S02E15 - VIDEO KILLED THE RADIO STAR
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
I heard you on the wireless back in 52.
Lying awake and dentally tuning in on you.
If I was young, it didn't stop you coming through.
Live from New York, it's Get Off My Lawn with Gavin McGuinness.
We were new by machine on new technology.
And now I understand the problems you can see.
I met your children.
Oh, oh, oh.
What did you tell them?
Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star.
Thank you, Elton.
That's how cool.
That was the buggles.
Oh my God, look how fat.
How fat I'm getting.
I'm also getting ripped.
So the belly is too big, but also the top is too big.
I'm becoming a giant.
I'm like Carrot Top now.
I'm huge.
Oh, I've never seen the video for that song.
Can you show it?
You've never seen it?
I can't.
That's what I said.
I don't believe you.
I've never seen the video for Video Killed the Radio Star.
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind, we've got...
new wave was idiotic.
It's an entire genre being sarcastic.
They're kidding.
You know who else was kidding?
The cure.
Robert Smith and his buddy, whoever...
That's why I never wear this jacket.
Robert Smith and whoever else does the cure, they thought pop music was ridiculous.
So they thought, let's do a parody of it.
And they would do these silly songs.
And then people go, those songs are awesome.
So then they sort of, the joke subsumed them.
And they became a parody of pop, but forever until I assume you're not kidding anymore.
It's like when you're, I believe the epithet is a wigger.
When you're a wigger for too long, you start dreaming in Ave, African American vernacular English.
Now this is way down the line, obviously, with them.
But the Buggles who did Video Killed the Radio Star, obviously they're talking about MTV and how videos ended, changed music forever.
People like Steve Miller band, you know Steve Miller with Abra, Cadabra, I'm going, he's hideously ugly.
And he did fine on radio, and he did fine on tour because he'd be on stage.
But when videos came out, your personal beauty became much more important.
So they would have Britney Spears and, you know, boy bands and stuff.
They became more valuable than poor Steve.
He's got to like have hot chicks and magician actors and horses in his videos.
This is, this video is why video killed the radio star.
Hey, you know what you should show?
Billy Squire, speaking of video killed the radio star, he danced in a really gay way in one video and it ruined his career.
Yeah, that's it.
And he was like going like this.
And I think he was trying to do kind of a Mick Jagger thing, but it really ended him.
And this video killed this video star.
He was being all sexy.
Guys, we're not sexy.
Check out the mailbag.
That's God saying, don't be sexy.
This guy was it.
He was top of the charts.
Everyone loved him until this video in 1984.
I remember it.
I was 14.
I didn't really care.
I was into punk.
Look at this.
You see, it's kind of Mick Jaggery, but it's too gay.
Holy shit.
That's bad.
Damn.
Oh, now I'm crawling on the ground like your sex slave.
Oh.
Having a little spaz attack.
What a loser.
Look at that.
And then just freeze on his crotch.
Crotch freeze.
Whoa, dude.
Take me in your arms.
Even though those lyrics, too, are super gay.
Who says that?
Take me in your arms?
That doesn't beat a really gay dance by Zach Efron.
You know that gentleman, right?
No.
You don't know Zach Efron?
He's like a heartthrob.
Take me in your arms, Ryan.
Okay.
I don't get taken in any arms.
That's the thing about being a dad, you don't realize.
Kids don't want to hug you because you're the disciplinarian.
Your wife doesn't want to hug you because she's exhausted and she just crashes.
And I'm married to an American Indian and the ones that are nice are extinct.
So they're not real sweeties, the ones that are left.
So I don't get hugged by anyone.
Uh-oh, my son has pink eye and my eye is feeling a little sticky.
At a funeral, I got hugged, and then I said, why doesn't anybody hug me anymore?
Okay, let's say this two days ago.
Why didn't this ruin his career?
I guess because it's the pussification of America, right?
Yeah, this is top-notch alpha.
Yeah.
This guy will fuck things up.
Language.
Where is he?
I don't know.
The grass is like Mars green or something.
It's like grass isn't.
It's a Dylan Brainerd and Zach Efron's life.
Somebody saturated the hell out of us.
Oh, it's bad, huh?
He's on a golf course.
Yes.
What a dork!
What a dorky set, too.
At least hide the flags and pretend you're not on a golf course.
At least it doesn't get worse.
All right, that's enough.
So the reason we chose this song and this theme is because I want to go over some videos.
I was sort of watching some viral videos, and I think it's fun.
Is this the last day of the week?
Maybe.
I think it's fun to go over some fun viral vids.
You know, we get so serious on this show, and it's fun to just sort of vibe.
But before we do, I was watching.
No, this is a video.
Before we get to videos, I'd like to show you a video.
And this is actually what inspired the theme of this show.
I saw this woman getting a tattoo on her head of a logo for a place.
I guess it's like a Czech cashing place in Czechoslovakia.
That's redundant.
Now, Czechoslovakia was communist.
It was run by Stalin.
It was recently liberated, I think, in the 90s and became the Czech Republic.
That doesn't mean you're wealthy overnight.
I was there in the early 90s after it had been liberated, and it was still gross.
I mean, they don't have catalytic converters on their cars.
You go to, say, pills in Czechoslovakia, and there's just like soot and crap.
You know, like, it's like China that way.
In Taiwan, if you ride your bike anywhere, and then you get to where you're going, you wash your hands and your face, and you look at the towel, and there's your face and two hands there because there's just soot.
