00:06:36   watched when you finally watch the Ryan [TS]

00:06:37   yeah i mean like I'm guessing I'm just [TS]

00:06:47   right well that's pretty great right [TS]

00:06:49   yeah the war stuff is is awesome but you [TS]

00:07:26   bachelor party a witch and that's what [TS]

00:07:32   that's what like Tom Hanks character [TS]

00:07:33   development stops for me is you think [TS]

00:07:36   that the head that's the hanks about the [TS]

00:07:38   SS is standing there [TS]

00:07:40   he's standing there like that and it's [TS]

00:07:52   where he's going to have sex with a lot [TS]

00:07:53   of hookers and girls and he just can't [TS]

00:20:00   nowhere to hide and I make a perfect [TS]

00:20:02   30-second long super further and it was [TS]

00:20:08   the situation whether the reaction was [TS]

00:20:10   so instantaneous and also so perfect [TS]

00:20:13   everybody like jumped back as if as if a [TS]

00:20:19   cobra had sprung out of a half [TS]

00:20:22   yeah chairs are falling back kids are [TS]

00:20:26   like falling over each other to escape [TS]

00:20:30   and it's all happening instantaneously [TS]

00:20:32   like the sound wave hasn't even made it [TS]

00:20:34   to the wall and kids are scrambling to [TS]

00:20:36   get away from the blast zone slicks the [TS]

00:20:40   girls are screaming and yelling and I [TS]

00:20:45   and I remember I remember sitting there [TS]

00:20:47   and there was no up there was no [TS]

00:20:51   mortification because there was it was [TS]

00:20:53   not possible [TS]

00:20:54   like I couldn't be mortified in that [TS]

00:20:56   moment because it had it was so far over [TS]

00:21:02   it was so fun pat was no question that [TS]

00:21:05   you have doubt it because the kids on [TS]

00:21:07   either side of me flew away for me like [TS]

00:21:12   they were they were at Ground Zero [TS]

00:21:14   clamoring over tables to get away and I [TS]

00:21:35   pretend that i hadn't like I had a [TS]

00:21:37   superior smirk on my face and just kept [TS]

00:21:41   writing on my piece of paper and it was [TS]

00:21:46   then then it was up to them so it was [TS]

00:21:50   precisely like nothing happened but it [TS]

00:21:52   was like oh that happened but i'm just [TS]

00:21:53   going to keep moving [TS]

00:21:55   oh it happened but and I mean the [TS]

00:21:57   teachers sitting at her desk and I think [TS]

00:21:59   maybe even she stood up and took a step [TS]

00:22:01   back but then i can connect to write so [TS]

00:22:06   how the burden the burden of proof the [TS]

00:22:09   onus is on everyone else in the room [TS]

00:22:11   like what are you going to do now [TS]

00:22:13   right like you're all crowding against [TS]

00:22:14   the walls what are you gonna do next [TS]

00:22:17   yeah like eventually you have to take [TS]

00:22:19   your seats again and i'm still just [TS]

00:22:23   gonna be sitting here writing writing my [TS]

00:22:26   assignment with the self-satisfied smile [TS]

00:22:30   and eventually they did eventually they [TS]

00:22:33   all like crept back cursing me and and [TS]

00:22:39   you have better but it like it was [TS]

00:22:41   bulletproof by the next day it was it [TS]

00:22:44   was like the stuff of myth the stuff of [TS]

00:22:47   myth and also liked it was it was a [TS]

00:22:49   feather in my cap right i mean that's [TS]

00:22:52   what you think is like a few things like [TS]

00:22:54   receded in like tried to you know play [TS]

00:22:57   it off legit and go like oh no it's [TS]

00:23:00   actually like plotting your no plausible [TS]

00:23:03   deniability [TS]

00:23:04   youyou Delta you owned it if I face that [TS]

00:23:08   even gotten Red I i would i would have [TS]

00:23:10   been it would have been like [TS]

00:23:13   I might as well cut off my hands on that [TS]

00:23:16   is a career-defining was it was it was a [TS]

00:23:19   it was a moment of self-knowledge I was [TS]

00:23:21   like that's right that's right it's [TS]

00:23:24   kinda sexy almost fell apart like this [TS]

00:23:27   but as for any of you will ever hear or [TS]

00:23:29   see ya [TS]

00:23:31   and any in you were there the whole time [TS]

00:23:32   but for a lady uh i mean i have to feel [TS]

00:23:36   like if this girl had stood in the door [TS]

00:23:37   of the bathroom and send like and sold [TS]

00:23:41   tickets for a dollar [TS]

00:23:42   it would have been better for her than [TS]

00:23:44   to just kind of stumbled out of the [TS]

00:23:46   bathroom and drunkenly stumble away i [TS]

00:23:49   dont no question there's a thousand ways [TS]

00:23:50   that could have been better for her like [TS]

00:23:52   if she if she had gone like hey guys [TS]

00:23:55   and then shatter on a copy of escape by [TS]

