Transcript

I love this song. I was to think about how I'm not sick of it. It's a beautiful song and I think it should stay forever. Then we played at eight a m. Two A good Morning, met You, Flex a hot Dog, the downb Tear Looking to party. We have comedian TJ. Miller joining the show at nine o'clock. He likes to party. He's the type of guy who I would imagine We'll take an eight pm edible and just kind of see where the night takes it. Yeah, TJ.

Miller pro probably sleep till noon the next day, and yeah, write a couple jokes. I don't know what comedians do, and then do it again, all right, one of these hard working comedians in the game, always chuck full of tour dates. TJ. Miller joined us at nine. I think comedians just use their notes on their notes app on their phone for everything. I think nowadays, Yeah, I have a special app, so writers

have. Yeah. Probably. Oh, I think a lot of people just yeah, it's just the notes app is good enough because you can't organize it. Pretty good, and I write them down. I share comedians all thoughts, I say comedians, and it's fund say comedians. Well, I just found in my hoodie. Well, a couple of jokes who scribble down please read them verbatim. Read whatever that is verbati start at the top. The down will be in full force for the entire month of December. There's a

joke. This guy's funny have higher vacation days. That's how we schedule. Scribbled on a piece of paper and stuffed in Cavio's hoodie front handwarming pocket. It's a good place to keep stuff. It is boot bags, your phone, sandwiches. If no one's noticed your friendly neighborhood downbeat and held most of the station. Has not taken any days off for like a year. M h. I mean there's been sprinkled in days. But you know, we get a couple of three weeks of vacation, so we're in a bit of

a pickle. Yeah, so we're just trying to work it out. It's been a weird year, you know. Yeah, head down, grinding, head down, grind it out, trying to get this thing off the off the ground. We're running out every work it is not working, is not It makes you a question who it is. The whole Tim Tebow thing where I am questioning hard work. Well, maybe we should listen to the hold Tim Tebow's speech and see what that's. Everybody wants to talk about discipline and

hard work and all these things. I don't believe in them. Okay, there you go. No discipline, no hard work. Yeah, he doesn't believe in him, and he achieved greatness. Yeah, the most famous college athletes the last twenty years. Yeah. And then they parlated into a correspondent gig on Good Morning America. Are you excited? So anyway? Shut up? Kids? Shut up? Okays? Oh god? Does he not know how to shush people? Let's use our inside voices? He just yelled?

Or are you excited? You want have to go? No? No, speaking of you. Guys. Know, Christina can't whistle. You guess that one? Like at all? She can't whistle at all all weekend. I tried to, like teach her to whistle. How do you teach someone to whistle? I've looked probably half a dozen times on for YouTube instructional videos on how to do the whistle with your fingers. Yeah, I can't master it. I can't do that either. I try, and I try. I

bet Kevin can do the two pinkies shoved in your gullet. I can't do that one that I can't do anyone who could do that. And it's like a thousand decibels louder than whatever the regular whistle is. Wow, it's a magic trick. I can whistle with you with mouth open and with lips pursed, like your your stereotypical whistle. Do the mouth open, here's my lips purst Well, we all know what that is. We want to just skip that. Oh the whistle talker, tongue whistle, Okay, I got that

one. That's beautiful. That's a bird God love with the music. It's a morning bird. Hey, good morning, everybody. Let the sweet sounds of the morning bird. That wasn't that good? Actually? I thought I was better put them so much better earlier. Yeah, maybe it was the music. So she can't whistle. You can whistle, right, yeah, and she we can all whistle. It's here your guns and roses, patients, so low. I do inward whistling as much as I do outward whistling

more. Yeah, inward is easier to control. Yeah, you get a nice tone. So we were talking about it. She's like, I can't whistle all right, let her up. Let me see I swear to god, she just goes did whistling? Yes, No, And then she'll go I guess she'll go, yeah, there's a little bit in there. Oh, there's a little in there. She keeps trying to tell me that it's working. I'm like, honey, I'm ready. No, I'm staring at him one foot of which and she never changes what she's attempting to do.

