Transcript

0:00 Joe Rogan Experience. And Balls of Steel sent me this, uh, this... Maybe it's just it was so good that he just knew that all someone had to do was hear it. to tell you I really loved you in that movie you couldn't give a fuck about that movie so you just is that Italian on top of a roof I guess It was like country, sort of twangy. I'm seriously. I don't believe is that I believe you guys are on the launching pad and I

2:56 For me at least. I don't know if I would play that like that I can't play shit I don't know This might be that showbiz thing that you were just talking about And what he means by that is that it's really hard to get funny. but getting to that level it's like there's a lot of shit that happens it's it's a long process I just love the chaos of the moment.

5:15 orbit. Unlike you guys, But there's like old bits that I have, man Like someone will yell out something and I'm like, good luck with that one. aguilera did it seriously it's what did christina she she did that with uh the super bowl though There's a lot going on there. Pull it up. There's no way it could be that kind of volume. That's fantastic. And I like, again, Conmigo.

7:32 If she's sweating, that's probably what it is. That's period blood, bro. That was spring break, 2004. this is like the first time I've ever met a band through Twitter i can't just tweet you and go holy guys you guys are shit you can't do that you know it's a bizarre That doesn't make sense actually mathematically. Austin, Texas. A lot of bands in Austin, Texas.

9:15 I'm from New York, Massachusetts area. Good times. And we are. Yeah. but you're stuck through circumstances. We've got to tweet. No, he basically said, I responded. Damn. Well, he didn't even know. Let's keep going with this. That's what you were hoping? All you have to do is respond. That's all they want you to do they want you they want to get a read a green light

12:53 people that you're going to interact with and your They said something rude to get you enticed. I'm a loser. We're getting tweeted at by trolls right now. Look, trolling is kind of tricky. They do need love. Okay. with a lot of people. Sounds like someone wants a woke up. I don't want to kill them. Stop it, Brian. Oh, you don't have to be grateful.

15:24 By the time you do that, the interview gets in a magazine, it's months later, now just, boop, immediately. You know, they just somehow or another, well, what are we going to do? And there's no CDs now, doesn't it? Is cassette good enough? Someone can put that in your watch. Joe's mixtape, you can have your mixtape. Oh yeah, you make your own He's about to go on the road, and I want to shake that man's hand.

17:21 Thank you. It's a cunt farm. or something like that right it's like that We're getting hammered in front of each other, I was born in New Jersey and I grew up mostly in Boston. I support you, Frankie Edgar, in your bid for a rematch. My friend Wendy Wang, a lady. So just let it go. Did you like it? You're in. I'm so in. I'll totally hook you guys up.

19:54 walking on your fucking hands for hours so a woman's legs are incredibly strong and if a woman She does everything. That had like a reality show on Showtime where it was like, you know, Because when they started rolling, she fucking manhandled him. It was like over and over and leverage I mean. It was wild to watch because I'd never like a man with no training go with a woman

22:07 What? That's the truth. All these other indie rock hoes in Los Angeles. they would do a nonprofit. The door money went to this group, Coach Art. path with this body i'd go with the nba Yeah, because I think it would be exciting for people to watch. an entire year training for the NBA. i'm thinking about freezing my semen too yeah i've done that okay let's do it at home not let's not

24:50 Amazing. Come on. Good boy, George. Studio. Whoa. But. I want to be the executive producer. beyond the arc is really what I need to develop with my sets. We'll see. There's been some situations where you had to establish a position. Well, you did, you and the rest of the band. Do you like diaries? No, my basketball passion is picked up. At least in this pickup basketball.

27:04 It's like, you know, it's all about improvisational but there is Jogging suits. Really? You're way too cool. Did that inspire good music? Because my roommate was a booker at the time and I didn't know anybody I met my roommate on how long ago we're talking Well, it's all about answers. Like, my first show, I met all these people that i'm still friends with today and every time it just like snowballed and then

29:31 They're not bad, man. What's your impressions of each other? stuff just happened I you know we kind of got outside forces like this And then we started writing together, and we just had a great relationship. Yeah, those are my people. I've been there. I go there for like a 1 p.m. lunch breakfast sort of a thing. It's a soul food place. I'm reaching off my money train.

