Chrissy D
What's up, everybody? Welcome to another episode of History Hyenas. I'm Chrissy D. With me as always, Yanni P. And now we have a pig in the pen, Joe DeRosa with this new special. I never promised you a rose garden. Crushing it on YouTube. One of the best specials we've seen. And I. And that's. That takes a lot for me to say it because obviously we've always known Joe's comedy is amazing, but 90% of this special is zoomed in very close to his pig face. And even I'm saying I loved it and I could stop watching.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, what a close up. You.
Chrissy D
Yeah, well, I'm not from this industry.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, everybody's saying that. Like, why is it zoomed in?
Chrissy D
Yeah, it's called a close up, idiots.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, it's on purpose.
Chrissy D
Yeah, I know, but I liked it. The intimacy of it all. Yeah. It made me feel like I'm a trans woman.
Giannis Papas
You always like to do some artsy. Like even I remember your last. He was standing on some little fucking thing. Like a little tiny thing. You were in a suit.
Chrissy D
Those were his legs. Yeah, yeah, those were his tiny little legs.
Giannis Papas
Tried to do like A Frank Sinatra kind of Rat Pack kind of look.
Joe DeRosa
No, no, that was. That was. That's funny, man.
Chrissy D
That.
Joe DeRosa
That was based on Night Gallery, the old Rod Serling show. If you pull up.
Giannis Papas
That's obscure. I don't know what that is.
Joe DeRosa
If you pull up a clip of. Just type in Rod Serling, Night Gallery. You'll see what I mean. So Night Gallery, this is. This is a cool show. So Rod Serling is the. Okay, go to the gallery.
Chrissy D
See?
Joe DeRosa
No, no, right down. Right down to the. Yep, that one. See that?
Giannis Papas
Yeah, that's what you did.
Joe DeRosa
So Night Gallery was Rod Serling show after the Twilight Zone. And it was an anthology show every week. It was different stories, but it was more horror based. And the Night Gallery was the framing of the show. So he'd be like, welcome to the Night Gallery. And he'd walk around. There were all these. These morbid paintings. And the painting would launch the story. The painting would have an image that represented the story. So I was like, such a fruit.
Chrissy D
I'm like, why would you just watch in the Phillies? Yeah, why are you watching Night Gallery? You should be watching my. You homo.
Giannis Papas
You like to do things. You like to do things you like.
Chrissy D
He does.
Giannis Papas
Yeah. Your next one's gonna be, like, in an Atari console.
Joe DeRosa
That's. It's too. I'm doing. All my tour posters are Atari box art. But it's. The video game thing has been so done even that I'm like.
Chrissy D
One thing I'll say about Joe, I've known Joe a long time. You hit on the head more than the most of my friends. He does exactly what he wants to do.
Giannis Papas
He does what he does.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. That's why I'm nowhere.
Giannis Papas
Oh, you're doing great.
Chrissy D
Oh, doing great. That's why he took the bus here to do our podcast.
Joe DeRosa
I was walking. I tried to walk. It was too high.
Chrissy D
No, this is.
Giannis Papas
This is how I know Joe's doing good. It's very simple. It's observation that I've had about society, the people who are doing well and have more money. The more money you have, the less socks you wear.
Chrissy D
Right?
Giannis Papas
Joe has no socks on right now.
Joe DeRosa
That's wearing no shows, baby.
Giannis Papas
Oh, those are no shows.
Chrissy D
Those are no shows. Which means. Well, that's. Well, that halfway there. Your theory is good, but that's because he doesn't have any money because he's in mortgage debt.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Chrissy D
He owns too many homes.
Giannis Papas
Yeah. How many homes do you own? You. What would you call that?
Chrissy D
What?
Giannis Papas
A real estate pig?
Chrissy D
Oh, real estate. Pig.
Giannis Papas
You're like a mogul, but you're not a mogul.
Joe DeRosa
No, I'm not a movie. I'm joking.
Chrissy D
Yeah, Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I have two homes.
Giannis Papas
You're like the reason for the 2008 crisis.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I'm bringing it back.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Bringing it back.
