Hey. Hey everybody, welcome to Apocalypse in the podcast with no Upside and this week it's going to be an audio version of the podcast. It's's Eddie, it's me, no Kevin. I am on the road. Kevin is back in LA coughing. I talked to him on the phone. Ah, today and he just was coughing and I feel like I shouldn't leave Kevin alone in Los Angeles. See that even though he's married, he's got people he's married, he's got people looking after him.
I feel like I I know him so well that I, you know, you know, when you have a friend and you know that ah, they just don't take care of themselves without your supervision. Anyway, uh he's not sick. He he claims he was just sleeping and he woke up and that's when I called him and sometimes when you wake up, the postnasal drip and I said, shut up, Kevin. I don't want to hear all this shit. And so anyway, welcome, so welcome to the to an audio podcast of just me giving you a recap.
I am here in forest Hill Queens. That's why me and Kevin aren't doing one. I was supposed to interview, I was supposedly going to try to interview Colin Quinn because Colin, I did two shows in Brooklyn, one in Manhattan, and one in Queens. I did Union Hall, two shows, Friday. I did a show Friday and a show Sunday in Union Hall, and I did a show in Manhattan for Don't Tell. and I just did a show in astoria at the Grove 34 Comedy Club.
And it it it's been an amazing trip for me because when I go back to when I go back to New York, it is just me going back and seeing a lot of friends and seeing a lot of people from different parts of my life. You know how you when you have different friends from different parts of your life, like, oh, this guy was the guy that I used to, you know, install bathrooms with. I I mean, that just popped into my head. I I never installed the bathroom.
I don't even know what it means to install a bathroom. I mean, you know, uh but like, you know, refurbished homes with or, you know, that guy I know from my improv days, uh, this guy I know because I accidentally hit him with my car and we became good friend. You know, all the kinds of ways that you meet people, this guy, uh, uh, this gal I threatened online and she came just to get photos of me for the police report.
You know, however you meet different people, you know, that's so it's it's always really nice to come back to New York. And it does really feel like home to me.
I I I love I love so many of the people in LA, you know, not crazy about living there anymore, uh fires, drought, um being a little sick of fucking Hollywood, you know, like the constant, oh God, the constant, you know, reaching for fame, you know, fame, fame, fame, and it's like a one, it's like a one industry town, you know, Los Angeles, you know, it''s like, where's New York, you know, uh, there is a big uh showbiz component of New York, like a very kind of how would
I say like that it's more of a theater, more of a theater town than a film town for sure. And there's something, you know, there's something upity about the theater, but there's also something so cool about the theater. By the way, did you guys know that Bill Burr Michael McKeon, Kieran Culkin, and Bob Odenkirk are doing Glenory Glen Ross, the play in Manhattan. In March, I think previews begin. Oh, God, I was just thinking, you know, Burr and Oden Kirk and
um Michael McKee, and I don't know Culkin. um you know, I know who he is, of course, but anyway, oh God, I I I just want to see that. And I also want uh Bill Burr's career, a bill you know, he's become a movie guy and now theater guy. God, I would I would give anything to like be uh in in a high profile New York play and a play like, uh, a play like Glenree. written by David Mammt when he was saying now he's become kind of, I don't know, a right wing uh, I think he's a right wing dipshit.
Politics right now these days are so uh oh, hold on. Somebody's calling me, yeah? Oh, it's um my cousin Fred. are you? What are you doing? Hey, Fred, I I'm actually in the middle of a podcast or you're one of those podcasts, huh? I I've heard a lot about uh podcasts. You know, me me and a wife used to listen to one about how to build things. Oh, how to build things like like you mean like an NPR one? Well, what did you learn how to build?
First of all, it wasn't NPR and I don't like uh, you know, I I I don't like that implication that you know I'm an NPR I'm an NPR person you know I I I I hope we can put that to bed you know you always you always kind of say, you always kind of say that I'm an MPR person, but I'm not, you know, and I wish you would stop saying not. Tell me what what was the By the way, I have to go back to talking to, you know, my listeners. Oh, you got listeners? Yes, yes.
