00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:22.000

with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley, joined today

3
00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:33.640
by co host Raj Sharma. Fellow co host Trade Turnholm.

4
00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:36.320
Maybe along shortly, just depends on if he can get

5
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:40.119
his tiny Chihuahua Daisy to eat something this morning. So

6
00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:44.920
prayers up to little Daisy on being able to feel

7
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:48.840
better and let her daddy come to work. In the meantime,

8
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:55.079
we have a very special yest inside the treehouse. And

9
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.560
I don't say this too often, it has been far

10
00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:02.159
too long since I've seen and spoken to you. Justin Foster,

11
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:05.640
Welcome inside the Treehouse after a long, long hiatus.

12
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:08.719
Good to see you guys, Thanks for having me so uh.

13
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:12.920
You're joining us from the great city that some would

14
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:15.359
put in air quotes of Los Angeles.

15
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:16.920
West Hollywood to woo.

16
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:17.879
The old wee hoo.

17
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:21.599
Yeah. All right, I'm gonna ask around the country.

18
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:24.159
I'm going to ask a really, really, really dumb question,

19
00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:26.640
and we don't need to belabor it. I know I

20
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:28.760
could have asked Roj this numerous times, but I didn't

21
00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:31.280
think of it until you said West Hollywood is the

22
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:32.120
Pink Pony Club?

23
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:32.400
Real?

24
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:33.760
Or is that just in the song.

25
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:35.840
Yeah, so the Pink Pony Club is the abbey.

26
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:39.799
M okay, so it's just is that hurt is that

27
00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:41.920
chapel Rohne's name for it or is that like a

28
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:44.439
common name for it or is it just her name

29
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:46.079
for it in the song? So they don't have to

30
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:48.159
pay any money to the actual club.

31
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:50.200
Well, that's a great question. I think I'm the wrong

32
00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:53.560
person ask but it is interesting that the abbey is

33
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:57.599
they have the chapel, the sub it's like the second

34
00:01:57.640 --> 00:01:58.879
part of the abbey. So I don't know if there's

35
00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:00.400
a connection there. I'm a big fan and at hers

36
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.840
by the way, and my sister in law was in

37
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:05.599
town and I took her by the abbey and I

38
00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:07.560
was like, there's a peak punk cup because there's the giant,

39
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:10.560
you know all that, but it's not peink. It's white anyways.

40
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:10.800
Whatever.

41
00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:12.240
Yeah, I don't know if it's I don't know if

42
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:13.879
we'd have to look at it because I am interested

43
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:15.639
to find out the connection. But it is the abbey.

44
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:19.719
Yeah, gotcha. I mentioned this and it really has been.

45
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:22.000
It has been way too long. We go way back.

46
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:25.080
The three of us do radio and comedy days, back

47
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:30.280
back in Dallas and radio stuff back at the old

48
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:34.680
rip station Live one five three, along with many people

49
00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:39.879
now not just the station, who have passed on. Things

50
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:43.639
have gone pretty well for everybody, all things considered. You're

51
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:45.960
in La now. There was It was such an interesting

52
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:49.400
time how the Dallas comedy scene had a group of

53
00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:54.080
guys that all basically migrated west to take the big

54
00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:57.039
chance in LA. And some are still there, some have

55
00:02:57.159 --> 00:02:59.360
moved back, some of you know, still kind of touring around.

56
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:02.080
How's it's good? I love it.

57
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:05.639
Yeah, it's funny. Roger's like, the is it Shirpa?

58
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:06.439
Really?

59
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:10.400
Raj went out first and like you know, surveyed the

60
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:12.319
land for us, and then we kind of followed him out.

61
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:16.199
But you know, it's so funny. It took me a

62
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:19.360
really long time to really like settle in here and

63
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:24.000
like I like it. And it's like been the last

64
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:26.439
like two years where I like love it and I've

65
00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:30.800
only been I've been out for thirteen If that's so.

66
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:33.199
It only took eleven years to actually enjoy.

67
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:34.680
Where you lived, and now I love it.

68
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:36.280
Yeah, So what changed?

69
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:39.919
I think me? I think me mostly. I don't think

70
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.759
the city. The city has certainly changed at all. I

71
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:44.960
think just living and acceptance. I was sort of living

72
00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:46.919
in two different places. You know, my family and my

73
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.879
friends and everything was in Texas, and I was stuck

74
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:52.560
between two worlds. And I kind of finally accepted, like, oh,

75
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:54.000
I live here now and I got my own place

76
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:55.639
and I've lived I'm living alone for the first time

77
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:59.120
since I was in my twenties. Wow, So it's yeah,

78
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:01.400
I kind of feel like a grown up.

79
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:03.919
No, I get that. It's a big step. I mean

80
00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:06.840
I moved a couple of years ago, and you know,

81
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:11.680
I mean I lived in you know, DFW area from

82
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:17.720
the age of nine until what forty two forty three.

83
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:20.680
I mean that's a long time in one space. And

84
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:22.959
so I completely relate to what you're saying. It's like

85
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:27.040
you moved somewhere and then you're you're not fully there yet.

86
00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:29.639
Yeah, it felt like I was on vacation, honestly, and

87
00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:33.879
I tell people this honestly, until about like two years ago,

88
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:36.439
I never really felt like because I was going home

89
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:38.199
every couple of or home. See I still do it.

90
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:40.120
I was going back to Dallas every couple of months,

91
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:43.480
and I was just like sometimes I wouldn't even tell people.

92
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:45.319
I would just fly in and just spend a week

93
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:48.639
or two with the family, you know, And so yeah,

94
00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:51.480
it just really feels like I was on vacation here,

95
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.399
just sort of visiting. I mean, I mean I lived

96
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:56.399
in DFW for thirty three years and I still had

97
00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:58.959
stuff in storage there and up until like five years ago.

98
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:01.079
I'll be back.

99
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:07.199
I still keep a small storage thing in Dallas. It's

100
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:10.360
mainly for treehouse stuff. When when when when I when

101
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:12.000
I go to Dallas to do and we'll do like

102
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:14.959
a live show somewhere in North Texas. That's mostly where

103
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:17.680
that stuff is kept. But yeah, I mean, other than that,

104
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:20.920
I still got that little thing there. But after a while,

105
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:23.639
you finally do sort of maybe some people don't ever,

106
00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:27.560
but you eventually accept, Okay, this where I am now

107
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:29.319
is actually home.

108
00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:30.240
Yeah.

109
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:31.600
I think it had a lot to do with like

110
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:34.639
living with roommates and like sleeping on people's couches, and

111
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.839
then like I think now like having this place that

112
00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:40.040
I love. It's a quiet, peaceful and there's a park across.

113
00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:42.519
It's just like there's a park here, and there's a

114
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:44.439
park there, and my gym's there, and I when the

115
00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:46.959
grocery store, and I just walk everywhere I'm like, Okay,

116
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:49.240
I just had to find the neighborhood.

117
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:50.360
Yeah.

118
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:52.920
Yeah, it's very difficult to do in North Texas can

119
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:54.199
usually it's drive everywhere.

120
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:55.079
Yeah.

121
00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:57.480
Yeah, it's you get a sense.

122
00:05:57.519 --> 00:05:59.680
I mean, you feel more grounded once you have like

123
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:02.480
your in space and your.

124
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:04.399
Own routine that you're going to do, you know, day

125
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:05.000
in and day out.