31:54 Yeah, it's just, like, random stuff. Are you guys writing it all together? And it's become something that's really, I can humbly say like once you're secure with exist and through you or collaboration or whatever it is boom all of a but there's a difference There's something that happens in any form of art, that it can be universally applicable, you know what I mean?

35:04 Do you know that little kid? Do you know that little kid? Yeah, I know who you're talking about. You got to pee? But it's like, again, it's like, thanks, Ben. and the paparazzi and all this nonsense. Yeah, that's funny. That's going to suck for you. All Brian likes is like... Are you a jam band kind of guy? Okay, dude, pull that shit up. I love that.

38:40 So hit the fucking road and hiss up a rope But basically, they wrote this tune. calzone type thing and it's like where the cheese go where the cheese go and That's hilarious. That used to be my ringtone back in the day. time we talk about all the time like this this an app stitcher that were available on you get your car now There's an instant that you have when you're a comedian to say the worst shit possible all the time.

41:38 Just get the word out there. put your music out there, and keep going. you can if you just It would be a shame if you got as far as you got, and then suddenly it all falls apart I never said Jewish. What? make me go there? Don't challenge me. given you any Those fucks. basically you know like i aforementioned earlier that like you know our band we're at this level

44:34 trying to figure out how to do things that, I'm going to hook you up. Probably, yeah. And he knows he can't fuck you. he knows he can't fuck you he knows he up, the better it would be for everybody. Listen to me. You're a very pretty girl. to death. I've had the same manager since I was an open The bottom line is, I would have fucked. So if you're a person and you like this,

48:03 listen, dude, you know, you're going I don't know. Is this fucking beard thing going on? and keep going, you know, Douchey about it. Can you get a tattoo around your areola that looks like a regular? It's weird. I mean, I used to do some modeling back in the day.

1:09:08 Sorry. Microphones move. Thank you. girl's creepy or someone's creepy. 26. To have your shit together this well and to be buddies like this there's a lot of getting over ego in this situation which i think has only served both of us you know Oh, boy. It's really compelling stuff. It's really good. Thank produce. What you produce is so fascinating. It's really compelling stuff.

1:11:43 It's like we're not selling a million records right now, and that be cool if we did um but you know we're working our asses off mainstream now it's like you're not the same you know what you were like right You guys are like right there when the guy Wow. Wow, he doesn't give a shit. So I was like, wow. Even if it was my worst enemy, I would have never done that.

1:14:27 Well, I don't know. harp is a beautiful it sounds like shit that I really like to differ with you something wrong with the violin doesn't understand life you know it's not there's Yeah, yeah. country that's more like rockabilly kind of unfortunate rock and roll oh really each other like the way the way the writing is. We opened up for him a couple times.

1:17:36 And I really like those guys, too, by the way. or you can't listen to it because it's that one person in your life. The sting of the past? you know what man I don't mean old my testicular output that I really like, you know? I'm a free bird. It was like over and over and over again the Southern rock. I used to listen to those records all the time like Texas Flood and all that shit. Dude, come on man.

1:20:17 Oh, my God. But the only guy who ever took a song that Hendrix did and put it in a different place, in the background. Yeah. in Boston when I was 19. He would only take cabs. That's cool. Every once in a while. something that was like the opposite of that And one of the things that he proposed that every samurai should also be an artist. I used to even literally think that sex, like pleasure, was a weakness.

1:22:59 It was exactly. like the feminine aspects of things. I got into like, dude. You're not good. Let's not talk about it. They're fucking terrified. You know what I mean like you can you can act. You can be as tough as you want to be. If you take your fiber. before you sort of accept the fact that, you know, You would think that... But in life in general, you know what I mean?

1:26:28 That is sometimes a fucking wrestling match, isn't it? Early, late 20s. Thank you. I felt like I needed to balance myself out. No, I did when I was young. I'd done it so much when I was a young kid. There was so much that's fascinating about that book weaknesses are how to improve upon himself and so this was his approach you know and i just always

1:28:55 was so focused on accepting the entirety of himself We require someone who leads by example. So what are you imitating? It became what it is. It's why we love, you know, the great You know? you're going there as a successful entertainer. And they were so polite. Easiest to get past the security also remember that yeah what was going on, so I was like, it's okay.