It's like 1930s London everywhere, and that's the vibe I got when I was in the Czech Republic.
So, although it's part of Europe, is it in the EU?
I'm not sure.
It still sucks.
So you have a lot of losers there.
And this pathetic soul agreed to get a tattoo on her head of this, whatever it is, wire transfer place in Czech Republic.
And I think it was for about five grand, 20,000 checos.
This woman says no.
But she's got an Yves Saint-Laurent purse.
That's pretty good.
He's not going to do it, by the way.
We got big boobs in the Czech Republic.
That's going to be a sub-theme, I think, on this show, boobies.
And it has nothing to do with the fact that I don't get hugged anymore.
I think I like this kind of chick.
Czech chicks.
Do you like big teeth?
So she's saying she's not going to do it because it's not enough money.
Couldn't you just get it removed?
Now I've done a bit of research, and you're going to have to jump ahead, dude.
It's the blonde who does it.
No, you jumped a little too far.
Yeah, there she is.
You can tell her boobs go much lower, and she's pulling them up, but that's appealing, too.
You don't understand that, you young people.
We like pendulous at this age.
She doesn't look like a junkie, though.
Although her purse is not expensive.
Look, her skin is pretty pure.
And do they do meth?
Is there meth in the Czech Republic?
And she's not high or drunk, and her skin is pure.
Maybe she's a prostitute?
I don't know.
But anyway, jump ahead.
She agrees to do it.
And by the way, tattoo artist.
One of the reasons I chose this video is because I think it's an interesting concept wherein I'm a libertarian.
These are adults.
They're making choices.
It's a business decision.
However, are you not clearly mentally ill if you get that?
And if so, are you not, as the person paying that person, are you not paying a mentally ill person?
It's sort of like they say that, you know, encouraging someone to commit suicide is free speech.
Well, if someone's going to listen to you, then it's like telling a person with Down syndrome to jump off a cliff because they'll be able to fly or something.
You know what I mean?
So it's not someone totally of sound mind.
By definition, if you're getting a forehead tattoo of a logo, you're not of sound mind.
In fact, in Britain in the 70s, there was a classification you could get that was called ASBO or something, anti-social behavior ordinance.
And basically, if you had a facial tattoo, it meant that you were clearly insane and totally unemployable.
And you would get free welfare.
Free welfare.
You get welfare without questions for the rest of your life because you're obviously not.
So in Britain's past, the definition of unemployably mentally ill included someone who would do this.
Now, there's also the possibility that this is really, really good fake footage.
But in Czechoslovakia, and you can tell by the plugs, that's where they are, I'm not seeing it.
You know what I mean?
It's real.
Yeah, but that could be fake, dude.
Fake ink?
It's a sharpie, so it doesn't rub off when you go like that.
And then they're adding, see, there's hard cuts, so they're adding all this red behind it to make it swollen.
I don't know.
They would deserve like the Academy Award in horror makeup.
I don't know.
And I did some research, and there's absolutely no one talking about it being fake.
I don't call shenanigans on that.
Yeah, I don't call shenanigans either.
Us oldies are not very good at shenanigan calling.
I can do it in letters.
If someone sends a letter about a guy who was a total beta male, I can usually tell they're exaggerating.
But as far as fake videos, you're better at it than me because that's your generation.
So this reminded me of bum fights.
Do you remember bum fights?
That was in the early 2000s.
And it was these immoral human beings who would pay bums to fight each other.
Now, this is less controversial as far as the ethics.
It's very clearly wrong because you're dealing with brutal alcoholics.
Look, that poor bum got the word bum fight.
That's their logo tattooed on his forehead.
Now, this is someone drunk out of their minds.
So it's not just a mentally ill person.
It's a mentally ill person who's self-medicating with booze and is clearly not in control of his actions.
And you had him do your logo.
That's worse Than this one.
But those guys, the guys that did bum fights, they also got bum fights on their knuckles.
And I think someone else got it tattooed on their forehead and on their belly.
They sued after they sobered up.
There they are.
He's got bum, he's got bum life.
I mean, I have to admit, part of the dark side of me does find it kind of funny.
Yeah.
But you do, it's wrong, right?
I don't care.
I don't give a fuck.
I don't care.
What is the charge specifically?
I feel like we should call a cop.
Like exploitation?
This is sort of like that sex cult, nexium, the sex cult, where it was like, he had me as his sex slip.
Really?
Could you leave?
Well, yeah, but it was psychological control.
No, no, you weren't drugged.
You weren't held there at gunpoint just because he convinced you that he was magic.
That's on you, my dear.
Did they say what the charge was?
Well, the attorneys for the defendant said that the clients have never encouraged violence, and so I think maybe it might be inciting violence.
What's inciting violence?
Like, there's a threat where you say, hey, I'm the leader of the Crips, go kill Kanye West.
Or there's like, I'll pay you to fight that guy.
Yeah.
Isn't that what boxing is?
Yeah, but there's a lot of regulations for that.
We can't just start fighting in the street.
Yeah, I guess not.
The other guy is okay, too.
And he wrote a book about it.
That guy is doing great now.
And he's got a book out called, like, what's it called?
Isn't that in the link somewhere?
Let me see.
I'll see.
Oh, wow.
Wait.
Yeah, that's him.
Oh, shit.
Hey, watch your language.
Skebab.
So there's his book.
A Bum Deal.
He's still capitalizing off of.
