Live from New York, it's Get Off My Ron with Gavin McInnes. it's Get Off My Ron with Gavin McInnes. | |
Soft shirt, blue, this day started to undo me and I knew that I couldn't win. | |
I won't steal your love. | |
No notes. | |
This is off the dome tonight. | |
Off the dome! | |
Y'all ready for this? | |
Ryan, are you all ready for this? | |
Hell yes! | |
Now you're LARPing as a country guy? | |
Like a cowpoke or something? | |
Cowpoke? | |
I don't have the hat. | |
Um, you, uh, you were going to become goth, whatever happened with that? | |
It's too expensive, honestly, and I don't have enough knowledge on, like, the clothes. | |
It's really, really expensive. | |
It was like $50 for a cool shirt that's tattered and black. | |
So you're giving up? | |
Yes. | |
Not goth? | |
I have, like, one outfit, and I don't know how to do my own makeup and stuff, and that was going to be a big part of it. | |
I want to dye my hair. | |
Black? | |
No, I wanted to do it, like, blue. | |
Like, shiny, crazy blue. | |
I was gonna go to Philadelphia, there's this group of goths that love the show, and I was gonna have them just do me all up. | |
But, it would've cost, like, maybe three or four hundred dollars. | |
So that, can't do that. | |
You know, you suck so bad, I don't even, like, I don't mind. | |
It's like shrimp. | |
Like, I don't want shrimp. | |
You don't like shrimp? | |
I don't like shrimp. | |
They're the cockroaches of the sea. | |
But they're good. | |
No, they're gross. | |
And when people offer me shrimp, I'm like, no thanks. | |
So, with you, I'm just like, no thanks. | |
Alright. | |
Not interested. | |
Lobster is a giant cockroach in the sea. | |
If I got a budget, I would have done it. | |
But I didn't feel like I was letting anybody else down but me. | |
I don't care. | |
If you put a rifle in your mouth in front of me and blew your head off, I would go, holy shit, wow. | |
Look at that. | |
The blood goes everywhere. | |
Are we going to get that off the walls? | |
That would be a first. | |
It's like my dog. | |
Dude, the fucking leak is gone. | |
Yeah. | |
And the part that was leaking is healed up like a fucking wound. | |
Yes. | |
What? | |
I saw that as it came in. | |
I was like, let's see. | |
There's literally not a slit in the ceiling. | |
It's gone. | |
It's been erased! | |
I know. | |
Umberto was right! | |
Congratulations. | |
Thank you. | |
I called him an idiot. | |
I called him an asshole. | |
I said that's not how sheetrock works. | |
It doesn't heal itself. | |
Dude, it has healed itself. | |
To the umpteenth degree. | |
Wait a minute. | |
What the fuck? | |
I cannot... I can't even see where the hole was. | |
No. | |
I think it may be like a dog whistle level visual difference where it's like maybe a spider could see it, but it looks like somebody painted it over. | |
Someone fucking with us? | |
Yeah. | |
I didn't know what to expect when we came in, like full bucket or... I know, celebs! | |
Collapse ceiling. | |
Like George Clooney shrunk. | |
Matt Damon's shoes and pants down half an inch every day when they were shooting something? | |
That's a good prank. | |
Is this a good prank? | |
The hole's gone. | |
Anyway, clearly we are less and less popular as the days go by. | |
This is our sponsor list today. | |
You may have noticed I'm drunk out of my mind, by the way, but I'm still doing a great job because that's the way the Scots are. | |
JohnnyAppleCBD, proud sponsor. | |
Our ad guy says, say whatever you want, please be nice. | |
He says, say the website and promo code with discount two times, so he's obviously dialing it in too. | |
He's like, do whatever you want, yeah. | |
And then, he writes out, www dot, he writes out the word dot. | |
No. | |
Yes. | |
JACBD.com, enter promo code Gavin, 20% off all orders. | |
Alright, I'll do my best. | |
We love this company. | |
They've been with us since day one. | |
We've had a lot of people drop out. | |
America Whiskey, they dropped out. | |
Blue Chew? | |
Blue Chew we lost. | |
I think Bub and Hanks is gone. | |
No. | |
I don't know. | |
Maybe they just take, they take breaks sometimes. | |
They take breaks. | |
There was a lot sold out on their site before. | |
Edibles are fantastic. | |
The cream is great for sore muscles. | |
The tinctures take the edge off your coffee. | |
I understand if you're against CBD, that's fine. | |
Then we're out. | |
Stop talking. | |