1:32:24 You can never just let a guy come up to you and go, I've got much more uncommon than it is in America. You can never just, you know, Suzanne lived in, I didn't, Jesus Christ. Come on, man. I was. No, my parents are really amazing people. You're too young. It's okay. And what led you on this crazy journey to be a model in Japan at 16 years old? the agency

1:35:17 You grew up hardcore, kid. No, no. Three sisters. Of course they let you go. Of course they let you go. It's that they would have been terrified of losing you. you stayed there? I was there or bad for me. do you have a song written about this no no no we made out right we ate we ate popsicles and Yeah, you might be the coolest chick of all time. A lot of big shows you were saying at your show in Santa Monica

1:37:58 Honey, honey band at Twitter, okay? We've got a big summer. They don't pay for shit? I'm sure you are, but isn't that a little odd that South by Southwest? paying anybody? And so he made this whole how South by Southwest works? That means that somebody's donating bottles. The Montreal Comedy Festival used to be called Just for Laughs, No. showcase. I would be cool if they just paid for

1:40:41 The internet is your friend. your thoughts, put up tents. What happened to Days Inn? If there's a Days Inn, don't go. Brian, it's the worst. But I don't think you can generalize. Okay, that's not enough to judge. That does happen occasionally. So you're the ones that are going to look like assholes. loose change Some dude in 213 tried to pick a fight with me.

1:43:03 How dare you, Ben? I need you guys for inspiration Brian why did you have to We need to make that shirt. When he says something completely inappropriate Fuck yeah. I know. What does that mean? I don't have them anymore, and I don't know how to play anymore. Sorry, we're tuning via Yeah. Too many people got drunk and drowned in the river. That's so awesome.

1:46:13 Especially in Hollywood. related question and drew carrie like made a a point of like look at him in the eye and go listen which is good because yeah it's almost accurate it's it's possible to stay stay a nice person in are tweeting me it's always some weird fucking thing a guy got eaten by a crocodile and this I need somewhere to press the green light.

1:48:51 But everybody has a different way of writing. know like when you have an idea like a lot of times like brian's done a lot of stand-up too About writing jokes? Well, you know, that's not the wrong way. You say it's the wrong way. It's not the wrong way fuck we gotta write this script and then they would write like 90 percent of the time maybe I think it's a good way to do it.

1:51:18 and then I try to find a way go way out of my way to thank people and wait after shows and take pictures of people like I But you guys can come up You go up on stage with some, them and they don't work there's also a lot of times do you guys feel that with songs do you have songs that you get to a certain point in time I'm kidding. I feel like that record was a rush, you know what I mean?

1:54:43 Don't you think? Like, that's back when they were really putting it together. I think that's the progression of the universe. You know, it's just good to just keep going. It's like it's really, you know, in order to have like such a depth to what you're saying But there's certain twists and turns in the narrative there's certain twists and turns and how you're describing things that just you know as

1:57:43 You just hope that somehow or another you knock someone on their ass like that LA River song does You're very emotional I'm a little emotional today, right? I'm on my period too much I don't know, man. everything is moving in the right direction, You know, I talked about you online. You know what though? I think you're right. Absolutely. There's a fucking hundred balls

2:00:09 He's so fucking funny, too. I bet he is. But I really believe that if you had chosen to be great at anything, you'd be great at anything. what people call talent. There is no way you can't tell So there's a certain amount of physical and athletic talent. There's a difference. and maybe their ego or whatever. Looking at life like in in terms of looking at it like a competition or looking like it as you have to be competitive

2:03:13 Fellow bands and a lot of like weird shit that goes on like, you know are usually people I really admire. like, I love that you keep saying that we inspire you. That's such an honor. And I feel Go be entertained. i think it's a very healthy thing yeah you know what i mean as is listening to your old shit that All right, so you're going to play Angel of Death?

2:05:42 I bury myself deep inside your heart they cried. And many went from come knocking Keep your hand on your chest, don't let me whisper in your ear yeah mine's the voice you never Outstanding.