Yeah, he's still making money off being a bum.
It's been pretty lucrative.
And his forehead looks okay, so I guess he didn't get one.
He's the one who got it on the knuckles.
I remember they were on Tom Green when I first moved to New York, and they got into a fight backstage.
I think Andrew W.K. was on the same show as them.
And in the green room, and I knew Andrew W.K. then because I discovered him, there was a fight in the back room, and they ended up like having to make an escape, the bumfight kids, from MTV Studios because they were going to get beat up.
I don't think it made the news, but I remember it then.
Is that anywhere?
Like Tom Green likes taking the piss, as they say in Britain, but I think everyone agrees, though it's difficult to articulate exactly how.
I don't envy the judge that has to handle that case, but we all agree that free market or not, that's disgusting.
However, what if a woman comes into your place and says, I'd like a Drake tattoo on my forehead, please?
She's an adult.
With the sheaver eyebrows.
When Drake tattooed, when Drake tattooed, when Drake found out about this tattoo, and I think you got the A wrong, by the way, I think the A has a little hat on it, just like the K does.
So they got that wrong.
I heard when Drake found out about, when Drake found out about this, he said he was going to kill the guy who did it.
He was going to kick his ass.
There's more pictures there.
There she is getting it.
So if you're a tattoo artist and an adult comes into your store and says your shop and says, I'd like a Drake tattoo, what do you do?
Isn't that her right?
Should he be beat up for that?
There's Drake saying he's going to kick his ass.
He's going to fuck him up.
Is that like ableist?
Like it's homophobic to not bake a cake for a same-sex couple.
And if you don't allow a mentally ill person to get a tattoo, isn't that kind of ableist?
Yes.
Mentally ill people are not like us, though.
So they shouldn't.
But then again, are you definitely mentally ill if you want a Drake tattoo?
I said the UK government thinks that.
Yeah, I don't know if you're supposed to apply judgment.
This is my kind of thing, though.
I like to get the argument into a place that's interesting.
Right now in Clown World, we're way out there.
Like with abortion, I think the argument should be from here, which is conception, to is the baby viable?
Could it survive in a plexiglass box, which is like, what, 21 weeks now?
That's where I want to keep the argument.
But in Clown World, we're talking about a day after the baby's born.
So all I want to do, I'm not a revolutionary.
I just want to bring the clown world back into the realm of normalcy.
And a good normal question is, should someone be allowed to get a forehead tattoo?
By the way, the woman who got it, they've checked in on her since, and she doesn't seem like a junkie, and she seems perfectly happy, and she says she spent the money on her kids.
She doesn't appear to be, like, junkies have bags under their eyes.
They have pockmarks.
They have sores that they pick at.
She looks like a, she could be, like, imagine she was an heiress to the Paul McCartney throne or something.
You just go, oh, rich bitch.
I hate these rich kids with their piazza doros.
So he, he, so they, they paid her $20,000 check dollars, which I think is five grand.
That's it?
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
And then he offers to go up.
He offers to go up at 1.2 million check dollars, which I believe is a quarter million U.S. That's the maximum.
But he starts out going up to 80, going up to 100 grand U.S. And then eventually he doesn't really offer it.
He said, would you do this for $250,000?
And she just keeps saying, nope, nope, nope, nope.
And she says, I'm not removing it.
She says, I like it.
At least get bangs.
No?
Yeah, but then it looks like she's hiding it.
I think she's crouched.
She's like, no.
Hide it.
She's missing a tooth on the left side of her face.
Not an important one.
It's way better.
You're right.
Yeah, it's right there.
You can still eat an apple.
And so they're in the Czech Republic.
God, I'm not really on today.
Uh-oh, you're hitting the juice?
Sometimes you got to alter your body chemistry just a little bit.
That's what self-medication is about.
Not a lot.
Don't say, oh, I'm not feeling quite on.
I keep saying the word Drake wrong.
I'm going to get shithammered.
No, you just have like a little sip.
Drake tattoo.
A little Drake tattoo.
When Drake Tattoo found out about it, I was like, whoa.
When there's no milk.
What do you got there?
This is that site.
I went to free.1.
Oh, this is free1.cz, which is check whatever.
I mean, the check girls.
I didn't know that about it.
And it's just a bunch of odd stuff.
I mean.
Ew.
Don't show stuff that we can't air.
Well, no, it's just brains and maggots.
Brains.
That's my favorite Christmas song.
Brains and maggots.
Brains and maggots.
And chestnuts roasting on an open.
That's Chinese.
That's Beijing Christmas.
Uh-oh, I'm still saying.
Look, speaking of funny videos from Europe, remember the vegans eating meat in Berlin?
Now, here's a new theory I've just come up with.
White people can't be cool without at least some black people around.
I don't know why that is.
I'm not saying that's good or bad, but I've just noticed when Europeans are cool, it's just missing something.
It's sort of like, have you heard that women can give themselves psychosomatic pregnancies?
And what comes out of them is all the parts of the baby that the woman can make.
So it's just a clump of flesh with a tooth and some hair and like one fingernail coming out the bottom.
They make this sort of pile of human that's missing, obviously, bones and organs and everything else.
That's what European cool people are.
They have like a leather jacket with the collar up and they're sort of like, hey, what are you guys doing?
Are you going to be dancing at the disco on Friday?
I'm probably going to go there smoking marijuana and everything, man.
They kind of talk like narcs.