00:23:58   journey that would like a thousand times [TS]

00:24:00   more hot that would've been hotter than [TS]

00:24:02   like necking with the second cutest girl [TS]

00:24:04   but then the fact that she space the [TS]

00:24:07   flushing he oh my god that's miserable I [TS]

00:24:11   i I'm not gonna leave that off of that's [TS]

00:24:35   that literally only wants to clamp into [TS]

00:24:38   three times it's a it's a bit but you [TS]

00:24:40   know that like you know I i learned this [TS]

00:24:42   too late but they would say that you [TS]

00:24:44   know if you had a clam [TS]

00:24:45   I don't make a face right like if you if [TS]

00:24:48   you hit like a and you know i have [TS]

00:24:51   stepped off on an important part that [TS]

00:24:53   everybody can hear like don't make a [TS]

00:24:57   will not even notice [TS]

00:25:11   tells a story when he was a young man [TS]

00:25:15   playing the drums in like and he was [TS]

00:25:20   even a drummer who backed up [TS]

00:25:22   church music at his because his father [TS]

00:25:32   teenage drummer behind all these people [TS]

00:25:34   singing and playing in church and he [TS]

00:25:37   said he was playing drums behind some [TS]

00:25:40   some singer in in a church band who was [TS]

00:25:44   really cheesy singer and really pretty [TS]

00:25:47   bad and after the you know after the [TS]

00:25:54   performance he walks off stage and his [TS]

00:25:57   mom grabs him by the shirt and she says [TS]

00:26:00   you were you were behind the drums [TS]

00:26:03   making faces at that singer when the [TS]

00:26:07   singer couldn't hit when the singer mr. [TS]

00:26:09   note [TS]

00:26:10   you would make a grimace and you can [TS]

00:26:14   never ever ever do that and tables like [TS]

00:26:18   oh I was just like and I was so awful [TS]

00:26:21   that I couldn't she was like you can [TS]

00:26:22   never ever when you're onstage make a [TS]

00:26:26   face when someone misses the note like [TS]

00:26:31   that your job if you have any job it is [TS]

00:26:35   to stand up there and present not only [TS]

00:26:37   your own flubs as you know as [TS]

00:26:42   professionally as you can but like you [TS]

00:26:43   are representing that singer you are [TS]

00:26:45   representing yourself and everything [TS]

00:26:47   while you're up there you're there to [TS]

00:26:48   support them its kind of the poor shape [TS]

00:26:50   for axiom or like you can make a face to [TS]

00:26:53   like support them and go wow that was [TS]

00:26:57   really rocking but no no ugly face no no [TS]

00:27:01   no shit face because it becomes like a [TS]

00:27:04   like a footnote like a really really [TS]

00:27:07   wish [TS]

00:27:09   yeah exactly [TS]

00:27:11   for Dave one of my Saturday night people [TS]

00:27:14   so it's a very emotional face [TS]

00:27:16   I mean I think it's think Dave it's you [TS]

00:27:20   know I'm the super tight with him but I [TS]

00:27:22   i enjoy this stuff a lot when I watch [TS]

00:27:24   him perform [TS]

00:27:25   I mean it seems like he gets very [TS]

00:27:27   involved in the music he's into it but [TS]

00:27:30   he's not making like guitar face he's [TS]

00:27:32   not making library look at me i'm like [TS]

00:27:34   hitting up you know I'm bending five you [TS]

00:27:37   know like he's he's like involved in the [TS]

00:27:39   music and it seems like a bet it was [TS]

00:27:41   kind of involuntary he was he was making [TS]

00:27:44   in other words he was not making a [TS]

00:27:46   deliberate comment on the flatness [TS]

00:27:48   sharpness or badness of the singer he [TS]

00:27:51   was just like playing the song right i [TS]

00:27:54   mean it wasn't like he was trying to [TS]

00:27:56   undermine know a thing about this is why [TS]

00:27:59   I can't go to karaoke like sitting and [TS]

00:28:02   karaoke performance I feel like I feel [TS]

00:28:08   like lemmiwinks is up my butt huh [TS]

00:28:11   I am so uncomfortable with it when [TS]

00:28:16   people sing flat that that it's [TS]

00:28:19   reflexive like my shoulders so I was [TS]

00:28:21   saying I'm gonna improv if I could [TS]

00:28:24   improv and somebody was okay i'm gonna [TS]

00:28:26   need something involving a toilet and a [TS]

00:28:29   pizza delivery ok got that and and when [TS]

00:28:32   and when it becomes uncomfortable I rock [TS]

00:28:34   even if I'm not medicated I rock back [TS]

00:28:36   and forth and have this like really any [TS]

00:28:39   your head on the wall [TS]

00:28:40   well now it's worse getting back with [TS]

00:28:43   Lisa that I seem crazy but I rock back [TS]

00:28:46   and forth with a fake smile on my face [TS]

00:28:48   because I'm feeling every scintilla of [TS]

