You should feel lucky guys, because right now, right here, I'm going to debut a brand new track from the Reagan and Watkins album. This is one of my personal favorites, you're listening too. I just went soft from Reagan and Watkins. This next song is about how making love is...
Not always perfect. And I just went soft, I apologize, something else was on my mind. I just went soft, it's not USB. Let's try a second time.
We live back down, girls, pedals hit the floor, hit the floor. You about to live, and I know you are more. Girl, give on my motion and you're okay. I just went soft.
Damn what the hell actually it might be you. I just went soft. This never happens, I swear. Just giving us a second or two.
Go to the bathroom, stay in my reflection, stay in my reflection. I said damn well I was good. You get dressed. Begin to go.
Then you glance down one more time and my penis is the same. Hello, I just got hot. Oh hell yeah girl, let's freakin' do this thing. I just got hot.
I've got an opinion like behind you. Like I'm bubblo-jan, way I just got hot. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Came in, I just went soft.
Yeah, hope you dug that. Later today, check my social media and watch the music video for that song starring our buddy, Brian Redban and his girlfriend, Janice. Very exciting guys. Today, Ben Gleeb is my guest.
You may know him from Chelsea Laley, idiot test on Netflix, or if you haven't heard, he's running for President of the United States. I never like to get very political on the show, but this is an interesting case. I want to kind of give a heads up about this episode. It doesn't matter to me what political party you're affiliated with, but just be aware that there is some political jokes that will be made later in this episode, and this is a comedy podcast.
So just be prepared for that. And that being said, there's a ton of great riffing, good conversation, and a good time was had by all. So I hope that translates at the end of the day. My buddy, Gage, the beast, Tearina, you know, he helps me produce the show, and he edits the audio and video for this thing.
He's doing some pretty fantastic things on YouTube. So go follow him at Gage Tearina, G-A-G-E-I-J-E-R-I-N-A. Oh, man, he makes me spell it every single time. And yeah, he has a gun to my head right now.
It's pretty intense. So, yep, is that good? Perfect. I want to thank the sponsors of this show, Speedweed, Bronxmore Pizza, Mention Music, and Caveman Coffee.

Oh, yeah. If it's a style thing, but like old men that have it in their pocket in their wallet, they're like, and they offer to you. Yeah. You want to know some of this.
You would like to do this for your nose? I'm not looking to catch the color up or the plague, you. It's a bubonic plague on this, whatever. Yeah, but it's around.

What's the what's the sickest you've ever been? You know, I've had bad food poisoning or anything like that. Yes. Yes.
A few times. Came back from Mexico and had monosuit was revenge, something horrible, fresh from your college. I was puking every color in the rainbow. Not at once.
They would just change each time. Did you drink water? Or was it some kind of alcohol? It was some water or ice must have slipped into my situation.
Yeah. My dad had to come and be my bedside for three days. It was going down to Mexico. I was back in San Diego and I was back in school after that and I was like, it was a bad scene.
And then also two different times. I ate chicken that was uncooked completely and loved chicken so much and such a fat boy who loved to eat food. I didn't realize I was eating completely uncooked raw chicken until like four or five bites in. I was like, this is a little gummy.
It's a little chewy here. It tastes like a gummy bear. A little chewy bravo. Yeah.
And it's a weird wanker factory candy that just came out. This is a chicken flavor. Mm hmm. Mm hmm.
What we're going to do is have a wonderful, gobstpper, uncooked chicken, eco-ry salmonella flavor. Delicious candy. You really look like Gene Wilder when you do that. Thank you.
Thank you. Come with me, and you'll see a world of full of salmonella. Oh, oh, my stomach feels as don't go. Unclean forks, unclean spoons.
This is where previously used. Knives. Yes, come with me. Come with me.
It'll be wonderful. Yes. Oh, Ejo. Did you watch that remake?
Johnny Depp? I did. Yeah. What a disappointment.
Yeah. Johnny Depp. He's a good actor, but people say he's the greatest. And his characters are over the top.
But he'd be the greatest actor at children's birthday parties. Yeah. Those characters are a little much. They're sometimes a little.
He hasn't played a great subtle character in a while. Is there any difference between his willy Wonka and his Mad Hatter? I don't think he's going to differ. Probably not.