126
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:08.199
So yeah, which is an amazing thing to say that

127
00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:11.399
you feel grounded when you're a stand up comedian for.

128
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:11.720
For a living.

129
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:14.639
Well, yeah, I know. I think that I do so

130
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:18.199
much to be able to navigate that lifestyle to be

131
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:21.360
grounded that the comedy parts so easy, because I mean,

132
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:24.240
like my morning routine isn't sane like you guys would

133
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:26.319
think I'm a crazy person, but I do so much

134
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:29.279
in the morning to be able to not lose my mind.

135
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:32.079
Are you one of those ice bath plungers first thing

136
00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:32.959
in the morning.

137
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:33.519
Yeah, I do.

138
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:35.720
I do workout, I do ice plunge. I don't talk

139
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.199
for the first two hours. I meditate for you know,

140
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:42.399
almost an hour. My journal incense like the whole you know,

141
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:46.480
the whole thing. One of those guys, and it just

142
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:47.839
and it sets everything.

143
00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:50.360
There was a guy that went viral for that a

144
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:54.240
few weeks ago, for he posted his morning routines this

145
00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:56.839
is what I do every morning, millions of views and

146
00:06:57.120 --> 00:06:59.439
it started like three something in the morning, and he's

147
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:01.600
taken like a twenty thirty minute ice plunge.

148
00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:02.800
Oh that's crazy.

149
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:04.800
Yeah, he does like it with his face and then

150
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:07.040
his body. Then he journals, then he goes to work.

151
00:07:07.079 --> 00:07:10.040
I mean a meditation, all this stuff goes to work out,

152
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.240
and then I see people make fun of it, and

153
00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:15.720
rightfully so, because all these gurus are out there saying,

154
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:18.160
here's what your ideal morning should consist of. Well, by

155
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.759
the time you're done doing all that, it's time to

156
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:23.399
eat dinner. Yeah, you haven't even had time to go

157
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:23.839
to work.

158
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:26.120
Yeah, that's a little much. I think the non negotiables

159
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:28.040
for me is like meditating. I like to meditate for

160
00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:32.759
like an hour and then at journal, which is also

161
00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:34.920
turns into comedy joke writing, so which is that's for

162
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:37.959
my career also, Yeah, and that just kind of and

163
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:40.519
then you know, not not talking for the first hour

164
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:40.920
or two.

165
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:47.079
So I enjoy part of that. I like waking up

166
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:48.959
and kind of doing my own thing for the first

167
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:53.720
little bit and not having to have a discussion or

168
00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:56.800
whatever the case is. It's very simple. I wake up,

169
00:07:57.319 --> 00:07:59.959
I chug a bunch of water, I take the dog outs,

170
00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:03.680
make a cup of coffee, and and then I yell

171
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:07.040
at my watch for telling me to be mindful today

172
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:09.879
and take some breaths. I'm like, I just woke up, Siri,

173
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:10.600
leave me alone.

174
00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:14.160
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is funny when I tell people,

175
00:08:14.199 --> 00:08:15.920
I'm like, all right, so I like to like throughout

176
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.160
the day. I like to do three minute or three

177
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:20.480
thirty minute meditations. I like to go to the gym.

178
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:22.519
I like to do like a cold plunge. I like

179
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.920
to uh, you know, journal make a gratitude list. I

180
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:27.959
listened and they're like, oh, wow.

181
00:08:27.879 --> 00:08:28.120
You're so.

182
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:30.240
I'm like, no, I like I need all of that

183
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:34.360
or all like I'm a crazy person and I need

184
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:36.600
all of that to be okay. I'm not better than you.

185
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:38.559
I'm a lunatic.

186
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:41.360
This is what I do every morning just to reach

187
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:43.360
everyone else's baseline.

188
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:45.919
Yeah, yeah, exactly, so I can yell at drunk people

189
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:46.320

Yeah.

207
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:48.759
Dan, that's something that we talked about for a while

208
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:50.759
now and we decided to go ahead and just pull

209
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:53.159
the trigger on it. We've had excellent reviews, we've had

210
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:56.480
excellent referrals. People really love our work when they give

211
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:59.159
us a chance, and we just want to put our

212
00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:01.960
money where our mouth is. And you know, that's the

213
00:10:02.039 --> 00:10:04.399
best way I can always say that is just back

214
00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:06.879
it up. Back it up. When I was growing up

215
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:08.960
and I told somebody who's gonna kick their ass. You

216
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:11.000
got to back it up. Well, Now that I'm a

217
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.639

218
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:15.080

219
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:18.120
better experience, I'm backing it up. We're gonna take care

220
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:20.399
of your home because we want you to have that

221
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:23.000
peace of mind knowing that after we left, you have

222

the very best product left behind. Your home is safe,

223
00:10:25.559 --> 00:10:28.240
your family's taken care of, and that you don't have

224

00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:34.360
the Treehouse Show today, friend and comedian Justin Foster based

243
00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:38.759
out of la joining us remotely. Today is Thursday May first,

244
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:42.279
twenty twenty five. Yes, we are now all of the

245
00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:44.720
age where we all look around and go wow, it's

246
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:49.559
years really justly and by, and that's where we all

247
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:52.919
are in life now. But it's true. The older we get,

248
00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:56.120
the faster time goes, and the faster we get to death.

249
00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:59.159
Not to be moros, but it's kind of true. Maybe

250
00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:02.960
I need some of your bath plunges justin Maybe it's

251
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:05.879
the weather I'm feeling like, kind of dark and gloomy.

252
00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:10.039
I'll shake it off though, don't worry. Like I said,

253
00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:15.960
today is Thursday May first, twoenty twenty five. Oh man,

254
00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:21.480
did everyone notice that this Easter Easter Sunday fell on

255
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:27.879
four to twenty this year and one East Texas drug

256
00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:31.440
dealer took full advantage because instead of doing an Easter

257
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:37.480
egg hunt, he orchestrated an Easter drug hunt. His name

258
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:41.720
is Avante Nicholson, beautiful name. He's facing charges after police

259
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:45.200
say he filled at least five plastic Easter eggs with

260
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:49.279
weed all around Lufkin, Texas and hid them for customers

261
00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:51.919
to find His drug customers. Please found out about it

262
00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:54.639
because he posted photos of the eggs on Facebook as

263
00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:58.480
a social media promotion. So drug dealers are now doing promotions.

264
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:01.720
Just keep that in mind. He told people that whoever

265
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:05.960
shopped with him that day would get hints revealing where

266
00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:08.919
the eggs were hidden. Police found four of them. The

267
00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:10.679
fifth egg was found in a park by a man

268
00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:13.879
and his granddaughter the day after Easter. Most of them

269
00:13:14.240 --> 00:13:17.080
the eggs were hidden in parks, but police also found

270
00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:21.360
at least one egg behind a Motel six Classy. Altogether,

271
00:13:21.440 --> 00:13:23.759
the eggs had just over a quarter ounce of weed

272
00:13:23.799 --> 00:13:26.679
in them, and last we heard, police are conducting their

273
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:30.159
own scavenger hunt because Avante is still on the run,

274
00:13:30.600 --> 00:13:34.000
kind of like the Easter bunny. So is this Easter

275
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:37.080
drug hunt brilliant or stoopid?

276
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:38.000
Trey?

277
00:13:38.080 --> 00:13:43.919
Let's start with you. First of all, is Daisy okay.