Anyway, these are really cool, badass, tough Berliners eating raw meat at a vegan festival and it's still kind of corny.
Again, you're cropping too close on this shit.
Or it's also the worst cameraman on earth.
Here, turning it up.
Why are they all speaking English, too?
Is that a thing in Berlin?
It doesn't matter if it's something.
All the people want to do is have a nice day and not hurt any animals.
Are they making people sick?
Like, what do you not understand?
Sorry?
They're making people sick.
What do you not understand?
We don't believe them.
We don't believe them.
We are also animals.
Oh, this is interesting.
I think a lot of these raw meat guys think that vegan isn't just a bad diet choice.
They think it actually kills you.
Oh, I hate this new thing.
I hate the phone thing where it's become an appendage.
I watch a lot of public freakout on Reddit, like street fights.
And especially women, they'll be fighting with their phone in their hand.
Or they'll be drunk and they'll be dropping it all over the place.
Put this in your pocket, especially when there's some conflict on the horizon.
What is this crap?
Go ahead.
Oh, this guy's coming.
Get my email.
Get the fuck out of here, man.
What are you doing?
You can't ask me.
It's a public speaker.
You see what I mean?
It's so humorless.
You're pushing us.
They're making people sick, man.
Does this have a lot of views?
You're making people sick, man.
No one's going to want to go to the disco with you guys and do disco dancing and listen to rock and roll, man.
I'd do drugs and I'd get totally wasted on my motorcycle, you guys.
1 million.
That's not bad.
You know, Pathetic Millennial is a friend of the show, and we know him through Rebel.
And he has a video that's much better.
It's got 10 million views.
And I wonder how much money he made from that.
It's him having a hot dog barbecue outside of these, I guess, vegan protesters who are mad.
This is probably in suburban Toronto, like Etobicoke or Mississauga or something, just outside the city center.
The queens of, actually more like the Westchester of Toronto.
And he goes to these protesters.
He has a barbecue.
And then he tries to give them some hot dogs.
They don't want any.
Play the very beginning because it starts out pretty good with a highlight.
Which, by the way, always start out with a highlight, folks.
All right, we're at a pig.
So this is the Antifa's perspective.
Slaughterhouse?
Giving them water, giving them love, and then these people show up.
They think it's fucking hilarious to come and set up a barbecue right in front of us.
They just came up with a steam road as we were bearing witness to the truck and brought over a hot dog.
Can you just pause?
Isn't that huge?
What?
Bearing witness?
Bearing witness.
That shows you how the new left, the alt-left, is a religion.
They have all these religious tendencies.
Even the chants where they're like, Mike Check, Mike Check, these people are here.
There was a guy who was going to the Met or the Brooklyn Museum, and it was a pro-Palestinian.
Thing you're going to dig this up on your own time.
Let's test you.
Let's test your skills, Japrikin.
Oh, me.
Yeah.
And it was a pro-Palestinian art show in Brooklyn or New York.
Maybe it was the Met.
I don't think so.
I think it was like MoMA or the Brooklyn Museum.
And he went there to ask people questions.
He was Jewish.
And he went there to ask people questions about this show.
And their reaction was very aggressive.
Like they were going to kill him because he dared be on the side of Israel.
And then there was a curious thing where there's some fat, gay artist started yelling out, Mike Check, Mike Check.
And they go, this person, this person does not belong here.
Does not belong here.
It was Religion is, it's actually an insult to Christianity to call it a religion.
It's a cult.
It's a bizarre, repetitive cult.
Anyway, you can dig that up on your own time.
That's your challenge for today's episode, Ryan.
Okay.
Okay.
My wife always makes fun of me one time.
I went to get my passport renewed in Canada and we were in Ottawa.
And I finally got there and I go to open the door and the guy goes, what are you doing?
And I said, oh, I'm here to renew my passport.
He goes, we're closed.
We've been closed for 10 minutes.
It's 4 o'clock.
And I just went, oh, okay.
And in our marriage, it's come to mean when you are instantly cowed and don't put up a fight whatsoever.
Dude, you're in Israel.
This is Brooklyn.
Oh.
All right.
Anyway, back to the show.
You have to simultaneously do this while you're doing the show.
So you have to hope you get an opening while I'm blabbing.
True.
True det.
Oh, okay.
Maybe that'll become a t-shirt for the show.
Oh, okay.
It's when you know there's no arguing.
Like I'm talking to a government employee.
What am I going to do?
Come on, man.
Don't break my balls.
Would this loonie change your mind?
That's the Canadian dollar coin.
Oh, how about a tunie?
How about four tunis and a loony?
I know it weighs about a pound.
That's what I hate about Europe.
Your pockets constantly weigh about 30 pounds.
That's awful.
You know what they do in Scotland, in Glasgow?
It's a trick.
Everyone's too cheap to ever throw away money.
So you reach in your pocket and you take out the like six bucks you have in change, which weighs as much as a ski boot.
And then you just go, hey, come here, what is that?
What is that?
And he goes, what?
And then you just put all the change in his hand and walk away.
And now he has six pounds, both the currency and the weight in his hand.
And he has to put that in his pocket.
And his pockets are just bowling balls for the rest of the night.
You know what I've started doing?
And you're not going to like this, but I've started just, especially when I'm in the city, especially when I'm on my way back to Grand Central, I just sort of pick out all the change in my hand and just go, get this out of here.
I've seen it shatter it everywhere.