But if you are into CBD, then go to johnnyapple.com. | |
Promo code GAVIN and use their shit because they support free speech. | |
They have weathered the storm with us. | |
Yeah, I looked up a little bit about it. | |
It's a real thing. | |
It's not like snake oil or something. | |
There's like, I'll go to get my vapes and there's always like CBD there. | |
And then I, so I looked it up and it does a lot. | |
Are you drunk too? | |
No. | |
Does a lot for my back when I'm playing video games for a long time. | |
It helps you just kind of just. | |
So my wife was in the city today with her dog, our dog, and she didn't want to drag him around. | |
So she said, um, Ryan, can you look after the dog? | |
Bring over the old guy. | |
This is at 3 10 p.m. | |
And you were asleep in the studio. | |
2 46. | |
What is that about? | |
I just... | |
I don't know, my schedule's off. | |
I've been playing video games a lot lately. | |
What video game? | |
I got the brand new Call of Duty, 60 bucks. | |
Bop! | |
Finished the campaign. | |
And now I'm doing online, so I'm shooting up people and I'm like, I'm actually good at this. | |
I remember sucking. | |
But I'm like, you know, top three a lot of the times. | |
So you're like me, you're a war vet. | |
Basically, I'm a war vet of movies. | |
You're a war vet of video games I don't like to talk about it too much because it it just brings back you know horrible memories. | |
Yeah, I know how it feels Don't ask me about saving Private Ryan, dude. | |
I know so we should go to the Legion We should go to these you know places where you get beers for three bucks each Oh, they do that? | |
Yeah, yeah, these war vet places. | |
That's true. | |
I get, like, discounts and stuff when I go to AMC, which I'm investing in now. | |
Have you heard about this whole... Yeah, GameStop is... Wait, wait, there seems to be two things. | |
So there's AMC and GameStop. | |
Is that the same... And Nokia. | |
Well, it's basically, it's... So, uh, hedge funds, people that are in hedge funds bet to short, like, that the company's gonna do bad. | |
So, like, Blockbuster does really shitty, obviously. | |
And then GameStop, for some reason, they were banking on it to do bad. | |
So the worse it does, the better they do. | |
But people blew up the stock by, they coordinated on Reddit and on Discord. | |
They're banned now, but it's WallStreetBets. | |
And they just got banned for hate speech because they're taking money from the hedge fund people. | |
So that's interesting. | |
So when we are in peril, we get banned. | |
When they are in peril, the hedge funds, they ban the system. | |
Yeah, they get bailouts, and then when normal people, you know, like their business goes under, they don't get bailouts. | |
They just go under. | |
And when regular average Joes are making money in the stock market, and by the way, they lost $14 million, or they're set to lose about $14 million. | |
$14 billion, actually. | |
The hedge funds. | |
Okay. | |
They owe $14 billion collectively. | |
I think that's the amount there. | |
I don't know the whole scoop, but that's the scoop I got. | |
In our music group, we got a guy who's all about, like look up market mania. | |
And one of our guys is in there and they just talk about this whole thing. | |
So I don't quite understand. | |
So GameStop said, or someone said that GameStop is available in the stock market and people started investing in it. | |
I think it's been available. | |
But people started investing in GameStop like crazy. | |
I know Cassandra Fairbanks was talking about it. | |
Yeah. | |
And now it's valid at $10 billion. | |
No, right now it was like a couple of cents or a couple of bucks and now it's up to $320 a share. | |
But it's all fake. | |
No, it's real. | |
I mean, but you know, so the people that put the... Inflated. | |
Yeah, yeah. | |
I like the way my chest hair goes. | |
It looks like a tree. | |
Yeah. | |
And then they did the same thing with... With who else? | |
Nokia and the AMC theaters. | |
And then Blackberry, I think, is another one that they're looking at. | |
Just like these dead stocks that people bank on doing horrible. | |
Tim Pool explains it pretty well. | |
Dude, listen. | |
This is pretty crazy. | |
Wall Street is panicking right now because the average Joes are taking their money back. | |
I love it. | |
This is crazy, man. | |
Check this out. | |
Why is this guy's head so cold at all times? | |
