to get dazed.
You're going to try to make a comeback.
They're going to scoop slam you, roll you into a schoolboy.
One, two, three, we're gone.
And I go, okay.
I mean, I'm losing at that point.
Okay.
But I'm, I'm, I'm like, I'm just, Happy to be part of the fucking deal.
I'm in a WWE ring in my own hometown in front of 10,000 people.
Bubba the Love Sponge from 98 Rock.
It's a good promotion for me, whether I win or lose, who gives a fuck.
So that's the way it is.
Callaway goes, uh uh, nope.
And I was like, you know, I was always really respectful to Mark.
Like I was, you know, like super cool to him.
And he lived in Tampa.
So Mark knew how over, how popular I was in Tampa.
Right.
And so Callaway goes, Hey, Patterson, let me ask you a question.
So we're going to go ahead and bury.
And when you get beat that fast, it's called you're burying a guy.
Like you're burying.
He goes, so Pat, let me just see if I get this straight.
We're going to bury a guy that spent three weeks on promoting this show that's probably put 2,000 or 3,000 extra asses in the seat tonight.
And we're going to bury him in front of his own hometown when this is just a house show.
It's not on TV.
We're not making any of our wrestlers look bad because nobody's going to see it except for the 7,400 people here.
And we're going to bury this guy in front of his own hometown when he's busted his ass.
Pat Patterson, without missing a beat, goes, you know what?
Uh, Bubba, you're gonna go off the second rope after you give him a double clothesline.
Jerry, you're gonna try to kick Bubba.
Bubba's gonna shoot you off into a schoolboy.
Watch for the double boot, Bubba.
You're going over.
And I turned to Calloway and he goes, It's business, man.
It's business, it's about doing business, and that's what makes the most bit boy.
The Mean Street posse were so mad.
They went from giving me a double clothesline and beating me to me going off the second and smashing him.
And it was that's my that's my fucking wrestling story.
That's fucking incredible.
All because the undertaker said, No, that we're not burying a guy in his own home, fucking town.
Who's busted his ass for us.
We're not doing that, that's now.
If it had been on tv and it would have been you know where people could see that it's a regular jobber off the streets is now beating an accomplished WWE guy, that's different.
But it was a house show and I was the opening match right, you know.
So that's that's, that's.
And you've done all that promoting and everything like that.
Oh yeah, for three weeks.
And be like, oh, you know, and I had a mean street posse call me up.
Be like, you know you're fat ass, you know it's going to take two of us just to match your fat ass, and you know, and all that, i'll be back and forth.
Yeah, they got probably $30,000 of free promotion from me that you can't even put a value on outside of their commercials.
Dude, I mean, fucking wrestling fans have such a bad rap.
They have such a stigma.
Like, I used to think that wrestling fans were such fucking losers before.
And then I went to fucking WrestleMania.
I went to my first wrestling event ever.
It was the New Orleans one, maybe four years ago.
And they are the coolest fucking fanatics.
I think they're way cooler than fucking football, NBA fans, any sport.
They're a fraternity.
They're like, they're a fraternity.
They really are.
And when you go there, they don't fucking fuck with you.
They're like, hey, bro, what's going on?
Who's your guy?
Hey, who's your guy?
Wow, man, fuck, that's my guy too.
They want to be your boy.
They're all like a fucking community of people that have each other's back, unlike sports fans where it's like more political, like fuck you.
You know, I could get you for a guest.
He's a very good friend of mine, Matt Riddle.
Matt Riddle is the current co-champion with Randy Orton.
Oh, no shit.
And he lives in Ocala.
Well, he lives in Orlando now.
Okay.
He's the dude that would, he, kicks off his flip-flops he used.
He was a former MMA guy.
Uh-huh, his name's Matt Riddle.
Maybe uh, Calvin can pull him up, uh-huh and uh, but he's, he's got one of the.
He's got one of the straps right now for WWE?
No way, and he'd be.
Oh, he's so cool, he is like, he's like.
Oh yeah, I know this guy.
He's like the JUKE squad.
Yes, he is.
He's oh, he's dope.
No, he's.
What's the guys from the juke squad's name?
Jack and Turner.
He's just like Jack.
Okay, he looks a lot like Jack.
Yeah, he's just like Jack and he's.
So pull up some big, some more pictures of him.
Yeah like, and when he And when he gets, man, he'd belt like a tank, huh.
Oh, yeah.
But like his gimmick is this, like, hey, bro, like people get real mad.
Like a surfer, dude.
Yeah.
Like, like Spagholi.
