Hello.
Hello, Joe.
What's going on?
How you doing?
Good.
Nice space suit.
You have a nice space suit as well.
Cool.
Why'd you choose blue?
I don't know.
The silver one's a little tense.
Yeah, it's a sweat box.
It's weird how warm they get.
Yeah.
It's like one of them emergency blankets.
Ever seen them?
Those little thin silver ones?
Like, how can that help you?
Yeah.
I guess it does somehow.
Maintains heat.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
So what's it like being a club owner?
What's it like to be a club owner to you, sir?
It's weird.
Who would have ever thought?
I know.
That makes no sense.
When we started doing this podcast, that one day we'd both be club owners.
Right next door to each other.
That's what's hilarious.
Yeah.
And people are like, does it bother you that Red Band opened up a club three doors down?
I'm like, no, it's great.
It's great because it's, you know what it's like?
You have two rooms.
You have your beautiful big boy or whatever.
But that to me is the main room.
Yeah, Fat Man's the main room.
And then your other one, I think, is the OR.
And I feel like mine's kind of like the belly room because it has the same, like, you know,
the same kind of shows that are in the belly room.
The same kind of like the comics are experimenting with new things over there.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
So it's kind of like the main three now.
I think it's kind of cool.
Well, we have so many good spots just on that one street.
Yeah.
I mean, Vulcan is just a few doors down.
Mm-hmm.
Creek in the Cave is just a block away.
It's crazy.
Mm-hmm.
It's like, and when you're in town and when different comics are in town, like Voss was at the Vulcan
and then he came by and did my club.
And then, you know, all these different people are doing that, just going back and forth.
And it's great.
Yeah.
It's awesome.
Yeah.
I fucking love it.
Yeah.
And I think it's because there's no major sports teams here, right?
You know, so there's music and comedy are the big things in this town.
So...
I think the music set everybody up for going out to see live shows.
Yeah.
Because it's like a culture of going to see live shows in this town.
Mm-hmm.
That was established by people going to see music.
I mean, there's so much fucking...
Alice Bullard got ripped off.
Did you see that shit?
They were in South Carolina, I think.
Fucking cunts.
What happened?
Dirty thieves.
They broke into the trailer.
Yeah, they broke into his trailer, stole his guitars, his amps, everything.
Oh, my God.
And now he's got three more shows and no equipment.
I saw that.
So, is it Alice Bullard Music on Instagram?
I think he's going to put up a GoFundMe.
Yeah.
He's got to go out and buy guitars.
Oh, look at that.
Oh, look at that guitar, too.
Fuck.
You know, that's the kind of guitar, though, that when somebody tries to sell it, it'll
probably get back to them.
Well, hopefully, because of this, we'll tell everybody.
But it's...
What is it?
A 1979 guitar?
Is that what it said?
A Dobro?
Yeah.
So, an Eastman 10D Dobro, two Telecasters, and a Custom.
Fucking scumbags.
That sucked.
It couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
He's the best.
He's talented as fuck, too.
Yeah.
There it is.
1979 Dobro.
Yeah, man.
That's ugly.
There's some scumbag musician that'll buy that and know when it's stolen.
Right.
Ugh.
Desperate people.
That sucks.
Yeah.
Thievery is just so gross.
It's amazing how little there is, though.
You know, I was thinking about that the other day, about car accidents.
People suck at driving.
But, God, it's amazing how few car accidents there are.
Most people, every day, you're just moving around, no car accident.
It is weird.
And you always...
You have to have trust in everybody, too.
Yeah.
Like, there's sometimes when you're driving by the semi and you're like,
Okay, I hope you see me.
Yeah.
Bro, it's all phones.
People need that Apple CarPlay.
It's the shit.
You don't...
You can do anything that you need to do without ever touching the phone.
You just say, Hey, Siri, call Red Van.
Bam.
Hey, Siri, text my mom.
What do you want to say?
And then you just say it.
