From workhouse connect in aj Benza fame. He'd like to be walked on a leash and play really dirty, kinky sex games. He's the guy put the cock in the Peacock network. Okay, bitch, hey, everybody aj Benzi here was fame is a bitch. It is Monday, April twenty five, twenty twenty two. Let's call this show Monday Mania, Monday Madness, Monday

mindfulness. There's a lot to uncover and talk about today. It's coming at you at twelve thirty seven pm as I do this on the West Coast from beautiful downtown Burbank, as Johnny Carson or Ed McMahon used to say, or was that the other guy, Doc Severnton. Either way, coming at you from beautiful downtown Burbank, and downtown Burbank is beautiful. There are many great things I see as I venture outside these motel room doors with my dog and

get breakfast and what have you, And I don't know. My life is very different now. I had the kids all weekend, which was fantastic, and as many of you heard the Saturday Free Show, I spoke about that about that a bit. I spoke about seeing the great Nicholas Cage movie, the Unbearable was it? The inbearable laitness of massive talent? Whatever it is? The new Nick Cage movie is fantastic, and I spoke about that.

But I'm a different person now than I used to be. Um. I don't want this to come across boring by any means, but maybe some of you are going through these types of changes in your life. But I've I've had to become kind of a different man. I'll delve into this deeper on the Patreon show tomorrow, but I've had to now that time with the kids is not constant, now that it's doled out in different days and hours and weekends. What have you? You realize as a father you no longer have

infinite time to teach them things. Your time is finite, And maybe that's a better thing, because I find myself, well, look, the only

thing we can leave our kids's wisdom. That's it. And I find myself making any statements to them, whether we're in bed or in the car, within a movie theater, saying things that I think are gonna hit their ear and land right, and maybe twenty thirty years from now they'll remember it in much the same way my father used to say things to me that maybe at the time didn't mean much, but looking back, wow, it was like a volcano erupting. You go, Wow, what a me said? That

something's are boring, like teaching them about credit. Who the hell wants to talk about that? But it's the most important thing to know. And some of them are just funny, irreverend things that I think they ought to know. And then I include them on my rounds, whether it's getting gas or growing to the movies like we did. And you know, sometimes this show and this is one of those shows. It's not particularly a gossip show, you know. I know the title is fame is a Bitch. I don't

know. Sometimes life is a bitch. And I'm grateful to have this platform to talk about some of the things that are happening in my life as it unfalls in front of you on a daily basis. It's quite remarkable to have that. It really is. It's like being on tour with a band forever every day for four years and change, and I get to tell you what

I feel, what I'm going through. You guys have literally lived through the battle scars and and and and listen to all the nonsense, and some of you have your own opinions, some of you leave, some of you refuse to leave. And then whatever it is, what it is, it's a it's a moving opera. So let me give you some some life notes. Man. You know, it's a it's a transitional period. And I want to be able to tell you guys things on this show that maybe we have

in common. Um, I don't know. I listen. I grew up on comics like George Carlin and Jay Leno, and both of them really were dealing with the hypocrisies of life. Jay Lenos bit when I was a kid on the Mike Douglas Show, a MERV Griffin show, was what got him angry. And if you remember anything about the great George Carlin, well that's all he did was talk about the bullshit that we deal with in life. So keeping them in mind, let me tell you a couple of things that

happened the last day or two that just got my goat. And that's what MERV Griffin and Mike Douglas would say that Jay Leno, what's got you, man? Yeah, that's got me, man. You know, it's really gotta be man, that day it gets me man and jay Lenos bit was to go through the TV guide and talk about particular movies and stuff, and that was his bit. God bless him and got him where it got him.

I got to a gas station around the corner and I put my card in the pumping This more than enough money to get gas on that card, and it always says see the cash here. And I can't stand that because I always travel with my dog and that means getting around of the car, shutting off the ignition, blah bla blah blah, taking it down thirty twenty yards away, seeing the cash here. Why doesn't this card work? I

mean thirty bucks on pump eleven. And finally I just had it. I said to the girl, why the fuck are you telling me I can get gas outside? And every time I do, it says see the attendant, This is horseshit. And she was like, I don't want to hear it. You can leave, it said, and I'm fucking leaving. I'm not leaving thirty bucks on pump eleven. But what can I do? Honey, it's not your fault. What can I do? She says, Call the owner of the gas station. Can you imagine what's his name? Sam?