You know what I'm saying? Did you see the movie Finding Neverland? The Michael Jackson documentary? Is it Fine?
No, that was Leaving Neverland. Oh, well. Bad titles for the two of them. Leaving Neverland at the sequel.
Wow, I did not see either of them. So Johnny Depp plays the author of Peter Pan. And he's really good at that. He just plays a dad.
And it's the most subdued role that I've seen him play in years. He doesn't ever go, oh. No, I know this one. I know this one.
Yeah, from Adam Raisin, Prellion of Johnny Depp. He sounds very much like Robin Williams. Depp does. Oh.
You ever know what I'm saying? Oh. Johnny Depp is very much like him. Johnny Depp is just the most subtle Robin Williams.
And then Robin Williams is all. Oh. Oh, that's a little more subtle just Johnny Depp is a little. I don't know.
I don't like talking on camera. So many cameras. What a really year. It's going to be here.
I don't like it in the rock. He does. Johnny Depp does a lot of, you know, a lot of the fish is where he's holding his face. I just woke up.
I just woke up. One side of my face, I just woke up. Just woke up. I just woke up.
I'm sorry. I don't have a name to say. But I've been sailing for the Seven Seas for years. I'm sailing the way through the rock.
I am sailing the way through the rock. I'm sailing the way through the rock. You know what? I'm sailing the way through the rock.
I believe he is the most beautiful creature So revive Yeah, oh wow, oh we actually have a color calling in the show grandpa Wow didn't you just infiltrate the system? Hello?

Whoa, so Hello, President Clinton is this Wow Wow, Bill Clinton, I'm blown away that you're calling in to the show right now. This is Yeah, well, I've always wanted to ask you, you know, when did you start playing sax?

Yeah, I mean, I'd love to have a sax off with you sometime I mean, I think that that would be I think that that would be Yeah, you are right You know, this is really weird, but you have a brother who's actually calling the show right now that I didn't I don't think most people know It's it's yeah, I know you guys he's a he's a Republican So he's you guys just don't see I'd I exactly but he's calling in it's actually Phil Clinton is actually PC. Hello Phil I'm the reaction wasn't that hard. She's not very likable bill. I just I just let's like where she you know mentioned Exactly you see your wife if you still even call her that yeah, she's seeing any other people right now I'm kind of lonely.
Okay, what that is you cross the line right now We did if I weren't separated by phone line from you're coming out of whip you sell really what would you do to me? You silly I just said silly with a web is it I've got your eyes now stop amount for your wife Hiller Intellired she was losing if you run again, oh no look who just is calling me on my phone on the conference or in our sister Jill clean just called oh no jail called We can Jills calling to do you want to do that's that's three Clinton's that are on the I guess we should take the Okay, Jill hello Okay Okay, this is really weird there's somebody it just says Casey Kill Clinton is calling it. Yeah, okay. I just dropped kill Clinton.
We can't have people make no threats It's not cool against family. No, no, no, that is not cool. Okay, so, you know We really didn't get much accomplished other than your sister and our sister when your sister law Hillary I Feel like you I should hang out a little bit more because I'm still Arkansas and I feel a little neglected that nobody comes a visit No one likes you My gosh, it was be on the phone calling right now. We're gonna get a fourth person.
We get a fourth person. Oh Let's let's go ahead and answer it Is this is this Barack Obama you are actually Mr. President I think so much for calling in we're getting a lot of different political viewpoints calling in the show But do you have anything to say about the Hillary loss or do you have anything to say to former president of the United States Bill Clinton? On the Democratic side, okay, how did you guys mess up do you think?
Oh wow? Can you feel can you put down for a second? I don't get to talk to the president of the United States very often I do so you guys can take it again. Oh, wow, Ben you get a you get a word close.
I've been talking Really? Okay, wow, this is pretty fascinating. Well, thank you Barack Obama for calling in the show This is pretty huge huge deal. Do you have any words of wisdom or anything to leave us with before you go?
Fantastic. Thank you for calling it What do you think we don't the rest of the thing so it's been a little much? It's been a little little much Okay, well, we got a lot pretty easily Give up quick. They give up quick.