It's like you can say, Hey, Siri, navigate to.
And you go wherever the fuck you need to go.
You don't have to touch anything.
It's the best.
It's a real bummer that Tesla won't do that.
Why won't they do that?
Because they said that theirs is better than Apple's.
It's not.
It's not.
It's one of the worst things I've ever used.
They get some things right and some things really wrong.
Really wrong is the fob.
What is it called?
It's not called a fob.
What is it called?
The fucking...
The car key thing?
The stupid handle.
The yoke.
Oh, it's so dumb.
Yeah.
It's just no.
No with the yoke.
Give me a goddamn steering wheel.
Well, now you can.
Now you can.
Now they give you the option.
You could probably get yours retrofitted with it back on now.
Because now it's an option when you order a car now.
Can I get the horn in the center, please?
Exactly.
That's the dumbest thing ever.
Fucking sons of bitches.
And they also sell third-party steering wheels that actually...
It's a yoke, but they...
See the one on the bottom right?
Where it makes it a little bit better.
That's actually cool.
Yeah.
That's third-party.
They did a nice interior in that car, too.
Yeah, the interior is like...
I was in the interior of a Porsche electric car.
It's very nice.
Very nice.
That's the new one?
No, that's another aftermarket.
But do they have it as an option?
No.
Can I go to Tesla and say,
Hey, get rid of this whack-ass steering wheel?
Yeah.
Yeah, when you order, just go to Tesla.com
and act like you're ordering a car
and one of the options should be a Model S.
One of the options is you can get a steering wheel.
From what I understand.
It's just for driving, for actually turning and parking.
It's stupid.
The yoke is stupid.
It's funny because when they first...
When they first...
There, Rick.
Steering wheel.
Yeah, you can choose regular.
Aha!
Give me a goddamn steering wheel.
Yeah, when they first announced it, though,
I was like, that's the coolest thing ever.
I want that so bad.
But just like the little thing
of not putting the horn in the middle
and the turn signals.
Oh, it looks like the horn...
No.
The horn's back in the middle.
Yeah, it's in the middle.
Yeah, definitely.
That's what I need, Elon.
Why would you put the horn in the middle?
Are you sure?
Yeah.
Well, what I'm seeing is
when I change it from yoke,
the buttons all stay the same.
It's just the outside stays the same.
Yeah, because the new yoke
has the horn in the center as well.
Oh, that does?
Yeah.
Okay.
They fixed it.
But mine doesn't.
Mine sucks.
Some guy cut in front of me
and I was like, Jesus, buddy.
Just looking for the...
And the turn signal,
do you constantly hit the turn signals?
Always wrong.
So bad.
Accidentally hit left,
or indeed right.
This is the...
The stalk is the way to go.
Yeah.
It's so easy.
It never gets in the way.
There's nothing back there.
Right.
Your hands are never back there.
So just go like this.
Right.
Left, right.
We know how to do it.
It's perfect.
Yeah.
There's even that second stalk
that I even forget
that that's even there sometimes
because I don't even see it.
Yeah.
The one behind this left stalk.
Well, that's the adjuster, right?
Right.
Yeah.
But there's like a whole thing there
you never see, you know?
In doing everything on the screen
to make things simple,
they make things way more complicated.
Like if you have to adjust your mirrors,
Jesus Christ.
Right.
You got to get in there
and do-do
and then lift for the left
and lift for the right.
No.
Stop.
You're making me think too much.
When my car,
I don't even have to look at it.
Yeah.
I just reach over,
I press the button
and I can adjust it.
I just do it real quick, easy.
It's better.
Physical buttons are better.
Always.
Always.
Slide to reverse.
The worst is when the car has
their volume knob
and adjustments on the screen.
Ugh.
Terrible.
Am I touching up volume?
You want to be able to do it
where you can
keep looking at the road.
Just reach over,
grab the knob,
turn it to the left,
turn it to the right.