She is, Okay, I'm gonna call Sam. And I called Sam. Frankly, I thought it was insane that I'm sitting on a bed in a hotel calling a guy named Sam who owns a gas station, an Arco gas station. God knows how many Arcos he owns. Its shit gas. But when you're surround the corner from where you're staying, you gotta get it. If your car is blinking on empty, I said, Sam, I'm a patron of your gas stations. How can I help you, sir? I said, Well, first of all, you sound like a young, very

smart guy. I said, I don't know why every time I go to your gas station I can't use my card at your pump. Well, sir, we're going through a transitional period. I'd like to be able to help you, but over the phone I probably can and maybe the security code and you're back, said Sam. Sam stopped it stopped. Why does this happen? Why it's very inconvenient. I just assume not get Arco gas, But you happen to be the closest gas station to me. Well, what's Arco?

Will you talk? And so now I know the guy's got multiple gas stations, has money coming out of his asshole. But he was nice. He said, sir, you know on arcos don't accept credit cards. I said, well, it'd be nice if you said that out at the pumps. You know, you're right, we should have some different language on the pumps. I'm very sorry, and it was actually a nice constructive conversation. Again, has nothing to do with gossip, just has to do with life.

But I know we go through these little travails, each and every one of us, and I want to I want to broach them. Lady walks by me on the street. It's loud, this car is speeding by this traffic on the street called Hollywood Way. The lady's wearing a mask. She approaches me and she points to my dog and to me says, what sounded like you need to move that dog. I don't want to hear shit like that, so I quickly I got a little startled, and I said,

what are you talking about? And she said, oh, that's really a cute dog. I said, oh my god, I'm sorry. I thought I couldn't tell what you said because it's so allowed, and that mask you're wearing doesn't allow me to hear what you're saying. Un she's like a seventy five year old lady. I said, that's the problem with masks. I can't see your face. I don't know if you're mad or happy, or sad or blissful. She said, I know. It's a shame. So I said, Hunt, what's your name? My name is Beverly. Well,

that's a beautiful name. I know a few Beverly's. You look like a sweet person. Well, thank you. Are you a grandma? Yes, I have four grandchildren. Honey, why don't you take your mask off while you're walking the street alone? I mean, reybod are you doing? Hunt? They can think about what you're doing. Well, I just you know, I don't know. At my age, I'm at the point where bad things can happen. I see, you got plenty more living to do. You want to leave it behind with a piece of cloth on your face

like that? You don't want to do that, she said, no, it's not really comfortable. I said, whyn't you do yourself a favor and your husband. You're married, Yes, I'm married for forty nine years. I said, do your husband a favor, Honey, let him see that beautiful face. Of the woman he married. Take take your mask off. It's a beautiful spring day. It's goddamn gorgeous in this town. She said to me, I'll do it because that dog is so damn cute. I'll do it. I said, thank you, and she took her mask off

and kept walking. I love little moments like that. And if we all do things like that to strangers on the street or in an airport or wherever maybe someone wants, they're gonna get spit on or cursed out. But we need to do it now that the mandates are getting lifted here and there, despite what the goddamn Biden administration is saying and doing this fucking invalid asshole. Just do it, guys. Let people know what are you doing. It's

time to live life again. Hope springs eternal. Another thing that bothers me. I can't tell you the amount of drug prescription drug commercials I'm watching during the day. It's just it doesn't I can't even tell you how many commercials. Maybe some of you guys understand this. You're home during the day, the TV's on, you're kind of not listening, whether you're watching the S,

CNN or Fox, and I gotta be honest. I find myself listening to CNN more and more, not because I love their anchors, just because Fox has more of a personality driven network and CNN has more of a news driven network, and when they're talking about war and such, it doesn't seem as one sided as it used to be when they talked about Trump. So for me, CNN's on, And by the way, in a motel,

it's magically flips to CNN as default channel. So you wake up in the morning and it is on, and you start listening, and I think Frederico Whitfield, whatever the fuck her name is, it's cute, so you listen to her whatever whatever. But all these commercial I know this side effects, diarrhea, constant pation. I love how diarrhea and constipation or both issues with side effects. Either you're gonna shit or you're not gonna shit. Why even