You know, it's gonna like not going to Wisconsin for Hillary They just don't put in the extra effort. They don't put it in not gonna do it Dude, so this is crazy not crazy. Well, it could be considered crazy. You know, you know, you know, you are You're you're trying to run for the president of the United States.
You're like running you're doing a I'm trying I am doing you're like campaigning right now. Yeah, yeah to make that happen. That is a fact I'm an official candidate. No joke.
I know everybody thinks this is all about jokes and games Well, that's that's what I kind of want to ask you like like what I'm at this podcast No one thinks my campaign about jokes and games they did in the first week, but and then you got serious and I mean You even got the presidential pin on right now. Yes, I do That's the class. He's got a classic pin on yeah, people know now. I'm for real No, I am for real for real like I am always a comedian and I will always be a comedian So I love to be a comedian Yeah, and also now a politician I'm running for president only because I think we need to stop Trump And I believe that comedians needed to do it because he's the best trash talker in political history and We need to take him down and I think a comic is uniquely suited because cautious politicians cannot stop him They really haven't been able to stop him at all clearly in these first two years They couldn't stop in this campaign and if you if he if they lose to him again doesn't matter what policies They believe in I have the same progressive policies as all the other Democratic candidates and some very unique ones of my own But we have to beat him and imagine me and Donald Trump in a debate I crush him I crush him and we would save our republic so no joke like all kidding aside Please keep enjoying the you know this podcast but also on your phone Maybe go to glee20.com and check it out.
You can see my policy positions while we make you laugh Yeah, so that won't make that clear have the have you know if you're on your laptop maybe listening you have the YouTube window open on one open a new tab Go to be 20. Yes, be learning about what uh, you know his points already stands for please. Yeah, I love that That's a GLE idea When did it start feeling real you know what I mean because you told me a while ago You're like I might be doing this thing that could make me my schedule in sync And I was kind of like okay like and then like after this started happening. I was like, oh Like you're gonna keep on the deal because I don't you know You don't want to let the cat out of the bag before it started like momentum like moving forward and stuff like that When is it started to sink in a little bit like oh this I could actually be a viable chance like to because you're getting like some Press stuff about around you and a lot of hype and stuff like that So it became real I guess it already felt very real just in the prep because preparing to run is very intense You have to file the federal election commission you have to open your campaign committee you have to open a bank account You have to start hiring people all that is big commitments like you're going You're running but it became in my mind viable was I just in my mind thought that I had you know I know politics very well I've been very involved politics a very long time and then on top of that I really just believe that I really believe that we need a comedian's brain to be able to diffuse Trump Bill Maher said himself into what starts my announcement video Which you can see on the website Bill Maher said we need someone who can shred Trump like a stand-up does a heckler because Trump is a heckler And to defeat him we need a comedian and that was my calculus But it started feeling like I could be viable was when we announced and right off the bat Not only were thousands of donations pouring in and volunteers offering to work on the campaign all of these tweets and messages and emails saying You're only hope you're the voice that's resonating the most for me in this election cycle We need a regular dude in office.
We need somebody who can relate to our struggles not just career politicians multi-millionaires That's exactly what my argument is and it feels very Sorry humbling it's exhilarating and it's a lot of responsibility I'm taking it super serious. I'd actually be able to do a light fun podcast because it's been the most intense two weeks of my life Yeah, has it started to feel overwhelming at all yet? Or you just schedule wise. You had to start hiring people to start working with the campaign stuff now for me Somebody who is pretty ignorant on the political side of things How does the money come in like you just start raising money to start basically campaigning in different markets and stuff like that?