00:28:51   putting liquor board a smile like you [TS]

00:28:54   know what's bad is you like so with the [TS]

00:28:57   karaoke or was performing like you feel [TS]

00:29:00   bad for the person because they may not [TS]

00:29:03   be fully aware that that's the thing [TS]

00:29:06   they're having a great time right like [TS]

00:29:08   you're feeling so you're feeling [TS]

00:29:09   sympathy for them and they are they [TS]

00:29:11   require no sympathy i said so I stay out [TS]

00:29:14   of that stuff I just think I've been [TS]

00:29:16   admonished by the judge in my case not [TS]

00:29:18   not not to like discuss what's going on [TS]

00:29:20   the case but i will tell you that [TS]

00:37:57   and here's the other thing what I'm [TS]

00:37:58   realizing is that Allah your uh epochal [TS]

00:38:03   fart and the Dookie of the famous girl [TS]

00:38:06   like I I spend so little of my time so [TS]

00:38:11   little of my life worrying about how it [TS]

00:38:14   would look in court you know I'm saying [TS]

00:38:17   like there's some so little of my life [TS]

00:38:19   where I'm like processing like how would [TS]

00:38:21   I even begin [TS]

00:38:22   I could explain what I did for a living [TS]

00:38:24   to these people [TS]

00:38:25   the the other jury members are still [TS]

00:38:27   asking me like what I quote on quote [TS]

00:38:29   unquote do right and I you know I slept [TS]

00:38:32   it off and go you know like i always say [TS]

00:38:34   i have two answers to what I do you [TS]

00:38:38   well uh if it's obvious you don't care i [TS]

00:38:41   say that I'm a ceramicist that's right [TS]

00:38:43   your services that's but that's right [TS]

00:38:45   and if you seem like you maybe a little [TS]

00:38:46   care i say i do things with computers [TS]

00:38:49   yeah I've heard you say that you're a [TS]

00:38:51   ceramicist people have you really heard [TS]

00:38:52   that yeah and watch the nod yes I think [TS]

00:38:55   people don't believe actually actually [TS]

00:38:57   say that I think I I generally get the [TS]

00:39:00   sense that you are going to say only two [TS]

00:39:01   people who are not who you can tell are [TS]

00:39:03   not already not listening [TS]

00:39:05   what's the same problem you run into [TS]

00:39:06   with the Circle C move in in the [TS]

00:39:09   corridors of power might be mixed [TS]

00:39:12   metaphor but you run into people who [TS]

00:39:13   like 1a like letting the slide shows the [TS]

00:39:15   slideshow with the african-american kids [TS]

00:39:18   right you you run into people who want [TS]

00:39:20   to suss out whether they should be [TS]

00:39:23   talking to you are you an entrepreneur [TS]

00:39:25   hmm we're all entrepreneurs Pyramus [TS]

00:39:29   serial entrepreneur my problem is like [TS]

00:39:31   my entire life is not structured around [TS]

00:39:34   any aspect of having a straight ahead [TS]

00:39:37   sir [TS]

00:39:38   yeah yeah no not by design it's just [TS]

00:39:41   that you know we're setting aside my [TS]

00:39:42   liberal artistic pneus like it's really [TS]

00:39:47   hard for me to explain all kinds of [TS]

00:39:49   things and yeah I just I I never process [TS]

00:39:54   what I do [TS]

00:39:55   ok so here's here's one admission [TS]

00:39:57   I'm going to allow this it is that [TS]

00:39:59   sometimes I will say like I i want to [TS]

00:40:01   stop what's happening right now because [TS]

00:40:04   as a father now I sometimes wonder [TS]

00:40:06   whether this clip here on a forum in an [TS]

00:40:09   emergency room sometimes i will think [TS]

00:40:12   like how will this look if I have to [TS]

00:40:14   explain this in a victory end of the [TS]

00:40:17   forms they don't give you a large area [TS]

00:40:18   and somewhat you know bibulous as they [TS]

00:40:20   say and so I don't want to have to [TS]

00:40:23   explain things because i rarely can and [TS]

00:40:29   let alone my job let alone in decision i [TS]

00:40:31   made like the worst feeling like like [TS]

00:40:35   what do you say when people ask you what [TS]

00:40:36   you do I mean II dt just say rockstar [TS]

00:40:39   like what he say well this is the thing [TS]

00:40:41   as you as you probably can guess I've [TS]

00:40:44   spent my entire life prepared to at any [TS]

00:40:48   moment be put on the stand in a capital [TS]

00:40:51   murder case [TS]

00:40:53   damn glad about you grew up knowing [TS]

00:40:57   knowing that you could somebody be [TS]

00:40:59   called to a Senate hearing where they [TS]

00:41:00   would say listen listen we're fast [TS]

00:41:04   tracking you for this I cannot promise [TS]

00:41:05   you this going anywhere but you might be [TS]

00:41:08   the head of the CIA [TS]