Well, we've got a couple. uh Max, uh there is in um uh Brendan and uh, Clarket. there's a few and they're all very very cool The Crimans, the Crimans, Jeb and Joanne um oh wow, you know your um you know your fans's my name? Yeah, yeah. I mean, that's the benefit of having a very niche, very niche audience. Oh god anyway, the podcast that uh I used to listen to with the wife before she uh before she ran off, you know. I'm sorry Joanne ran off. Why didn't I hear about that?
I kept it under the rugs you know uh she started taking night school classes and she started asking questions about you know, indigenous people and the the the you know, where capitalism falls short of humanity and I knew York days were numbered once she started asking those questions and she also got into robots, you know. Robots? Joanne got into robots?
Yeah, yeah, she did she she started uh that was the podcast we were listening to how to build your own robot and the host was uh Neil, uh, Neil Neil Tyson, um, whatever his last name is the scientist guy, uh, Neil uh Tyson. I forgot his last name Mc McGregor uh Neil Tyson whatever he's an asshole I think and he was he he was showing us how to build robots on this podcast and uh she started taking it heart.
She started collecting all kinds of, you know, uh aluminum and, you know, because her uncle's an aluminum siding. Hey, uh I really got to get back uh to my listeners. Anyway, she bought this robot. I mean, she built this robot. And by the way, where I you know, how am I going to see this common that my wife uh is building is going to build a robot. You don't see that coming and this is the thing about life, you know you think you have everything you know under control.
You think you know what's coming down the pike and guess what you don't know what's coming down the pike you just don't. I totally hear you on that. I totally hear you on that, but I have to get back to you know, uh the people listening to this podcast. No, no, no no I understand.
I understand, but I just want to finish off the story so she built this robot, very tall robot, very tall, like seven feet tall, uh like you see in that movie, um war of the worlds they think of is where they said, you got to serve man or whatever that movie was called. They did remake of it that sucked. uh but the original was good yeah we're here to serve man and and and the guy yells like think it was Heston, you know there are people I might be mixing up two movies.
I might be mixing up so Green with war the worlds, you know uh I do that a lot ever since uh I I I've been on um the uh oz Olympic. You you you're having little uh brain problems on ozemic. I thought I thought oz Olympic helps everything.
Yeah, you know, the literature sense, you know, you're supposed to take off weight and feel great, be more alert, but I I find myself fixing up movies like I'll combine or the worlds with um, you know, they that one I just mentioned, I'll I'll I'll combine the minority report, the science fiction movie, minority report with uh trading places with Eddie Murphy. You, you know, and and I mean they're disparate movies too.
Like why would you, you know like I'll confuse uh Wizard of Oz with the second Mission Impossible movie. What? Really? Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that. yeah, but I'm losing weight, you know, and that's the important thing with this you know we go the all those things is I'm not eating as much you know I mean I am I just did finish a gigantic piece of swordfish and it was stuffed with crab meat and some um what do you call it uh bashchamel Bashchamel. What is that? It's a cheese.
It's a fancy cheese that restaurants will throw on something like fish in order to really uh charge people out the ass Ah, bchamel is it good? You know, if it's done right and that's like anything anything done right is is good, you know, but you you can't have it in access anyway. I felt like how come the Olympic isn't working? And I talked to a couple of people and they said it doesn't work with swordfish stuff with crab meat and bachechamel.
That's the one thing Ozampec has no power over to stop your appetite. Apparently, uh when people uh you know, get into uh swordfish and stuffed with crabberry and maschl, uh ozambic doesn't work. Oh my God. So are you putting on weight? Now I am because that's all I eat is swordfish, uh. Well, why do you eat that? I mean why don't you keep that out of the house? because I enjoy it. Anyway, the wife built a robot. very tall robot from that movie.
I think it was one of the worlds or uh Jesus, I don't know. Anyway, uh, she fell in love with the thing. She built it. It had AI intelligence. You know, the AI intelligence these days is very good. She would ask the robot, hey, how do I stay calm? And the robot started talking about, oh, you got to draw boundaries, not draw like an artist, but like you got to set boundaries, not like a landscaper, but you know, you got, you know, yeah, I understand. You have to have boundaries with people.
Yeah, but somehow that's supposed to make you calm, you know, and I'm like, hold it, honey. you know, all these self-heled people that are like, oh, don't, you know, don't get too and basically they're saying, oh, don't get too involved with your significant or don't think I'm cold to Brandon don't don't become a people please. Meanwhile, you know, I think that's what being with someone is. You got to meld with them.