Is that how it works? Yeah, I self-funded the beginning the initial seat of my house just from whatever little amount of savings I had so I'm not like Trump when he self-funded and he was putting a tiny fraction of his billions in there I was putting like the majority of my little tiny savings amount on this gamble Yeah to try to help the country like it's obviously very intense thing to run for to try But I just really feel like we're in such a scary place as a nation that I wanted to do my part and I feel like if I thought if there's any chance that I End up resonating with people that they believe that I will be the best chance to be Trump I just have to throw my hat in the ring and maybe that will be the case and even if I don't end up winning the nomination or winning the election Hopefully I'll be able to weaken Trump and poke holes in him and show the other Democrats Enough to help out the other How they can attack him find the vulnerabilities yeah go them into a fight and kind of be the Provoker that gets him off his game and that would be you know a great help I think toward democracy as well So whatever role I end up playing I'm happy to be doing it I know we'll talk about it later But if any if you're listening believe in this idea and really do aside from all the fun games want to stop Trump's because we don't have a country We can be fun in if he keeps attacking our freedoms attacking the freedom of the press our freedom of speech saying that people should be throwing jail for expressing their opinions And just donate a dollar at gleeb2020.com Because we need only two and a half weeks left to get to 65,000 individual donations And if we do we qualify for debates there's two spots left And I'll be up there on the debate to the end of June because we have two weeks before is the cutoff debating next to us But Warren and Bernie Sanders and my repeat and all this guys wow four weeks in the cutoffs in two weeks And where were you at with it currently we are I've always to go as we're it's amazing People donating every day more and more and more but we're a week and a half old and we're competing against campaigns with millions of dollars Yeah, and and Months ahead of us as a lead time as well show we need a viral moment We need to hit a critical mass where everybody's like telling their friends and telling them to tell their friends to each go donate a dollar And then I believe we can do it because things can go viral quick Wow But do you want to see if our democracy is real or not is our democracy actually still real or is it a lie that they say it's a government By the people but it's really the rich people in charge and they pretend like we have a voice in it You can find out for a buck It's why we're calling it the democracy challenge for a dollar you can see if I'll end up on the debate stage or if they'll make up I mean that just sounds like even even if you don't believe in it. What's a great gamble totally? You know what I mean?
Yeah, it's a dollar I would love to see if it's true and give me a buck or whatever you can afford to spend some from campaigns carries You know, it's really strange. I'm talking and already maybe my plans working because that DT on the line was This is pretty awkward, but you were just talking about him I think Donald Trump current president of the United States is actually calling into the show right now. Hello, uh president Trump How are you? Okay big fan of Jeremiah Thank you so much I'm watching I mean Netflix is a pretty big platform a lot of people is a major platform.
Yeah. Yeah, no no no it's $10 a month I was on his password. I said I don't even want it. I don't watch stranger things I be the country here.
Okay. I think it's a literal diggles that you're saying you don't watch Netflix president Trump I don't want I don't need Netflix. I got Fox news That's it. That's the only thing you need Okay They just play that on loop is just Our adversary Well your treasonous Trump, okay, the gloves are coming off right here on Jeremiah wonders I Didn't know president Trump.
I didn't know I wasn't aware. Oh, you can see him up close If you ever were in the same room as him you'd see the time very tiny They're like a little action figurine hands I mean this guy is smooth. You just parlade action figure two man of action So I believe I think you know you know you have a big challenge on your hands I don't think so because I think you people have to realize when we talk so I just want three things every single time Oh, yeah, what's that what is that? Either lie you brag or you make stuff up.
That's what lying is you lie or you brag or you or there's a third thing you do I feel like you're even lying. They're the same person was just talking right now You always lie or brag or denigrade our country is a third you speak against our institutions Yes, what I love America is that like no, but it is alike because I feel like your loyalty is our to Russia so He's just a pal. He's a You can have a pal in another country. I thought that's what America was all about Mr.
Glee. Well, no, you can't have a pal in other countries when that country infiltrates our democracy and tries to affect Yeah, that's exactly the point is that because they helped you your loyalty is to your own election over to our nation And that's exactly what you sworn oath to not do I mean, you know apples meets bananas meets oranges meets grabs, you know no You've never heard of that apples meet bananas meets crabs. Yeah, you didn't grow up that saying maybe I think I learned in Russia. I don't know.
Yeah, no, I didn't never heard that saying sir But is the dementia kicking already are you in some type of psychosis that no, but what I would just say to you Mr. Glee you think you can take me down on a bat me brother. Oh, I'm crying for you I'm coming at you used to be in the world wrestling Federation and I'm about to keep you down for three seconds Oh, you're gonna pin the president of the United States. Yeah, you're gonna tap out, bro.
Oh, you're gonna tap out And you're gonna crap out. Yeah, I said it you're gonna Apple's parents and crap out Okay, brother great. I look forward to it in the meantime keep colluding with Russia to infiltrate our 2020 election You're gonna need it. Wow, this guy leans really far left.