00:41:09   yeah that one get on assessment tonight [TS]

00:41:11   right right assessment citation at which [TS]

00:41:16   point i would put my hand over the [TS]

00:41:18   microphone and I would consult my [TS]

00:41:19   attorney and then that would come back [TS]

00:41:23   look back and say I Ozai also senator [TS]

00:41:27   own stock in AT&T and IBM and we're [TS]

00:41:34   Hauser timber whatever you know you have [TS]

00:41:37   to have they bring in your brother from [TS]

00:41:39   Sicily appearance in the courtroom makes [TS]

00:41:43   you so unhinged but you say well I was [TS]

00:41:46   the olive oil [TS]

00:41:48   gotta love you so much but in any case [TS]

00:41:51   yes there's two things that I'm always [TS]

00:41:54   prepared for at any moment are to be [TS]

00:41:56   subpoenaed what [TS]

00:41:57   and also to go to prison so it's more [TS]

00:42:05   than packing that small bag like you're [TS]

00:42:07   really you're ready i'm ready and one of [TS]

00:42:09   the one of the one of the ways that i [TS]

00:42:11   have i maintain that readiness [TS]

00:42:12   particularly in the case of going to [TS]

00:42:14   prison is that I have never read [TS]

00:42:17   Shakespeare sonnets because I'm saving [TS]

00:42:21   them for prison unique you need to know [TS]

00:42:26   where you're going to read in prison [TS]

00:42:29   ok in order to have your your whole like [TS]

00:42:34   a phoenix rising from the ashes story [TS]

00:42:37   you've got something to look forward to [TS]

00:42:40   yeah Malcolm X read the dictionary in [TS]

00:42:42   prison and that is bullshit first of all [TS]

00:42:44   but second of all that's like that made [TS]

00:42:47   yeah that made that my autobiography of [TS]

00:42:50   malcolm x [TS]

00:42:51   I mean that's the that is the turning [TS]

00:42:52   point of them that's the crux like you [TS]

00:42:55   think that Alex Haley imagining that if [TS]

00:42:58   he were in prison with all due respect [TS]

00:43:00   to literally everyone involved right [TS]

00:43:02   that's out to healthy imagining that he [TS]

00:43:05   might read the dictionary but in but [TS]

00:43:07   that had a profound effect on me when I [TS]

00:43:09   was whatever however old I read it and I [TS]

00:43:10   was like what am I going to read when i [TS]

00:43:12   go to prison I i should think about that [TS]

00:43:14   that's right and I said what what you [TS]

00:43:16   can't just come out of prison and say [TS]

00:43:18   like yeah I read a lot of dashiell [TS]

00:43:20   hammett or I read a lot of i read in [TS]

00:43:23   Style magazine when I can't get it right [TS]

00:43:26   I went down to the prison library every [TS]

00:43:28   week and got like three national [TS]

00:43:29   Geographics and Henry Huggins like no [TS]

00:43:32   you have to go into prison with the [TS]

00:43:34   knowledge that you are there and you're [TS]

00:43:36   going to read X and in my case in my [TS]

00:43:40   case it's all its it's all Shakespeare [TS]

00:43:42   from start to finish and ives i have [TS]

00:43:44   intentionally i never took a Shakespeare [TS]

00:43:46   class in college for this very reason [TS]

00:43:49   you're keeping your powder dry [TS]

00:43:51   that's exactly honest I I don't want to [TS]

00:43:54   give up your game here but it seems to [TS]

00:43:55   me [TS]

00:43:55   yes you're preparing a little reading [TS]

00:43:58   list for literally when you are perhaps [TS]

00:44:02   unjustly blame that matter the point is [TS]

00:44:06   absolutely and i will be will I will I [TS]

00:44:09   will have been framed clear which is all [TS]

00:44:10   the more reason to know what you want to [TS]

00:44:12   say you read while you were in prison [TS]

00:44:14   right right so so yes you will set aside [TS]

00:44:17   some of these sites which are actually i [TS]

00:44:19   don't want no spoilers but they're [TS]

00:44:20   actually not that good bye [TS]

00:44:23   you will come out saying I've learned a [TS]

00:44:25   lot about myself and I've learned a [TS]

00:44:27   lesson about love [TS]

00:44:28   that's right all right all Shakespeare's [TS]

00:44:30   I read everything i read Shakespeare [TS]

00:44:32   from front to back you know I haven't [TS]

00:44:33   been able to avoid reading Shakespeare [TS]

00:44:34   I've tried but I mean I've had to do it [TS]

00:44:37   but i have saved a large portions of it [TS]

00:44:40   for president now as for as for the the [TS]

00:44:47   subpoena that could come at any moment [TS]

00:44:49   this is the this is the this is a [TS]

00:44:51   corollary abhi of the lie detector [TS]

00:44:53   question which is do you think you could [TS]

00:44:56   fool a lie detector [TS]

00:44:59   oh do you think way too many women [TS]