278
00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:43.600
She's not doing very well.

279
00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:46.799
I'm sorry Okay, well, let's focus on an Easter drug hunt.

280
00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:50.440
Easter drug hunt in East Texas. Brilliant or stupid?

281
00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:51.960
Why not?

282
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:53.879
It's East Texas.

283
00:13:55.879 --> 00:13:57.039
I'm kind of there as well.

284
00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:59.879
I say both. It's brilliant to do what you know,

285
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:02.879
an easter promotion as a drug dealer. I mean, it's

286
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:03.960
brilliant business.

287
00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:07.559
I mean but if you've ever spent any time the

288
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:09.480
one that find it all, if you've.

289
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:12.279
Ever spent a lot of time in East Texas, Yeah,

290
00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:14.080
that's a very thin line.

291
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:20.080
So why not between brilliant and stupid? Yes, the thin

292
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:26.039
dumb line. H RAJ. Brilliant or stupid?

293
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:30.039
I don't I don't know why drug dealers think they

294
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:33.200
have to advertise. It's a it's kind of you. You

295
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:36.759
kind of have a captive audience. They're gonna come to

296
00:14:36.799 --> 00:14:37.559
you regardless.

297
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:40.840
But I do like you got to stand out.

298
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:41.960
Yeah, I like.

299
00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:44.879
I like the entrepreneurial aspect of it, where he's like,

300
00:14:44.960 --> 00:14:47.519
you know what, I'm gonna take this little mainstream and

301
00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:52.720
we're gonna do like a like a discount code. I'm

302
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.080
gonna drop hints and you can find free weed.

303
00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:58.840
I like this guy. I'm a fan.

304
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:00.679
Justin brilliant, inner stupid.

305
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.440
I think it's great. I'm so like it's such as

306
00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:05.399
like such a Texas thing. When the cops were like

307
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:07.679
scrambling trying to find him and everyone's like trying to

308
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:09.720
find the eggs. I'm in La. You would find that

309
00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:14.000
egg and people be like, ugh, it's not sativa.

310
00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:16.679
This is the Mexican dirt weed. I'm not I'm not

311
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:18.559
keeping this. I'd rather go to the store and buy

312
00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:20.519
something worthwhile more weed.

313
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:27.519
Cool, this isn't a vape? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you got

314
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:28.320
anything harder.

315
00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:33.919
That's a that's for different parts of Texas, or maybe

316
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:36.840
maybe that's a maybe that's a different promotion altogether from

317
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:39.360
a different guy. But I do love the idea. I

318
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:43.960
love the plan of you know, like you said, Raj,

319
00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:46.559
it's I mean, it's like, you shouldn't have to advertise

320
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:48.399
because you're a drug dealer, people will come to you.

321
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:50.679
But what if you're a startup You got to get

322
00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:53.559
your name out there. Maybe and uh, maybe this was

323
00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:57.279
his strategy to do so. On one hand, the drug

324
00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:00.600
dealing strategy for a social media promotion makes sense. The

325
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:03.159
downside is obviously the police see it and then they

326
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:05.799
go find four of your five eggs, but I give

327
00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:08.519
them credit because they still haven't found this guy.

328
00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:13.240
Right wow. And it's also like, in this economy, that's

329
00:16:13.279 --> 00:16:15.440
the cheapest eggs you're gonna find right now.

330
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:18.559
That's true, I mean, right at point now with the

331
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:22.240
economic hardship, that weed costs less than eggs.

332
00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:26.039
And I like the idea that you're going to try

333
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:28.799
to motivate potheads to get up and get out of

334
00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:30.240
the house to go find eggs.

335
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:36.320
That's how that's why the cops found four first.

336
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:41.679
You're absolutely right. They're all like, man, that's.

337
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:43.840
Too much stress. We'll go later.

338
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:46.720
Yeah, potheads don't have steps goals.

339
00:16:47.360 --> 00:17:10.799

with Trey Trenholm. Welcome in Trey and Raj Sharma and

348
00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:47.119
today's special guest, comedian and fellow podcaster Justin Foster. Yes,

349
00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:51.440
real quick, I'm not sure, mainly because my memory is really,

350
00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:55.400
really terrible. Uh, Trey, Justin, Justin Trey. I think you

351
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:57.079
guys may have met back in the Live one O

352
00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:00.079
five three days. But if not, Justin Trey, Trey, Justin.

353
00:18:01.279 --> 00:18:07.079
Good to see those days are pretty hazy.

354
00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:09.200
Or hazy for all of us. Hazy for many reasons,

355
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:13.759
but one of the main ones is alcohol. Raj and

356
00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:17.400
I are still on the booze train. Trey Justin. You

357
00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:21.519
guys are living the sober lifestyle now, to which I

358
00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:25.000
offer you a thumbs up each. Good on you. I

359
00:18:25.079 --> 00:18:27.000
tried it for the month of January, and I'm very

360
00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:30.720
proud of myself for having done that. And I'm not

361
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:34.359
ready to go full straight edge just yet, but again.

362
00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:36.000
I know I'm here.

363
00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:36.599
Don't do it.

364
00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:38.839
You are.

365
00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:42.319
You are the worst sober guy I have ever heard.

366
00:18:42.440 --> 00:18:44.920
Usually like you need to stop drinking, and those guys

367
00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:45.720
are all over You're.

368
00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:49.000
Just like I tell everybody, if you can, please.

369
00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:56.200
Do I'm actually not drinking right now. So it's been like, collectively,

370
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:58.480
it's been about if I do all of so I

371
00:18:58.519 --> 00:18:59.920
did most of December.

372
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:03.119
There's no drink, you're either pregnant or you're not.

373
00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:06.279
Oh, I see, I don't. I don't believe that theory.

374
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:08.519
That's what it is. That's what that is.

375
00:19:09.720 --> 00:19:12.559
But it's been Yeah, so it's it's been on and

376
00:19:12.599 --> 00:19:15.480
off three months. Like I'll have something here and there,

377
00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:18.440
but nothing like excessive, Like I'll do like if I'm

378
00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:20.240
watching like the Stars game, like I have a couple

379
00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:23.000
of beer. I'm not a beer guy. Yeah, so I'll

380
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:24.599
do that on purpose to where I just have like

381
00:19:24.680 --> 00:19:26.960
one or two and then that's that's my wrap for

382
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:27.880
the death.

383
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:29.720
If it works for you. Like I was telling my

384
00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:31.319
like my buddy called me the day He's like, I

385
00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:33.519
got a friend he's getting divorced and he's drinking all

386
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:39.319
the time. I'm like, yeah, don't take away his medicine.

387
00:19:39.599 --> 00:19:40.920
Yeah that makes sense.

388
00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:42.640
I'd be worried if he wasn't drinking.

389
00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:44.759
Does he have a problem, but he's drinking a lot?

390
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:45.839
Okay?

391
00:19:46.359 --> 00:19:47.880
Yeah.

392
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:50.960
The problem is it's like when you're drinking for all occasions,

393
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:52.960
Like if you're drinking just when you're sad, which is

394
00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:55.559
on occasion, okay, not ideal, but it may not be

395
00:19:55.599 --> 00:19:59.200
your problem. But if you're also drinking to celebrate something.

396
00:19:59.200 --> 00:20:02.880
If you're drinking to uh commemorate something. If you're drinking

397
00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:05.759
because you're sad angry, if you're if you're having a

398
00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:08.680
shot because you went T T H in the bathroom

399
00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:11.440
instead of your bed, you might have a problem, right,

400
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:12.880
and you want to talk to somebody.