Hey, see if you can pull up Matt Riddle and Goldberg backstage.
And this was a shoot.
Like Goldberg was really, really mad at him.
And Matt Riddle was like, bro, see if you could.
Oh, the video.
Yeah, the video.
Goldberg and Matt Riddle.
Yeah.
And like this is a, this is, this is, and you know, Goldberg's old school, real, real fucking intense.
Yeah.
You know, like, you know, like fucking real intense.
Want to fucking kick your ass.
Yeah.
And, and wait till you hear how, if, if, if this is it, how Riddle, this is it.
In real life, Riddle could kick his fucking ass.
Really?
For real.
Like Riddle is an accomplished MMA.
Oh, is he?
He was a UFC at one time.
Okay.
Like in real life, Riddle would fucking kill him.
Wow.
Would kill him.
But like Riddle's like, you know, Goldberg's all tensed and shit.
That seemed real.
Oh, that was a shoot.
Like, that was a real shoot means real shoot me work means not real.
Okay, you're working shoot means it's real like that that's real like that wasn't rehearsed.
Yeah, that was somebody had a cell phone and they had had a little bit of a problem.
And when Goldberg said we need to talk, you know, Riddle's like fine, you know, fine, dude, you know, but that's a shoot.
Oh, it's fucking high viz Willie.
Oh, you're just gonna fucking show up in the middle of the podcast.
I mean, this is a professional fucking or what the fuck do you what is this?
I hope he doesn't fucking I thought he's taking a swing on me.
I really just thought right now he was gonna take a swing on me.
Real Shoot Means Not Fake00:08:38
Hey, hey, grab a chair, bud.
I really thought he was gonna swing on me.
Did you really?
He was gonna swing on me.
I was like, Whoa, I wanted him to come, uh, be a guest on or be a co host on this, but he had to work, so he showed up.
Is he weed whacking today or what's he doing?
What are you doing today?
Weed whacking?
Would you have a fucking pizza party?
He actually does real concrete work, yeah.
Like you're a poser on the concrete, bro.
That's a real concrete right there, exactly.
Put your headphones on, bitch, and join the party.
Don't you know how to be on the radio?
Yeah, you fucking nerd.
Come on, hey, call him a jobber, you fucking jobber, yeah.
A jobber is like, it's a wrestling term.
So they had a, if you're a jobber, what you are is back in the old wrestling school days, they would have the, they didn't have a big roster.
So when Vince or somebody would come into town, they would bring like, by the way, you got to turn this mic on.
Sorry.
They would bring like seven or eight of the stars, but then they would get local guys that are professionally trained just to lose.
So they would hire like 10 jobbers, 10 local wrestler guys.
and give him $500 a night to lose to Greg the Hammer Valentine.
So if you're called a jobber, then it means you're a hell of a hand and you can work, but you're going to lose.
Right, right, right.
That's exactly what he is.
What is he?
He's a fucking jobber.
Say it.
He's a fucking jobber.
Say it.
Crackhead Calvin.
Get a call.
No, what's going on?
Check, That's why he keeps calling Austin Crackhead Calvin, the clicker.
That's fucked up.
The right-hand clicker with carpal.
With carpal tunnel.
Carpal Calvin.
Takes him an hour and a half to pull up a TikTok.
So, is your day done for today?
How many yards did you lay today?
Today we did about 80, 90.
With a truck, though.
Oh, yeah.
Multiple trucks.
You can barely get 10 yards in a truck.
Right.
So, yeah.
Boom pop.
Now, do they have it now where the truck mixes it?
Oh, it's mixed up, ready to roll.
No, but like a lot of.
Like a dry mix?
Well, isn't there a technology where they get it wet and it rolls it around while you're driving and so it stays wet?
But then there's the other technology where they have all the elements and it mixes it as it's.
See, I know about fucking wet trucks.
That's called a dry batch truck.
Those are for usually smaller residential trucks.
Oh, okay.
So if you're pouring big, big shit, you're doing the wet truck.
You're doing wet, ready mixed.
Sorry, ready to roll, ready to roll.
What's concrete going for a yard now?
I think we're charging, we bid at probably about $170 a yard.
A yard?
Per yard.
Is that cheap?
No.
That sounds astronomical, is it really?
Used to be under $100 a yard.
Yeah, I remember the days when it was like $65, $70 a yard.
That day's long gone.
Yeah.
My god, long gone.
They do like the fucking water treatment centers, you know, the places that mix all the shit water and they filter out of it.
That's what he does.
They do all the shit tanks.