00:45:02   backup so f lee Bailey says to you [TS]

00:45:05   counselor [TS]

00:45:07   do you think you could fool a lie [TS]

00:45:09   detector and you're ready for that you [TS]

00:45:11   have the yeah you have to have an answer [TS]

00:45:13   can these are so go ahead [TS]

00:45:14   yes it's so number one he get your [TS]

00:45:17   reading list you get the ring was for [TS]

00:45:19   prison where you're going on a frame-up [TS]

00:45:23   job but while you're sitting on while [TS]

00:45:26   you are testifying cord you have to like [TS]

00:45:30   we all know the wrong way to do is we [TS]

00:45:33   all know that you know you you don't [TS]

00:45:35   break down on the standard admit you [TS]

00:45:36   committed the crime who you don't look [TS]

00:45:39   too smug you know you have to have to be [TS]

00:45:43   personable [TS]

00:46:06   it is up to us to decide what evidence [TS]

00:46:08   we will believe in all or in part and it [TS]

00:46:12   is said that we that's the royal we know [TS]

00:46:16   you can also consider like how somebody [TS]

00:46:18   behaved in the trial which is generally [TS]

00:46:20   stupid if you behave you generally don't [TS]

00:46:23   know things you will tend to do better [TS]

00:46:26   right [TS]

00:46:28   really really I'm it as opposed to [TS]

00:46:30   present this again in a week as opposed [TS]

00:47:04   you you have it has to be plausible it [TS]

00:47:07   is said you gotta stick with it right [TS]

00:47:10   it has to give you lots of wiggle room [TS]

00:47:12   for being a dumb s like we should [TS]

00:47:14   usually gotta go [TS]

00:47:15   I can read but i'm confused that Ronald [TS]

00:47:18   Reagan popularized that defense [TS]

00:47:20   yes he barely remembered anything right [TS]

00:47:23   and then you know the iran-contra thing [TS]

00:47:25   like you're either in a stupid or [TS]

00:47:28   incompetent [TS]

00:47:29   yeah let the jury figure that out is it [TS]

00:47:31   is said a jury decide you know how how [TS]

00:47:36   much on appeal this this podcast is [TS]

00:47:38   going to be problematic up but that's [TS]

00:47:41   the wonderful thing about this podcast [TS]

00:47:44   we very seldom make any reference to [TS]

00:47:47   dates [TS]

00:47:48   that's right as simply as you like to [TS]

00:47:50   say you like them to be evergreen yeah [TS]

00:47:53   so we did so really anytime after [TS]

00:47:55   October of 1986 people will still enjoy [TS]

00:47:58   this even though is literally recorded [TS]

00:47:59   it so so the speed comes along [TS]

00:48:02   you're ready you got a bag packed you [TS]

00:48:04   can get a Cessna Citation yeah is that a [TS]

00:48:06   safe plane some citations yeah that's [TS]

00:48:09   the same plane [TS]

00:48:09   how far can go with that the beechcraft [TS]

00:48:12   baron let me rephrase the question [TS]

00:48:14   to your knowledge yeah if you were in [TS]

00:48:17   the continental United States [TS]

00:48:19   how far do you think strike that you're [TS]

00:48:23   ready you got the subpoena subpoena [TS]

00:48:25   comes along and what's your preparation [TS]

00:48:30   oh my preparation I mean well you know I [TS]

00:48:33   mean anything like Rachel like they're [TS]

00:48:35   they show up at the door and it's just [TS]

00:48:36   like I don't buy that I'm sorry [TS]

00:48:38   counselor I'm gonna object that is [TS]

00:48:41   unresponsive because it seems to me that [TS]

00:48:43   you must have thought through [TS]

00:48:46   yeah if you're taking a pattern if I may [TS]

00:48:48   say as large as subpoena arrives you [TS]

00:48:51   thought about a general kind of [TS]

00:48:53   comportment because you have literally [TS]

00:48:55   no if I could say fucking idea what [TS]

00:48:57   they're going to subpoena you for the [TS]

00:48:59   main selling it's like Benjamin Benjamin [TS]

00:49:01   Benjamin Franklin and spanking right him [TS]

00:49:04   every day but if you don't know if you [TS]

00:49:08   don't know what it's for they will write [TS]

00:49:09   so the spanking of the subpoena you get [TS]

00:49:12   on something called a citation you show [TS]

00:49:14   up you borrow a tie you sit down like a [TS]

00:49:16   fucking gentleman right and you're ready [TS]

00:49:18   for anything but here there's four [TS]

00:49:19   possibilities one [TS]

00:49:21   ok we're not guilty and through your [TS]

00:49:25   actions you appear not guilty to your [TS]

00:49:28   interrogators to you are not guilty but [TS]

00:49:34   through some miss action on your part [TS]

00:49:37   you appear guilty to your interrogators [TS]

00:49:41   or either either through some poor [TS]

00:49:44   action on your part or through prejudice [TS]

00:49:45   of on their part they say number two is [TS]