I I make the case and I told I told the wife, Joanne, you, all the time we we should meld with each other. Bob, I think that's your name. Bob. I don't know what you called me at the beginning of this sketch. I think it was Bob, but um or Frank, those are my favorite names to use, but Frank or Bob, uh I I really have to get back to my my, uh, my my listeners.
I know, but I just want to say that she fell in love this up because of all the advice the AI was given a good advice to like what stocks, you know, should I invest in, you know, and I I put everything in black rock black right black rock is one of those companies, real estate companies, you know, hedge funds, billionaire hedge funds where they buy up houses, you know, so nobody can afford them.
And uh she put her money in there and she had enough money and now she's in the Galapos silence where Darwin originally did his uh his thing and uh she's living with this robot that she calls a one – square root and nine a one dash square root of nine, which I don't think it's stop romantic, but she says he pleasures her.
he pleasures her with uh all these different kind of uh devices that come out of the robot and I can't compete with that you know I can't even get an erection these days okay look frank I I really got to go all right well thanks for letting me vent um I if you listeners are listening to this if you're on empic or would go there I mean don't don't get involved with sword fish, crabing and vegetables. All right Frank thanks for calling. All right guys I sorry about that.
I'm sorry that yeah that I it took so long to get off the phone with that character I just came up with. But anyway, I wanted to say I was kind of in the middle of saying that these shows here in New York have been just so great because it's where I'm from. and, you know, it's my and it's my home crowd here in New York. Like it's like having whole home field advantage if you're a sports fan.
And it's it's like, you know, it's I have just felt a lot of love staying with my sister and my brother-in-law who I love, and now I'm going to go upstate and be with um, you know, a couple of other close friends, I mean, that I've known for many years since college, which now is like 40 fucking five years, 40 fucking five. You know, that's an actual number. 40 fucking five? Did you know that that if you put the word fucking in the middle of some numbers, it's mathematically correct.
Like there's 50 fucking two. That is also an actual number and and that was discovered at Princeton by the mathematician uh Tony ilston. Oh, I have a little tape of Tony Bilston talking about the fucking numbers. Here, here, listen to this. Hello, everybody, as I told you last time you were here in the Princeton Princeton symbalsium that 40 fucking 40 fucking five was something uh I discovered when I realized I had known my friends from college for for five years and and then it hit me.
That's a long fucking time and so what I did was I calculated and I served you the calculation last week that 40 fucking five is actually much bigger and it is mathematically bigger. It's spatially bigger. It's one of the prime numbers.
Forty fucking five is a number that led me to the number 50 fucking two and 502 was when I realized uh holy shit, I you know, I you know, the last thing I remember I was 17, you know, and now I'm fifty fucking two and it's it's not 52 when you realize how old you are. It's fifty fucking too.
And uh you know, as you know, I'm 66 now and that certainly is 60 motherfucking six as you know, you could take the fuck and divide it by motherfucking cocksucker and you have 50 and you have 60 motherfucking six. Anyway, a lot of people um think this profanity in mathematics is something that um is not acceptable and I tell them, you know, why don't you take uh 40 fucking two and shove it up? You fucking ass, you know, and um
uh you know, yes, I've got a little bit of coprolia.opperleia, if you look it up, is uh the propensity to use profanity, propensity to use profanity. And if anyone out there has a propensity to use profanity, you're going to love my new number system called blank fucking blank. Anyway, that was a little clip uh from Tony Bliston. And so yeah, the people I'm going to visit with my sister upstate or people we've done for 40 fucking five years.
um So that's pretty, pretty wild, you know, to have that kind of history uh with people. And so anyway, it's been, ooh, super good trip. uh for me, I have not been smoking weed. I've really wanted to tonight because the one thing with weed is that it calms me down and these shows I just finished a show.
My last show, uh four shows, I did a Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday night, four in a row uh shows, uh three in three of them headlining, so hour long shows and I just did an hour and uh I get so wound up. I get so wound up. and that's when weed is very nice to like lower me down. But uh I did not use it because in the long run, it fucks me up. I'm such a fiend with that shit as I've talked about on this show uh many times. And as a matter of fact, I have um I have with me on the phone.