It's warm. | |
It's blazing hot. | |
Why is this guy's head so cold at all times? | |
Broken. | |
It's warm. | |
It's blazing hot. | |
Like AMC. | |
Why? | |
Because the system is broken. | |
For too long, the wealthy elites, the hedge funds, have found a way to strip the value from the working class and make billions for themselves. | |
And finally, a group of internet forum users decided enough was enough. | |
This is an update on a story I covered earlier this morning, but for those that aren't familiar, A subreddit called WallStreetBets decided that they were tired of the media and market manipulation corrupt journalists propping up and shooting down stocks to steal money from regular people. | |
And they decided to squeeze out these hedge funds. | |
They bet against GameStop. | |
And so these four muses says, okay, you want to bet against retail? | |
We're going to invest in it for no reason, essentially. | |
Sending the value to the moon. | |
Well now, the establishment cronies and elites, these trading platforms are outraged, calling it market manipulation that must be stopped, demanding regulation. | |
The White House says we are monitoring the situation. | |
Why? | |
Because when the plebs find a way to use your system to make money and get rich, they panic. | |
Yeah, they're looking at, like, charging, like, a conspiracy of people that tried to pull this together. | |
By the way, Tim, it's not plebs, it's plebes. | |
It is plebes, yeah. | |
What are plebs? | |
I don't know, when you read it, it's plebs. | |
I read it! | |
Look, guys, I read it. | |
This is crazy, man. | |
Check this out. | |
Here's a fun book. | |
So we're done with that. | |
Fly Fishing with Darth Vader. | |
So this is Matt Labash. | |
It's really a collection of his essays, of his articles. | |
I don't know where he is right now. | |
He was very proficient, prolific 10 years ago, but you don't see him much these days. | |
Fly Fishing with Darth Vader is his seminal essay where he went fly fishing with Dick Cheney. | |
And it's a really, really well-written book. | |
A well-written compendium of essays. | |
Oh look, Donald Trump is in it. | |
This is before Donald Trump was president. | |
I forgot about that. | |
Shit. | |
Donald Trump is in this book, pre-president. | |
That's probably the best chapter. | |
So yeah, Matt LaBashe is a really good writer and he takes people at face value and he wrote this book about hanging out with dudes, which he really did, and judging them for who they are. | |
And that's becoming rarer and rarer these days. | |
Oh, we didn't discuss the songs. | |
The opening song was Rocket from the Crypt. | |
Well, I used to go to South by Southwest in the 90s and we would watch, um, it was so great back then, South by Southwest, and we would watch Rocket from the Crypt and, uh, Supernova and all these, the fuck emos, at the band, at the venue emos, and it was, A roaring ride. | |
You got in free, by the way, to Rocket from the Crypt shows if you had a Rocket from the Crypt tattoo, which is that rocket. | |
Which is probably where I got the Proud Boys tattoo thing from. | |
This is not a good pitch for Rocket from the Crypt. | |
Ryan, this looks terrible. | |
Don't they have a video? | |
Just them rockin' out. | |
They don't look like they're rockin' out. | |
This is on the rope. | |
And welcome to a brand new series of TFI Friday. | |
Friday night-- Oh, that woman's hot. | |
Yeah, that's better. | |
What kind of music is this? | |
Hardcore ska? | |
I was just thinking about that. | |
Ska ability? | |
Well they got the horns. | |
What's in this guy? | |
It's like hard rock and roll. | |
Ooh! | |
Brian, the central focus of Ska is the jet and jet and jet and jet that Jamaican... Ah, I see. | |
You can't take that away. | |
All right, let's jump right into the gossip, folks. | |
Crazy story in the news, Enrique Tarrio is being accused of being an informant. | |
Now, I usually talk to him on encrypted apps. | |
He's off. | |
I don't think that's his doing. | |
I've been talking about this all day with my criminal friends. | |
Extremist leader repeatedly worked undercover for investigators after his arrest in 2012. | |
Former prosecutor and court files reveal. | |
Who are those dudes next to him? | |
I've never seen that guy. | |
Have you? | |
No. | |
So here's the crazy part. | |
Say you're an FBI informant, right? | |
You have Teflon around you. | |
