0:00 Joe Rogan Podcast, check it out! I was very much looking forward to it. Thank you. They're changing their shit up like crazy selling barbecue to work And then there you were on stage. in a positive and exciting way And like everybody, it was so, that was really cool to just be like amongst these people and and feel like you belong there you like working with them what is that is it mind fuck like what's what's

3:29 song yeah jesus christ and and um to be you know so amazingly generous to us is is really humbling and just like it's it's pretty crazy i had a a friend of mine's girlfriend question whether or fart in my space with your brain And no disrespect to the other people we've toured with because they've been incredible. She's very tiny. But then she's right there, you know?

5:10 I didn't say anything, though. How many people would do that? Well, that's like, not to be disgusting, There's, you know, Yeah. This is, you can't, rage against the machine. You know, out of the job. You've trashed the hotel room? Even if you sell it out, people are working. That's why I'm just kidding oh right to stay in the hotel too You're like,

7:55 Well, What part of it? His toilet had this like backup thing last night and it smelled horrible. I'm just kidding. How does that work? That's what I was figuring out. How does that work as far as my That's kind of a fascinating trip, isn't it? isn't it i mean it's almost like an admittance that it was all stolen. gambling. Come on in. These are grand places.

11:03 Everybody gets a check? check yes that's sweet Let's figure they have it figured out. Really? Oh, wow. lot and they fought outside oh man fight club style they fought outside. Oh, man. Fight club style. They fought outside. Indie rock fighting. and slipping and sliding all over the place. And they were allowed to do that only because it was Indian reservations.

13:17 They had no problem with it. one of those old west yes old timey days but you know it was one of the last sort of one of the but it's also, you know, real in a sense that that was, happening now, which is a lot of poverty. And so it's, not to go back to where I started, At a gas station? And I was like, people can fucking suck it. you know treats leashes in the parking lot of the Walmart she took the biggest

17:13 essentially no you know i don't think she's she definitely trained at all she is now she is that I can't say that I felt that in my adulthood. It's like, man, maybe we just go into this bathroom real quick and pee, I talk in my sleep. a bathroom in your dream and you peed i haven't't done that. Never when you were a little kid? I don't think so. It's totally normal.

19:13 That's impressive and your options are piss all over yourself. Oh, yeah, for sure. One of my favorite moments of travel and meeting random people has to do with a girl peeing in front of a hotel. I was going to say, no, that's in Atlanta. what the fuck you so she winds up mark winds up leaving we wind up and this girl is friends with I'm missing that roast beef sandwich

21:25 Literally grabs her and runs with her. Like I'm some kind of fucking animal Yeah, you had a big ass tape in it That's a good tip, actually. She really did have to use the bathroom. awesome shit. Follow. man do you find it weird how different the vibe is from city to city the cities are so or lobby area moments. But, like, I find that in the southern style,

24:38 That kind of thing. two people once we'd ordered the the woman who's making the sandwiches and this guy who walked in Mm-hmm. A lot of flavor in the South. Yeah. There's every flavor and just everything you want. Are you familiar with the band Jackal? I think he would... Probably. And he actually was affiliated with our record company. He had created a guitar out of a chainsaw.

27:26 play it and then he'll usually like shred things like a wooden chair jesus yeah we played this that is so crazy. How can you not, I can hear it. Yes, yes, yes. We're just trying to figure out how to, And I just, I remember being like, i think this is what we're supposed to do I mean, there's nothing wrong with it. That's crazy. I mean, I don't know how I feel about it, to be honest with you.

30:48 illegally and then people are doing things that are risky isn't it legal in vegas yeah nevada no Yeah, I mean, look. That's what's keeping you? Fuck working at Wendy's. and everybody's so happy there. It's pretty obvious that's where I'd be. to each other on one side and a bunch and that was the whole fucking town i mean it's like the yeah actually yes

32:55 you had to get used where it was an actual You get killed by bandits or something or the Indian tribe that you stole the land from is going to kill you. Fuck yeah, you can. It was like New York City. and we were stopping to get some lunch, Well, then you realize all these towns, Just killing motherfuckers. They were on fucking horses, man. 1800s in new york city um and and it bases around this figure who's using psychology to solve these

36:29 There was a lot. oh let's not talk about it i was up three was up three games, okay? I was up three nothing, and I was fucking killing it. And I got really mad, and I didn't talk to Ben for like an hour. For real. That can't be true. If she's not beating me, something is wrong. The whiskey's getting yoked. Probably like six or seven years, you know.