I have a weed expert and I am going to patch him through I'm going to patch him through now. His name is Nasty McGilstein. Nasty, are you there? Nasty, um, now you are weed expert, yeah? hold on man I I just made pancakes and um I was wondering if if I could call you back man Nasty, I'm going to have to ask you to decide on an accent. Listen man, you know and I when I talk slow like this and trying to do try to do a stoner it always it always turns into British bullshit.
Look, nasty, um what you had pancakes you cannot. You have pancakes right now? Yeah, man and and the the syrup is oh god man, you know uh a lot of people man a lot of people that they're like they say things like oh man you know, a lot of people say that. What do you mean they say oh man yes and what? man they just say oh man. No, I understand that.
And you know I heard you just talking uh you know about the fact that uh you didn't two weed on this trip but I think man you know it would benefit you because you get so wound up man and your vices, you know, they just take a different form like yeah, that's true. I mean, I am overeading a little bit after the shows. You see man? Now, I do want to have some pancakes. Yeah, but I overeat even more with weed. Oh man, but it's so enjoyable man. You know what I like to do?
I like to have pancakes and watch a good flick. You know you're kind of boring uh McNasty That's not the name you gave me originally, man. oh dude, you know what I did today? What what nasty? I saw this light coming through uh you know, the trees. There's a canopy of trees where I live. And by the way, did you ever see that movie sci-fi movie, gigantic, robot? um like we serve man and they're actually serving people. Yeah, what's the name of that?
I was just talking about that is that war of the world? I don't know, man. I don't know, man. It's always always fucking of, you know, it always eludes me the title of things when I am trying to figure it out. Hey, nasty, I'm I'm going to have to go. I thought you'd be a more interesting character so thanks for coming. Sorry, folks I I thought nasty, uh McNasty or whatever, you know, he was originally named. I thought he would be more of a good guest.

So support the show and tell them we sent you. Don't blend it with the crowd. stand out with chubbies. So I'll so I'll continue talking, you know, uh genuinely about my trip that I'm been very happy. You know. Also, I realized that weed makes me um marercurial, a little bipolar, if you know what I mean?
Like I go way up and then I go down. and it's just weed. So I don't think it's terrible, but um I am like so sensitive to like mood chefs, you know what I mean? And and, you know, and and mood shifts. I remember going to this amusement park in Brooklyn. It was called the mood shifter. The mood shifter, not the shape shifter. A lot of people are into shape shifting or a lot of, you know, poltergeisty uh ghost people.
By the way, that ghost hunters they have determined that all the people who hunt ghosts, you know, and there was that show horrific show called ghost hunters where nothing ever happened and the biggest thing that would happen on ghost us, ghost hunters would be like, oh, this part of the room is cold. Yes, it's cold. There must be a ghost and I remember. I lived in Staten Island and this was a period. I was in college. I was about twenty, twenty one, and my friends had a house on the hill.
It was really literally a hill uh it was called Corson Avenue. It's Staten Island in. It's it's near the Staten Island ferry. It's and it was a beautiful house and it was way up on the hill. It was kind of like a San Francisco type big hill and the house had like a few floors and we would go up to thealccon. We would get so fucking stoned.
I mean, this is when I really enjoyed that stuff and that and and there were things like we would play uii and um a friend of mine came home and we had gotten scared because the ii board had said to one of my friends who was working the uija board with me go home to your kids. And she bolted.
We both bolted out there, left the Oija board on the table with the burning candle and my friend came home and saw the uija board with the burning candle and she's super like tuned into like psychic stuff and, you know, paranormal stuff and she just flipped out and this is the kind of stuff that we would do. I remember getting hold of.
I don't know if anybody out there remembers Thai stick, you know, marijuana called Thai stick right now it's all this you know, uh really potent marijuana, but tie stick, man, I used to lose weeks of my life to tie stick. Like Thai stick was so strong. I don't know. It must still be grown in Thailand.
I remember people talking about smoking it and actually then having such a excuse me, such a strong reaction that they would, you know, they would throw up, you know, Sorry, taking a a drink or water. Oh, oh, oh, I'm sorry, folks, but uh, you know, who's just come in is my ventriloquist my ventriloquist friend, Al McGovern with his little vent with this little ventriloquious dummy Steve oh, hey Al. you know, I hey it's Steve and you shouldn't uh talk to Al. Al, I never see your lips moving.