You would think. | |
So you don't get arrested when you go to DC. | |
You get welcomed to DC. | |
Yeah. | |
So that's, let's do all the sides for Enrique, and I tried calling him and everything, and I'm not gonna disparage him, and calling someone a snitch is one of the worst things you could ever do, so I'm not gonna do that until I have hardcore evidence. | |
But let's just present the cases just for fun, okay? | |
So here's the case for not a snitch. | |
You're Teflon if you're a snitch, so why was he arrested? | |
Why was he thrown, why was he told he couldn't come to DC ever again? | |
Why was he arrested for burning the BLM flag? | |
They should have said, why would he even take the blame for burning the BLM flag? | |
Which he didn't technically do. | |
That doesn't make sense. | |
The way you know a fed is, they get away with murder, literally. | |
And you go, wait, why did everyone around you go to jail and you didn't go to jail? | |
You must have been an informant. | |
Now it's possible that he wasn't informant. | |
That's conceivable. | |
Have you read these articles? | |
I read the article. | |
I actually don't have a problem with what he did at all. | |
Well some of them are cool. | |
He allegedly worked with the FBI. | |
To thwart human smugglers where he paid a guy 11 grand to bring his fictitious family over the border? | |
Yeah. | |
Okay, so he's thwarting coyotes there. | |
He's thwarting coyotes. | |
Yes. | |
That seems cool. | |
Yeah. | |
But then there's also shit in there about exposing marijuana grow houses. | |
Yeah, that's a little fae. | |
That doesn't seem very cool. | |
The ecstasy MDMA one, it's like, I mean the pharmaceuticals also, like things that probably kill people. | |
What was the ecstasy MDMA one? | |
He helped make a bust for that. | |
Wait, show your face. | |
It didn't go into much detail from that, but I was like, fuck him. | |
You know, that's, I mean, even people, if I was friends with somebody who did that, I'd be like, you know, you're on the tightrope. | |
You shouldn't be doing that, man. | |
It's dangerous. | |
So, listen. | |
Listen, wait, listen, so you would rat out your friends if they were making MDMA? | |
No, but I mean, what do the people look like that he ratted out? | |
Probably just Cuban criminals that, you know, but it's never like, I don't know, I don't have a problem with it. | |
Well, here's what I don't get. | |
So, say he was a snitch back in 2012, right? | |
Yeah. | |
He got arrested, he did his sentence, and then the snitching was post that. | |
So, did you make a deal and then they said you gotta do your time first? | |
Maybe. | |
Yeah. | |
Well, that seems kind of weird to me. | |
Doesn't it? | |
It's like we... Do your time first and then do a bunch of snitching for us. | |
Maybe it's like you stay out of parole or probation and you kind of give us some info here. | |
Wouldn't they make you do the snitching first? | |
I guess the snitching takes a while? | |
Anyway, in these articles they make him look like Snitchy McGee. | |
And that's totally possible. | |
Maybe it lessened his sentence. | |
By the way, Enrique's crimes are very ridiculous. | |
They were irrelevant. | |
He was selling test strips for diabetics. | |
Test strips that worked, but he wasn't licensed to sell them. | |
Okay. | |
Worst criminal ever. | |
Worst informant ever. | |
He's just doing the best thing. | |
And then I guess he took a plea and then maybe he did this, he allegedly did this snitching for like a couple years where he took down grow houses, human trafficking things, fake drug people. | |
So that's one side of the argument. | |
The other side is he's been an informant all along and this is what's interesting about these two sides is There's perception and reality, as my old vice founder Shane would always say. | |
As far as the history books go, it doesn't really matter what the truth is. | |
So it's fun for us to sort of willy-nilly discuss our theories and even what Enrique says and the back and forth, because the history books will not necessarily reflect the truth. | |
The history books will reflect the most reasonable thing. | |
Like say some, okay, how about this Ryan? | |
Some, you date some girl, right? | |
Sure. | |
And she was dating a cop before you. | |
Right. | |
And he was fucking pissed off that you, and I hate to disparage the police, but Let's say a fed. | |
He's pissed off that you got her. | |
