And now let's get into the show. Ladies, gentlemen, other, welcome to Apocalypse who, the only podcast recorded in the elements while we're under the elements and here he is Ooh I'm so pumped for you to see this man. He's looking good his team just won a hockey match. It's one.
Hey everybody, welcome toacune in the pack is outside. it's show outside. We're outside in the we're bringing the fight to you we're bringing the fight to you and you know what Kev I was thinking and how are you and it's a beautiful Sunday here in Soal It really is a gorgeous day in the valley. It's breezy where we are. Yes. at the at in North Hollywood and it's gorgeous. Absolutely perfect day.
You know, I was thinking on the way over here because when I do the intro, I notice you always take the energy of the intro and keep it in the tone of your voice. So then I was thinking maybe I should do the intro like different and see if Eddie still does the same energy. But you didn't do it. I couldn't do it. I didn't commit. I fell into the rut and I fell into the old old habits, you know? Well, it's interesting because we're right here we're a drummer behind the camera.
There's a guy practicing his drums and Kevin says he's doing the rudimentaries. Yes. And he's just being very methodical.. Yeah, he's playing he's playing something that's uh difficult to play, but not too fancy to look at. Oh, really? I was telling guys like Eddie Eddie, the guys like that, because I played drums for years. Those are the guys who become the greats. The guys that practice their rudiments, you know. How would you translate that to comedy?
What can a comedian do that is equivalent to what a drummer is doing? I think, I mean, you're a better guy to ask for that, but I always compared comedy to drums or any effort that you're not our rudiments that we have to practice. I would say time. time writing. I've told a lot of people this. I'm like a fat track coach.
This is something I don't do, but I I I anytime anybody's asked me, which is not, you know, uh incredibly often, but I've always said write every day, record every set, listen to every set, measure the volumes of the laughter and things that are working keep going and things that aren't get rid of and just do that every day and you'll be you'll be funny. That way, like even like a robot could do that, you know? And did you say, which is hilarious to me, you don't do this?
No, I don't do it as often as I should. My kids, I've got some great advice for you now. I don't do it. I told you I find it to be pen in the ass. I don't have the discipline, but if you do, it will help. No, I'm very much like that. Yeah. I feel like I've got tons of great advice in my mind that I don't want we all do we all do. We all know what we need to do and then we just have to have uh the follow through on it, you know?
Yeah. You my great therapist, Dr. Rachel Fell says it's about intention. H having an intention, going into a day with intention. Yeah, I love that. Going into the day with intention. I think it's valuable and literally everything, you know, a relationships or uh work or whatever. and when I used to be a manager of people, I would I would tell people like, I don't you know, we't we're not going to have some sort of specific thing that you need to do.
If you're going to be good at this job, it's going to be your version of being good at it. So just decide that you're going to have fun, because you're gonna be here for eight hours anyway. You might as well do a good job, you know, uh, but just having people kind of be like, all right, yeah, you're right. I'll decide to be good today.
Um, but uh Well, we all kind of use um sometimes we use this little escape hatch of, oh, could you tell me how to do something when we know full well what we have to do. But that person may give us then an excuse not to do anything for a bit. Yes. Well, I smoked cigarettes for like a year and a half at one point.
And you obviously every time you smoke a cigarette in any time in the last 40 years, I would imagine, you know it's bad for you, but I was still doing it and I literally had one person that worked with me say why are you doing that? You should stop smoking and I stopped smoking like the next day. I was like she's right. I'll I'll stop. It's so I was very interesting to me. I felt like I am I not in control of my own mind and my own actions? You are, but you play games with it.
Yeah. At first time I laid eyes on you, I said, this guy is playing games with his own fucking mind. You're not wrong. I said, he's out of his mind, but it's intentional. So it's a very fine line with you. It's like Felipp Petite when he was walking between the twin Ters. God rests their souls, both of those great grand dams that came down and uh 2001. Yep, yep. That was traumatizing. It was. Yeah, I know for you just like Philippe Petit, I try to walk the line.
You ever see the documentary on Philippe Petit? Amazing going in between the if you haven't seen I think it's called man on wire. Man on a wire or man on wire. I think it's called man on wires. I think man on a wire is on the nose. It's yeah it's two on the nose. Man on wire. Now that's artistic. He's getting French with it. Manonire is he French? Yes. I would imagine with the name like Philippe Petit, I'm not sure if he's alive still. Got to look that up. I wonder.
I don't think he is, but if you're watching Philippe and you are alive, my apologies, this happens a lot. No one will ever do that again and well, that's a self-evidence statement since the Twin Towers came down. By the way, um theisco has a cooker for the Twin Tower club. It's called oh shit run. oh shit run is our our scalps, well, if they're not scalps. They're pri. They're uh live on. Please don't film with the ring camera. They are uh not supposed to be so oh shit, run.