He's a shit jobber.
He's a shit jobber, yeah.
Not only is he fucking.
They also take that shit water, throw some chlorine in it, and send it to your sink.
Yeah, who cares?
Who cares?
Hey, who cares when you got motherfucking liquid death?
Exactly.
And we got the white monster.
That's exactly why you should be drinking liquid death because you know what?
The water you're drinking from your tap used to be shit water, my friend.
But not right here with liquid death, my friend.
That was nice of him to give you a can of water.
Right here, my friend.
Look at that.
Get a fucking close up on that.
Nah, that craziness.
That's what you should be drinking.
Not the shit water that fucking the jobber just poured a concrete slab for.
Just duds.
Murder your thirst, bitch.
Murder your thirst, bitch.
Endorsed by Bubba the Love Sponge.
I'll give that one to you for free, kid.
Thank you, Bubba.
You want to hit?
Yeah.
Hey, I'm on this shit, too.
Those are duds, man.
That thing's fucking expired.
Yeah, but here's what you guys don't understand.
Now, fucking Danny Jones over here is going to take this and give these clips to this company and say, hey, we need some endorsement here, buddy.
Free.
We need a couple cases of that.
We got the power pig huffing your salts live on TV.
We need $1,500 a month and fucking a case, and that's what we're talking here.
Yeah.
We got a half a million subscribers, 67,000 zillion views.
And we got a jobber pulling concrete.
What else could you ask for?
And we're in the back of the fucking automotive shop.
What the fuck?
You got to put a man's man in here.
You can't just put this.
You let me get up in this bitch.
We'll be fucking rich, motherfucker.
I'll tell you right now.
Get me up in here.
Roll my world into this and you guys roll into my shit.
I'll have a plane again.
I used to have a fucking airplane.
I can't wait to check out your fucking studio.
It looks badass.
You will flip the fuck out when you see it.
It is the.
In fact, I am so inefficient on how I could be utilized.
Like if I had a guy like you.
That could help dial my shit in.
The space I got and the content that I have, Danny.
You would fucking freak out.
Tell him about some of the content that you got.
He's got a room in his studio.
The size of this filled with fucking tapes of fucking Squirt Olympics.
Oh, yeah.
Fucking the Sibian.
Shit.
Let me show you a video I just put on my YouTube channel.
And I just found it.
And it's me and Hogan going to the.
Magic Lakers game.
I watched that last night.
We meet Tiger Woods and Lil Wayne, and we're fucking gorted.
Did you see that?
I watched that last night.
That's the shit I got.
Oh my God.
Austin, go on his YouTube channel.
Just type in BTLS YouTube, and then it's like the latest video.
Yeah, the latest video.
And it is funnier and fucked.
But, like, Dan, I got hundreds of hours of that shit.
And I just happened to find my girl found that one.
You know, I was in back of my merch trailer and I found this big folder full of DVDs of, you know, fucking fire ants on 25's testicles.
Oh, fuck.
We took a mason jar and we put honey on 25's balls and then took the mason jar and stuffed his balls and then duct taped it so it was an airtight.
Oh, my God.
And then this fucking army of fire ants goes up to his balls and they're eating his balls and stuff.
And he's like, ah!
I got from stunts to whores to celebrities.
The fucking Rogan shit, all those people you used to get back on there back in the day is incredible.
You know, I'm a huge fan of yours.
Like back in the day, he's like three times bigger of a fan of yours.
No way.
Oh, he is.
I've been fucking for a while.
I've got to get you some Bubba Army shit.
I've been telling Danny to get you on the show for years.
I've been trying.
I've been trying.
He's full of shit.
You know, he has been.
I've been so busy.
And then I started really kind of looking at his shit and I'm like, motherfucker, this guy's bigger than me.
I need to get on this.
I need to get on this motherfucker's tip.
Yeah, we need to get together.
How many people's podcasts have you been on besides mine?
Like, how many other people who have the YouTube channel?
I just did one this morning.
Did you?
But it was from the UK and it was about catfishing because I had a girl on my show back in the day named Jinjessa Brazil and she's one of the most catfished people in the world.
But this was a big time production company.
This was like an LA Times deal.
So I actually, this is my second podcast.
Is it a Skype one?
Yeah, it was this new app.
No, he flew to the UK.
Have you heard about this new app that they use for it?
It's called Riverside FM.
And you talk to them and they talk to you, and you might be, this might, Dan, this might be a game changer for you.
Riverside FM.
And you can see that was the production company.
See where it says Janessa?