So he planted meth on you. | |
Ooh. | |
Right? | |
Yeah. | |
And then he arrested you and you went to jail. | |
And then someone made a video of you and I talking really fast. | |
And it was like, Proud Boys founder and producer who was caught with meth on meth or whatever. | |
And then we would just be the meth show. | |
Right? | |
And that would become the law of the land. | |
That would just become the story. | |
Forever. | |
Yeah. | |
You know, when I was reading Enrique's article, it was like, the things that, like, the story was this new information about the FBI informant thing. | |
And then they sneak in a whole bunch of just facts now, where, like, whether there was the domestic terrorist attack on the capitals. | |
Like, whoa! | |
That wasn't solid yet. | |
That's hearsay. | |
That's like a way to look at it. | |
And they're like Proud Boys extremist group. | |
And I was like, how did we get here? | |
Right. | |
So it's, it's, their narrative is kind of weird because it's, it's like the head of the Proud Boys was an FBI informant is the narrative. | |
So you go, okay, so the FBI is not good at hiding their informants. | |
Right. | |
Yeah. | |
Word just got out. | |
Why would they let that happen though? | |
Like why? | |
But secondly, so that means the whole movement was a lie. | |
Right. | |
Cause it was run by an informant. | |
So we're an inside, we actually work for Biden. | |
So the whole thing is an inside job? | |
Okay. | |
I do think it was unusual to jump ahead here to plan B, which is the narrative is true. | |
Um, that Enrique really wanted me to do a speech at January 6th. | |
And there was a guy who looked exactly like me with my same beard and same glasses marching around. | |
Are those coincidences? | |
I think so. | |
And cops going like this. | |
I'm drifting from Enrique now and now I'm talking about a general conspiracy. | |
Cops going like this after removing the barricade. | |
And I saw a filmmaker. | |
I met him a couple nights ago. | |
He was showing me pictures. | |
He was there. | |
And he showed me a picture of the Capitol at around 11 a.m. | |
One cop. | |
And he goes, how many cops do you think should be around the Capitol at any time or when there's a demonstration coming? | |
Probably a bunch. | |
So there's a lot of fishy shit going on. | |
If we had a newspaper, I'd say it'd be safe to cement down that Pelosi and a couple of the people allowed people into the building to maximize potential damage to capitalize off of it later. | |
Well, here's a guess. | |
And I'm going to go back to Charlottesville. | |
Not physically for the audience. | |
Nor were they ever there. | |
I was so there with my tiki torch. | |
Right. | |
I think that major law enforcement is inept. | |
When I talk to criminals that are like coke dealers and stuff, or Max and John getting arrested, I see raging incompetence. | |
I think the FBI, the CIA, the top brass in major police forces are terrible at their job. | |
I think low-level cops Guys walking the beat are much better at getting bad guys than the top brass. | |
And that's why I always say, fuck the police's boss. | |
So, what I think is going on here is there's tons of money, millions of dollars invested into stopping crime. | |
Unfortunately, MS-13 is an impermeable membrane They were born in El Salvador. | |
They have facial tattoos. | |
There's not enough Hispanic FBI guys to infiltrate that. | |
Real bonafide crime syndicate. | |
Those guys are actually very dangerous. | |
Your daughter could OD on fentanyl from them. | |
They're in the suburbs. | |
They're dealing oxy. | |
They're dealing opioids. | |
They're dealing fentanyl. | |
Your daughter, your son, your fucking you could die. | |
From them, dealing that. | |
It's open borders and big pharma combined have led to MS-13 distributing big oxy across the entire country, especially in the Rust Belt, especially in redneck places, especially where people are out of work like Ohio. | |
But the amazing thing about it is it involves upper middle class, rich, poor, everyone. | |
That's real crime. | |
20 blacks killed by 20 blacks every day. | |
That's real crime. | |
But the left has failed at conquering those problems. | |
So they need a scapegoat. | |
So what do they do? | |
They say it's white supremacy. | |
Systemic racism. | |
That's the problem. | |
And that's much easier to infiltrate because we're innocent. | |