Remember, I thought that that could have been misinterpreted as an anti-Semitic thing.
Oh, because there's a lot of people.
Because there was a guy there.
He was walking.
Go pick up your shekels, Jew.
That could be just poorly misinterpreted.
It's like, no, he's just an ass.
There was some businessman the last time I did it who kept looking back, kind of pissed off.
Yeah.
No, it's not meant to be anti-Semitic.
We're ready for my once-a-month barbecue for Fury.
The Caremans is the name of the slaughter hoose.
I drill all the time.
Hopefully this can be a really good turnout.
So a buddy of ours just did a bit of recon when up the street, and apparently my barbecue is a success.
Word got out, and there's a lot of people there.
A lot of hungry people ready for some hot dogs.
So, uh...
You don't have your hair and a ponytail and your bodybuilding muscles out.
Although he's wearing the same shirt.
You hungry?
No, he's got a butterfly apron.
This is how you mock the left.
You don't get in there.
They're not worth a debate.
When was the last time you saw a debate?
Like William F. Buckley and Gore Vidal.
Those days are gone.
These people are too soft.
Oh, he goes to McDonald's first because he thinks hot dogs are gross.
Which doesn't fit the narrative of the meat-eating video.
Hot dogs are so bad.
All right, skip ahead a bit.
I'm at my annual monthly cookout where I can cook out hot dogs for the Fearman's employees.
And apparently it's a pretty good trail.
There's a bunch of people over there.
Cigars make me light-headed.
I think I should put it out.
I used to hate when Americans would make fun of me for saying oot.
And now that I'm here, I hear it.
I could never hear it before.
You say process instead of process.
Look at them.
Oh, they're feeding the pigs.
What's the stick?
I do feel bad for pigs, but I will continue to eat them until I die.
Look at this.
Cross the road right now will call the cops.
What's the charge?
Yeah, you're the one feeding...
Yeah.
You're touching product.
What's the stick?
What's on the end of a stick?
Money?
A piece of gum?
Right.
Here, pig, have some gum.
That looks like a good dog.
I was just going to say that.
That looks real good.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
I got hot dogs.
You got to see this girl's tits that he's with.
She is.
There we go.
I got burns.
I got red.
She's also Eastern European.
Sweet La Mamlowski or something is her name.
I think I'm becoming into Eastern European chicks.
always be turned off by the accent because it they sound like suck slaves but if they were born here It's a little bit choppy.
That's them getting high on their own supply.
That's the equivalent of Scarface with cocaine all over his face.
One more hot dogs.
Say hello to my little dog.
Oh, she does rebel videos too, right?
Yeah, I don't think he's dating her.
This is like, remember when James O'Keefe was on the cover of the New York Post dressed as a pimp?
Dig that up.
Look at those bazooms.
That's another challenge for you.
Alright, that's enough.
James O'Keeffe dressed like a pimp.
Yeah.
Also, look up Pathetic Millennial on my Skype.
I've spoken to him recently and you should be able to call him.
You want me to call him now?
All right.
But first, find the James O'Keeffe thing.
He blew it with this chick.
Guys, if you're doing political actions, no, images, near post-cover.
There she is.
There she is.
He's like Ferris Bueller.
Yeah, that picture.
He blew it with her.
He didn't court her properly.
He didn't buy her flowers.
Stop going to James, Dude, I'm looking for other pictures.
When you click a picture, sometimes it comes up with yeah, there you go.
Like a bigger picture.
There you go.
He's wearing a leather.
There you go.
What a catch.
Like, you just should have married her.
Although, I think he's doing pretty well now, actually.
What a looker.
Any Hizzel, sometimes I think we should just get back to the days where you married the first one you liked when you were 16.
The greatest generations marriage.
The way that worked.
Notice they didn't have divorce.
No, it's because divorce was just not done.
Really?
First of all, my grandmother got divorced.
And secondly, yes, that's possible.
It's possible that people didn't get divorced back then because it was unacceptable.
It's also possible that their marriage was going pretty good because they got married early and they grew up together.
All right.
Can you find him on Skype?
Yeah.
Dig him up.
Let's bump.
Let's bump it.
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago.
And you remember...
Hi, pathetic.
What's up?
How's it going?
Pretty good.
Yourself?
I'm okay.
We're just going through some...
And we were going through your video at the barbecue, and it's really just perfect.
What's it at now?
Like 10 million?
Yeah, about 10 million, 10 million, 100,000.
I heard that you lost a bunch of money because there's music in it that you don't own.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
I had a meeting with Ezra Levant, and like at the time, it had 6 million views.
And he's like, did you monetize that?
I'm like, I'm trying to.
And then he's like, oh, if you had it monetized, you'd make about, I don't know, $20,000.
And I'm like, all right, well, for the sake of comedy, I'll leave the music in.
But did you make money on it?
No, I've made about $100 off of YouTube.
Yeah, everyone.
You have to make like tens of millions regularly to make that a business.
There's probably like 100 people who make serious money on YouTube, like any kind of real money.
But I'm watching it, and I'm looking at these stupid Torontonians who are threatening to call the police because you're near them with a hot dog.
I don't know what that...
And I was like, okay.
I was like, I think that might be cannibalism if they eat a hot dog.
But you know what my takeaway was this time, because things change over time.
My new takeaway is, what is going on with Toronto?
It's turned, and I never say Toronto, Toronto.
It needs all the pronunciation.
It's turned into crazier than Berkeley.