401
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:17.079
If you're drinking and it's not causing problems in your life,

402
00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:18.359
you're okay.

403
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:21.480
Yeah, I think on the same page with that. It's like,

404
00:20:21.559 --> 00:20:24.279
unless you unless you have problems, I'm never gonna tell

405
00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:25.000
you to stop drinking.

406
00:20:25.079 --> 00:20:28.240
Yeah, I mean it's like, I think dry January is

407
00:20:28.279 --> 00:20:29.119
the dumbest thing ever.

408
00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:34.799
Yeah, why do that? Not drinking for the month of January.

409
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:39.359
I'm like, why If if it's that significant in your life,

410
00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:43.200
then you really probably do have a problem.

411
00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:44.559
Well, I know I have a problem.

412
00:20:47.839 --> 00:20:48.799
Now it just got sad.

413
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:54.119
Well, look I have I have. I have an addiction,

414
00:20:54.440 --> 00:20:57.279
but it doesn't negatively affect my life and all these

415
00:20:57.319 --> 00:20:59.200
other problems. I mean, you're like a little dust up

416
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:01.359
here and there because I forget stuff, But for the

417
00:21:01.359 --> 00:21:04.319
most part fine, And I'll be the first to admit

418
00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:06.200
that I have an addiction thing to it, but it's

419
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:09.119
not causing mess anyway, this sounds like justification, and I

420
00:21:09.119 --> 00:21:12.119
can see Justin and Trey going like, Okay, keep talking serious.

421
00:21:13.880 --> 00:21:15.400
I would tell you, Dan, if I thought you had

422
00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:17.079
a problem, I would tell you. And I don't think

423
00:21:17.119 --> 00:21:17.279
you do.

424
00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:19.400
That is true. That is true. Thank you, Trey. I

425
00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:21.880
appreciate that. And it's been so long since we've hung

426
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:23.799
out with Justin. Justin has no idea. He's like, for

427
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:29.240
all I know, you're on Heroin, which wouldn't be completely

428
00:21:29.240 --> 00:21:31.279
out of the ordinary for someone in the radio and

429
00:21:31.319 --> 00:21:32.200
podcasting field.

430
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:33.279
I still wouldn't judge you.

431
00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:35.200
Yeah, thank you. I appreciate it. So let's use that

432
00:21:35.200 --> 00:21:38.599
as a segue. So, Foster the podcast is the show.

433
00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:41.680
I almost called it new, but it's not. I guess

434
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:43.920
you were on hiatus for a little while, but now

435
00:21:43.920 --> 00:21:45.640
you've got the show back in full force.

436
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:49.119
Full force. Yeah. We started twenty thirteen. Roger has been

437
00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:51.480
on and it was me and a professional life coach

438
00:21:51.720 --> 00:21:54.640
and we did it from twenty thirteen to twenty nineteen

439
00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:59.319
or two thousand. Yeah, she had twins, they had some complications,

440
00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:02.720
then COVID it and then so we kept trying to start,

441
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:06.720
restart starting, and so we're officially back now and we've

442
00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:10.680
got ten episodes up streaming now and we're recording more

443
00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:14.200
next week. But it's basically a dating relationship comedy show

444
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:20.160
with the comedian who is really bad at dating and

445
00:22:20.680 --> 00:22:23.319
a married life coach. So we have our friends on

446
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:25.880
and talk all stuff dating and stuff.

447
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:28.440
Well, that's very cool. It's I like the dynamic. I

448
00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:31.519
like the I like that pairing. I'm assuming Foster the

449
00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:34.680
Podcast available on all major podcasting platforms.

450
00:22:34.799 --> 00:22:37.480
Yeah, YouTube, Spotify, iTunes, all of it.

451
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:40.279
Very cool, So search for Foster the Podcast. So you're

452
00:22:40.279 --> 00:22:43.519
in LA now, have been for many many years. Does

453
00:22:43.519 --> 00:22:45.240
that mean you've tried your hand? I mean, I know

454
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:47.119
you're a comedian, you're a working comedian. That is your

455
00:22:47.119 --> 00:22:50.599
full time job, just like Raj. But since you're in LA,

456
00:22:50.759 --> 00:22:53.960
does that mean you're trying to, you know, get in

457
00:22:54.279 --> 00:22:56.200
on the acting side of things or.

458
00:22:57.279 --> 00:22:59.400
That's funny you asked that. Somebody asked me that yesterday.

459
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:02.440
I wouldn't consider myself an actor because I think it'd

460
00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:04.720
be a disservice to people who actually have taken acting

461
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:07.559
stuff and taken it seriously. But people do put me

462
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:09.240
in stuff and I actually just filmed a movie I

463
00:23:09.279 --> 00:23:12.200
was on set for six weeks last year that should

464
00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:16.559
be coming out this year. Where it was really fun.

465
00:23:16.599 --> 00:23:19.200
I think comedians, you know, like I'm not trying to

466
00:23:19.240 --> 00:23:21.119
do Shakespeare, but I think if you throw a comedian

467
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:23.640
in a role, I think that we understand the beats

468
00:23:23.640 --> 00:23:25.880
of comedy and we could take direction really well. And

469
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:28.920
the director was like so happy with me and like

470
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:31.279
didn't barely have any notes that he actually called me

471
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:33.000
after we were filming. He was like, dude, I feel bad.

472
00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:35.400
He was like, after you do your scene, we would

473
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:36.880
just move on to the next one. And I didn't

474
00:23:36.880 --> 00:23:38.319
tell you that you were doing a good job. I

475
00:23:38.400 --> 00:23:39.519
just I just want to let you know that you

476
00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:41.119
killed it. I was like, hey, no notes is good,

477
00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:41.759
Like I'll take it.

478
00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:45.839
Yeah, that is awesome. Yeah, because I imagine that dealing especially

479
00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:50.119
dealing with fragile egos of actors. Yeah, you were probably

480
00:23:50.200 --> 00:23:52.039
a breadth of fresh air. But he was probably used

481
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:54.160
to having to coddle some of the actors and was like, oh,

482
00:23:54.240 --> 00:23:57.160
let me call this guy because yeah, he might think

483
00:23:57.200 --> 00:23:58.440
I hate him or something. Yeah.

484
00:23:58.440 --> 00:24:00.680
I just really learned my lines. I really prepared, and

485
00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:03.200
I went in and just knocked it out. It was

486
00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:06.119
so fun. And uh yeah, so yeah, if somebody wants

487
00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:07.839
to put me in something, I'll do it. I'm not

488
00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:11.039
actively like doing auditions or stuff.

489
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:13.720
So so can you tell us what the movie is?

490
00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:16.240
And yeah, actually very funny. It's called by Partisan. It's

491
00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:19.519
a it's a documentary about a guy who's running for

492
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:23.279
mayor of Seam Valley. And I played white guy Pete.

493
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:24.920
I'm the only white guy on the campaign trail on

494
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:25.880
a diversity higher.

495
00:24:28.720 --> 00:24:32.319
Yeah, yeah, this is fantastic.

496
00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:35.400
When didn't you almost didn't you almost lend uh Lee

497
00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:36.559
Harvey Oswald once?