00:49:50   like the seeds of a frame of yeah they [TS]

00:49:52   discern guilt where there is not and you [TS]

00:49:55   you in your innocence are unable to [TS]

00:49:57   dislodge them from this misapprehension [TS]

00:50:00   third possibility is that you are guilty [TS]

00:50:03   but succeed in appearing innocent and [TS]

00:50:09   the fourth obviously is that you are [TS]

00:50:10   guilty and fail to appear innocent can [TS]

00:50:13   so in these subpoenas scenarios i have [TS]

00:50:17   no idea which one [TS]

00:50:20   well I have no idea whether first of all [TS]

00:50:22   I'm innocent or guilty of what they're [TS]

00:50:23   accusing me of [TS]

00:50:24   because it's very possible that I'm [TS]

00:50:25   guilty [TS]

00:50:26   I think spending a lot of time I number [TS]

00:50:28   with all due respect to the lady in the [TS]

00:50:31   bathroom spending a good amount of time [TS]

00:50:34   and number two [TS]

00:50:35   preparation is a pretty good idea yes [TS]

00:50:37   because number one number one what [TS]

00:50:39   you're really saying is like I've been [TS]

00:50:41   called in here and I'm not your guy like [TS]

00:50:44   you're wasting your time on me because [TS]

00:50:46   even if you prove what you're trying to [TS]

00:50:48   prove I you will not prove enough like [TS]

00:50:52   it actually didn't do it and I'm not [TS]

00:50:54   that interesting of for all four [TS]

00:50:58   scenarios what you are aspiring to [TS]

00:51:01   appear to be is the guy in the first [TS]

00:51:04   scenario right in in all in it if you [TS]

00:51:08   are if you are not guilty and and you [TS]

00:51:12   are and you appear not guilty right that [TS]

00:51:14   is what you want to look like even if [TS]

00:51:16   you are totally guilty so everybody's [TS]

00:51:20   trying everybody's reflecting back to [TS]

00:51:23   guy number one and trying to imagine how [TS]

00:51:25   they can act like him [TS]

00:51:27   how do you act not guilty but more than [TS]

00:51:34   not guilty [TS]

00:51:35   guy number one is not guilty and he [TS]

00:51:37   shouldn't even be there right [TS]

00:51:39   not guilty Man's important right not [TS]

00:51:41   only not 7200 i'm raising an eyebrow [TS]

00:51:44   because I clearly guy number two [TS]

00:51:47   seems like our guy let's hear what he [TS]

00:51:49   has to say [TS]

00:51:50   number one is is you go like clearly [TS]

00:51:52   this person is you know incapable of [TS]

00:51:57   this or there's so much mitigating [TS]

00:51:59   evidence that this person is like all [TS]

00:52:03   sorry like into questions you like with [TS]

00:52:06   all due respect your retard [TS]

00:52:07   let's move on to like a two three or [TS]

00:52:09   four well the other the other night i'm [TS]

00:52:12   driving home I got I got rooked into [TS]

00:52:14   going to see this dumb fast and furious [TS]

00:52:19   movie this recent one and i have never [TS]

00:52:24   been to see any of the other Fast and [TS]

00:52:25   Furious movies so I had no context for [TS]

00:52:27   other than I understood that they were [TS]

00:52:29   going to go fast and that they were [TS]

00:52:31   furious [TS]

00:52:32   and so I go to this thing and it's [TS]

00:52:34   insensible it's just a bunch of their [TS]

00:52:36   action sequences strung together with [TS]

00:52:38   with some like like all the actors [TS]

00:52:42   appeared to be wearing would underpants [TS]

00:52:45   and there you know and they're reading [TS]

00:52:49   their reading the bottom back of a [TS]

00:52:51   cereal box allowed that someone's [TS]

00:52:53   holding up right off right off camera [TS]

00:52:55   and then they get in a car there and [TS]

00:52:57   then it's a good it's exciting for 10 [TS]

00:52:59   minutes but i'm driving home from the [TS]

00:53:01   theater it's two o'clock in the morning [TS]

00:53:02   i'm in my hot little car have a little [TS]

00:53:05   hot car and I Drive sometimes and i'm [TS]

00:53:08   driving along and I'm like you know I've [TS]

00:53:11   just watched a movie where people are [TS]

00:53:12   really really driving their cars fast [TS]

00:53:16   and i have that in me too but i know and [TS]

00:53:20   i know on those stretch from downtown to [TS]

00:53:22   my house I know all the places where the [TS]

00:53:24   state troopers hide i'm driving Alana [TS]

00:53:27   and I and I just get this feeling like [TS]

00:53:28   what if I just say screw the troopers [TS]

00:53:34   and just drive like a bat out of hell [TS]

00:53:39   and so I'm driving along and I'm [TS]

00:53:41   imagining I'm imagining one then two [TS]

00:53:46   then three troopers in hot pursuit of me [TS]

00:53:50   and I'm thinking to myself now if I'm [TS]