It's a cookie by the miso the world isames. That's subcookie. Look for the desk covered children on the box. So, you know, I one time I went through that period of having in a recorder that my parents got me and I got into it for a little bit. Like I'm going to be a recorder artist, you know, and I started buying Yanni. Oh yeah. Did you get it did you uh three blind mice? Oh, did you get after it? I got after it. I did I was able to do three blind mice.

You as a as it like a a nine year old in your living room? Eddie Peppertone brings you S sergeant Pepper's lonely Hearts Club ban. recorder only.

No. You're you could hear your father in the background just ranting while you're playing Sergeant Peppers through the recorder. Did you ever play an instrument other than the record? I was a couple of months into guitar lessons. Yeah? A couple of months. Yep. Did you master it after?
No, I didn't I didn't follow through on it. Maybe I I was like doing it on and off for six months, maybe. Yeah. And then I just didn't want to want to do what it takes. That's how I was with karate. Yeah. I I took karate lessons, but it only lasted about a month. I just couldn't. I didn't I wasn't into it. Right, right. And I liked it. I mean, I like guitar. I I'm still playing with that thought in my head. Do you have like an acoustic or anything?
No, I'm going to buy one, though I thinksolutely. Get one. I mean, just play around with it. It's it's a lot of fun. 150 bucks oh yeah, you could get one for 150 for sure. for sure.

Now, I want everybody to get comfortable and, uh, as we all know, getting comfortable and in uncomfortable world is um not easy. The trick to being comfortable in an uncomfortable world is being okay with the uncomfortability. Don't always yearn. Don't always crave. Don't always desire something. Be happy with what you have. Can you do that? With your first inbreath, I want you to just be happy with what you have. So let's let's take in a breath and let's let's be happy for what you have.
Here it is, you hear the crow in the background happy with his lot in life, which is to be a crow flying around. And I know what you're thinking. If I could fly, I wouldn't be miserable and on Zolaft. If I could fly, I wouldn't be on Zolloff. Well, you're doing again what people do who are depressed and that's compared despair. compare despair. Who, by the way, is also a great British sca band. They're very good.
We have a murder of crows that have just landed above us in the trees, so that is so you can hear just life going through you. Okay, so you're on Zollaf, so you have some debt. So you realize that huh, maybe capitalism isn't a good idea because everybody is out for themselves and there's only a finite amount of resources and it's being hoarded by greedy, greedy, disgusting, morally repugnant billionaires, but you're in loose fitting clothing, take in a deep breath.
see yourself as inside an egg yolk, like you're an egg and your yolk without the all of it, without the cholester, just your white at your white beaten, white beaten. not white, white egg beaten and scrambled eggs, Beverly Hills, all kinds of paparazzi. Everybody's smoking a cigar and wanting a piece of you, they unzip your breath.
Anyway, get back now to your breath and just feel like okay, I may have done cocaine last night and made prank phone calls on on an identifiable number, but you know what? I'm back today. Yes, I may have called three different X's ors, but I am back today. I am gonna eat vegetables. I am not gonna call any of my exes. I'm gonna breathe in lightfitting clothing. I'm gonna make my own wonton noodles. I'm gonna go on YouTube and they're gonna show me how to make wonton noodles.
which you probably can do it on in a pot on the stove of oil, a you know, a skillet, slightly deep skillet by the noodle, the wonton noodle fold, fold in, chicken or pork or beef or impossible meat or beyond meat and call me in the morning.

And now another tale of peepitone riding the rails. There was Friday afternoon and I had the itch. I had the itch to travel. I was only seven, but I had saved up to eight dollars.
I had on little knickers, pants that were very tight on me. I was a seven year old and I didn't give a damn about nothing but the road ahead of me. And I saw a train in Penn station, a freight train, and I jumped on it and I just had my eight dollars and a tuna sandwich. A tuna sandwich in some cellophane, and that cellophane was wrapped so tightly and so elegantly on my tuna fish sand. Sometimes I would just take out the cellophane.
and I would look at the tuna sandwich and I would I would say, where is this story going? You know, I would look at that tuna sandwich, and I'd be like, is this story going anywhere? Is he gonna is it that story is mostly about the cellophane. Hey, Dad, hey, Dad. Hey, Dad, yeah? Yes, sir. Um, why don't we why do you think I could get out of this cabin and and go see my real friends wherever I'm from. I thought I was your best pal. Okay, Dan, I'm ready to pray for celebrities.
And now praying for celebrities. Oh, dear God, I hope you keeping an eye on I pe gitty, okay, I understand he was a very bad man, but people with a lot of money have so many options. And I don't know if all of us presented with that many options wouldn't just start freak off parties with people who've been forced into the country. Very empathetic. Also, I'd like to pray uh for uh will Wilfford Brimley family. Also, uh Elon Muskada, you know. yes, it turns out he's a South African Nazi.
