That was a reference to the TV show Star Trek. That doesn't really have any Star Trek. Shrek, Star Trek. That doesn't really have anything to do with this. Although this is William Shatner, who became famous playing Captain Kirk in Star Trek and has since then become a national beloved hero for some reason. He's just a likable guy, one of the most likable people on earth. He is. But he told this disgusting story the other day. Now I'm opening on Broadway, one man show, and I'm doing another and all of a sudden I have to go. In fact, I'm going to use the past tense. I have gone open night on Broadway. I crack. So I said, all right, there's been a technical difficulty. And I, I'll be. And I went up and I washed up again. I came back down and finished the show and it was very successful. He crapped his pants, apparently on stage the opening night of his Broadway show. Oh, really? He's been in multiple Broadway shows this recently as a 90 year older and furthermore. Oh, he's secretly friends with Mr. Spock off the set, but Sulu was a pain in the ass. God, that sounded like something when you ride public transit and they tell you next stop. Yeah. So his story is he was on stage for the opening night and he actually defecated his pants. I get it. That's a good one, Katie. How long did he have that one in the holster? That's a good one. 30 seconds. Yeah, I was waiting. Anyways, we were going to go with embarrassing things you've done, like on stage or in public. I've never done that, thank God. But I have two that stand out in my mind. The first one is like not on stage. It was in a big college class and I had to do a presentation and for some reason. And this was a great lesson in life. I'm glad. I hate to think about it because it makes me feel pain when I think about it. It was a great lesson in life. For some reason. I thought I could wing this presentation without much prep and it was horrible. And I was well aware, like two minutes into this half hour talk that I was not ready. I hadn't prepared. I should have prepared. I wasn't. I wasn't doing well. People were. You know, you can just tell by the audience if you've ever been on stage. You can tell by the audience when they're not paying attention or digging it or they smell the fear. Yeah. And it's. You get this. That's such a terrible feeling. It is. But I was. It was a good thing. I'm glad I did it when I was 23 years old. You can't always wing it. You can't always wing it. Even if you're pretty good at winging it like I am. You can't always wing it. Wing it. Bring it. We had a T shirt that said that at one point. We did still have it. Yes. It's got an eagle wing. Patriotic eagle flying around. Boy, I didn't that day. It's funny. Funny how things like that stick out in your mind. I can picture. It was my. It was actually my professor's wife who I really like because I was dating their daughter. I liked mom and dad and then he was my. My advisor and his wife was in the class and she could tell I hadn't prepared. And it was just. Oh, it was just devastating. Oh, no. The girlfriend's parents witnessed this. Yeah. Yeah. That was tough. Yeah. She lost her virginity to me. They can't have me be the guy that just up there rambling on. God, this is a sordid tale. Well, my one other was a radio event. I was the emcee for this fashion show. And whoever had put the cards together that I was supposed to read. You get a stack of cards and one girl would go up there at the time at a time in the different outfits and the cards were out of order. And I. And I didn't have a good view of the stage or whatever. So I'd be reading the obviously wrong outfit. And in one in particular, this chick goes up in her bikini who ended up being my girlfriend later that summer. But she goes up in her bikini and saying, winter wear is the best way to combat snow. As you can see here, these boots will get you. And she's standing there in a bikini. What? And the crowd was like booing. And it got worse as it went along. People were booing and laughing, throwing back their heads and laughter pointing at me. Oh, it was horrible. Look at this idiot. The bikini. Exactly. Jackass on stage. Oh, God, that was horrible. Well, that reminds me of so mad when I walked up there. Who the f. You know, I can only imagine. Oh. Oh, yeah. What was that event that we were forced to don bicycle riding gear? Was it like the first year of the Tour de California? I don't know. We must have been lower in our career to have done that, though. Oh, yeah, it was early. They sent us into a room to get changed. We had to wear bike shorts and bike shirts. Skin tight, like I'm a Tour de France guy style. And