498
00:24:36.839 --> 00:24:39.920
Yeah, yeah it was. I was. I had a few

499
00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:43.440
auditions for Biopica or the Hosswald I had hair back then.

500
00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:48.920
Yeah, at the comedian to played Lee har Yeah. Yeah,

501
00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:51.039
I will say this though, you're first of all, real quick,

502
00:24:51.039 --> 00:24:52.640
when does when does a bipartisan come out?

503
00:24:52.680 --> 00:24:52.960
I don't know.

504
00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:54.000
I don't know what they're going to do with it,

505
00:24:54.000 --> 00:24:55.559
and they're trying to sell it or put it in festival.

506
00:24:55.559 --> 00:24:58.119
Hopefully we'll keep our eyes and ears out of I

507
00:24:58.160 --> 00:25:00.240
will agree with you though, I'm a huge fan and

508
00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:06.359
of comedians quote unquote turned actors because to me, at

509
00:25:06.640 --> 00:25:11.000
the beginning, middle, and end, a comedian at its core

510
00:25:12.279 --> 00:25:15.680
is an actor. You're you are performing, and to a

511
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:18.200
certain degree, you might be performing yourself. You might be

512
00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:21.160
performing an embellishment of yourself or just straight up made

513
00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:26.359
up stuff. I'll like if you're playing a character on

514
00:25:26.440 --> 00:25:28.640
stage or you're just making stuff up, you know, for

515
00:25:28.680 --> 00:25:33.359
the material. So yeah, I'm all for it. And some

516
00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:36.599
of the best, some of my favorite actors started out

517
00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:37.319
as comedians.

518
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:37.920
Yeah.

519
00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:44.000
I think comedians understand the comedy dynamics really well, and

520
00:25:44.039 --> 00:25:45.440
a lot I have a lot of friends that are

521
00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:48.599
like serious actors, and if it's not if they don't

522
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:51.680
understand the comedy, if it's not written specifically, you know

523
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:53.440
what I mean. Like I think like Raj and I Like,

524
00:25:53.559 --> 00:25:55.000
you see a script, you go, oh, this is the

525
00:25:55.039 --> 00:25:57.200
funny part, this is the beat. And I think a

526
00:25:57.240 --> 00:25:59.880
lot of actors sometimes struggle with that a little bit.

527
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:01.640
I think comedians are really good to be like, oh

528
00:26:01.720 --> 00:26:03.119
that's what this, I got it.

529
00:26:05.559 --> 00:26:07.480
I kind of put that up there with some of

530
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:10.839
the actors don't have that same life experience than that

531
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:14.200
that comedians do, or maybe they're just not as good

532
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:17.240
at tapping into some of those emotions because most comedians

533
00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:19.359
have had to go through a lot of crap, and

534
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:21.640
that's why they're on stage working through their stuff.

535
00:26:21.839 --> 00:26:23.839
A lot of trauma.

536
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:28.680
There's a lot of trauma inside comedians. Uh, we're We're

556
00:27:40.319 --> 00:27:48.480
twenty twenty five. Back to something extremely persistent when it

557
00:27:48.519 --> 00:27:51.799
comes to topics here inside the Treehouse Show. We've talked

558
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:55.079
a lot about Mount Everest over the past year, and

559
00:27:55.200 --> 00:27:57.599
we're going to do it some more right now, because

560
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:03.440
if you dream of climbing Mount Everest, pay attention because

561
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:08.119
Nepal has announced a major rule change for anyone who

562
00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:13.079
wants to climb Mount Everest. Nepal will grant permits to

563
00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:17.359
climb Mount Everest only to those people who have previously

564
00:28:17.400 --> 00:28:21.640
scaled at least one seven thousand meter peak within the country.

565
00:28:21.960 --> 00:28:24.720
Seven thousand meters, by the way, is just shy of

566
00:28:24.759 --> 00:28:29.200
twenty three thousand feet Everest is twenty nine thousand thirty feet.

567
00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:32.319
This is a major shift for the tourism dependent country

568
00:28:32.759 --> 00:28:36.920
on the world's highest mountain because of concerns overcrowding and

569
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:41.359
ecological imbalance, which both sound like code for the Shurpas

570
00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:41.920
are tired.

571
00:28:44.200 --> 00:28:47.200
The Sherpas are tired of having to go up and

572
00:28:47.279 --> 00:28:51.200
scale Everest and clean up everyone's crap.

573
00:28:53.039 --> 00:28:56.839
And metaphorically that is absolutely true. The Sherpas are not

574
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:02.480
physically tired. They're not physically tired because those guys are

575
00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:05.880
like mountaineering machines. I assume the sherps are just sick

576
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:09.240
of carrying American orthodontists that the kids called doctor Kyle

577
00:29:09.400 --> 00:29:10.319
up and down the mountain.

578
00:29:10.640 --> 00:29:13.000
Well, there was a whole documentary I think it's on

579
00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:16.440
Amazon about the sherpa is going up there and again

580
00:29:16.559 --> 00:29:20.599
you're going into an area called the death Zone that's

581
00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:23.359
so lacking oxygen, nothing lives where they have to go

582
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:27.160
up there basically in the off season and clean up

583
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:30.680
and and and bag up all these oxygen containers and

584
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:35.559
all this other stuff. I mean, regardless, disregard all the

585
00:29:35.599 --> 00:29:36.519
dead bodies up there.

586
00:29:36.839 --> 00:29:40.759
Yeah, and that's exactly true. And some of those people die.

587
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:43.839
Some of those people that die up there are left

588
00:29:43.920 --> 00:29:47.519
up there. Some actually get brought down by the sherp

589
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:50.359
is and tossed them to what I hope they call

590
00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:51.880
a pile of Kyle's.

591
00:29:51.680 --> 00:29:52.119
No, no, no.

592
00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:54.359
If you're dead, if you die up there, you're left.

593
00:29:54.480 --> 00:29:56.079
They do not say no.

594
00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:58.200
I think at a certain level they like if if

595
00:29:58.240 --> 00:30:00.839
you don't go beyond a certain point, they might bring

596
00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:02.480
you back. But if it's high up you're like no,

597
00:30:02.599 --> 00:30:02.880
you know.

598
00:30:02.880 --> 00:30:05.920
If you're still breathing, they will try to get you down.

599
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:09.839
If you're dead, you're that is your final burial.

600
00:30:10.240 --> 00:30:17.680
Like that's the rule. Somebody dies at base camps.

601
00:30:15.559 --> 00:30:18.599
Base camp make but I think probably past base two

602
00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:22.240
you're you're getting left up there because chances are, especially

603
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:26.279
the lower the altitude, you're probably got hit by an

604
00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:27.359
avalanche or something like that.

605
00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:29.079
They're not digging you out, they're not wasting their time.

606
00:30:29.480 --> 00:30:29.720
Yeah.

607
00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:33.000
Uh, but that that also if you've ever watched some

608
00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:34.599
of the videos over the last couple of years of

609
00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:38.279
the hundreds of people in line waiting to get to

610
00:30:38.319 --> 00:30:41.519
the summit, Yeah, and and a lot of it it's people.

611
00:30:41.880 --> 00:30:45.240
It's people with it rose here you go. It's stupid

612
00:30:45.279 --> 00:30:46.559
white people with too much money.

613
00:30:46.599 --> 00:30:51.400
Yes, And that's why I mentioned American orthodontists that the

614
00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:54.519
kids called doctor Kyle. Uh, because that's what it is.