And then that was the meeting room that I went to.
Okay.
And it's for podcasts.
Like, join a studio and you hit that or a QR code, but it's a way to, It's a way to pipe in guests that's better than Zoom.
No way.
Yes.
I've never had that.
And they make you wear earbuds.
You have to have earbuds, and that's it.
But you might want to look into it.
You might want to.
Video on there, too?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
So.
So there's nothing better than having somebody in the studio, though, you know?
No, it's such a better experience.
But if you can't get them in the studio, you got to get them.
Okay.
You got to get them.
True.
You know?
And so.
But I've only done.
I think I did Dan and the guys from Orlando.
Dan and Tom, Tom and Dan, or something.
Tom and Dan.
They're just a couple radio guys.
I think I did their podcast once, and I did a guy from St. Louis who was a big Howard fan called like STL Now or something.
Venmo Deal For Bubba Army00:10:33
Okay.
That's it.
That's the only podcast I've done other than my own.
Hey, what's your name again?
Shane.
Shane.
Shane the Jobber.
Now, hold on.
Before you guys go on, Danny, tell me that this is like not fucking super cool.
This is fucking good.
This should be viral.
What year is this from?
2010.
Oh my god.
This should be viral, don't you think?
I 100% agree.
You got Tiger Woods before he beat the shit out of this is his ex wife.
You got Lil Wayne.
You got Hot Bitches.
And you got Hogan fucked up begging homeless people for dollars.
So, watch.
Go ahead and watch this.
Go ahead and expand it, crackhead.
Here we go.

My wife gets involved here.

Yeah, and I'm saying, easy, Hogan.
The entire arena's watching this.

Hooties in rare form.
Oh, shit.
The whole entire arena's looking at it.

Oh, there you go.
I love when he skipped off of it.
Oh, God.
Okay.

Eminem.
I mean, no, I got like it.
Shouldn't that be something?
Isn't that better than 90s?
You get in trouble for posting that shit?
No, I own it.
Okay.
Even though it's him on it, he doesn't get mad at you.
My camera, my.
Right, true.
You own the copyright.
Welcome to the Bub Army YouTube.
Oh, have you seen my white trash burnouts I've been doing?
Yes.
That's fucking incredible.
Oh, you still own that fucking racetrack, right?
Yeah, I own a racetrack.
Yeah.
I own a racetrack.
I mean, we could be doing.
Danny, I need to be your partner.
Or you need to be my partner or something.
You need a barbecue spot out there or something?
What do you mean?
My buddy's having a wedding soon, and he said they're, uh, They're getting catered by some barbecue company and they said you owned it or something.
No, there's a barbecue company called Bubba's.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, about to get a cease and desist.
Yeah, no.
Bubba the Love Sponge is a nationally federally trademarked, though.
Oh, yeah.
Just like Hulk Hogan, right?
Yeah.
When you show my name, you're supposed to put a circled R after sponge.
Right.
Yeah, so, you know.
But, I mean, Danny, I kind of, you know, I need to fucking work for you or something.
We need to work together.
We need to help each other work.
Can I put on a high vis deal, pour some concrete, then roll up in here and get some tips?
Bubba's already taught me like a hundred things how to improve the audio and the headphones and all that fucking kind of radio deal.
It's probably all this shit I've been telling you for 10 years.
No, you just need to these headphones are perfect.
I mean, really, they really are.
Yeah, but they're falling apart.
I need to upgrade them a little bit.
You should get a headphone sponsorship.
I need to get the real arms that come out of the table, not these janky, fucking wobbly deals.
Yeah, but with your numbers, you should be getting sponsorships.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm not a good salesman.
I am.
That's where we help each other.
What I can do is you can help me with my content and how to get it out, and I can help you market and get some spot.
Like, you should have those super cool arms that are lit, or have one central arm here, and they all parade out.
Articulating deals?
Or just clean this up a little bit.
Maybe make that a little bit more user friendly.
Maybe be able to pipe in the audio.
That's what I've been wanting to do pipe the audio through the headphones.
That's what you need to do.
And just a few little things make that TV bigger.
That TV needs to be the size of that wall.
Yeah, true.
Really?
True.
And, you know, just I got to move my damn tridents.
Well, hold on.
I'll tell you, motherfucker.
You put the tridents up a little bit, and then you go the TV is, you know, about what is that, a fucking jobber 43?
No, that's a fucking 52.
That's a jobber 52.
Jobber 52.
You should be running a fucking, you know, full-blown 81 Jones.
A fucking 100-inch McGillicuddy.