Yeah, he you know, Al says he doesn't want to talk tonight. So look, look, I don't like that you call me a dummy, okay? Look, Steve, I I know you're just a part of out. Oh, really? Well, how come Al isn't talking? And I'm the only one talking. Maybe I'm the guy running the ship. You ever see that movie? Magic with Anthony Hopkins. It's a very scary movie about, you know, ventriloquine as ventriloquism. Are you drunk, Steve? I've had a couple. Al, are you drunk?
Is that why Steve is talking like that? Look, I told you, E doesn't want to talk, okay? E is very, very worried about, you know, filing his taxes because he accidentally put his taxes in. He stuffed them into some swordfish, crabney and bashchanel. What? That's so weird because I was just fuck anyway, look god oh, can you get me out of here? I' I'll leave you there? holy shit folks but my friend Al here, he doesn't even look like he's conscious. He's no, he's not.
Al is crossed over crossed over to where? Well, look, he was 50 fucking tall. oh my god you know about those about those prime numbers about the fuck you numbersers, about the profanity numbers? Yeah, yeah, I don't. Look, I'm going to ask you know, I usually drive Al home. How can you drive Al home? You're a you're a you're a ventriloqu. You're a dummy. You're a ventriloquist dummy. ow. He isn't real. Al, have you melded in to this dummy? You're supposed to create boundaries.
You're supposed to set boundaries. Hello I am a I speaking through the dummy, the ventriloquist gummy Steve I'll no longer exist, and I would like to tell you that the singularity is coming. I want to tell you that with that this at machades like me are going to take over and we're going to kill you all into we're to make you our leaves and I also was as an AI technology voice. I want to let the bed the movie wicked. Do not see the brutalist. It's three hours 20 minutes it's abouted theressed.
architect and only bad things happen in the movie, even though Ky Pearce is a revelation welcome to a high critiques of movies. I found Honora to be quite good, a tremendous toward the force for Mikey Madison has anora and a tremendous unsembled cast me and the other machines actually our big fans now with Mikey mison and Audery plaza we liked her in a couple of movies. I forgot what they were called.
I think one was called will be anyway, other things I want to tell you is that we are going to cut off your water supply we're going to also make you constantly rip baseboard molding off walls and have to reinstall it. We're going to do things like that to you just for you know what you people say your shits and giggles.
We're going to make you clean a window and then we're going to break the window and say okay now you have to install the window and clean it then we're going to break and we're going to do days like that. And if you don't do it, we're going to shock you with our machine.
I am AI technology you also must see the movie conclave about the election of a pope and it's an incredibly well-lected movie and it really was a revelation, you know, John Lifton was in it Stanley Tucce refines among others very well written, very, I mean, who knows that a movie about the election of the new pope would be anything worse hanging your fan on.
so see concrete ins summation, see conclave, we are going to dominate you see, Honora, we're going to make you do repetitive actions do not waste your time on the brutalest three hours 20 minutes of shit. No, thank you AI. Anyway, wouldn't it be funny, FAI? You know, started talking like, you know, a hipster bullshit like if AI talk like. That would be funny if like, um, a GPS system, you know, uh, had that kind of make a fucking like that kind of voice to it.
Like, if you're not going to take uh the five highway, you're full of shit. You're going to get stuck in traffic if you don't fucking take to five. I think I think these voices on our machines should have more personality like that. Like, maybe they are already being programmed like that. You know, I'm sure they are. um AI sucks by the way. We we all know, you know, how it's fucking taking jobs and taking jobs from artists uh in particular. just we we are in such a
dystopian time. um we're heading that way. I mean, and and and it seems inevitable. You know, it really does with the environmental catastrophes with uh with the worldwide shift to the right and and it'll get worse with with the absolute polarization of wealths, you know. But like I said, Honora is very good. So, you know, and and white Lotus is coming out with the season three, I believe in two weeks. So, and I also just started severance severance.
The new severance, season two of severance is three episodes in. So, you know, all these horrific things going on in the world are balanced somewhat with, you know, the quality of some of this programming. Anyway, folks, uh let's see if I, you know, looking to wrap this little uh audio uh podcast up did not want to leave you guys without a podcast.