And when I say we, I mean the alleged white supremacists, not actual white supremacists. | |
So they go on our Facebook. | |
They go on our phones. | |
And we're there stealing a podium from Nancy Pelosi going, Because we don't even know we're a threat. | |
We're wandering into shit. | |
So they double down, they triple down, they put all the money on us. | |
And they go, we got the proud boys. | |
So... I'm just guessing here, but... | |
It seems that the feds were involved in the Capitol. | |
It seems that the feds wanted it to happen. | |
They wanted to make a honey trap for dumb patriots, and I think it was dumb to storm the Capitol, for dumb patriots to go in and start wrecking shit and go, Hi, I'm at Nancy Pelosi's desk. | |
Here's my feet up. | |
And then they turn that into a sinister thing so they can arrest the opposition, so they can arrest Trump supporters and conservatives. | |
It's a Pearl Harbor. | |
What? | |
It's a Pearl Harbor-like-a-thing. | |
You have a tragedy, and then you could... ...do stuff about it. | |
But, Ryan... Pearl Harbor. | |
Can you just show the Detective Shitty icon, please? | |
Oh, the thing? | |
Yeah. | |
Oh, I... Ouch. | |
Terrible. | |
The Gulf of Tonkin. | |
Pearl Harbor was a tragedy. | |
What was worse? | |
The Capitol Hill invasion or Pearl Harbor? | |
I don't know what Twirl Harbor was. | |
Was that a... Twirl Harbor was the beginning of Pearl Harbor. | |
There were ballerinas who were there doing grand jetes. | |
Yes. | |
And geisha ladies. | |
Yeah. | |
Well, I'm not trivializing Pearl Harbor, but I'm just saying that, you know, you have something... I notice Japanese people love to trivialize Pearl Harbor. | |
Pearl Harbor, you know, the thing that happened. | |
So yeah, I've known Enrique for a long time. | |
The odds of him being a spy that was meant to fuck us over, I'd say a 1 in 20. | |
It's possible. | |
He did really want me to do a talk there. | |
And Jason Kessler, by the way, was determined to get me in Charlottesville. | |
Determined! | |
I said, I don't want to go there. | |
I don't support it. | |
He said, fuck you. | |
You have to come. | |
So that's part of the 1 in 20. | |
But I think it's much more likely that Enrique was an informant for the FBI, and he got a lesser sentence because of it. | |
I'm guessing, by the way. | |
I can't seem to call the guy. | |
And then he stopped that. | |
And his Proud Boys stuff was not in an informant capacity, but who knows? | |
Well, he maintained a good relationship with local law enforcement every time Proud Boys would go to do a rally or something. | |
Yeah, but we all did. | |
We all did. | |
We're pro-cop. | |
So we would say, we want to have a rally here. | |
Is that okay? | |
And that's why up until the highest... I think the left is so determined to destroy the club that they're just like, we found some dirt on him in 2012. | |
Let's make him an informant. | |
But an informant doesn't get exposed like that. | |
Yeah. | |
They're Teflon. | |
Yeah, wouldn't you think so? | |
No one, like, the swamp doesn't mock an informant. | |
Haha, we caught you. | |
Guy who works for us. | |
Guy who works for us, telling us all the secrets we want to know. | |
That's not really a good, you know, way to go forward with other informants in the future. | |
Yeah, that's not really a good business plan. | |
We'll shit on you in the papers. | |
The funny thing about history and perception versus reality is that doesn't really matter. | |
So this could be the death of the Proud Boys. | |
This could be, oh, the whole thing was a lie. | |
The guy who took it over was a Hispanic FBI informant. | |
Everything else, somehow everything they did was a lie. | |
Which, okay. | |
You know, my favorite thing about the Proud Boys was the men's club's meetings, which you killed in New York. | |
But what about in Florida and in Los Angeles and in Scotland? | |
Fuck the rallies. | |
The rallies are gay. | |
I've always been against rallies. | |
I understand you want to do one or two. | |
Or if Portland's burning down a city, you want to go beat them up for burning it down. | |
But generally, it should mimic the Knights of Columbus. | |
The business plan was the Knights of Columbus for young men. | |
All right. | |
It seems that we've run out of free time. | |
Aw, man. | |
It is now time to go behind the paywall. | |
You freeloaders have gotten a taste of what we do. | |