put both of them on the label. If one person ship their brands out, the other person couldn't shit. How about you go, hey, let's not mention shitting at all on the side effects, because clearly we're divided on what this bill does. But no, they mentioned all of it. And it's a black family laying on a blanket as they walk through a field of wheat. I don't know where the fuck they are. Then an old white couple comes by, see the black family on the blanket and walks away and

goes toward the lake. I've been down the pike with all the commercials with black people. I'm tired of saying it. We all see it's it's beyond. It's beyond the percentage of black people in this country. It's way beyond that. Now. It's just, you know, I don't even know the percentage of black people in this way, but but the amount of commercials that

feature black people has to be sixty five to seventy percent. Everybody's going bending backwards to make sure black people are seen constantly, to the point where I see a commercial with Steph Curry, the NBA superstar for the Golden State Warriors. I'm a big fan of his basketball ability, So as my son and I'm watching this commercial where he begins to tell us how Subway has a new Italian hero that we've got to get because it contains the cold cut Gobba goal.

Now, of course he says capicola, which is horrifying for an Italian te here. I don't know many people on people of Italian heritage who love Gabba Gul. Yes, I say gabba, you can say capola, whatever the fuck, but it's not cappycla. But that's the way Steph Curry says

it on the commercial. It doesn't make any sense to me that a black kid is gonna tell Italians what they should enjoy it subway, and not only him, but after he's done speaking on camera for ten seconds, there's a voice over by some other black guy telling us how Cappiicola is its subway. Well what I don't want to fucking hear that. That's not gonna turn any Italians on. I just Steph Curry telling us about the new Italian hero that

contains cabbagoule. I hate seeing it that way, but that's the way. I just why don't you get Sebastian manisca alcohol, get somebody Italian, Get somebody Italian to talk about the new fucking Gobba Ghul hero at subway, You idiots, you don't get a black person. You know what? Would you hire me to talk about the new fried chicken sandwich and Popeyes? No, the new shrimp basket and Louisiana Chicken. No, they're getting so stupid.

They're trying to be so politically correct that it's absolutely incorrect. Fucking assholes. Watching this commercial for the fifteenth time this morning, I've had I can't take it anymore. They're discussing an ailment that men get called pironis disease. Have you heard about this? The ben penis thing? I remember talking about this ailment forty five years ago as a kid with my dad. What I go. My dad knew about men. Certain men have PIRONI. He said,

what is that, Dad? And he mentioned it was a ben penis and it was like, oh, okay, this happens. Whatever. Not everybody's penis points straight up in the air when they get a heart on. I get it. Mine doesn't. We're all different, but we all satisfy women in our own way. Some go to the side, some go down, whatever the fuck it is. It all works out in the end. But now we've got to have a big commercial and a drama for men suffering from

pironies. Nobody suffers from a bent penis. You figure it out. Sometimes the bend that's different is more more attractive to a girl. It works better for a girl, So calm down. What they oh, it's such a bad thing. It's not that bad. So I've known about this forever. Suddenly in the two thousand and twenties it's a big thing. We've got to talk about it. We have to have a drug. We have to have a drug for it. Never did I think we needed a commercial for people

to get help for it. I don't know what these commercials are all about. But if you've got pironies disease, then of course this commercial is for you, even though I'm sure you probably did something about it before this commercial even aired. But here's the thing that gets me, guys, the way they're describing a man's peronis disease. And I hate the word disease. It's an ailment, crooked cock whatever. Know they do the whole commercial they show

a bunch of bent carrots. Bent carrots. All you see in this commercial are a bunch of bent, ugly, unshaven carrots with knobs on them, and you know those little hairs that come off carrots. Everything they can do to make you think a man is disgusting. It's so wonderful to be a man, that the way you can describe it comes down to what the ugly, odd shaped vegetable that grows in the goddamn dirt that you pull out with

your fingers. If this or a disease about a woman's vagina or productive reproductive system, would it be okay if we showed a rotten avocado or a fucking rotted peach. I mean literally, this commercial is a constant showing of carrots throughout the whole commercial. It should be a commercial for carrots. We can't talk about a woman's drive vagina. Let's say and show a big dustball that comes out from beneath your couch. Can't do that, Oh my god.