615
00:30:54.559 --> 00:30:57.240
And this is where I think it's a good thing

616
00:30:57.359 --> 00:31:00.400
that Nepal is saying, Look, we're not going to you

617
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:06.039
amateur adventurists on this mountain for us to clean up

618
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:10.960
after or leave your body up there, because it's too busy,

619
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:13.480
it's too packed. The lines to the top of Everest

620
00:31:13.480 --> 00:31:15.480
are starting to look like the lines at the Texas

621
00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:19.839
giant at six Flags. It's gotten ridiculous. So now they're

622
00:31:19.839 --> 00:31:22.559
gonna say, in order for you to get a permit

623
00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:25.799
to climb Everest, you have to have climbed another peak

624
00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:30.079
in Nepal that's at least twenty three thousand feet, so

625
00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:33.279
you at least show some competency to make it to

626
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:36.200
the top of Everest and not die.

627
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:40.039
Yeah, you know you're gonna have all these white people

628
00:31:40.079 --> 00:31:42.759
from la and be like, I like Runyon so.

629
00:31:44.400 --> 00:31:44.960
They can do this.

630
00:31:45.079 --> 00:31:46.119
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

631
00:31:46.240 --> 00:31:48.640
The suppers are just tired of carrying trash bags full

632
00:31:48.680 --> 00:31:50.079
of monster energy drained down.

633
00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:54.960
I really do think that that that's a big part

634
00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:58.039
of it. I mean, and you know, the first thought is, Okay,

635
00:31:58.119 --> 00:32:00.759
is this is this new rule to I'm Everest a

636
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:03.880
good idea or is it possibly going to too severely

637
00:32:03.960 --> 00:32:08.720
hurt Nepal's tourism. I'm pretty sure Nepal's tourism like, we're good.

638
00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:11.759
They can just charge more. It's not like there's going

639
00:32:11.799 --> 00:32:14.759
to be a lack of people. And notice they said

640
00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:17.920
in country, so that means you've got to go hike

641
00:32:18.039 --> 00:32:21.480
another mountain in Nepal. So no, I think it's does

642
00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:24.880
nothing but help their business. Because when you go to Everest,

643
00:32:24.920 --> 00:32:27.400
it's not like wam bam, there, I did it. You're

644
00:32:27.440 --> 00:32:30.319
done in three or four days. It's usually a three

645
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:33.359
to five week period that you're up there from base

646
00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:37.519
camp camp and then acclimating. So, you know, the the

647
00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:39.759
stupid white people that you know want to plump plump

648
00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:43.480
down one hundred thousand plus they'll I think there's still

649
00:32:43.480 --> 00:32:44.079
plenty of them.

650
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:45.640
I would just like to say, by the way, because

651
00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:47.759
you guys keep saying stupid white people from LA, I

652
00:32:47.799 --> 00:32:50.279
have no desire to in.

653
00:32:50.920 --> 00:32:55.559
Yeah, I didn say LA.

654
00:32:55.599 --> 00:32:57.759
But that's that's why the topic is keep That's why

655
00:32:57.799 --> 00:33:02.200
the topic of Everest keeps coming up because at the

656
00:33:02.200 --> 00:33:05.759
core of the different races of humans, the whites are

657
00:33:05.799 --> 00:33:09.839
the ones that are really into adventurous stuff. Were the

658
00:33:09.839 --> 00:33:12.079
ones that get eaten by sharks, were the ones that

659
00:33:12.160 --> 00:33:14.720
die on Everest, were the ones that die hang gliding?

660
00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:19.079
Yes, like his life not scary enough. You gotta go

661
00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:20.359
look for it? What do you do?

662
00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:24.200
Yeah? Like, there was a guy during the NFL draft,

663
00:33:24.240 --> 00:33:26.720
a black kid who got drafted, and he missed his

664
00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:29.920
phone call because his name is Quinn Shawn and he

665
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:32.680
was taking a dump in the bathroom, whereas someone else

666
00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:35.200
that could have been picked is probably climbing up K

667
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:36.559
two somewhere in Nepal.

668
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:39.680
Yeah, yeah, he didn't get service because he was hand gliding.

669
00:33:41.960 --> 00:33:43.559
But that's why we always make fun of this guy,

670
00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:45.759
and then it really that's why it also leads me

671
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:49.279
to wonder. True said, it's like one hundred is that accurate?

672
00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:51.799
One hundred thousand dollars roughly.

673
00:33:51.480 --> 00:33:55.880
To It depends, however, but it's I would say minimum

674
00:33:55.920 --> 00:33:57.960
of probably seventy thousand, and then depends on.

675
00:34:00.400 --> 00:34:02.240
How cushy you want your experience to be.

676
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:04.440
Well, I mean it's gonna be at least ten fifteen,

677
00:34:04.559 --> 00:34:11.199
twenty thousand dollars in north Face apparel because I'm not

678
00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:18.280
going up there in some damn Columbia. I want the

679
00:34:18.320 --> 00:34:18.760

694
00:35:22.280 --> 00:35:27.440
Christian Gray in fifty Shades of Gray, not the character,

695
00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:29.880
but the guy that played him in the movies. Jamie

696
00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:33.480
Dornan is forty three today. Jamie Dornan turns forty three today.

697
00:35:33.760 --> 00:35:37.320
That's I didn't see any of the movies, but that's

698
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:39.400
the only thing I really know that guy from. So

699
00:35:39.480 --> 00:35:41.400
if anyone knows him from anything else, feel free to

700
00:35:41.480 --> 00:35:45.480
speak up. Nope, okay. Darius McCrary turns forty nine. He

701
00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:48.480
famously played Eddie Winslow on Family Matters?

702
00:35:49.880 --> 00:35:50.360
Is everyone?

703
00:35:50.800 --> 00:35:56.599
Are you guys aware of the Hollywood conspiracy surrounding Family Matters?

704
00:35:56.800 --> 00:36:01.719
And reginaldvel Johnson? No, but I would love to hear

705
00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:04.679
this all right, here we go, So there is a

706
00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:08.840
theory in some crazy people circles. I'm not saying I'm

707
00:36:08.880 --> 00:36:12.559
one of them. That Reginald Bell Johnson, who is the

708
00:36:12.679 --> 00:36:17.079
actor that plays the patriarch in Family Matters, was also

709
00:36:18.079 --> 00:36:23.280
the sidekick LA police officer Officer Al Powell in die

710
00:36:23.360 --> 00:36:28.000
Hard one and two. So the theory is that in

711
00:36:28.199 --> 00:36:33.400
die Hard, al Powell eventually goes home after die Hard

712
00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:36.760
and Nachotomy Plaza, and he goes home to his family

713
00:36:37.000 --> 00:36:38.159
and Family Matters.

714
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:40.440
So it's like all connected.

715
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:45.079
Yeah, it's like Aheard universe includes Family Matters and in

716
00:36:45.159 --> 00:36:47.559
the same world as John mcclan and.

717
00:36:48.639 --> 00:36:50.679
I really wish that he'd be like eating a twinkie

718
00:36:50.679 --> 00:36:51.400
in front of Arkle.

719
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:54.800
He was a cop in Family Matters.

720
00:36:55.440 --> 00:36:56.599
Yeah, exactly.