You know?
Volume.
We know how to do it.
Temperature.
Easy.
Button.
Yeah.
Button, go high.
Button, go low.
Come on.
Just make the buttons look sexier
or prettier.
Porsche knows how to do it.
Porsche's got all buttons.
They figured it out.
I looked in their interior
and I'm like,
that's a better interior.
They know how to do it.
They've been doing cars forever.
Everybody tries to, like,
reinvent the wheel.
Yeah.
Some parts, like,
blinkers.
Click, click, click, click.
Keep it like that.
Don't be putting it
on the steering wheel
like an asshole.
And companies are coming back to it.
Also, look at the latest
MacBook Pros.
They're bringing back
the SD card reader.
They're bringing back
all the ports
that they got rid of.
Oh, are they really?
Yeah, but then you hear
these rumors that the iPhone
is going to get rid of buttons
and it's, you know,
it's going to have zero buttons.
The whole thing is...
What disturbs me
is going to all wireless charging.
Ugh.
Like, why are you doing that?
That's the worst.
You know it's slower.
That doesn't make any sense.
Like, just making that
everyone has to have
a wireless port somewhere.
Everyone has cords, man.
Mm-hmm.
Keep the cords.
Just go to USB-C.
You see that?
I saw a loop of this yesterday.
Yeah.
It's like a new...
Prototype.
Yeah.
Who knows what the
sound's going to be.
It's going to have
the new USB-C port,
which is the...
This is the Ultra?
Yeah.
It's basically the same,
but I guess that's like
the Ultra watch, I think,
probably with the titanium
outside, maybe.
So what is different?
The screen border
is a lot smaller.
It has a USB-C port now,
and the volume rocker
is not two buttons anymore.
It's one long button.
Oh.
And the mute button,
the clicky switch to mute
that never works
is now a button
that's going to be used
for like an action button,
I guess.
So how will you mute it now?
You probably hold that down
for a second or so.
Yeah, that makes sense.
Yeah.
Look at this top comment.
I will never use an iPhone.
Android people are hilarious.
They are so in a cult.
They really don't...
They're like,
we're against the machine, man.
Literally, your phone is used
by more humans
than any other phone on Earth.
I sent him photos
to a group chat last night,
and half a second group chat
without the Android person
so they can get the photos
uncompressed and they look good.
Because in that group chat,
they're all fucked.
They can't see the photos.
I don't know if you know that.
Oh.
If you have an Android person
in your iPhone group chat,
they get the photos good,
that Android will get them,
but everybody on the phone
will not get them good.
Why?
Oh, because it compresses it
because of the text.
Because it has to go to the SMS
and then it goes to everybody else.
You have to leave them out,
make a new group chat,
be like, sorry.
Is that why it always says
message failed to send,
and then I'll send it
like 10 more times,
and people are like,
why does he send me this 10 times?
Because it keeps on saying it failed.
Yeah.
So it's like if you text message
from an iPhone,
it's inferior.
If you text message an image,
which text?
Not SMS.
Not trying to talk shit
on my Androids,
but they'll see it perfectly fine
and be like,
what are you talking about?
I see it looks great on my phone.
Look, I'll send you photos
that look great.
But it gets compressed to the iPhone.
But yeah, when it goes
from that Android
to the network again,
it'll be dog shit
on those fucking Androids.
Or on iPhones, I'm sorry.
Especially video.
Especially video.
It's very frustrating
that you can't just go
back and forth,
that they've created
this walled garden with Apple.
Because one thing
that Android does
that's really good
is they're always the first
with foldables.
They're the first
with crazy Zoom lenses.
They're the first with...
They figure out everything first.
They have way better
screen real estate.
There's much more screen
to an Android phone
than there is to an iPhone.
You know that stupid fucking...
What is that thing in the top
that nobody really cares about?
The island.
The island.
Get the fuck out of here
with your island.
Who's using that island?
Android has better fake moons.