Another commercial comes up about whatever the fuck some allergies in the fields, a woman petting horses, a black family of course, petting horses, riding horses in the field. And there's all side effects, diary, all that kind of shit. You can't breathe, you can't ship to sleep, apnea, Oh my god. But getting back to Pironi's disease, the lass thing on the commercial, as if the abundance of carrots being shown isn't enough of an

insult. Do you know where you're supposed to go to learn more about Pironi's disease. If you're a man, we'll simply go to bentcarrot dot com. If you want more information about your penis, that's bent. Don't go to a website that you know more or less caters to your insecurities regarding your bent mail productive organ which is a penis, which is fun to say. No,

let's go to bent'scarret dot com. Ladies, you would never go to a website called rotten avocado dot com to take care of your drive vagina, would you? Bentcarret dot com has nothing to do with a man's penis. It's not anything that's biologically true, Bent Carrot. So tell me more about how many men are toxic. We're not. We're not. We're the victims of toxic masculinity. We're the victims of people putting this shit on us.

And if there are any men in the room who made this goddamn commercial, you better believe they're either gay or they fucking hate men or their women. Either way, bentcarrot dot com, my christ. Anyhow, speaking of which, well, when it comes to love and all the other things that come with it, I spoke to a tippy top lawyer source of mind regarding the Johnny Depp Amber Heard case, and I'm going to talk about this for days

on end. You know, I have to. Britney Spears was the big case for for many months, and I was on top of that, and I'm on top of this. So if you liked what I said about Britney Spears, you need to because I was on top and I was way ahead of the whole fucking world when it came to breaking exclusive content. I'll do the same with Johnny and Amber. So this lawyer's source of mine told me, you're right, Age. There is absolutely two perpetrators in here, but

Amber Heard is the primary instigator. This is a tippy top lawyer, not only case, but tippy top. He has some understanding of domestic violence issues. He specialized in family law and domestic violence cases in Hong Kong. He even heard a thesis on this subject. He said, Amber Heard's position in this case is a classic approach, and that domestic violence is always physical and perpetrated by men. However, and I said this yesterday, domestic violence is

more often than not emotional, psychological and uses fear of threat. Remember that fear of threat and what he's seeing so far is a highly manipulative woman who sought to provoke her husband to violence. This is a tippy top lawyer talking. She can't hide a true character on the stand. The way she is impersonating Johnny Depp's voice tells me she is a calculated, manipulative and vile person.

She is conceited and is convinced that she will prevail. I don't think she will, nor do I. He said, there's nothing authentic about her. The revelation about the makeup palette tells me not only is she a liar, but she is pathological and a habitual liar. And by the way, let me just put a pin on that for a second, guy. People who are victims of domestic violence are typically stare of the person committing the alleged domestic violence. If you listen to Amberherd's talk on the tapes, she is

goating him. She's goating Johnny Depp, making fun of him, poking the bear. That's not what somebody does if they suffer from domestic violence. Use your heads, guys. There's a pattern to her behavior, and it details like the lie about the makeup palette, which will tear her case apart. In my opinion. It's the kind of fact you don't get wrong. If what happened to you was traumatic exactly, covering bruises from domestic violence as an

ordeal in itself, she would remember how she concealed them. He's exactly right, and I said as much on Yesterday's Free Show. As Spectacle, Johnny Depp is mesmerizing, and he is. His court appearance is unconventional. He goes off on tangents what you're uncalled for, but he sucks you in. Yeah, because he's a fucking movie star man. He comes across as authentic and I can see why people love him. Masculine yet vulnerable, damaged, but a huge success. On the other hand, Amber heard looks like she

stepped out of the Crucible. Her appearance is undeniably contrived to make her look puritan. You nailed it in the show when you said she looks like she came out of a Handmaid's tale, and I one hundred percent agree that she's on zannex. At first, I couldn't put my finger on what else was going on with her because she appears frozen and not all there. But the zannex makes sense. It's keeping a lid on her fiery temper. Sometimes when