You should be running at least an 82, Willie.
Okay?
All fucking day.
Let's do the numbers.
Come on.
Yeah.
I mean, you can buy those for fucking $7.99 at Walmart.
Come on now.
Yeah, true.
Cameras are good.
Cameras are good.
Those are good cameras.
These are fucking the industry standard pretty much in podcasting.
Right.
New arms, better headphones, and a better TV.
And we're fucking, I mean, shit, we're a million subs, bitch, and I get half of that.
Yeah, good luck.
You'll be suing him in no time.
Yeah, he has a lawyer, too.
Bubba owns Concrete Nicole and Hogan's lawyer.
Concrete.
Clem's concrete, bitch.
Concrete with Clem.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
That's so funny.
Well, listen, man, any other questions you need to get to?
No, man.
Thank you for coming on, man.
I met fucking Concrete Willie.
That's my boy.
Tell all these motherfuckers listening and watching where they can watch your show, your daily show, and find your YouTube, all that stuff.
Plug everything.
Actually, the easiest thing, I have an app, Bubba Army app.
You just go get the Bubba Army app.
You can hit listen now, and you can hear our show.
And our show's live from 6 until 10.
Then it replays all day.
you know, or you can find us YouTube, everything's at the Bub Army.
Everything.
I'm even like a stripper.
I got a cash app and a Venmo.
You are like a stripper.
You got an OnlyFans?
Yes.
Do you really have an OnlyFans?
Yes.
Hell yeah.
I'm going to show you something.
This is a marketing genius.
This is going to flip you out.
This is going to flip you out.
This is in one week.
This is what I did on Venmo and just since Friday of last week.
Wow.
That's just people sending you Venmos.
That's just, hey, it's Bubba and tips.
That's like, hey, it's Bubba.
And if you're not on Twitch and you're not giving me stars on YouTube and all kind of deal, you can Venmo me.
At the bub army, and there's guys.
Oh, yeah, Venmo 25 bucks.
Holy fucking shit!
You are a you truly are market cash, Zell, Venmo, PayPal.
All at the bub army.
I'm gonna get on that.
Yeah, I got this fucking Patreon deal.
It doesn't really work too well.
Get the fuck off of that.
Patreon sucks.
It's not, I mean, what the fuck?
I gotta get on OnlyFans and Venmo.
OnlyFans, Venmo.
It's you need to only fans do good.
We do we do about 2,500 a month.
Okay, I mean, you and you have a fucking hardcore loyal following.
Well, we have.
The thing about our following is we have levels where if you have given at least $2,400 in a year, then you're considered Bubba Army Royalty.
And you get an invitation to the Bubba Army Royalty Party every year, which is the second week of Martin Luther King Day weekend, because that's the cheapest weekend to fly.
And the hotel rooms aren't extravagant.
So the second week of January, everybody flies into Tampa, and you get the Bubba Army ring, which is a big Super Bowl.
We don't have one, do we?
We should have brought one.
That's bad.
The same people that make the Super Bowl rings make my rings.
But you have to have the $2,400 level.
So, you know, it's just a big, you know, it's a big Bubba, you know, fucking Ponzi slash Shakedown, Amway, Bernie Madoff, you know, this fucking used car.
It's just a hustle.
It's a straight fucking hustle.
That's fucking genius.
And you got the audience, but you're not hustling.
I'm not hustling.
That's my problem.
I'm hustling.
I don't have your audience.
If I had your audience, I'd be doing $10 million a year.
Fucking, hey, I need to learn from you, Bubba.
No, for real.
I believe that.
I'd be doing $10.
If I had your audience, I have 45,000 subscribers.
And, you know, I know what I do.
If I had your audience, I'd be doing 10 million a year.
Well, I'm going to learn.
I'm going to teach you.
Now, you teach me how to get this shit out, and I'll teach you how to fucking sell it.
You got a fucking deal, Bubba.
Concrete Clem.
Thank you for doing this, Bubba.
That's his name, Concrete Clem.
Concrete.
Hell yeah.
And fucking, I don't want to put crackhead on him.
No, you don't have to give him crackhead.
How about right-clicking Calvin?
Right-clicking Calvin?
Right-clicking Calvin the cowboy.
Something.
Hey, man, I had a great time.
Love you, Bubba.
More importantly, I want to show you my sizzle.
Oh, yeah, let's watch that.
It's seven minutes.
Okay.
So, are you good with that?
I'm good with that.
We might even be able to project it up to the next one.
You don't want to watch it on the podcast, do you?