It's pretty fucked up.
It's like the past three years, it's gone full-on Trump derangement syndrome.
Yeah, well, like me and Jessica from the Rebel, we went to Ryerson University in Toronto, and we asked people, I came up with this idea, I came up with it, would you rather live under one year of Kim Jong-un or four years under Trump?
And a lot of people chose Kim Jong-un.
I was like, shorted.
This guy's like, I feel like it's own little tight community.
Nobody comes in, nobody goes out.
I'm like, yeah, I don't think they're allowed to.
Yeah, it's a tight community.
That's a great way of putting it.
Everybody's starving together.
It's awesome.
I honestly think they'd prefer that.
Is Jessica your girlfriend?
No.
So those boobs are nothing to do with you.
Fuck that up.
Those are something else, man.
They're very distracting.
I know.
It's hard to work with her.
When she was in Manchester talking to people about Tommy Robinson, I think it helped them act more stupid.
It helped make them look worse.
That's it.
Because they were going, ha-ba-ba-ba-ha-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.
Yeah, that's me what I'm holding the camera for.
What did you say?
So what's the future for Toronto?
Because Faith Goldie, she's pretty far right.
But I look at, what are you doing there chugging that thing?
Are you that thirsty?
A bit, yeah.
Sorry, I'll stop.
You can't wait.
You couldn't wait to drink before or after the thing?
Hold on.
Ugh.
You pathetic millennials and your stupid robot dicks.
Look.
No.
No, don't do it in here.
So is there any blowback from you doing that vegan thing?
Do people throw tofu at you on the streets or anything?
Are you the bad guy?
No, I like.
I'm pretty, I don't want to say like I'm, I guess, well known in my area or whatever.
People just say, like, are you the bar?
Are you the hot dog guy?
And I'm like, yeah.
And people just, you know, they like it and stuff.
I've only gotten hate like on the internet, like vegan, like this one guy said, I wish I was there so I could kill you.
And I was like, okay, sure.
That doesn't sound very vegan.
I thought they're against killing animals.
Because the way I look at Toronto these days is I think if you're known as, you know, anyone slightly right of far, far, far, far left, you're a monster.
Toronto is now Berkeley.
It's now Madison.
It's now Seattle.
It's now West Hollywood.
It's one of those, like, it's in the top 10 of crazy towns.
So it could be bad for you.
Eh, whatever.
I ain't afraid of it.
It's whatever.
It's fun to fuck with people.
All right.
Well, you did a great job, and it was fun checking in on you.
I like you more than a friend.
Oh, thanks.
You too.
So Ryan and I are trying to cut down on our carbs.
No bread.
So we are not having buns.
This looks like, as my colleague pointed out, how you would get if you ordered a hot dog in China.
And they're like, yes, we give you a hot dog.
I actually had a hot dog in Japan.
When Vice opened Vice Japan, they had like a, oh, Canada, we have, oh, Canada and Maple Leaf.
And they had all this like pro-Canada stuff.
And they had hot dogs for us, but they were sliced into little bites that you could have with chopsticks.
That's awesome.
They were really good, too.
That's a hot dog for you.
Sometimes hot dogs have pig ears and chicken feet and toenails and hooves and human eyeballs.
Well then your meat detritus is delicious.
That's true.
No part goes to waste is what, you know, is the point there.
Yeah, I would be pissed off if I was chewing along and I just like bit into a chicken toenail and I go, oh guys, come on.
But they really mash it down.
So it's not an issue.
Speaking of pathetic millennial, I wouldn't call them a YouTuber per se, but YouTubers, we should check in on them, not because we give a shit about whether they live or die, but because they sort of conduct the discussion for, I don't know, everyone from the age of well, six to 21.
That's about right.
Well, you're 29.
You give a shit about these losers.
Yes, you do.
Kind of.
Just for the record, Ryan cares about James Charles, and he drinks a pinkity-drinkity every day.
That's because my girlfriend got me into it.
Oh, okay.
It's fascinating.
Okay.
So James Charles is in trouble because James Charles, by the way, is a male makeup artist who wears sorter chew on the microphone.
Who does makeup tutorials.
He's a beauty guru, and he was in trouble with another beauty guru, who's a woman named Tatty, because he hit on a male waiter, sorry, a male waiter who wasn't gay.
And Tatty thought that was tacky.
She also thought that he doesn't promote her products enough.
This is a big deal to these zeros, but they have tens of millions of followers, and your kids will care about what they have to say, so you should care.
So let's see how long we can listen to James Charles respond to the allegations that he hits on straights and doesn't promote makeup enough.
Yeah.
Response.
Okay.
So, you know, that queued up?
I don't.
Why not?
That was in yesterday's notes, right?
It's in today's notes.
Dick Face.
I got you pinkity-drinkity yesterday, by the way.
I don't care.
Why are you showing me this?
This isn't the video.
This is someone's commentary on it.
Dumbass?
Joe, check the notes.
James Charles has responded to Tati.
Do you know any other Do you know any other show like this?
How many times are you watching Tucker Carlson?
And they say, dumbass?
Go check the notes.
Zero times.
Hey, remember.
So there's the video.
Hey, remember when James Charles, Tatty Westbrook, YouTube drama?
Well, it just got weirder.
So here he is responding to it.
If you scroll down, I can't believe I know more about this imbecile than you.
That's going to be a commercial.
Oh, good.
It isn't.
Can you imagine that was your son?