38:46 I played with him once. Yeah. I need this right now. It's really funny. I've been the asshole. and you know sometimes you drive like a slight bout of depression. where we're at and part of why we should talk about our kickstarter campaign um because it's we're pretty resilient. Yeah, we fight a lot in the car when it's like, turn left, turn left. You know what I mean?

42:13 What is the Kickstarter thing about? We love you too, Viola. We have traveled hundreds of miles to see you. I'm positive that's what he meant. It's a rooster. He liked it. We took a little off the top, but that's fine. We're sorry if we've wasted your time Fuck you donkey If you've made it this far, you are either a diehard Honey Honey fan or you're just really into donkeys.

46:12 This will cover our van rental, our tour manager, performing it all over the country, Being touched by you. because this hasn't been refreshed that's really good it's great Put a Kickstarter saying like, hey, help me buy this pizza. But the biggest reward is if someone donates a thousand dollars which is a employing tactics like sarcasm, I have a question, though.

49:00 Oh, come on, Brian. Can you see them as they see you on Skype? so that you use your own identity. You son of a bitch What if we find out it's all just one person for Twitter. I'll be back. That's what I would say. It's probably as high as I've ever been on Earth doing a podcast. This is like the LA Speedweed, and on the back it says 17% THC, and it tells you the amount that's in it.

51:32 That shit didn't even exist before. Sort of. This contains, Yeah. You know? No, I don't really smoke weed that often. And I was like, I can't really fucking bite it, so I'll just take the whole thing. was floating above them and i was freaking out wow it was amazing actually you know what i'll I was just high as a kite. I've dreamed about this moment.

54:51 Especially around like 100,000 people. but just in the interest of information, Like you're gone. I mean, you see them. And it's, you know, It was in a real life situation. then they called 9-1-1 the cops actually called 9-1-1 because they thought they were dying What happened, you crazy assholes? Yeah, I think it's really similar to mushrooms. But really it's probably just being aware, you know.

58:16 Whoa. decade earlier, it would have been a real simple But what I'm saying is that at least you could sell records then. How much has the music industry, record sales and stuff, what itunes tells them you know whereas before they were kind of making up the rules you know Barely at all. because as long as people are listening as we are and and then you know keep keep the sort of windfall ball rolling you know that that can you know get to that place where you're really sustained you know and you're really you're

1:01:58 I mean, isn't it all just about more people seeing your stuff, more people hearing your stuff? Because I'll fucking cry. It's like, you don't get rich, you know, quickly. show tv somewhere there's actual money there but that's such a tiny window you know so and what right to them, no filter, no nothing. But I was like, you guys are, Well, you know, you guys are silly.

1:04:27 I'm like, what the fuck is with the lipstick on the cheeks? Yeah, man, fucking you, please put some WD-40 on that door. grow up you little baby on the road though Oh, it was amazing. Yeah. A lot of great people. That's so is really cool. Cincinnati was a huge one. Yeah. Go give Cleveland some love. It was one of the comedy clubs. With Joey Diaz. Yeah.

1:06:28 Dude. It's like it used to be a real grunge kind of punk bar, you know, rock. We've been so lucky, man. who's being a dick. You know, when we went to see it was so powerful it's like wow this is wild I am fascinated by music because I I don't know man I appreciate that of um stuff and is is kind of terrifying because you can't have a lull in your comedic set like

1:09:13 I don't have to. We're so excited. their scene. but he said, Oh, there's Jason Ritter, who was awesome to hang out with him that day. How rude. No, don't talk about his girlfriends. I'm single. Yes, I do. Like, what's a long? It's so fascinating because you guys are so Sure, right. But essentially, it is Twitter and Facebook. favorite just i was like this is so. This guy sent me a message.

1:13:19 You look mad Bob Dylan there, kid. Oh, man. and I listened to the podcast that you did. it was amazing. Yeah, and he's become one of our friends, too, and he's special. He's a great and he's a great guy i love the fuck out of that dude him and brian are feuding should we have an intervention Okay. Do ecstasy and go to church. That sounds like you could get an infection.