Chrissy D
Chase bank is like. Who'd you give us a mortgage to? The guy with this Rose Garden special. I thought you got from Nightcap. He can't pay it. Look at his tour.
Giannis Papas
MC SandW.
Chrissy D
Why you give that guy money? Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Didn't you buy a house, like, in Pennsylvania, and then now you're in Soldier. You wanted to use that as your workout spot.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, I got. I. Yeah, I have a place in pa. Where? Near where I grew up. And then I. I've got a place in Austin.
Giannis Papas
See, because when you bought that house, I thought that meant you were giving up and quitting because you were going home.
Chrissy D
No, no, it's done more now.
Giannis Papas
Yeah. And that's. And then I turn around and you're doing more. I'm like, I thought you were. I thought you were quitting. Whoever moves to Westchester, Penn buys a house.
Joe DeRosa
Well, no, the pig and I talk about this a lot.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Chris and I talk about this a lot over the years. Look, I just think, like, there's. Look, with the algorithm thing, the thing we're all suffering and whatever with now. It always upset me with comics. You and I have talked about this, too. It's like we had a chance. Everybody had a chance, I guess, but particularly comics, because these networks that we catered to all collapsed. There was this world we lived in where it was like, unless the person. Unless this one person at TRUTV says yes, you don't get a TV show unless this one person at Comedy Central. How many times did you go into those places and pitch. And seven people were like, we love it. We're doing this. And then, sorry, yeah. The guy you never see that lives behind that door said no. And when those all kind of collapsed and there was that great, like, sort of, you know, it wasn't an exodus. Everybody got fired. I feel like we had a chance to strike, and then, unfortunately, everybody immediately started going, well, now it's the algorithm. And now we're treating the algorithm like it's the guy behind the fucking door.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
So it's very hard, is my point, to not feel like the need to constantly deliver, deliver, deliver. But I don't know, man. I feel like if any. Any opportunity, you have to create a little bit of absence and a little Bit of distance is. Is not a bad thing.
Chrissy D
Go away a little bit type thing for the fans.
Joe DeRosa
I mean, look, dude, I'm out promoting this special and I was talking to Ari and a few other comics that, that I feel like, have a really good understanding of. Like, here's how you promote something as a comic. And people were saying to me, you got to be careful, though. Do this, this, this. We got to be careful. You don't want to do Internet fatigue. That's a thing now.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Now the reverse or the inverse of the algorithm.
Chrissy D
Less is more now.
Joe DeRosa
So it's just like, dude, what are you going to do at the end of the day? And even if you feed the algorithm, there is no guarantee it'll work. It's like saying, well, my special is going to be a hit because it's on Netflix. You don't know that. It could fucking get buried. There's no guarantee. So fuck it, man. Do. Do things the way you feel comfortable and put your all into it and hope for the best and, you know, I don't know. I don't fucking know. You know?
Chrissy D
Well, that's what I'm saying. Your special is being talked about. Everyone's like, I love Joe special. It's good because it's just like, you know, and that.
Giannis Papas
And I've got a good buzz with comics.
Chrissy D
With comics.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Which is, which is, which is. Which is a relief socially.
Joe DeRosa
Yes, it is.
Giannis Papas
That's always relief.
Chrissy D
Yeah. When all the comments, like, it was good. And if you look at all the comments, if you go to Joe's YouTube page, it's on your YouTube, right? Main landing page at Joe to Rosa comedy. Yeah. Your. Your. All the comments are like, this was great. I mean, dude, the amount. What you realize when you go to our YouTube comments too is like, how many people are like, I was literally going to end my life until I found your comedy. You're like, jesus Christ, I should have ended your life during the special. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
You're like, I thought, I'm trying to. I might end my life.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
And you're helping save people.
Giannis Papas
If I clicked. If I clicked on this profile and I did. No joke. Go back up a little bit more. I would not think this was a comedy page.
Chrissy D
No.
Giannis Papas
I would think I was about to get some fudgeing lecture.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
About gender theory or about equality.
Chrissy D
Look at that guy. Now some video I'm going to have to watch about why Hamas is actually good. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I mean.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Did you pick the most stern looking photo to put up there?
Chrissy D
That picture does look good.
Joe DeRosa
That's a picture from a book. My friend's book.