721
00:36:56.880 --> 00:36:59.840
See, there's this is kind of holds some water. And

722
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:02.159
now what makes it possible that if they do a

723
00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:05.280
die Hard six or seven, whatever number they're on, that

724
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:08.559
maybe Erkele makes an appearance. Trips Clay More and of

725
00:37:08.679 --> 00:37:10.639
course says, I do that, you know, I think I

726
00:37:10.719 --> 00:37:11.800
think it can all tie together.

727
00:37:12.440 --> 00:37:15.039
How you going to do another die Hard with uh no,

728
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:18.360
Bruce Wilves, Yeah, he can't talk anymore.

729
00:37:18.559 --> 00:37:21.440
Yeah, Well, one of the grooers, one of the groomers

730
00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:23.039
finally get him in the beginning.

731
00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:29.159
Just one act movie is weird.

732
00:37:31.679 --> 00:37:33.960
Literally, you just gotta just just put Bruce Willis in

733
00:37:33.960 --> 00:37:35.559
front of a camera. It just looks like a lost

734
00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:39.920
puppy in the kill him. Yeah, I think that's called

735
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:40.880
cruel and usual.

736
00:37:41.199 --> 00:37:43.440
Yeah, Oh, that's called the Hollywood. They will they will

737
00:37:43.519 --> 00:37:45.400
fund that and make millions of dollars.

738
00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:48.559
I mean Bruce will Like, that's the whole reason why.

739
00:37:49.440 --> 00:37:52.360
In the last so he probably hadn't made a movie

740
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:55.280
in five years, but but the five years preceding that,

741
00:37:56.039 --> 00:37:59.400
he made all sorts of crap movies, and it was

742
00:37:59.440 --> 00:38:01.639
because he knew he had a diagnosis and he was

743
00:38:01.800 --> 00:38:03.679
just it was a cash grab to get whatever he could.

744
00:38:04.159 --> 00:38:06.719
So and in a lot of those movies, he wasn't

745
00:38:06.760 --> 00:38:09.920
the star. He was on the poster, he had his name,

746
00:38:11.079 --> 00:38:13.760
you know, top billing before the title of the film,

747
00:38:14.079 --> 00:38:15.440
but he might have only been in the film for

748
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:16.840
like three or four minutes.

749
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:18.960
Yeah, because he couldn't remember any lines.

750
00:38:19.239 --> 00:38:22.199
Yeah, So in essence, they were just kind of propping

751
00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:24.679
him up and using his cloud to you know, make

752
00:38:24.719 --> 00:38:27.039
a little bit of money on some b C level

753
00:38:27.320 --> 00:38:32.440
rated action films. So the thought of them bringing him

754
00:38:32.519 --> 00:38:35.719
back for a final die Hard is not that out

755
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:36.519
of question.

756
00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:40.280
I mean, if you're to do a final Diehard though,

757
00:38:40.599 --> 00:38:42.639
you have to bring back Samuel Jackson though, don't you.

758
00:38:43.039 --> 00:38:47.519
Oh yeah, you got to bring back Zeus. You know what,

759
00:38:47.760 --> 00:38:51.400
maybe maybe there's a reunion there because in the universe

760
00:38:51.840 --> 00:38:55.239
where Al Powell from Die Hard from family Matters, the

761
00:38:55.280 --> 00:38:58.639
neighbor kid is Steve Rkele. Maybe Erkele's long lost dad

762
00:38:58.880 --> 00:39:01.159
is Zeus from die Heard with a vengeance.

763
00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:04.320
And maybe maybe Bruce Willis goes out, they put the

764
00:39:04.360 --> 00:39:06.639
sandwich board back on them and no one saves them.

765
00:39:11.800 --> 00:39:12.159

782
00:40:34.719 --> 00:40:37.559
Today is Thursday, May first, twenty twenty five. We were

783
00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:41.840
just celebrating birthdays today and before that we were talking

784
00:40:41.840 --> 00:40:46.320
about the new permit process that Nepal is instituting for

785
00:40:46.480 --> 00:40:49.960
people to climb Everest and Trey. You were telling us

786
00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:53.880
in a break that the airport, like just the airport

787
00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:58.840
to land to do the Everest hike is terrifying, let

788
00:40:58.840 --> 00:40:59.800
alone the mountain itself.

789
00:41:01.000 --> 00:41:02.000
Yes, it's.

790
00:41:03.440 --> 00:41:06.480
I'm actually sending you a video clip of it, but

791
00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:10.599
uh yeah, it's like you are literally it. It's a

792
00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:12.400
runway carved out on the side of a mountain.

793
00:41:12.760 --> 00:41:17.519
Is Oh so my worst nightmare. I already hate heights,

794
00:41:17.599 --> 00:41:19.639
so I'm not going anywhere near the top of Everest.

795
00:41:19.719 --> 00:41:21.519
Yeah, just scary me.

796
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:24.119
I would even hike It's it wouldn't even be hiking Everest,

797
00:41:24.159 --> 00:41:26.360
it would just be landing at the airport to.

798
00:41:26.480 --> 00:41:27.840
Go to Everest. Yeah.

799
00:41:27.840 --> 00:41:30.280
I don't think I could even do that first part successfully.

800
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:33.920
Yeah, yeah, and when you like I So I've been

801
00:41:33.960 --> 00:41:37.920
to that airport. Uh well, I mean there's the one

802
00:41:37.960 --> 00:41:39.840
in Ladoc is very similar. I'm sure there's one in

803
00:41:40.239 --> 00:41:44.719
actual Nepal, but no is the one is the one? Yeah, okay,

804
00:41:44.880 --> 00:41:47.480
ladoncas I've been to that airport. When you land, you

805
00:41:47.639 --> 00:41:53.320
land at fourteen feet above sea level, so you have

806
00:41:53.480 --> 00:41:57.280
to be you have to have blood thinners otherwise you

807
00:41:59.079 --> 00:42:01.559
it's this weird phenomenon that happens.

808
00:42:02.000 --> 00:42:03.880
I got. So we were in Delhi. From Delhi to

809
00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:04.760
the DOC is an.

810
00:42:04.719 --> 00:42:08.119
Hour and a half flight, which you wouldn't think from

811
00:42:08.320 --> 00:42:11.840
you know, North India to like the northern most part

812
00:42:11.920 --> 00:42:16.159
of India with the Himalays. And I got my blood

813
00:42:16.159 --> 00:42:18.800
thinner at six o'clock in the morning, but we didn't

814
00:42:18.880 --> 00:42:21.800
fly out until noon, and we didn't land until like

815
00:42:21.880 --> 00:42:26.719
almost two, so my blood thinner had worn off. And

816
00:42:26.920 --> 00:42:30.320
you land at fourteen nine hundred feet above sea level

817
00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:33.920
with no blood thinner. It makes for a very interesting situation.

818
00:42:34.760 --> 00:42:37.840
The only way I can explain it is if you

819
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:41.800
were like when you were in high school or maybe

820
00:42:41.920 --> 00:42:43.320
you know, your first couple of years of college or

821
00:42:43.360 --> 00:42:46.400
at home, and you come home like on a Friday

822
00:42:46.480 --> 00:42:48.519
night and you think your parents are asleep, but they're

823
00:42:48.519 --> 00:42:51.679
still awake, and you're drunk, so you try to pretend

824
00:42:51.800 --> 00:42:54.639
like you're not drunk, but they know you're drunk, but

825
00:42:55.559 --> 00:42:56.079
you think.

826
00:42:55.960 --> 00:42:56.480
They don't know.