00:53:55   gonna lose these troopers in you know [TS]

00:53:58   troopers know all the back roads to [TS]

00:54:01   troopers know a lot of troopers know a [TS]

00:54:05   lot of the stuff that I know but you [TS]

00:54:10   know no one expects the Spanish [TS]

00:54:11   Inquisition and the troopers are not [TS]

00:54:13   expecting me in my hot little car [TS]

00:54:17   because you know I grew up driving on [TS]

00:54:20   ice so I understand how to drift if you [TS]

00:54:23   get my drift [TS]

00:54:25   yeah but they get they get like a cop [TS]

00:54:27   engine cop shocks cop suspensions yeah [TS]

00:54:31   they do they need a cigarette lighter [TS]

00:54:32   but they have all that other stuff and [TS]

00:54:35   I'm thinking how am I going to get away [TS]

00:54:36   from these troopers and you know if [TS]

00:54:37   there's a lot of like [TS]

00:54:39   you're counting on blind corners where [TS]

00:54:42   you can cig and then you know Zig up and [TS]

00:54:46   then zap over and then cut you're cut [TS]

00:54:48   your lights and hope that they keep [TS]

00:54:50   going straight you have ended up a [TS]

00:54:52   hopeful cornfield a and I was and I was [TS]

00:54:57   practicing that I was practicing the [TS]

00:54:59   routes that I would take home if I were [TS]

00:55:01   being pursued by cops and I felt pretty [TS]

00:55:06   good about my chances [TS]

00:55:08   [Music] [TS]

00:55:09   pulling up at my point of my house [TS]

00:55:12   cutting the engine getting out and [TS]

00:55:15   making it into the inside before they [TS]

00:55:18   started doing block-to-block searches [TS]

00:55:20   you know what I mean like they would [TS]

00:55:21   know they wouldn't know in a short [TS]

00:55:23   amount of time that that I had that I [TS]

00:55:26   was in a certain area and then they [TS]

00:55:27   would just start going block-to-block [TS]

00:55:28   but my hot little car is a kind of [TS]

00:55:31   anonymous car it so there are so many of [TS]

00:55:34   them [TS]

00:55:35   out-of-the-world it's like it's like you [TS]

00:55:39   know as your counsel i'm going to say [TS]

00:55:41   don't say anymore right but you've got a [TS]

00:55:43   star that is is plausibly capable of [TS]

00:55:46   arousing the interest of a cop right and [TS]

00:55:49   Chinese got that that the means the [TS]

00:55:52   motive and the opportunity to drive fast [TS]

00:55:55   as a practice run right [TS]

00:55:59   ok so I'm sitting in my house now and [TS]

00:56:02   now I'm rehearsing knock on the door now [TS]

01:00:00   yeah did I ever tell you about the time [TS]

01:00:01   I tried to run from the cops know just I [TS]

01:00:05   don't like you have actually tried to [TS]

01:00:07   run from economy in here so is back in [TS]

01:00:12   the eighties and this guy I knew in [TS]

01:00:15   spokane who who's his dad recently died [TS]

01:00:18   and he bought a brand-new 4runner toyota [TS]

01:00:20   4runner which was the coolest car any of [TS]

01:00:24   us could think of at the time you know [TS]

01:00:27   because that was during the era when we [TS]

01:00:29   like we were like mountain ski bum types [TS]

01:00:33   i was a mountain ski ski bum s aspirin [TS]

01:00:36   it's like a sexy mini mini van meets a [TS]

01:00:40   range rover that's like a [TS]

01:00:41   four-wheel-drive but i but i'm still the [TS]

01:00:44   the original 4runners are still small [TS]

01:00:46   scale so that they felt like a it felt [TS]

01:00:49   like a jeep kind of rig but it but it's [TS]

01:00:52   seated four or six people you know it [TS]

01:00:55   was kind of like the proto SUV before [TS]

01:00:58   there was such a thing as an SUV and he [TS]

01:01:03   said that he was going over to to [TS]

01:01:06   seattle we were in spokane he was going [TS]

01:01:08   over to Seattle because he wanted to see [TS]

01:01:10   a show a rock show [TS]

01:01:13   and so this is nineteen eighty let's say [TS]

01:01:16   1988 and I have spent years trying to [TS]

01:01:22   figure out what rock show it was because [TS]

01:01:26   in 1988 in seattle dis kid's book and [TS]

01:01:30   wants to make the trip over the [TS]

01:01:31   mountains to see this rock show at the [TS]

01:01:33   central tavern it had to have been some [TS]

01:01:37   amazing Rock Show and at the time I [TS]

01:01:44   didn't recognize the name of the band I [TS]

01:01:45   was just like oh you're going to seattle [TS]

01:01:47   like can I tag along and he's like yeah [TS]

01:01:50   sure you can set you know you can split [TS]

01:01:51   the driving with me [TS]

01:01:53   and so we head out of spokane but for [TS]