Chrissy D
You can't even read. No, I don't know.
Joe DeRosa
I just like that picture.
Chrissy D
It does look good. It actually does look good. And it fits that frame nice. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
The. I can't believe I'm.
Giannis Papas
You know what I love about Joe is we can text each other when we do something that makes the other one sick.
Chrissy D
Right.
Giannis Papas
And if I do something, he'll leave me a long message telling me how I'm just a disgrace of a human.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Recently, I went on one of his stories.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
And I almost threw my phone through the window.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Really?
Joe DeRosa
Why?
Giannis Papas
Yeah, because you said you were working on that new. New.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Mad I got mad.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
You were dming.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
He goes, I'm working on that new, new y'.
Joe DeRosa
All. I was joking.
Giannis Papas
I know, but it's just I wanted to say, Joe, you're a pig. You're not a rapper.
Chrissy D
Yeah. You did you.
Giannis Papas
I did me. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
It was from the hyenas account. And I said, which of the morons am I speaking to right now?
Giannis Papas
We are two retards.
Chrissy D
We are two morons.
Joe DeRosa
I mean, this show, there's no.
Giannis Papas
He goes, yeah, look at him. You had plastic surgery, I think.
Chrissy D
No, I didn't.
Joe DeRosa
That's the second you got him in that face.
Chrissy D
What are you talking about?
Giannis Papas
He is someone who's gonna get it, though, right?
Chrissy D
You're gonna hold on. Just told us he got hair transplant headsets and he got surgery on his eyes. I'.
Joe DeRosa
Do you have eye surgery?
Chrissy D
Well, he said from old scar.
Giannis Papas
I never thought about that, though. Are you going to hold on?
Chrissy D
Yeah, I will.
Giannis Papas
You're going to.
Chrissy D
I'm a big, big, big, big, big believer in no unnecessary surgery.
Joe DeRosa
You're a lot, dude. Daddy Kimmel is going to call you into his office and say, you better get that face fixed.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Do you want. You want to. Exactly. You want to do that? You need to lift those cheeks up.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, yeah. You want your own show in this dying industry?
Chrissy D
Is that what you want? Yeah. Yeah. Want to be able to pay your mortgage and get through this? Then you. I know just the guy is going to do it. You got to tell me. Talk to fatty. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't.
Joe DeRosa
Wait. Daddy Kimmel is going to put you on a diet.
Chrissy D
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. It's happening.
Joe DeRosa
That's going to be great.
Chrissy D
Whatever the fucking.
Joe DeRosa
I didn't want to call the channel Joe Torosa comedy. I just want to call it Joe Derosa. But My Instagram was already that. So they. They were like, make it uniform. But I actually didn't want to call it Joe because I did want to.
Giannis Papas
Put on the official Joe to Rosa comedy, because there's a lot of imitators out there.
Joe DeRosa
You never know.
Giannis Papas
You never know.
Chrissy D
You never know.
Giannis Papas
Now you want people to know it's the official Joe to Rosa.
Joe DeRosa
What are you gonna do?
Giannis Papas
So, you know, if you go to one of the other. There's so many people out there claiming to be Joe to Rosa. I want to know the official one thing about what? You can break his balls, but I.
Joe DeRosa
Can'T balance out the nice things with the. With the.
Giannis Papas
Not a great special, but the official. It's a little much. The only thing, it's. What are you. What are you a Kennedy? The official Joe Rogan. There's so many jokes.
Joe DeRosa
I know. There's too many jokes.
Chrissy D
The only thing that genuinely upset me, that Joe did that when he. He picked up and left New York. He doesn't have a New York residency. And for guys like us who are native New Yorkers, it just. We don't understand why people do.
Joe DeRosa
I just talked about this on Joke World.
Chrissy D
Now. Now you're calling me a hack.
Joe DeRosa
No, no. He said, why do New York and LA guys get so mad about you moving down? People moving down to Austin.
Chrissy D
We talked about.
Joe DeRosa
Exactly.
Chrissy D
Yeah, Well, I get. I just don't. I guess, because I'm from New York. I know you weren't born and raised in. Couldn't imagine not at least having, like, something here.