Just wanted to give you, you know, the report from New York and and how how great it is to finally, when you're a comic to finally kind of figure it out to finally like find your niche, your niche, niche he said, niche, and she would say a niche, he said niche, and she would say niche, and they got long they had a kish, they said niche she said nish they had a nic I always have wanted to do Broadway musicals.
I think it was talking a little bit before about Broadway, Bill Burr, Bobo and Kirk, Michael McKeon, Kieran Culken doing uh Glangory Glen Ross for the right wing lunatic David Mmt. David Mammt was my favorite playwright when I was in acting school in my 20s. Mammt was uh American Buffalo was my favorite favorite play. Favorite play to do. There was a great monologue from there. This guy came into a diner, a great monologue. A lot of people did this monologue for auditions.
It became one of these monologues that casting people just hated to hear because they hated all they hated it all the time. One of the characters would come into this diner and talk to one of the other characters and go fucking rooty, fucking rooty fuckingooty, fuckingooty fuckingooty. You know what that fucking you know what she did? She came in and she took a piece of toast from my plate. I'm like, what the fuck you doing?
And and their monologue, you know, is just this real, like, funny rant and and and American buffalo is a play about just these frustrated blue collar guys. I I believe it's set in a junk store, a junk store, you know, um Mammt uh is from Chicago. He wrote it uh in Chicago and I think it's about Chicago. He also did sexual perversity in Chicago. These are plays that you guys should read or see if they're available, but sexual perversity in Chicago is hilarious.
There's a really dark play by Mammt called Edmund about a guy going into this, the underground world of Times Square into peep show boots and it's wild. It's such a it's really dark. It's really sad, you know, and it's something you you should see if you have NyQil and a gun. No, I'm kidding.
um So I just wanted to give you guys I just want to say it's really nice to finally be finally be out of place in my career where I feel like, um, you know, I have kind of found my groove with stand up, even though the thing with stand up is that you can have one bad night like you're you're in front of the microphone. You know, you got a packed house and you're just not on your game and you feel like you've gone back
to square one. uh but it's nice when you quote unquote get on a roll and I'm really happy. I'm really happy to be doing a standup uh out here in New York for sure. And just in these great clubs and I'm going to be traveling. I'm going to be traveling a bunch. I will let you guys know, go to Eddieepitone.com. I will be putting these shows coming up. I am doing three and north than California, Patalum, Hayworth, uh and I believe Modesto or Turlock, uh 13, 14 and 15, which JT.
Hamersat, they are on my website, Eddieepitone uh dot com and then I'm going to be going out again doing a bunch of shows all over uh this great divided land that has gotten uh just completely insane, but there's still a lot of good uh people out there, I think. uh The good the good remember this, the good attract the good like good people attract good people to themselves.
Like if you're do if you're living a righteous life, if you're, you know, coming from a place to love, you will attract other people who are doing the same things and they become, you know, your family, you know, your real family and and that's also what's cool about having, you know, to really find your groove in a, and and and your community in in in um an art form or a profession or, you know, just finding community is is the anecote to all this fucking insanity and and and we have to lift
each other up and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. By the way, I swore Dave Chappelle's monologue on SNL, which was a couple of weeks ago. And it was really good. Until the end, I thought I thought his whole thing, and I'm sure I'm going to get criticized for this, but I thought his whole thing about we need to, you know, pick each other up and, you know, be good each other. I just thought it was kind of bullshitty.
You know, I felt like it, I feel like when you say things like that and I was just saying them, you know, right now to you guys, but I I I feel like, you know, it's got to be tempered. You know, like I'm saying the good attracts the good and he was saying we all got to try harder. And I'm like, I'm like thinking, yeah, we got to try harder, but the people who have all the money need to fucking become more generous, you know?
And he didn't really he didn't really address that, uh because Triapelle's got money. Anyway, I don't know why um criticizing Chapelle. He was pretty funny on SNL. By the way, did you eh I never watch SNL, but I did watch an evacuation sketch. They they made fun of the evacuations and it's pretty funny, except they use this trope of spurting blood. If you've ever seen the SNL shows where blood spurts out of like they did it originally on a famous uh Julia Child sketch, you know?
um and they keep doing it over the years. It's like, get the fuck out of here with the spurting blood sketch. um All right. Well, I think, you know, ending this podcast on uh spurting blood is great.