1:16:08 No, not myself personally, but I have had friends who have done, you know, I don't know. It would just cause problems. No whipped cream. Let's forget the whole thing. Nine and a half weeks? Pretty gay. Way before. But I think some of it was a little bit of reconstructive stuff yeah he got he got like he had like real problems apparently i read He was boxing.

1:19:07 you guys fought so hard. or something, okay? Yeah, yeah, he did well. I think he won some. I That's a wild ass move. He's still alive. Did he win any bouts or anything? Yeah. He's getting punched in the face and shit. He's probably a pretty big guy. I'm feeling a little warm. So basically, I could drink river water out of this thing. on the Outdoorsman channel.

1:20:49 That's it. Yeah, I used to go fishing a lot. Holy shit. and primary caregivers may continue to distribute the drug. somebody's getting hurt why are any resources being spent in this way it's just so silly well Especially while you're selling liquor at a liquor store and drugs at the CVS. that's okay. more dangerous for almost everything. solved all the murders you haven't you know stopped all the crimes why are you wasting any

1:24:08 I just ate. Otherwise, I'll be... Yeah, they're fun. to help us a lot um and Sheryl Crow's been amazing and um actually Ben and I need to finish writing It's great. Oh, cool. So we, like, crash with friends. Yes. But the coolest part is that I feel really good about the tunes or writing and, your life narrowed down to such a focus guess oh yeah yeah i share it with stand-up comedy it's a very similar sort of a intense

1:27:18 these things that you thought up, And that's what happens when you do comedy as well. Okay, cool. Oh, that's great. You know? um, you know, and you're just like it's quiet you could hear a pin drop which is good but it's like totally And it was like a wave crashing over you. happened at Coachella I felt like yeah there was people are so excited to be there at Coachella

1:30:15 from the crowd and everyone just gave you is why it sounds well it's because they're fucking jazzed up with adrenaline they're probably like I mean people screaming at the top of their lungs The KISS Army. gotta accept that it's like dude you just pissed your pants dude Holy shit, that's a lot of people. You know what, though? I feel like that energy is,

1:33:25 moment of of revelation um from one of our first or second tours i i'm getting a little crazy but Yeah, because it's dangerous. Someone screaming and yelling at people. I think people in that position have... which is, you know, sometimes it's the opening band. Yeah. It's like you're not going to have anything else And the universe doesn't like cunts.

1:36:22 You know, I got this writing program that I use on my computer and it won't learn cunt Here's the news if you want to look at what happens. Let's go live to Doug Kolk in downtown L.A. We need to come up with something that's going to work, something the police department can The crime is pot. this is so important to me. He also tells me he has no clue which way it's going to go.

1:39:34 If they just want to close it down to have stores because of neighborhoods and crime, that's one thing. But if you could have it delivered like pizza, because that's still, I believe, legal. making more traffic, stoner traffic. Do they? Look at the both of them. You're like, I'm cool with that. Smoking weed? The best, I think, you know, vessel has been a spliff for me because it's just a little bit.

1:41:35 enjoy a cigarette but i don't smoke all the time that's an internet meme what right there what you No, it's hilarious. because I'm a singer. Think about that. But when you do it, it's totally different. Whatever it is, the whole awesomeness of it. that's a crazy noise she can make with her mouth. And then even crazier, or wherever the fuck you were, because there was a rooftop. It was a rooftop. Oh, yeah. But because

1:44:09 Can I request something? Okay. Oh, I'm sorry. You would have to actually have the right stuff. You just know by your hearing it? oh really which is good oh you're one of Yeah, I love Jimi.

You're making no sense. So fucking stupid. We're getting suppressed, ladies and gentlemen. I don't know what I meant. You know, lately it's been, constantly going from town to town, and then trying to squeeze in some writing.

1:55:30 Oh, it's very cold. and you write it down, put it in your iPhone or something, and you'll just have an idea, and you write it down, away at and they've started as one thing and then it's been this completely different you know you want to be at. but it's so different. because, you know, you're both very unique, something crazy says john fascinating so it's a fascinating relationship you know that you and