Joe DeRosa
But you don't have anything here.
Chrissy D
What do you mean? I'm here every day.
Joe DeRosa
But. Yeah, but you don't live here.
Chrissy D
Yeah, but I live within 45 minutes. I could see the. I could see the skyline.
Joe DeRosa
Talking about what?
Chrissy D
He lives in New York.
Joe DeRosa
He lives in the state of New York.
Chrissy D
Right, But I'm saying, I mean, he live. He could.
Joe DeRosa
He could.
Chrissy D
He's still like, I'm in the New York area. I'm still like, you know, I'm in the New York.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, but.
Chrissy D
But I couldn't leave state lines.
Joe DeRosa
I won't, I won't. I won't talk about your money. I mean, this here, I'm being respectful.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I won't talk about your money, but I will say this. You were financially in a position to create the exact life you wanted for New York. I was not in a position to do what you just did. And I also don't have a family, so moving to an area like you moved to alone here would have not been good. That's why I got the place in pa. Yeah. PA is near Philly. It's where I'm from. Whatever. If I'm there by myself to get, like, the fucking headspace I need. Whatever. My plan originally was I was going to keep my apartment here. I was going to live in PA and I was going to go back and forth. But then I started going down to Austin. I was like, you know, I don't know, man. This just feels more right to me right now. I didn't feel there was anything left I could do in New York.
Giannis Papas
Everyone's sober here, right? Nobody's doing coke anymore.
Chrissy D
Our manager is.
Giannis Papas
He's like, I need greener pastures. He goes back to, ah, everyone's here is. Yeah, I live it on the edge.
Joe DeRosa
No, nobody's doing it in Austin either. Everybody's.
Chrissy D
Everybody's. I know, right?
Joe DeRosa
Everybody's taking Dr. Administrative.
Chrissy D
Everybody. Every white guy there is beat red now.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, but. But no, I just. I get it. Austin, to me, felt like there was an opportunity to go into a new scene, to fill in an area in that scene where there weren't a ton of guys like me, you know what I mean? Right at the stage I was at, and just kind of do something new, man. And it works. It's a bitch getting between there and PA it's obviously way harder than going between New York and pa, But.
Giannis Papas
But you're an apartment guy. Let's be honest.
Chrissy D
His apartment in Austin's beautiful.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, you're an apartment guy.
Giannis Papas
Because if you have a house and you're a single guy, right? Like, what are you doing in the house? You wait. The only reason you should have a house like that is if you're retreating to go read and write a novel.
Joe DeRosa
Well, my house. Yeah, My house in PA is. Is. It is one side of a twin.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
But it's beautiful. But it was built in 1915. Yeah. It's all renovated. It's dope. It's a pad. Yeah, it's a pad.
Giannis Papas
Nice.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. If I knew anybody out there, I'd say, bring them.
Chrissy D
Bring.
Giannis Papas
So you didn't like it out there?
Joe DeRosa
No, I like it out there.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I still get the place. Yeah.
Chrissy D
So most of your times in Austin, though, now?
Joe DeRosa
Well, most of my times in Austin because the scene has been so good to me down there and. And. And everybody's been so welcome. I mean, it feels like family. So I'm down there. I can do as many shows as I want. If I need to work on stuff, I can chill If I want. It's a great city. You know, I had a girlfriend down there for. For on and off, nine months, like.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, I saw.
Joe DeRosa
It was a life down there, you know.
Chrissy D
Right. What was the message?
Giannis Papas
Is it off air or on air? You did. You doing a bid?
Joe DeRosa
No, no, no. I had a girlfriend.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, but you messaged me. You left a voice message saying you were doing a bid.
Chrissy D
Oh, doing a bit.
Joe DeRosa
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Giannis Papas
Okay.
Joe DeRosa
That was a callback to what we used to do.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I got that.
Joe DeRosa
That was what we used to do, Giannis and I.
Giannis Papas
You're good. You're good.
Chrissy D
I know, I know. For 24 days you got the crime.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Did the crime.
Joe DeRosa
Due to time, but explain what it is to the audience.