The video that Tati Westbrook uploaded to her channel titled "My Sister." Before I say anything at all, in this video I wanna make it very Notice the hand movements.
That everything I said in that video with my sentiments towards Tati and my apology.
I stand behind 100% and still reign true.
Now, if you were paying attention to this even slightly, Jeffree Star is another homosexual and go to your own face.
Okay.
Your own stupid face.
It's a regular face.
So Jeffree Star jumped in on this, and then Taddy is this, like, she's a 40-year-old woman who happens to be friends with, like, he's like 19 years old.
Try to get to the part where it's even conceivable that I would care.
Well, it's almost like a Me Too thing where she's trying to say that a straight guy.
Yeah, I already mentioned that.
Yeah, yeah.
But here's what's funny.
The straight guy came out with a video and he was like, yeah, I thought I was gay, so I went to his hotel room and kissed him for an hour, but then realized I'm not gay.
And he's LA straight.
What world are we living in where men are so brainwashed into being not homophobic that they go for an hour and go, nah, this isn't my cup.
One hour.
That used to be pretty normal.
You used to know you're not gay.
Yeah, it doesn't take that long.
So, but then in the text and stuff like that, I guess the.
Look how animated all of a sudden Ryan's become.
We finally are in his wheel.
Because I'm panicking for you.
The show joy.
I'm trying to get you to the point where you get that this is just take the gay stuff away.
All these people are piling on this 19-year-old, and then in this rebuttal video, he debunks all of it.
They tried to Me Too him.
He's one of the meetings.
You talk about the man behind the pinkity drinkety.
He's actually one of the guys.
Yeah.
All right.
He's bro.
He's trying to be.
You made him way cooler.
You're trying to me too him.
This is like when people are really into the Bible and they want you to be into it, so they coolify it and they go, so Jesus was like, fuck this to the archangels.
And the archangels were like, man, I had enough of this guy's bullshit.
So Jesus and God got together and they said, fuck you to Damocles.
And then Isaiah and Caleb showed up and they were like, what the fuck?
And you go, wow, I didn't know the Bible was so badass.
Yeah.
Thanks for making James Charles cool.
Anyway, go back to your literally gay video.
Wait, who's that?
This is the guy who went to James' hotel and made out with him for an hour.
Okay, this is not gay.
I don't care.
I'm talked about.
The I'm a celebrity thing is really incredibly frustrating to me because this is an inside joke between my friends and I'm not sure if you guys are.
Screenshots, screenshots, screen grabs.
This is something far worse than what it is.
This is a joke that really is where we say I'm famous, not I'm a celebrity.
And it's something that we don't say in public very often because without context, I get it.
It looks and sounds really, really bad.
Trust me.
Pretty much positive here.
Can you imagine how annoyed you'd be if even a woman acted like that?
Yeah.
Like it's your wife's friend and you go, can you not have Sandy come over ever again?
If she's coming over, tell me and I'll go to the bar.
I hate her quotes and her this and all that.
She acts like James Charles.
With the hand thing?
Yeah.
He talks about how he's a bad kisser.
Shut up.
This is making me hate you.
I've ever kissed.
Way too much time.
All right.
Note take in.
After making out Sam for over an hour, I'm done.
Why?
This reminds me of Aziz Ansari's case, by the way.
Remember where she said he raped her and she talked about performing fallatio on the young Indian gentleman like seven times, but he was way too horny for her or something like that?
And you go, I don't usually fallate my rapists.
It's one of my rules.
That would be a good t-shirt.
Don't fallate your rapists.
Oh, man, dude.
That's the angle Aziz should have taken on that whole controversy.
All right, we're running out of time here.
I want to also confirm.
Wait, what are you doing?
That's Jeffree Star, by the way.
He does this every single video.
I've never done this before.
Look at that.
People were upset that you didn't fully go into detail about it or what.
So I get.
I mean, full disclosure, half the palette is pressed pigments.
I was very clear about that and very open and all that.
I think it's a lot of fun.
Charles Charlish.
This is a little video I like to call Dad Hell.
Welcome to hell, Dad.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jeffree Star is a real ghoul, though.
And he says, like, Yas Queen.
And I just pretty much want to.
You know what would be funny if they had two dads and it was these guys' fathers and Satan showed up and he said, look, I know you want to have sex with Kim Kardashian and the whole Kardashians except the mom.
I can make that happen.
But you'll have to do something for me.
And they're like, anything, you name it.
We're dynam all those girls.
And they go, okay, get ready for an awesome, whatever they are, fivesome.
And then the two dads do it.
They're like, I don't care what Satan's got up his sleeve.
He can give me cancer now.
That was awesome.
And then Satan goes, here's my revenge, gentlemen.
And they go, no.
Oh, oh.
Warm tones, bokey eyes.
Although I want it to be used for the rainbow colors, obviously 12.
So yeah, there's that.
My wife would be so mad if she knew that I didn't want that for my boys.
What?
Are you a jock now?
She always says that when I say anything remotely homophobic because she's a fag hag.
In the best of ways, of course.
Okay, so that's homosexuals, and obviously they're going to seem pretty gay.
Check out the straits.
So there's this guy, Cody Coe.
By the way, every time I say these names, know that they have 10 million followers.
I wouldn't be wasting your time with these irrelevant YouTubers if they weren't incredibly relevant to a certain demographic.
And as far as young people go, not just millennials, Gen Y, Gen Z, these guys are huge.