All right, but you know what? Are we not all fwed? I mean, I drop cereal and sometimes if it's in a really hard place to get, I'll just leave it and not nobody's the wiser. He who is without sin cast the stone. Yes. And that I also I also want to pray for all the tycoons pray to the Lord, son. God, please look down on the people who are heavily invested in black rock, black rock. You know, everybody looks at black rock as a short thing and apple as a short thing and Boeing as a short thing.
you know, Elon Musk has received more subsidies and all these big corporations are examples of welfare for the rich and capitalism for the poor, socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor. And God, I just want to if you I wonder if you could just take a lightning bolt and strike down all the people who are against people accumulating more money than in time. There there are now three families that own more than half of all Americans. And that's the pipe I want to smoke at. Thanks, Scott.
Thanks for joining us in another praying for celebrities. Wow, we hadn't seen that fella. I'm so glad we got a little praying for celebrities in there. I think that's a solid a solid especially now. Have you been following any of the ditty trial since uh any or the dies and stuff? It hasn't started yet, okay. No, I'm going to wait for the book, I think. Oh, yeah, yeah, good call. Good call. I think there's already $12. documentaries about them out right now.
There's one that I watched a little bit of and I didn't I didn't like it. Yeah, some of them are really bad. The TMZ ones are like I guess this whole cookie cutter shit now. Yeah. Like let's get a dock out and hopefully it'll sell, but yes. By the way, I I got a a script I wrote about uh the the pornography in the background. guy, where you're the CEO of a company and you come in and somebody has turned off the pornography and?
Yeah, so you just go through the room berading everything single person questioning who turned it off. But I'm excited to finish it and send it to you, because I want to show it would just be like a one shot a one room thing, but uh it'd be fun. That sounds good. And it's already a bit that we that we do. It's like our you know it's our bit, so it's like let's do it. Let's Everybody loves pornography in the background. I think that's a pretty solid bit.

I know we I was supposed to get gusts today to go to shoot uh children being slaughtered but there's two really cute dogs so it's always a mix back. It's always a mix back, yes. And that's what I want to leave you with today, folks. Another thing we haven't seen in a while. What do we have?
We're at 45 right now, so we're we're doing pretty good, but that includes the uh the the ad and everything. Oh, okay. um but I think a final thoughts could be good, you know, a little final thoughts from from Eatone in a beautiful day the new President Trump after his first month in office, final thoughts. Well, uh yes, we've had uh a month of um a month of uh, you know, what it's like to be run by someone no, it isn't a one.
It's the system as the system collapsed many years ago was bought and paid for uh by corporate money and so nobody was fighting for working people. Everything slipped away and now there's no safety net and we're left with billionaires just uh taking what little is left and it's pretty amazing. It's pretty amazing that it's come to this that we don't have um, you know, a system in place to help people. And now we're all going, oh, well, look at this, look at this, you know.
And yeah, it's not good. What do you think about it? uh you know, I'm trying to be optimistic. uh uh I I am seeing well, for example, like what I was showing you before the podcast, like the amount of uh different uh checks that are going out from the US government from tax money to um unverifiable sources. Like there's some some of them where they're like, literally they go, where did this money go to? It's a line item.
They follow up to try to find out where the money went if it went to the thing it was supposed to go to, and it's it's not. They can't find it at all. And it's it's I think we're up to billions of dollars now that they're finding. So, well, hold it, hold it. Are you siding with mus going into data? He has no right to go into? No, I, but I'm I'm where he's pointing where he's saying that there's all this waste going on when meanwhile, this motherfucker doesn't pay any taxes?
Well, I mean I don't know. I do you mean you don't know what are you saying, Kev? Here's what I'm saying. I what are you saying about about Mus being able to dip in? Well, I don't know. I don't know if that's good or bad. I think that's going to be yet to be to be seen. I wish it was somebody else. I wish it wasn't him because the the government does need to do an audit. You know, they've been there's been horrible spending.
We've no I mean, that's been like a punchline forever that the government doesn't spend money well. But but, dude, the government is bought and paid for by these billionaires who have everything and you're talking about some waste in the government when these guys have all of the money all of it. Well, hopefully the they'll find the money as going to these people and stop it, but I don't know if that'll happen. But that uh what are you saying? whose side are you on? I don't have any side.
I don't know. I like I said you you're like where do you think about it? I'm like I'm you don't have any sign. I have a side America right now is being eaten alive by billionaires. My side would definitely be I'm more of an observer on a lot of this stuff because I don't I don't have any power to to change a lot of these things.