Okay, I don't like him. Is this better? Okay, great. I'm calling and I can't even see you.
That's fine But I feel like you could still close the mic and it's only your left ear right now and then boom look at that Yeah, you do you don't work very hard Well, I'm trying to end completely between you and I but you know, I guess it's not gonna happen No, I don't want amicable. I want you out of office and in prison. I guess a Fox News show just started Wow, I was in times you just out bullied Trump and I would do so I would do in person just like I just did on the phone right now Wow, yeah, got intense I got a little bit intense, but you know you can't back down from a fight and this time our history So you mentioned something before we started recording the podcast that I found pretty interesting is you are in a little bit of a gray area Where you'll find out soon whether or not during the campaign you can continue to actually do stand up or not? Because the way it works like explain to me like because you'd be taking money as like you meant if you were talking about the campaign It's like this weird like area where it's like okay Well, I'm getting paid to do stand up But like if I mentioned politics on stage is that considered lobbying right campaign?
We're talking to campaign lawyers tomorrow and hopefully we'll be all cleared out and I'll do whatever I have to do and follow Whatever regulation of course I have to follow but my hope and argument I will make is that I should at least be able to speak politics My political things have always done that in my stand up act a little bit along with my you know, silly or material Yeah, you understand yeah But we'll see where that line is oh hell yeah, we will oh Oh, baby. Oh, yeah, baby glee Come I'm been leaving I approve this mess. Yo that message was sexy as hell How come they never use this voice is like huh? I'm been gleaming I approve this message.
You know saying is your country letting you down You feel like income and wealth gap is getting bigger and bigger while all the money goes to the very tip top Then all state is there for you all state stands is with Ben bleeps campaign for president. Let's take our democracy Yo, man, you like fat asses of money then glee 2020 hell. Yeah, no, you into that. Yo, do you like skinny asses and more money?
Okay, leave 20 20 Come on This campaign straight up crazy dog man. We're trying to reach all kinds of demographics not just people that are into boring politics But actual regular people around the country that's no argument for what I'm running for office is we need somebody in the White House Who's a regular dude Jeremiah? We need somebody in the White House who is not a career politician and a wealthy multi-millionaire But a regular dude who travels the country with his hand up and knows the struggles of real people Hey, man, this dude is straight up cry over these points. I'm sorry You yelling Jeremiah and my ear was scary as all get out Jeremiah If somebody you'll bad at me like in the middle of the street like on a dark night with like one lamp swinging into the disc They're a mark.
Oh, no, man. I gotta get out of here. No, you don't you stop walking. You always had a demon that's following me What's going on man?
It's there a demon from your dreams. Demon from my dream. I'm out of here I want to talk to you in real life and stay in my dream land, but it's not even a nightmare, bro I'm like a nice demon from your dream. Oh, you're so afraid of me Oh, because probably you're not very approachable because you started young Jerobo Total voice dude and you're being honestly very anti baritone right now.
Okay. Well, can you say something to me from my voice? I'm not that's just how you're okay Okay I'm just saying could you say something nice to me perhaps and then maybe we can get somewhere and then I can start warming up to you A little bit is that possible sure? Let me try.
Okay, Jeremiah. You're a pretty pretty boy But you so much better. I think we're getting sick. We do like one more compliment and then I think I'll feel good about your Baritone voice.

Shashashay Shashay, opening bell This is a big big this is a great question at news underscore punt a comedian is now the president of Ukraine Correct and a clown is the president of America also great does been think that elevating gestures to kings is wise because who then gestures the gesture Everybody on Twitter will be gesturing the gesture because people are pretty funny on Twitter and not afraid to slam people So it's not gonna be a shortage of people hitting me if I become president But yeah, we have a joke in the White House and he's not a comedian and comedians I love how a lot of people's first question when they ask me are you serious about what they're running always like this is a joke You're a comedian like okay. You can just listen to me talk for a minute. Maybe not necessarily today But most day even today on this very fun hearted podcast.
I bring my passion comes through I think absolutely Thank you, and so it's clear that I'm serious But people don't realize that companies many things is not just being silly It's also speaking truth to power and people to get their news from John Stewart and Samantha Bee and John Oliver Because they trusted them more than the news anchors So why would you not trust comedians more to be your leader as well when all the lies come from Washington? Why do you want to keep hiring liars to be your leaders? It's very strong point. Yeah, thank you very much Yeah, thank you so much for supporting me.