01:01:55   whatever reason we don't take the [TS]

01:01:56   interstate we take the we take the small [TS]

01:01:58   road we take the the upper road which is [TS]

01:02:02   like two lane highway rolled the other [TS]

01:02:04   the the blue highways has a has a [TS]

01:02:07   billion at all says that's right we take [TS]

01:02:09   the blue highways that's actually a book [TS]

01:02:12   blue highways about about taking the [TS]

01:02:15   blue highways anyway we're driving and [TS]

01:02:19   we're driving it gets it gets to be [TS]

01:02:20   night it turns out that taking the blue [TS]

01:08:20   one of the three strikes during the [TS]

01:08:21   three strike years [TS]

01:08:23   sure evading what would you do [TS]

01:08:25   differently today I mean you know given [TS]

01:08:28   the same that lets say you for whatever [TS]

01:08:31   reason really had to get similar and you [TS]

01:08:35   know you had your reasons it was [TS]

01:08:37   Cannonball Run let's say yeah [TS]

01:08:39   yet the year always occurs as the new [TS]

01:08:42   yorker would say that yet i really get [TS]

01:08:44   it somewhere [TS]

01:08:45   Roger Moore hello and and so he will [TS]

01:08:48   look for whatever reason you have you [TS]

01:08:50   had your reasons you're driving fast [TS]

01:08:52   maybe had to get to a show or whatever [TS]

01:08:54   right or a blog [TS]

01:08:57   I into a blog here had to get to a blog [TS]

01:09:00   you're driving a vast yeah what would [TS]

01:09:02   you do differently today like starting [TS]

01:09:04   starting at the whole like I'm on the [TS]

01:09:06   open road does it begin with like I'm a [TS]

01:09:08   grown man and I don't have to drive fast [TS]

01:09:11   or yeah yeah i think that i have i have [TS]

01:09:13   dealt with speed traps you know during [TS]

01:09:16   that during the the touring years where [TS]

01:09:19   I was you know doing tens of thousands [TS]

01:09:23   of miles of highway time a year the [TS]

01:09:26   whole speed trap game is just not one [TS]

01:09:31   that it's just not worth rolling the [TS]

01:09:32   dice on oh that does this really add up [TS]

01:09:35   yeah you just you roll into West Texas [TS]

01:09:37   and as dumb as it is you just know that [TS]

01:09:40   you're you're gonna go 55 for a while [TS]

01:09:43   this happens in Florida whenever when I [TS]

01:09:45   would go on like I 75 or you know US 19 [TS]

01:09:51   or whatever you would you get that I [TS]

01:09:52   think what you're describing if I hear [TS]

01:09:54   you correctly counselor is that like you [TS]

01:09:56   would suddenly go from 55 or I guess [TS]

01:10:00   what's the upper speed limit like 70 I [TS]

01:10:02   don't Alice now I think it's 70 years [TS]

01:10:05   ago that's 80 maybe some places in [TS]

01:10:07   Wyoming but have been in florida it [TS]

01:10:09   would not be unusual to go from whatever [TS]

01:10:11   the upper limit is two like here's a [TS]

01:10:14   little sign to let you know it's a 55 [TS]

01:10:18   and here's this one that's really hard [TS]

01:10:20   to see about how it's now 10 [TS]

01:10:22   yeah that's sign beside behind a large [TS]

01:10:25   rhododendron right exactly and then you [TS]

01:10:28   get the blinking red light which you [TS]

01:10:30   know kind of says you know and it's a [TS]

01:10:33   pretty light [TS]

01:10:34   let's be honest be honest and you see [TS]

01:10:36   skate through it and what I mean you [TS]

01:10:38   know your I think there's first of all a [TS]

01:10:41   lot of people to legitimately have to [TS]

01:10:43   pee [TS]

01:10:44   yes they want to get the to the cracker [TS]

01:10:46   barrel it's a real problem they want to [TS]

01:10:48   get a tarpaulin at the walmart whatever [TS]

01:10:50   reason and i'm not here to judge i'm not [TS]

01:10:53   an expert we're making a campsite maybe [TS]

01:10:56   they're camping with their RV many [TS]

01:10:57   tarpaulin maybe they need to cut some [TS]

01:10:59   trail but they the point is that that [TS]

01:11:02   does happen like for people who don't [TS]

01:11:04   travel like that's a real thing that the [TS]

01:11:06   like from like [TS]

01:11:07   maximum speed limit to easily bustable [TS]

01:11:10   speed limit [TS]

01:11:11   maybe like half a mile or a mile yeah [TS]

01:11:14   and I don't mess around with him anymore [TS]

01:11:15   i just i see this because i've been i've [TS]

01:11:17   been nailed in so many speed traps [TS]

01:11:19   somewhere i have tried to run from the [TS]

01:11:21   cops somewhere have mostly I have not [TS]

01:11:22   but that's not your margins are not huge [TS]

01:11:25   right like you cannot afford a [TS]