So like when I see, you know, somebody coming forward with a bunch of documents showing billions of dollars to going to random other countries, um I'm like, I'm I'm my interest is piqued. I'm like, oh, really? Billions of dollars are going out of the US for the line items that they're saying are ridiculous. So I'm of the mine now. Either it's a lot of you? What's going out? uh you got to look at the What is going out? Tell me.
There was like a one for like uh voluntary adult circumcision in uh South Africa. It was like several million dollars. Um, I can't remember the other ones. And again, I I am I'm telling you this because I'm this is what I've seen, you know, this is what is being reported. So I don't again, I don't know if it's true. So it's either a lie and they're full of shit and it's another fucking grift from Musk and Trump and his all of his cronies or it's actually something that they're finding, you know?
So I don't know. I'm waiting and seeing. because he's in. You know what you don't have, Kev? You don't have an overview. You don't have uh, like the the view from above looking down bird's eye? Yeah. yeah, because it is controlled. Yeah. You know, uh by these billionaires, like look over here, poor people. Look at all this waste going on. Meanwhile, these guys have monopolies. They have offshore accounts where their taxes go.
and they're saying, oh, look, people are cheating on social security or there is uh, uh, you know, X amount of dollars going to fund volunteer circumcision. But meanwhile, they just are accumulating everything. Amazon not wanting to unionize. There are no unions. That's that has been happening. There are no unions. They're trying to unionize right now, which is really encouraging. Have you seen some of that footage? No, it's it's it's it's happening.
Like they're shouting down the managers that are having to like walk away from negotiations and shit. And uh it's exciting because that's that's tons of people. What about Starbucks? I don't know about Starbucks.
I haven't seen Anyway, these billionaires, Dave' Hoodwink you they've got no I'm I'm being serious buddy they have got you going hey look at what they're doing m motherfuckers I'm very curious what is uncovering well this is you see people in and you're from this area the central California Fresno they they have been hoodwinked by the rich and they they say government is wasteful and what we want to do is get rid of all government and now they don't have any regulation.
They don't want unions and guys like you were saying see they cleaned it up. Hey folks, even though you know, me and Kevin are together in this joint venture, I just want you to know we have differences. Hey, I'm just reporting on what I saw. I don't know. true I don't have any opinion. I don't have any opinion on anything I'm a blank slake. Dude if somebody tells me they found money that's wasteful I'm like great bring it back you know get the deficit down let's see what we can do.
but I don't know I mean it's coming from a source that is a piece of shit. So it's like I I don't know how to take it, but I'm taking it as it comes to me, you know? And I do I do see everything through the lens of of who this guy is, you know, the fucking Nazi salute bullshit. But it's like, so then there's another part of me, too, that's like when I see this stuff, because I'm peaked. I'm going, oh, well, what it I'm going, well, how are they fucking as soap? You know what I mean?
So how is this what is the what is the true under understory here that's actually going on, you know, and looking for that this little doggie. hey buddy what's your name? Elvis he's handsome boy. What's your name? Aldie Kevin Elvis posing for you. Alvis Alvis. How old is Elvis? three years old and I. Oh, I love that. Elvis, are you Irish? It's a great picture that's a really good picture you guys.
Oh, folks, we're having a great time with Alberto and Elvis and now a husky a huskies joined the party. We're connecting on Instagram and this is what Yeah, me too. Yeah, really nice meeting you, Alo. All right, everything seems to. just Elvis is gorgeous, isn't he? squeeze. Yes, so sweet. All right, well hey, you know we're we've we've put in the time here, uh, you know?
how do I get out of this uh don't worry about it no don't worry about it but it's just that I think I should point out to you what to me is the game. Yeah. It's very easy to think that these guys, first of all, you don't want to believe that they don't have your interests at hearts because that's then it's anger. It's betrayal and people don't want to feel anger and betrayal. They rather think, oh, you know, our leaders wouldn't no way.
No, no, no, no, no. I I am of the mind that they're all fucking us. And I have never, I haven't been pumped about any political person in a very long time.
Since I was in college, I mean, like literally every person is fucking see through, you know, you see exactly what they're doing or they're bullshit or just like, or maybe they're great, but you don't feel like you're seeing their actual personality, you know, like so I mean, I've I've never expected anything but all the negative shit that everybody said about Musk and Trump. But when they throw stuff out, I'm going, all right, let's this is the new grift how they're doing it.
Let's see what happens, you know? If they end up sending me a check from finding money or whatever, I'm like, okay, like what you know, I didn't vote for the guy, but I haven't voted in a very long time either. Well, one thing we know, we we have to fight back with unions and there's an incredible group called Workers strike back. And uh the councilwoman from Seattle, who's a wondrous lady, uh asks, I think it's Casan salant. Anyway, look on my Instagram. She's great.