Johnny Depp is talking, she looked like she wants to explode. Yes, she does. It brought to mind a poem. It brought to mind a poem that I loved by T. S. Eliott. The dove descending breaks the air with flame of incandescent terror, of which the tongues declare the one discharged from sin and error. The only hope or else despair lies in the choice of pire or pire, to be redeemed from fire by who then devised the torment. Love. Love is the unfamiliar name behind the hands that wove

the intolerable shirt of flame, which human power cannot remove. We only live only suspire, consumed by either fire or fire. Goddamn right, Johnny Depp is mesmerizing. The whole case is the kind of thing. I can't turn my face away from him. This morning, I wake up and decide I want to see Elvis Presley videos. I don't know why. I don't know why. My girlfriend's son is named Presley, and I just said, well,

that's so cool. I very rarely go on YouTube and look at Elvis Presley videos, but when I do, I get sucked in because he was such an amazing talent. You think Johnny Depp is mesmerizing. He is because he comes from the Elvis tree. There are men who come down from the trees of the men before us. We live done the branches and we come down the trunks because those are the men we aspired to be. That sounds insane and stupid. I apologize, but I know what I'm talking about.

So I got into this Elvis Presley rabbit hole and it isn't set enough. I'm watching him doing hound dog Man and he's on the Ed Sullivan Show and he walks out on stage. The crowd is going bananas, and he says, I'm going to sing a sad song, folks, and the girls are swooning and crying and screaming, and he's trying to make believe there's going to be a sad song coming up. Then he raises his head above the guitar and they know it's coming, and he hits that goddamn guitars and you ain't

another moved, and the crowd goes bananes. And his absolute command of his band, his stage presence before people really knew what that was, every artist since then owes that to Elvis and I'm gonna say something in a very well in a weird way. I'm not saying every moment of Johnny Depp's appearance and tactics in court are approved, but there is a way he's acting that I think men from here on in will adopt his style, especially with respect to

them being the victim of a woman harming them. And just as every artist owes that to Elvis, I think every person's from now on in is going to owe that to Johnny Depp if they unfortunately get to have to go to court. Elvis was lightning in a bottle and that's a once in a generation and king. And say what you want about Johnny Depp, but his talents are once in a generation. I'm a heaterosexual man. You guys know all

about my love of women. But the cool humbleness about Elvis Presley, the mountain of confidence that only grew bigger with each cheer and clapped and the screaming of his name, My god, I've got a fever for that guy, and it's not going down. Me and Mickey Rourke and Tupac Shakur used to talk about how we obsessed with Elvis Presley. That was a big kind of

topic of conversation. I'll get more into it on the Patreon show. But we drove to Brooklyn one night to see a gangster that Mickey wanted to pay his respects to. I knew the guy and he was going to jail and prison and and Mickey wanted to pay his respects. And I said, let's take a ride. And we got in the car and me, Mickey Tupac and Johnny Enos and Mickey's driver, Kevin took us in the black Town car

and his driver played Elvis the whole way. I think I heard the song Suspicious Minds one hundred times that night, and I remember the only time it stopped was when we went through the Brooklyn Battery tunnel. That's when Mickey had the music lowered and he had to breathe into a paper bag because he was scared of being in the dark and in the tunnel at the same time and underwater. He couldn't understand that. He was like, I don't trust how

they can build these things. And two Bucks said, do you think bridges

are any safe? For motherfucker? It's just a great memory. I have greatest memory also when it comes to Elvis used to be when me and my brother in law Frankie and his gorgeous brothers Philly, Nicki and Paulie would stand up and sing this song The Wonder of You to our mothers at weddings, at birthday parties, whatever the hell we were celebrating back then, surprise parties, it was always something back in the eighties and early nineties we had to

celebrate, and we would stand up there and hold each other and sing this song at the top of our lungs and just to see our mom's happy. The Wonder of You makes me cry, it really does. It's released by a guy named Ray Peterson way back in nineteen fifteen nine. Is it possible this song is over sixty years old? It is. It became a top ten forty hit, didn't really peak that high, maybe number twenty five. What have You? And the Wonder Review is about one of thirty five songs

that Elvis would regularly perform a concert. You could see him on YouTube sing it constantly, and Ray Peterson tells the story where Elvis asked him if he could record The Wonder Review and he said, you don't have to ask permission. You're Elvis. Presley and Elvis said, yes, I do. You're