The thing about the Wednesday show is it's live at 9 p.m. | |
so I generally as a Scotsman have quite a buzz at 9 p.m. | |
I don't know if you have a Scottish dad but if you call him at 9 p.m. | |
you're getting jargon. | |
In fact, I'll prove it. | |
Let's call dad, and you'll see why I'm drunk now. | |
Because my father was drunk, because his father was drunk. | |
You freeloaders are getting some lucky content here. | |
This should be paywall. | |
This should be paywall. | |
You bastards. | |
I'm assuming he picks up. | |
Hi honey. | |
Hi mom, you're on the show! | |
Is dad there? | |
Oh, you mean the old geyser? | |
Yes. | |
I think he went to bed about half an hour ago, but I'll see if I can wake him. | |
What, at 9 o'clock he went to bed? | |
No, I'm here. | |
No, I'm here. | |
Don't lie. | |
Jesus Christ. | |
Do you remember the time, Dad, you picked me up by the neck and threw me in front of 38 Bridalwood Avenue so hard that we smashed the deadbolt and landed on each other? | |
No, I can't say I remember that, darling. | |
We were going on a trip, you took work off early, and I dilly-dallied. | |
Yes, that's when you were at, eh, eh, the high school there. | |
The Earl of March. | |
You bumped a boat, you tried to get a holiday, and you, Jesus Christ, it took you forever to get home. | |
You're right! | |
I remember that! | |
He pinned you up against the brick wall Yeah. | |
- What the heck? | |
- I still have-- - Your necks were dangling. | |
- I still have nightmares about that. | |
- Yeah? | |
- Well, I-- - That's parental abuse. | |
- You know how I knew that I was in trouble? | |
I was on the bus because you were smart enough to get me to a good high school out of our district but it meant I had to take the public buses to get to it because it was like an hour away. | |
And on the way back I heard these people going, oh my god, did you see, did you hear about that Scottish woman who was at the office? | |
And they go, yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
She was screaming. | |
She said someone's, someone's head is on a plate or something like that. | |
And, uh, she was yelling at the staff there and they were trying to calm her down. | |
That must've been you, mom. | |
And then I heard that dad said, dad was sitting in the passenger seat of the car and he said, if he fucking lies, I'm going to murder him. | |
And when I got up to the car I said, you guys are not going to believe what happened. | |
So the bus was late and then you jumped out of the car and tried to kill your own son. | |
Well, you know, I was sorry I couldn't do it. | |
We all are. | |
You did the world a disfavor. | |
What did you do today? | |
What'd you make? | |
What'd you make for breakfast? | |
I made myself breakfast. | |
- What'd you make? | |
- Then I... | |
- What'd you make for breakfast? | |
- I had an egg. | |
No, no, that's nonsense. | |
No, I didn't do that. | |
- That's nonsense. | |
- Went across to the coffee shop across the road, and I brought an enormous sandwich. | |
What's an enormous sandwich? | |
What does that even mean? | |
It's got layers and layers of ham and cheese and all kinds of meat. | |
I said, "No to me." So I had half of that, and I put the other half in the fridge, and then Lorraine and I went to drink across the road, and came back. - Wait, what time was this? | |
What time was the drink? | |
It sounds like 11 a.m. | |
No, no, no, no. | |
We went across about 5 o'clock. | |
5 p.m.? | |
Yes. | |
Oh, that's late. | |
So we had a drink over there. | |
Then they came back and Lorraine said, well, do you mind if I have half of that sandwich? | |
Now, half of that sandwich is now a quarter of that sandwich. | |
Well, that's how big it is. | |
It's ridiculous. | |
So I had the other co-opper and that was enough. - Do you have the book rights to this story? | |
Do you own the book rights to this story? | |
I'm already plotting the cast. | |
I see Tom Cruise as the main sandwich maker. | |
Oh, it gets better. | |
So there was a large pickle in the sandwich. | |
So there was a large pickle in the sandwich. | |
I cannot believe. | |
I know, Dad, when you were young, you had some trepidation about having kids. | |
and I cannot believe you just made me pro-choice. | |
I wish I was an abortion and I didn't have to listen to that fucking story. | |
Listen, I sent you a picture of them at Outriggers. | |
Yeah, I sent you a picture of this. | |
It's called Hanging Up. |