She just keeps going, come in here and do this here in a little bit. Maybe when she was a little kid, somebody was incrementally letting out the air from a bicycle tire and told her that was whistling the tires whistling, honey, look and then she perfected that. Well, we were just flipping switching out yesterday. As from what was ear was like, you know, Christina can't whistle. It was like, Nochristina, whistle And I like, I was like, you can whistle. Go ahead, I like turn

my back to do something. And the noise I was like, are you calling birds or something? What are you doing around the office telling everyone, h hey, look at this, dummy, I can't even whistle. But it really had you thinking, like I can't even read. How did I learn to whistle like I thought about it, Yes, And I think I literally just sat around one day as a kid and it was just like making like perking my lips and trying to you know, you kind of stumble on

it too. Yeah. But what I realized it's it's almost impossible to sit next to someone, an adult and explain to them how to whistle. I don't have I don't even know how to do it. So I noticed when she does this, she's just kind of blowing air through her teeth, and a real whistle I think does come from your lungs, right, m hm, Like aren't you using your diaphragm? Is it coming in? Yeah? So you it's there's nothing below the neck, you know. She's just yeah,

that's true. Yeah, you really can't whistle without using effectively diaphrag Right. So I figure that out, and I was excited. I'm like, oh, here we go. This is me explain this to her. But again it doesn't. Then I just keep hearing and I'm like, you know, what's stop? I never thought about that because you can hold your breath and still sing by letting out just a tiny bit of air. You know,

what do you mean? I mean, it's it's the wrong way to sing, but you can like breathe in you're not like singing for most people is more of like a head voice thing where you're kind of just singing and everything's real constricted. But the ones that are singing and really projecting using their diaphragm. What about inward singing? Did you invent inwards singing? I did not. I think you know who did. That's the key to this, skinns. If you ever wanted to know just inward sing no one ever wanted

to know. It makes me cough when I try to do that. Yeah, she gets in here, Yeah, to be embarrassed about it. Whatever you told everyone you did, You told America that was a kept secret. The girl gets up early, doesn't She's reached out by thirty minutes, right, yeah, late late six is maybe seven. That is commitment is number one thing people think. The midday shift is the one you want. You still have to get up for for the mid day shift. Yeah, it's

true. You get up early for the morning shift, of course you do. And we run into places where businesses aren't open when you're on your way into work, which are problems. I forgot my protein bar see this boy today. Everybody horacious appetite. I am a Hongy. He's like King Curtis over here wanting bacon. That way I do good norm way, I do a good solid father of having fun, King Curtis, I'm on a new team on this one. What team is that having fun? That kid is

the padre team having He might be as significant as Liltarian for vintage. Yes, I don't know what a wife swap. And he was like five, all you wanted was bacon. But he was like brilliantly logical too. Yeah no, yeah, you're the boundaries you were setting for me. It was like an incredibly intelligent kid. He can negotiate, not afraid to play that. You're not my real dad. Card Well, in the first one minute that the camera was in the house, you tell me what to do.

I don't know. No, that does not work for me. She is a main person, King Curtis, militarian or whatever. She is an ugly person. He would call her by her name, O God, yeah, we might need a he was down being meme rewind okay, deal, totally got and he wanted bacon. That's all he wanted bacon for sounds good. I remember when boy this is that's like, damn, you're twenty years old. I remember when that came out and we reviewed it on the Old Hardline.

I think we referred to that was baby greg O. Yes, because yes, can't you just yeah, my bacon just so set and whatever crap you decide in your own head. It's just locked in. That's it. That's what I'm getting. Nothing'll knock you, no, that's just how it goes. God, No, Christina is awake. Just text me. I'm never whistling ever again. See what you've done. So anyway, Kevin comes in here all grumpy ass. You couldn't normally do pretty good, normally healthy,