I think that point. It was great. Thank you at tons more cowbell Am I an idiot for thinking the show is called idiot est yes? You are you aren't it?
I mean a little bit people get it wrong all the time people think it's idiotist people think it's idiot test people think it's You're on that one game that the idiot test. That's what you're I love that Ben glaab He's a great guy. Yeah, most shows put it on the book that have me on the front of it Idiotist they make it two words idiot test Idiotist and people to really have a real problem with saying and I say the name of the show three four times per episode So how bad is your you're definitely not answering the brain puzzle for just him a big fan of Ben glob in I Wait, we'll support him. You know what I heard he's running for president of the United States And he I'm gonna send a dollar and leave on an accident leave over Trump They don't know how to spell.
I mean please try to I'm just a big fan of Ben glob. Okay, it's glee All right, yeah, you say tomatoes. I say glob. Okay, I don't never said to my never said to my Don't you like I've said to my I'm just I'm just yeah, okay Go to gleeb 2020 calm you will not see the word tomatoes anywhere or tomatoes or tomatoes tomato s Well, I don't know how to respond to that because you know I was raised in a different region than you probably I wish you would respond.
Okay. I'll talk to my gals in the book I've been see what we can make shake you see what they're gonna make shake. Yeah, we'll see what you make shake That's the cute phrase. Yeah, you know, I love that.

Yes Well, thank you. I'm actually a huge fan of yours Chris. If I make all you Chris and not your full name Okay, I'll call you Christopher Walken every time I address From way the poo I mean what would that sound like you as Christopher Robbins and when you the poo Christopher thank you so much for calling in did you did you have anything to address with um With Ben or with Jeremiah or would you just want to stop I had to show for a little bit? You're endorsing then this a big deal guys.
There's a big deal Okay, well, it sounds like you and Gleeb are very much on the same side of things. So it makes sense why you're endorsing them What are one of Ben Gleeb's slogans for his his campaign? All right, okay, that's a good mama Okay, I know it's clever. I like it.
Okay, well, thanks for calling in I'm by the you endorse Ben Ben You gotta be pretty stoked about that. Honestly, it's a real honor because I'm a big fan of Chris We're walking for a long time. I don't want to put the watch up his ass and other stuff. He's done You know, all right.
Well, it's very cool. They called in very cool another endorsement at comedian Tony YC or comedian comedian to in YC With so many people running for president on the democratic ticket What are a few things that make you stand out as a presidential candidate? Well, if this podcast hasn't made it clear then I don't know what will perfect So there you go at Patrick Michael Comby. What would have been your dream sitcom to work on in the 90s?
I love that question has a very good fantastic wish so many running through my head so many good ones I think different strokes popped in my head. I think probably full house would have been really fun. Yeah, family matters Would have like to play or go home improvement. Mm-hmm.
You weren't much of a home-proofing guy. I might hung on TV set there With the girl with the belt did you know What would you what would you be probably one of those also? Boy meets world I got a scene. I didn't watch it.
I didn't watch it Me some of that okay, but that was that was towards the end of T.G.F. era, you know step by step was fun step by step The theme song or you're just making that up. No, that's it the people The funniest line will make it better the second time around right right status lyric in history and sound of sickle will make it better Second time around a lot of these theme songs down from 90 shows are like very depressing Like it's a rare condition To read any good news on the news, babe, oh, babe Love and condition and red designs some people say is even harder to find There must be some Is all I see Oh No Oh An edited PDF if you had to pick another comic to be your running mate who would you choose? It's a hard question to answer it is because also another thing that I was just curious about is just like let's say you start running And they is there any videos or anything out there you being a comedian that you are potentially that you'd have to scrub before I mean you don't have to say it on here because obviously then whatever the point then what's the point?
But is there anything you're like I should maybe take down some stuff look I maybe I maybe Didn't already do that but be but I'm fine because I'm a comedian I'm like you start to embarrass me. Yeah, I've done every embarrassing thing publicly and talked about it on my podcast So like there's not a lot it's about this you're gonna be like you did this. I'll be like I'm so sorry I'll be like I did it. Yeah, I'm a comedian.