they're totally the wrong size. And we had to walk out in front of a big group of people. We were like modeling them. Yeah. Oh, that was terrible. Look like a sausage speaking for myself in an ill fitting casing. Oh, I hated that a lot. I'm glad there are no pictures or videos. If that had happened now, there would be 20 different YouTube videos that people put that like us to music and. And, oh, yeah, barnyard sounds. What'd you say, Michael? Oh, using AI with those. Yeah, that'd be awesome. Oh, yeah, go ahead if you want. You know, it's funny. That was. Right. Well, because that was early in our careers where we would, like, say yes to everything and be super nice and cooperative because it is such an incredible slog to get anywhere in the radio business, podcasting business, now, both. But I think it was. I got home that night and I thought, no, I'm going to start telling people f off. Or at least just saying no. This is ridiculous. No, people don't have our best interests at heart. They're just using us. So. No, not a dancing monkey. No, exactly. Yeah. Not a good look. Luckily, Katie has never embarrassed herself in public, so we don't have to know. I wish that was true. Yeah, it was a mistake, but a stupid mistake. I used to be on a TV show and I was sick as a dog. The taping day. And we would do three episodes in a row. So I would do an episode, go change. Then we, you know, would shoot for the next week. And so in order to suppress my cough, I had a bottle of Robitussin underneath down by my feet that I would just like take a swig out of. You know, I didn't. What was the show? Housewives of Marin County. That was it. That was it. Yeah. And so halfway through, like the third episode, I'm like, I don't. I feel off. You know, whatever. My producer comes up to me, he's like, are you hammered? Like, what are you? And I was like, no, I've just been. I mean, I've been taking swigs, aerobics. He's like, you idiot. You can absolutely get drunk on cough. I had no idea you get drunk on cough syrup at all. Oh, yeah. You're sucking down the purple dry. I was sucking down more or less. So you were noticeably hammered knowing it Notice. Well, yeah. I mean, I. In. I mean, I was probably. I was. I had a fever, and, like, I was just not okay. I was telling everybody to just stay away from me. And so I couldn't tell if it was, like, the fever or what. But he was like, dude, you are. You're messed up. And I was like, oh, boy. I have never. I. That was probably the lowest, most mortified I'd been because there was a studio full of people. And I'm just. For some reason that when Joe yelled piss on Atlanta in front of that giant crowd. Oh, my. My God. Oh, that was. That was really, really early in our careers. And we were all fired up at some rally for. It was a giant New Year's Eve celebration. It was like a. Their version of a ball drop for New Year's Eve. And you were saying. We were in Charlotte, and you were saying, they say Charlotte's going to be the next Atlanta. Well, piss on Atlanta. I must have been fueled by the grape. And we were an AC station. I mean, you didn't talk like that. Yeah, they're kids in the minivan station, right? Oh, that did not go over well. Hilarious. Everybody acting like that was. Oh, no. Oh, no, this is bad. You know, we talked about. Katie's talking about getting drunk and cough medicine. I also did that as a child in preschool. I was about five years old. And I got a hold of the stuff because it taped like grape. And so I guess I was drinking it as a kid and did that. Scissor up Michael. Both of y' all doing the scissor. So the teacher calls my mom and says, we don't know what's wrong with your son. He keeps laughing and laughing and laughing. And it turns out I got a buzz on. There's nothing wrong. They take me to the doctor. Doctor says, your child is drunk. And then, oh, my God. Yeah. That is so unlikely. Your child is drunk. Yeah. He really lectured my mom, according to my mom, about, you know, the dangers of medicine and alcohol in it. Did you take it to school? Yes, I took it to school. So he's just hitting it, hitting it through class. I thought it was delicious, you know, and there's only way on one way I can put up with this. Boring. That's another hit of the scissor. Yeah. Special juice. You're going through the kids but one by one. And you. Here's what my problem is with you. Your crayon pack in your little turns. Aggressive drunk. At least I was a happy drunk. Yeah, there you go. You got mucus coming out of your nose. What's the matter with you? Well, I guess that's it then. The space hamster flew his hot air balloon all the way to the bottom of the ocean.