And I'm like, we're having a protein bar and that's it. You know, maybe I'll have a zot over here, but like, that's it. We'll have a protein bar and we're rock solid. And I got up on the elevator today and I reached in my pocket and went, crap, I forgot my protein bar. So I'm here going you have to eat. You have to eat to have energy and to get going in the morning. We need to do is not you have water. I don't know. I'm gonna I'm gonna it's a big week for hamburgers. Look, Kevo, you

don't have your your damn fruit bar or whatever it is. If there was a stack of chili cheese water burgers out there and you were told, look, that's all there is, there's no escape, I believe no alternative. It is burger time. If it was a single, you can flip a patty into the trash can. No you can't. That's weird. You're gonna peel a paddy off a double? No? What are you psychopath? Look what it did to you for an entire It ruined your week. It ruined

So it's nice and warm, Go in the bathroom, lock the door, and set up a nice little breakfast in the back of the tank. So you guys didn't say me sneaky's you? You shame? You shamed the idea of flinging the pat you know, but think about how much better you would have been if you'd have removed one of the patties from

And then you go to the pharmacy and they when you call them, they're like, yeah, it'll be good to pick up five point fifteen, and you swing by and it's four there. You go, oh, no, we didn't have it yet. We need we need your doctor to get around the

I thought we were going through your morning routine. We've done it. My morning routine was different today than it was yesterday because at eight o'clock last night, I decided to take a sleepy time gummy, a gummy so I could go to bed at a decent hour and get you know, seven

or eight nice, fat, full hours of deep sleep. You texted that to us after I sent you a You guys are steals shot of the Jardian's commercial I was on during Monday night. That's why I took the edible. I was trying to shock you with the things I my interest. I didn't know, just been taking a lady and what I had hoped for. What i'd hoped for upon taking said sleep gummy was like you know, mentioned a nice, full seven or eight hours of uninterrupted, deep, helpful sleep.

Absolutely what happened was basically Alice in Wonderland played in reverse, with the soundtrack being the first Pink Floyd album for six hours, waking up asking myself, should I take the day off at like four thirty? At four thirty, like an hour? Yeah, two hours ago, it's fine. Now you're tweaking at fourth thirty. Nothing. A little brushing of the teeth and a grapefruit and a face wash was to help brushing you up. Oh my gun, is it a rarity for you? Very very very mean. Yeah,

yeah, very I agree with Kevin's initial question of why eight o'clock. I've timed it out. I thought, okay, these usually last about four to six hours. Wrong. I enjoyed really low dose too, man, Yeah, hardly anything seemed super late to me. Reason I mean every time, and I have not done a lot of this stuff, but I did once in Seattle, and I was very much affected. The next day and a half later, you're sitting there going, good God, it's been thirty six

hours. Yeah, you're like, oh, I'm still feeling it. By that whole game has changed from when we were getting a giant bag for twenty five dollars. It was just dust weed, terrible and you might feel a little bit, and then it turned into great weed, and then all indoor hydroponic everything, and then weed that makes you feel like you need to call an ambulance. Yes, and now it's the strains are gorilla panic and this

is permanent. Am I always feel this way and you're how can you not now subconsciously have the thought of what if this is laced at a little benefitingel Dude, that wasn't in my head this morning? Is that weed gummies? They have it sometimes in there too. I've never heard that just way I've heard people talk about it. It's like that it can now get into anything like okay, it can. But when the gummies are manufactured, they're sealed. They're not like making bathtub gin. Yeah. This was a you know,

corporate, yeah, purchase thing. It wasn't like off the street or anything. These are beautiful as much as much as they could be regulated. Colorful packaging, friendly, friendly baggage. I bet there's more THC or kick in that full gummy had you taken the full on them. We used to smoke in a bag of weed in a month, no doubt, there's no

question. And it's really crazy. I've told you before that that because they I refused to get a prescription filled for one of the OxyS after my back surgery in twenty eighteen, and that's what got me through the recovery and the pain leading up to the surgery. Was Yeah. Yeah, that's probably about the last time that I'd even thought about trying one. But I thought, you know, a little corner off this guy to go to sleep, why not and boil boy? Sure? Hi, Jimmy Hendrix dream are you here?

But try it again. Dot'll stick a little test here tonight. Okay, maybe earlier, take one at six and just going to see where we're because because you need to find out how long these last?