So there's this annoying guy named Jake Paul, who I guess is the brother of another big guy, the guy who was making fun of people who had hanged themselves in a Japanese forest.
What's his name?
Yeah, yeah.
John Paul?
What's the other, the main Paul?
Yeah, I know you're talking about this.
Paul Suicide Forest.
Now he was making fun of the Japanese Suicide Forest.
His name is Logan Paul.
Logan Paul.
So Logan Paul was in a suicide forest.
That was a big deal.
And he was like, oh my God, this is so like whatever.
I hate it.
It's like weird.
And he has a big YouTube career where they make good money.
These guys make millions of dollars doing this absolute garbage.
So his brother, Jake Paul, was in a, he had some rapper getting his super awesome Tesla SUV.
And then this other guy, look, I'm as embarrassed as you right now.
But it's important we know about this because this is what our kids are going to be watching.
Millions of people, yeah.
Like I talked about Toy Story the other day setting up a bad narrative for kids where Little Bull Peep is helping poor Woody rock and roll.
So this is relevant.
But Cody Coe is making fun of Jake Paul for being a brown-noser to a brown guy.
Show some of that.
I think I have it queued up to an okay part.
Confronting.
Yeah.
No, that's not the part.
Is it Jake?
Oh, yeah.
Sorry.
I'm wrong.
You're right.
But show the first thing.
All right.
So he's confronting him.
So that guy getting up from the barber chair is the guy making fun of this guy, Jake Paul.
There's a douchebag named Cody Ko, and we are about to f his life up.
Is that a good intro?
His mom's in the room.
Thanks, mom.
Nah, I'm just kidding.
Kind of.
Not really.
I'm about to confront like one of my biggest haters, 28-year-old wannabe comedian, Cody Ko.
Or I saw this Cody Ko guy for the first time when he was working at Full Screen, which is like a YouTube community network as like a little back-end tech developer.
And now he just shits on people to become famous.
That's it.
I'm not hero.
It's part of the short attention span of millennials.
And like, you know, do like all this stuff.
I can definitely watch these YouTubers for seconds upon seconds at a time.
But let's show the thing he's making fun of.
This Cody Ko guy is actually pretty funny.
And they're laughing at this Jake Paul guy for being an ass licker to a cool rich guy.
Yeah, there you go.
Oh, brown nose, brown nose, brown nose, brown house, brown house.
Play your song, man.
Oh, I'm a big old wife for that.
Get your necklace on.
If you check it out, play your song.
21 Savage.
So I guess 21 Savage is a big rapper, and he's driving around with 21 Savage, listening to 21 Savage, wearing a 21 Savage necklace.
That's worthy of ridicule.
The night before reading Rap Genius.
like...
Fucking Team 10 as flash cards and just moving them through the song.
No, you got it wrong.
You say La Roche!
Some people say I'm a Savage, too.
Why'd he say that?
Stop it.
Stop it.
The fucking oh really face.
Oh, this is kind of what we are.
And he's kind of Asian, like you.
He literally killed people.
I think this is a very healthy thing for young men to do, is to mock other young men, especially when they're famous icons making tons of money, being butt kissers.
the angle, though, that Jake Paul chose for that was that he's confronting a cyberbully because cyberbullying is a big problem.
Yeah, cyberbullying, when we talk about that, we're talking about mean girls who are making a fat nine-year-old girl want to kill herself, and we don't want that nine-year-old girl to die.
We're not talking about grown men being ridiculed.
Let's see what happens here.
They're just douchebag names.
No, fast forward to the actual confrontation.
Is that a good intro?
It's gonna be so lame, too, because men are put.
Just fight.
They should just fight.
Were you trying to fight me?
What up, fam?
Be nice.
I don't want to fight.
Do that again.
Sit down.
Do what again?
Come in, but uh.
Come in what?
Nicer?
Come in nicer, dude.
You don't care.
Cyberbullies, kids, bro.
Kids?
You're kidding.
Which kids?
I don't like cyber bullies, and you're a cyber bully.
I'm sorry, man.
You said sorry, that's good.
Did he say I'm sorry?
Yeah, but like, Super Shitty didn't grin.
Like, yeah, bro.
Sorry, dude.
You actual.
You hurt little kids.
You were picking on kids with Down syndrome who were overweight.
No, it's making fun of you.
All right, anyway.
Right of time.
You said sorry, that's good.
But I feel dirty after looking into your generation's filth.
The kind of things that you care about, Jake Paul and all that.
We're in a rough time here.
When I was that age, I was into black flag.
I know that sounds cooler than, like I'm trying to say, I was so cool and you guys suck.
That's exactly what I'm saying.
My youth was way cooler than your youth.
You guys suck, pinkity drinkity.
Get fired.
Get in trouble.
Be brave and never stop fighting.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Wait, wait, wait.
I found the video.
I think in support of Gaza.
Let's go talk to some people, see what's going on.
So you two have to leave.
This is not for you guys.
So you guys need to leave.
Yeah, because we're not.
This is an anti-racist space and right-wing supporters, Trump supporters are not welcome.
I'm not a racist.
Oh, yeah.
If you're a Zionist.
Mike Chuck.
Mike Jack.
There's a right-wing blogger.
These are right-wing bloggers.
This is what they do.
This is what they do.
We've notified the museum guards.
This is harassment.
This is harassment.
We're asking them again.
Yeah, that is pretty crazy that Mike check, would it?