I'm aware of it I'm a goofball and also very serious. Yeah, I got both sides So that's my gym and I right there you have a comic that you could maybe would Jeff Ross be good Because he'd be like a good you'd be a good guy to like to you know give me cover and like handle media situations And he's one of those guys who's very good at he never really Like he's never very political about where his standpoint is on like he because he makes fun of both sides very well Yeah, so he'd be good a good you nighter for the country. I think it'd be a good choice I think Greg Brooks very smart guy interesting choice there as well interesting And Brian market show be good market show be good very passionate Favorite flightless bird oil painter by Tyler. That's his name oil painter by Tyler's his handle oil paint by Tyler That's his own Instagram.
Yeah at oil paint by Tyler. Huh beautiful. I'll be has oil paintings on his Instagram. They're not dry yet Favorite flightless bird the ostrich they scared me a lot younger.

You know you got me bird in general We'll freak out about this is fantastic question at c samurai 924 on Instagram when you become president of the United States What changes will you make to address people with mental illness? Oh a serious question. Yeah, serious question Well, I like that we need to have more compassion for people's mental illness. We don't understand it You know, I didn't understand it myself until I have been in a place where I dated people that have had I've suffered from mental illness and it's a very real thing and you don't realize how you wish to get to tell them That's not out of it and they can't it's a it's a chemical imbalance in their brain So I would just encourage people to have more compassion I would try to have fireside chats with people with mental illness and have them explain their plight more so we can you always need the Country to understand something to be able to get behind it more and these things are stigmatizing people don't talk about them So I would just start talking about it more publicly in the public square and make people realize that many more people have it than you realize and that it's a normal thing to have and we shouldn't ostracize these people we should welcome them and try to Make sure that they get the service that they need and that's also comes through health care reform of course as well And making sure that people have access to mental health care as well.
It's just a health care expanding that I agree 100% Thanks, man. Yeah, man Let's do that into a funny voice for that one. No, that was that I told you like before we started podcast It's like there's a really good mix of like some serious questions. Yeah, I don't think you did something.

I what I got sober. Okay. I spent the last four months in as meetings hearing people talk about the joys of being of service and how helping others is the best way to be yourself Anyways, I was in a meeting a week ago and a homeless man came in and immediately interrupted and proclaimed I need some socks initially this bothered me because he was invading a space I found to be very helpful and consider sacred two or three days later I was driving to the same meeting I always go to after shopping for clothes and I saw the same homeless man begging I pulled off to the right lane gave him a couple of dollars and then remembered what he said about needing socks I just purchased a pack of six earlier and reached over and gave him a couple of past He was very grateful and I am glad I was able to be of service Thanks for the podcast and I hope to see you in Cincinnati sometime soon. I might have been off with that voice there That's a Cincinnati voice, right?
You read the end of that part. That's a pretty good Netherlands voice. Yeah, really good Netherlands voice. Thank you like a very Dutch vibe going on there.
It was nice when we gave him a couple pairs of socks and that's Something about them is weird. It's almost like you knew he was gonna seem against Yeah, maybe he was like feeling feeling it But that's that's a great example of kind of challenge Contributed something does a little something that will help somebody a long way Maybe you could give him three pairs I mean, you know that could be the next challenge up the pairs up the pairs one pair one pair one pair more One pair more is the way you do things one pair more one pair more I don't know how many pairs you want to eat one else I want more one I Enjoy eating I love past I love what I have one I Well, you know what Clarence got his pants Parents got his way What's on you have some of the top your head recently you would qualify as a kind of challenge at the time? Sure, I I guess not the super recently I just but it's about a recent thing coming up I just I joined the advisory board for this charity called the Harold Robinson Foundation that helps send kids from underserved communities in LA from Watts and comes into camp for the first time their lives and it changes their perspective on life and it helps them You know horizons and give them confidence they didn't have so I've gone up a couple times and taught improv to them and hung out with them and Dance with them and just had a good time and I'm hosting for the sixth year in a row in June second The pedal on the pier for the Harold Robinson Foundation at the San Monica Pier and we raised over a million dollars If we hopefully hit it again this year for these kids to send to camp at camp of moon too So you can go to pedal on the pier dot com and you can donate there and you can Come to the event for a hundred bucks and just drink and eat food and hang out and there's entertainment on stage and people biking on Spin Bikes a hundred miles in place while they do it or you can form a team and do that yourself. So that's that that that's great Thanks, man.