827
00:42:56.800 --> 00:43:00.480
So I was walking through the the doc airport and

828
00:43:00.719 --> 00:43:04.159
I was so loud and it was it's the drunkest

829
00:43:04.199 --> 00:43:09.440
you can feel without having any alcohol. I was loud,

830
00:43:09.719 --> 00:43:13.440
I was over enunciating everything, and I was like trying

831
00:43:13.480 --> 00:43:15.840
to play it cool, like just had my luggage and

832
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:16.119
I'm like.

833
00:43:16.159 --> 00:43:18.679
How are you guys today? Thank you so much for

834
00:43:18.920 --> 00:43:19.800
having a here.

835
00:43:20.639 --> 00:43:25.159
And my handler came running up and she's like, when

836
00:43:25.320 --> 00:43:26.880
was the last time you had a blood diner. I

837
00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:29.639
was like, you gave me one at six and she's like,

838
00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:34.559
oh crap. So she ran to the medical van and

839
00:43:34.800 --> 00:43:37.239
went and got the blood dinner and within three minutes

840
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:41.000
it was all over and we were good. But yeah,

841
00:43:41.079 --> 00:43:43.480
it's a very interesting feeling and to land it that

842
00:43:43.599 --> 00:43:45.800
high and you could see Everest, which was really cool.

843
00:43:46.760 --> 00:43:49.599
But then we went to Pengong Lake, which is eighteen

844
00:43:50.039 --> 00:43:52.320
nine hundred feet above sea level, and the road that

845
00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:54.719
goes there is supposed to be a two lane road,

846
00:43:55.440 --> 00:43:59.119
but it only fits one car and there's no guardrails

847
00:43:59.480 --> 00:43:59.679
on the.

848
00:43:59.760 --> 00:44:01.119
Side, noep nop.

849
00:44:01.280 --> 00:44:03.880
And I I started like when the guy would turn,

850
00:44:04.000 --> 00:44:06.119
like the wheels, like the tires would be on the

851
00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:09.119
edge of the to let the other cars go by.

852
00:44:09.480 --> 00:44:13.280
What so I mean? I started making stuff up, like

853
00:44:13.360 --> 00:44:15.960
we like make a turn and you could like feel

854
00:44:16.159 --> 00:44:19.280
like the like half the tires on the road and

855
00:44:19.360 --> 00:44:20.760
half the tires not so.

856
00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:24.000
I hate when people clap when you land a plane, right, yeah,

857
00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:27.639
I would. I would would be constantly clapping on that

858
00:44:27.920 --> 00:44:30.400
road anytime we did a successful three point turn.

859
00:44:31.280 --> 00:44:33.239
Oh my god, I would. I was making stuff up.

860
00:44:33.280 --> 00:44:34.880
I was like, you know, please just get me to

861
00:44:35.119 --> 00:44:37.159
peng On Lake safe. You know, my kids are waiting

862
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:37.760
for me at home.

863
00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:38.880
I don't have kids.

864
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:41.920
It was just making it up.

865
00:44:43.360 --> 00:44:45.719
Again. And this is my love of documentaries. But some

866
00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:49.519
of the documentaries about Everest, and there's one that almost

867
00:44:49.840 --> 00:44:51.639
part of it or half of it is just the

868
00:44:51.760 --> 00:44:55.280
trip to get to base camp at Everest, and the

869
00:44:55.480 --> 00:44:59.079
the as Raj describes the roads that you may be

870
00:44:59.159 --> 00:45:00.840
hanging off the side of the mountain because there may

871
00:45:00.880 --> 00:45:02.800
be another car. They may be a herd or goats

872
00:45:03.199 --> 00:45:06.480
you don't know, true. And and then some of the

873
00:45:06.559 --> 00:45:11.599
bridges you walk over, Dan, you would not survive. No,

874
00:45:12.559 --> 00:45:16.480
I'm not going because a couple of them, they just

875
00:45:17.400 --> 00:45:19.239
they look like something out of Indiana Jones and the

876
00:45:19.239 --> 00:45:19.840
Temple of Doom.

877
00:45:20.960 --> 00:45:21.719
Yeah, dude, no way.

878
00:45:21.800 --> 00:45:24.199
I had an actual panic attack driving over the Golden

879
00:45:24.239 --> 00:45:25.360
Gate Bridge recently.

880
00:45:29.039 --> 00:45:30.760
I've been there and I was kind. I didn't I

881
00:45:31.000 --> 00:45:33.800
couldn't even walk out halfway. I think I went about

882
00:45:33.800 --> 00:45:35.639
a quarter of the way out onto the bridge and.

883
00:45:35.880 --> 00:45:38.679
I'm good, I'm good. Yeah, I can't know, there's no way.

884
00:45:39.079 --> 00:45:39.719
And then we did.

885
00:45:40.199 --> 00:45:42.599
We did part of it on motorcycles. Uh, and it

886
00:45:42.719 --> 00:45:46.440
was snowing, so now snow in a fast.

887
00:45:46.239 --> 00:45:47.280
And furious.

888
00:45:48.880 --> 00:45:50.800
Where where did this white part of you come from?

889
00:45:52.760 --> 00:45:54.840
It's a very Indian It's yeah, it's a very Indian

890
00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:58.679
thing to travel on motorbike. But yeah, I mean we

891
00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:00.599
did the We did the motorcycle and it was.

892
00:46:02.119 --> 00:46:05.920
Same thing. There's no guardrails at all. And so like

893
00:46:06.039 --> 00:46:06.400
we had the.

894
00:46:06.400 --> 00:46:09.000
Military, the Indian military came by because they were doing

895
00:46:09.079 --> 00:46:11.599
some work on the bridge that was that we were

896
00:46:11.760 --> 00:46:12.800
actually going to be crossing.

897
00:46:14.119 --> 00:46:14.320
Yeah.

898
00:46:16.199 --> 00:46:18.400
Uh, but I mean and they were going by so

899
00:46:18.480 --> 00:46:20.079
we had to kind of pull over to the side

900
00:46:20.920 --> 00:46:22.360
and like literally, you know.

901
00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:23.719
The one one of the.

902
00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:25.599
Drivers was like, you know, everything's gonna be fine.

903
00:46:25.639 --> 00:46:25.760
Man.

904
00:46:25.840 --> 00:46:27.559
You know I have kids too, and I'm like in

905
00:46:27.639 --> 00:46:29.039
my head, I'm like, I don't have kids. I just

906
00:46:29.039 --> 00:46:29.920
don't want you to kill me.

907
00:46:31.079 --> 00:46:33.639
There is no way I'm going out on a bridge

908
00:46:33.719 --> 00:46:36.880
where they just took the under construction signed off it.

909
00:46:37.280 --> 00:46:39.840
And he goes, nothing, nothing really happens here. And I

910
00:46:39.960 --> 00:46:43.199
look down and there's a burned out there's like two

911
00:46:43.280 --> 00:46:46.719
burned out trucks, and I go, what's that. He goes, Oh,

912
00:46:46.800 --> 00:46:49.920
that happened yesterday. I go, so, what do you do

913
00:46:50.079 --> 00:46:51.840
with the because it's in the in the ravine, And

914
00:46:51.920 --> 00:46:53.519
I go, what do you do with the bodies? He goes,

915
00:46:53.559 --> 00:46:56.360
they stay there like there's nobody going down there to

916
00:46:57.039 --> 00:46:59.360