Ray Peterson. And the song is so wonderful. It's actually been adopted by the English Association Football club port Vale, which runs out to the song at the start of their home matches, while the club fans sing it throughout their matches. I mean, listen to that song, and Mickey Rock would tear up. He told me. I've played this song for people overseas who don't understand English and they cried because of the sound of Elvis's voice. It just

slays them. And Tupac said he wished he could command an audience like Elvis did. That's a king. Imagine those guys envying a man who enters a room. If you've ever seen Mickey, a young Mickey or Tupuck walk into a room, you'll know what it means to command attention. But even they knew. Nobody did it like the king. And then suddenly I'm in the Elvis rabbit hole and I find myself and a Hank Williams rabbit hole because their

songs here he signed to Hanks songs, et cetera, et cetera. You just start going down these holes and I'm listening into the likes of Johnny Cash recite this heartbreaking song men with broken Hearts that many of you know that Hank Williams sang, and I mean the words are insane. If you don't mind, I'd like to tell you the words of this song. You'll meet.

It's not even a song that sung, it's recited. You'll meet many men just like me upon life's busy street, with shoulders stooped and heads bowed low, and eyes that stare in defeat, or souls that live within the past, where sorrow plays all parts for a living. Death is all that's left for men with broken hearts. And I say this, I recite this song because of what Johnny Depp is going through. You may not feel sorry for him, whatever the hell you feel, but I feel it's necessary, and

I'll continue. You have no right to be the judge to criticize and condemn. Just think, but for the grace of God, it would be you instead of them. One careless step or thoughtless deed, and then the misery starts. And to those who weep, death comes cheap. These men with broken hearts, Oh so humble you should be when they come passing by. For it's written that the greatest men never get too big to cry. Some lose faith in love and life when sorrow shoots her darts, and with hope

all gone, they walk alone. These men with broken hearts. You've never walked in that man's shoes, saw things through whose eyes, or stood and washed with helpless hands when the heart and side you dies. Some were paupers, some were kings, and some were masters of the arts. But in their shame they're all the same, these men with broken hearts. Life sometimes can be so cruel that a heart will pray for death. God, When must these living dead no pain with every breath? So I help your brother

along the road, no matter where he starts. For the God had made you've made them too. He's men with broken hearts. Unbelievable. Right, Sometimes these rabbit holes do me a lot of good. And that brings me to the last story today, which I find not funny, but kind of expected it. I've been talking about it for years. I've been right about it. Now here it comes to proof. How long have I told you that Shawn Mendez is not straight and his relationship with Camilla Kabail was funny?

A long time? Many of you said, Aj it's going on too long, quit it no and now Shawn Mendez says this. He admitted in the candid letter shared on Twitter last week that he has a tough time being honest with his fans at times. He said, sometimes I ask myself what is it that I should be doing with my life? And what I always hear in return is to tell the truth, to be the truth. I feel

like that's a hard thing to do, though. Okay, I'm afraid that if people know and see the truth, they might think less of me, they might become bored or of me. So in these moments of feeling low, I either put on a show or I hide, and he shared that he constantly feels like he's either flying or drowning, and it makes him wonder

whether other twenty somethings experienced the same emotional highs and lows. He said, the truth is, I really do want to show up in the world as my one true, honest, unique self and not care what anyone thinks. Sometimes I do. Sometimes I really don't care what people think, and I feel free most most of the time. It's a struggle, though, and he acknowledged that even with so much success in his professional life. He still finds it hard to feel like he's not failing. He's hyper focused on what

he doesn't have, forgetting to see all that he can do. The truth is, he said, I'm overwhelmed and overstimulated, and then he concluded his note by assuring the stands that he's okay. He's not, but he wanted to share his thoughts in case they resonate with some people. Quote quote. This message comes five months after his breakup with Camilla Cabello, who quote unquote he dated for over two years. He said, I'm on my own now,

and I hate that. That's my reality. I understand that reality and my own two Sean, I got a girlfriend, she's the best, but more or less most of the time, I'm on my own. It's a weird thing. I can appreciate anyone, any man who makes that claim. But you need to be completely honest and true as you come forward. Seawan mendays, no matter what the slings and arrows do, because sticks and stones

and all that shit don't matter to real men. And we're ready to meet you no matter what you are and greet you no matter what you are, because you see the bullshit narrative about toxic masculinity that doesn't exist. Real men understand broken hearts. So keep walking toward the truth, son, and you'll be met with you mility love. I'm AJ Benson. That was your shell