Definitely that over qualifies you for the kind of challenge. Thanks, man. It's no qualification. What I kept on my socks myself That's okay Right now I want to take the time to tell people right now go to glee 20 Oh and donate a dollar.
I'm gonna use a little bit a little I think you know what thank you even so let's be real Some of the people who are listening to this episode they could have turned off by now if they feel like it's too far left or whatever If you know our Trump supporter or in there or on the Republican side for the record quickly I don't believe Trump is an issue of left versus right I feel like a Republican's an emicretches not want like a liar and obviously Little Russians over us, but fair enough. Okay, so trying to straddle the line right here that if you know It's a buck. Why not why not it's one of those things where if you donate a buck tell somebody else glee 20 Thank you. Yeah, I'm trying to see if I do Honestly, it's just it's the best way to gamble with a dollar because what I would like to see you debating with those with Warren It's just historical to just be like oh, this is this is happening.

Yeah, let's get into this final segment I can't wait sax talk. Oh, yeah Deep What is that? I thought that was the time to break it. I know it's the perfect time to break it But I'm surprised you've had a pocket because you haven't broken out you know I'm one of the top because who players in the world Get out do I do this on stage with like famous musicians quick Robinson and I've rocked you proud of you times on on a kazoo in a piano I do it this one's yeah, it's a little sticky.
I'm a pocket sticky, but it happens it happens So Ben is gonna share a story of a sexual encounter and I'm gonna play some sweet sweet sacks But before you do it you want to do a quick little shift to this before you go to that? Yeah, I'm gonna play something on the kazoo and you share a very short sexual encounter Okay, great. We're doing kazoo talk for the first time when Jeremiah wonders Gotta rack my brain Sexual that I'm comfortable sharing on this Podcast I'll tell you this it's kind of an anti-sexual story while I was on the road with kiltony for a week I really tested my strength and my will because I was not alone the entire time and I did not have sex for an entire week. I didn't I didn't masturbate I didn't do anything Yeah, and but I got it was awkward because and the like just a couple feet away from me Was Joe Jimenez in a bed and I almost had multiple wet dreams right right next to him and just lots of boners And you know just a couple feet away from your pals.
So that's kazoo talk with Jeremiah How do you get the kazoo to say I hated that's what you know was really I don't do the kazoo baby Very sticky right now So whenever you're ready, I was circling some sacks underneath you for your sex talk story great. I love that Great, I'm ready. What do you think I'm not ready? I'm ready the year was 1997 I was a sophomore in college.
There was a very beautiful woman who was also a sophomore maybe a freshman I Got the courage to ask her out on a date. She said to me. I'd love to cook you dinner in your apartment on campus I said oh hell yeah, let's do that Even I wasn't very confident girls really send more like oh sure that sounds really cool We went to the market and bought food and she came back to my place She cooked up that food real nice And as we were drinking wine, which we shouldn't have put a little bit underage. Oh we're drinking wine She turns to me at the end of the meal and says And let me just benefit by saying that I never possibly thought I could go this well because I was virgin and I had no experience with girls And so she looks at me and she says I have a very early morning tomorrow Ben So do you mind setting your alarm clock for me?
And I swear to you I looked at her right in the eyes and I said you want to borrow my alarm clock She looked confused like a puppy dog when he's like And she got up and I got up and I scored her to the door and I was like well anyway that was so much fun and she left And three days later I was walking through campus where you playing the events that night and it hit me What she meant by that I was like oh no She voted me in a very sour game after that on campus, but don't worry eventually I had sex Missin those sides missing I look back from like high school so I missed so many signs I don't know what happened. Do I regret it? I don't know is it ever bother you the instrument that you're so amazing at is one You can't talk while you do it is that hard for you for comedy? It's sometimes an obstacle, but it's also it's a road less taken so I like that I like that it's uh I like I actually like you Know what I actually like that I can't talk during it because I would probably try to lean on it with my standup If I do you know what I mean because since I'm like fluid like fluent in this like you flew it in it Because it just got wet in here.