Chrissy D
Yeah, so. But what it is is when you have unprotected sex with a girl and then you have to wait, basically two to 24 days for your STD symptoms to pop up or pregnancy.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, Every. Yeah. Every pamphlet at the free clinic used to say, two to 22 days.
Chrissy D
Yes. That's what it is.
Giannis Papas
You're doing a two to 24 day bid.
Joe DeRosa
Anytime Giannis or I slipped up, we'd hit each other.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, dude.
Giannis Papas
Do it again.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Go to bed.
Chrissy D
We're now. We're now.
Joe DeRosa
And that's my favorite thing.
Chrissy D
So hard.
Joe DeRosa
And then the one day we were talking and you go. You go. You do it a bit. I go. I don't even know how to live on the outside anymore.
Giannis Papas
I don't know how to live on the outside. He's a short shake with that.
Chrissy D
Are you doing a bid right now?
Joe DeRosa
No. No.
Giannis Papas
You were always in and out of prison.
Chrissy D
Yeah, I was here.
Giannis Papas
I was always doing a bit.
Chrissy D
He's.
Giannis Papas
He's what you call a repeat offender.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, but I. But. But.
Chrissy D
Never got.
Giannis Papas
Never got burned.
Chrissy D
Never got burned, either.
Joe DeRosa
Never got burned.
Chrissy D
You never got burned either? No, I couldn't believe it. No.
Giannis Papas
What are you talking about?
Chrissy D
Well, I mean, chlamydia, but that goes away. I thought you meant. I do.
Joe DeRosa
Many pigs.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
I mean, that's the definite. That's the definition of getting burned.
Chrissy D
Get herpes or get aids? No, no. Anything. Anything. Chlamydia's just a strange.
Joe DeRosa
I never got chlamydia. I never got anything. I can't believe it. I can't believe that I've. I've been inside. I've never been shanked.
Chrissy D
So then it has to be.
Joe DeRosa
I can't believe I've never gotten.
Chrissy D
You never got shanked? It has to be Then something with your immune system. It has to be. He has to have that longevity. Talking about Jesse, you must have it. You must be able to kill it off. You had to have come into contact.
Giannis Papas
No, you know what I think it is? I think the two levels of pig. You. I know you guys both. You're two levels of pig. Right? All right. He's a. He's a more. He has more discretion.
Chrissy D
Joe does.
Giannis Papas
Joe has. He has to have a conversation.
Chrissy D
Right.
Giannis Papas
The girl's gotta have a band or. Yeah.
Chrissy D
Lately. The girl has to have a. Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Or a. Something intriguing. Yeah, yeah. Like Joe's got. Oh, you like comic books. And then he's into. Or she's got a nose eating out.
Chrissy D
Right?
Giannis Papas
Yeah, you are.
Chrissy D
I just go, you're a buffet guy. I just go down to the DMV and I'm like, I'll take you.
Giannis Papas
You're an 800 pound American suburban slop at a Chinese buffet.
Joe DeRosa
I mean, slop.
Chrissy D
Just.
Giannis Papas
I put food on your plate.
Joe DeRosa
You know what describes Chris best? Chris will order pizza in Iowa.
Giannis Papas
Yes.
Chrissy D
Oh, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
He'll order pizza where he's got no business. Order pizza.
Giannis Papas
Exactly.
Joe DeRosa
And eat the whole pizza.
Chrissy D
That's great. Yeah. I've eaten more pizzas in the back of a Ramada near an airport in like O. Oklahoma than anyone you've ever met.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
One place for you, you know that is where in the program. Yes.
Chrissy D
I got to be in the program. In the program.
Giannis Papas
In the program.
Chrissy D
Well, now. But now it's good because, you know, now like being, you know, long term relationship. Now it's like if you get. There are no more bids now it's like you get a little pain in your dick. You're like, that's you. It's almost. You feel a relief. You're like, that cannot be an std. It's probable cancer, but it cannot be std. And you actually feel calmer about it because you're like, I'll deal with that. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Chrissy D
Guilt and the shame. I didn't realize that all these years. It was the guilt and the shame. I wasn't worried about getting a disease. It was the guilt and the shame of it all.
Joe DeRosa
I'm. I'm shifted from. From my relation, my relationship that I had in a good way, but it shifted me a little. It's not the same.
Chrissy D
Meaning what? Like you don't want to pig as much you want to settle down. I won't go.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Chrissy D
I won't.
Joe DeRosa
I won't get too deep into this because it's not the type of pod to do it.
Chrissy D
But.
Joe DeRosa
But I talked about it on Lauren Compton's show for. We talked about it for an hour, but I was like.
Giannis Papas
While you were staring at her tits and wanted to bury your face.
Chrissy D
Yeah, everybody.
Joe DeRosa
She told me. She goes, I only like guys that have guts and they're out of shape. I don't want a man that tries. I was like, where the were you five years? Yeah.
Chrissy D
Jesus Christ. Did you see my comedy special?
Joe DeRosa
Jesus.
Chrissy D
Yeah, you can tell.
Joe DeRosa
You're killing me.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Is that. Is her boy. Is her husband just a fat mess?
Joe DeRosa
He owns Terry Blacks, I think.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Anyway, she. I'd have never seen him, but she said. She. She told me on. On air. She goes, I don't like a guy that goes to the gym.
Chrissy D
Oh, great.
Joe DeRosa
But anyway. No, but I was telling her. I was just like. It's weird. Like, once, like, I'm 47, this was the first time I ever truly was in love, which I know is late in life, but it is what it is. And the first time I ever really loved somebody. I loved people, but you know what I mean? Like, this was the real deal. And once you do that, it changes the way sexes and feels and all that stuff, which I never knew.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
And then. So then when you're single, it's. I don't know. It's. It's. It's. It feels different. It's just like. It's. I don't know, it just feels different. It's. You know, I'd like to be. I'd like to get back into a relationship.
Giannis Papas
But no kids for you ever in the future.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not interested.
Giannis Papas
There's only one room. There's room for only one kid in your household, and that's you.
Joe DeRosa
That's me.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not interested. I mean, you guys love it, but, you know, I don't know. I see a lot of people that don't. Yeah. I don't know.
Chrissy D
I'll tell you, you got to really.
Joe DeRosa
Want it from an early age.
Chrissy D
It's not conducive to our types of career as well. Like, you know, you have to make a lot of decisions, you know, like, you don't really do. You got, you know, you can't go on the road as. I mean, you can go on the road and you can do anything you want, but it comes with a lot of mental, you know, kind of taxing costs where you're like, okay, I can go on the road and make a lot more money and do this and do that. But you're like, but now I'm gonna miss everything in my kid's life.
Giannis Papas
I am glad, though, that I have friends who don't have kids. Because when you have kids and a family, you have so little time to socialize. And I have friends who. I have friends who have kids. And you can't just call them anytime, you know, because they're always busy. But when you have friends who don't have kids, you can call at one in the morning and they're just available.
Chrissy D
Yeah, they're just like, I'm ready.
Giannis Papas
I know if I, if I, if I'm going through something, I'm gonna call Joe because I know Joe will be available. I'll call him at 2 in the morning. If I'm having a massive anxiety attack. I know he's up somewhere at some bar trying to fucking finger blast them. 5.
Joe DeRosa
But that's, that's, there's a, There's a flip side to the coin, though, because I'm everybody's. I've said this before, like I'm everybody's dog walk friend. I'm everybody's dog walk friend.
Giannis Papas
It's good to put it.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. All my married friends, my friends with kids, they call me. Hey, what's up? Just walking the dog. So anyway, and I'm like, they get back to the house, all right, well, gotta go. I'm going inside. I'm like, hey, you, man. But what about your.
Giannis Papas
When you need me? But that, that's not a. It's just that. That's how it goes when you're married. You just, you don't have time.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, I know, but it's a little.
Chrissy D
Bit of a double standard, right?
Joe DeRosa
A little bit of a. It's, it's kind of like the guy that gets a girlfriend in the, in, in the group.
Giannis Papas
I think you look and then he.
Joe DeRosa
And he disappears from the group.
Giannis Papas
It's different.
Joe DeRosa
And then they break up and he comes back and you're like, oh, now you got time?
Chrissy D
Well, but it's different.
Giannis Papas
It's different because that he's choosing like a relationship. But when you have kids, you have to be a present. Fathers.
Chrissy D
You can't just, like, there's a lot.
Giannis Papas
Of time walk to the bathroom and talk, right?
Chrissy D
There's a lot. Because there's a lot of times where like, you know, like, like you've called or like other friends have called and like, I want to pick up the phone, but I'm in the car with the whole family or I'm with the kids. And then I'm like, I can only call you back. And then if I'm. And if I got to get off the phone with a friend to go back in the house, it's because I see my family waiting there. It's like, I have to go back to that.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, I get that.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
It's almost like you got to accept the rules that you're the friendship kuma.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
And I can only call you.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Can't call my home.
Joe DeRosa
I.
Chrissy D
If you ever really needed us, because I'm not available, you would have to say is, hey, dude, I'm really in a pinch. I need you. And then I would say, okay, let me get my family to wait five.
Joe DeRosa
Minutes, and I'll put a positive. The positive side of it is, which I didn't realize till now, is you look at it as, hey, man, they got 10 free minutes, and they're choosing to spend it with you.
Chrissy D
There you go.
Joe DeRosa
You know, like, yeah, that's.
Giannis Papas
That. I think with a family, that's more accurate.
Chrissy D
I only have a couple of friends now that I speak to that don't have kids, and you're one of them. Them.
Joe DeRosa
Right.
Chrissy D
Because I don't have. I would love to talk them all, but I. I truly don't have the time.
Giannis Papas
I put the phone. To be honest with you, I put the phone down when I'm home. I don't. I just. I don't.
Chrissy D
You have my spawn to text for eight, nine hours.
Giannis Papas
I. I'm away from my phone.
Joe DeRosa
That's good. And you should. And if you want to teach your kids to do that, you got to lead by example.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
You know what I mean?
Chrissy D
The other day. The other day, we just moved into our home, and the other day, I was like. Had my phone on me, and, like, everybody was there. My whole family was there. My mom was there, and everybody was there. You know, my dad lives in Florida. And then Jasmine was like, why do you have your phone on you? I'm like, I don't know. Just a case of emergency. Emergency. She's like, what emergency? Everyone that you need, your family were all here in front of you. So just. She was like, put the phone in another room. And then I did. And then it's like the first 30, 40 minutes, you're a little bit like, where's the phone? Whatever. Maybe I should. Your brain starts to play tricks on you. Maybe. What if my dad has an emergency? I need him. And then all these things. And then after, like, an hour, you're like, oh, my God, I'M so freaked because you know me, I'm always talking about life insurance. Yeah, I love, I'm telling you, I use this place, select quote and I got the life insurance for the family because you got to get life insurance guys.
Giannis Papas
That's what I do. I like doing ads for things that we use and yeah, everyone should get.
Chrissy D
It to be responsible because here's the thing. Select quote makes life insurance very simple even if it's the first time everything. A lot of people don't want to think about life insurance. You want to think about your life's going to end because one day your life's going to end and I'm going to write you a poem.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, write me another poem. And that gives life its meaning. So just be in the moment.
Chrissy D
Be in the moment now. Select quote takes the guesswork out of finding the right life insurance policy. You don't have to sort through all these. That's the problem too there's, it's so confusing when they try to sell you the life. Because life insurance, they're salesmen and saleswomen and sales babies right? They sell like and so they can this or that and you're. But select quote takes all that out. Select quote is you get one of their licensed agent and they help shift through and they just find the right policy for you and whatever they present to you, they've already done all the work and looking into it and you can pretty much trust that. These are top rated insurance companies. Comp in companies. Insurance companies. And they find the right policy for you that match your health, your lifestyle and your budget and they work for you for free. Baby gorgeous.
Giannis Papas
And that's why. And it's completely legit. They've helped more than 2 million Americans understand their options to get the coverage they need. Over $700 billion in coverage and counting. As a broker, their mission is simple. To find you the right insurance policy at the best price.
Chrissy D
And what I like about them too is they work with a lot of companies that if you got high blood pressure, diabetes or heart disease, which, which you know, we all have that they, a lot of times these life insurance companies, they won't, they'll just won't even accept you, but they find companies that do.
Giannis Papas
That's what's so great about them. You'll be covered faster than you think. Select quote works with providers who offer same day coverage up to $2 million worth with no medical exam required. Like Chrissy was saying, they find you what you need.
Chrissy D
That's it. And so right now life Insurance is never cheaper than it is today. Get the right life insurance for you for less and save more than 50%@SelectQuote.com hyenas save more 50% on term life insurance@SelectQuote.com hyenAs today to get started. That's SelectQuote.com hyenas I'm a soul man.

Oh, yeah, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Like cell service on it.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I went out in the city last night. I left my phone in the room and I was like, like, all right, like if I need a car, I'm going to have to get a yellow cab. Can't call Uber on the watch. I'm not really going to be able to take any phone calls and whatever. That's it. Like. And it is what it Is you.
Chrissy D
Could text at most.
Joe DeRosa
But I was just like. Even that much was just like, okay, you got a thing on your wrist that will tell you if there's an emergency. And that's it.
Chrissy D
And that's it. Did you feel free? Did you feel much more present?
Joe DeRosa
The same exact thing you just described the first 30 minutes. I was like, wait, where's my phone? Where's my phone? Because I went out and smoked at one point. I went down to Joey Roses and I went outside and how to smoke. And I was like, where. Where's my phone? And I was like, oh, I left it in the room. And then after a while, I forgot I didn't have it.
Chrissy D
And then you had a great night without it.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
I mean, she more present.
Chrissy D
Well, that's like, you know, the. The. The best bars now they're saying, are the one. Some of these. Certain bars that are saying, like, for fun, just put your. Put like those yonder bags that they give us there. If you want to go back in time, we'll play music from the 90s. And you put your phones in these bags and you can get them when you need to. But other than that, that there's no video, no recording. Like, you could just go live.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. No, man. I think that's going to be a growing trend. I think with the way everything is, that that sort of thing is going to be a growing trend. I also. I'm going to call it now, I think. I think people. You know, my friend. My friend sent me some pictures. She has a thing. She does. They're not nudes, but, like, they're salacious. Whatever.
Chrissy D
I can see now why your relationship ends.
Joe DeRosa
No, no. She was asking me to help her with captions for the pictures that were kind of funny.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
So I was trying to help her, and she said she's like, I'm a little worried because, like, I look very real in these pit. And I was like, I go, that's gonna work to your advantage.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I go, you know what everybody's gonna get sick of? Everybody's seen Instagram filters. Everybody's seen AI People. Whatever. I go, people that have imperfections, all these things AI can't do you. I go, you guys are gonna take off.
Chrissy D
Yep.
Joe DeRosa
You know what I mean? If you're like a.
Chrissy D
A imperfect human, which we all are. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
And especially if you're imperfect and doing like some sort of sexual content. Please, dude. Like you. I think that's gonna be booming.
Chrissy D
Natural booming, dude.
Joe DeRosa
Yes.
Chrissy D
It's getting crazy. There was a Guy who murdered two innocent people on a hiking trail in Arkansas a couple of days ago. And he got arrested. They were cutting his hair when he got arrested. And the barber, female barber, was cutting his hair. Her picture in the paper that they used was an all Instagram filtered picture. I was like, they're even using fill. Like, there's no point to put the filter on this.
Joe DeRosa
There's actually.
Chrissy D
What are you doing?
Joe DeRosa
They're de Aging actors and things now for no reason.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Like, just get a guy. Just get an actual actor.
Giannis Papas
You take it a mug shot and they're like, you throw a filter on that shot.
Joe DeRosa
But have you noticed that there's like, TV shows where they're clearly de. Aging the actors?
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
And it's not because the part calls for it.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
They're. They're making them. It's like a. It's like a shooting version of an Instagram filter. They just got really disturbing.
Giannis Papas
Well, the future is unknown. But I'll tell you, we can get a hint at what it's going to look like. I mean, they have erased the gene that causes down syndrome. They've erased it.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Chrissy D
So there will be no more down syndrome.
Giannis Papas
More down from kids.
Joe DeRosa
They think that this is. Yeah, this could be the end of it.
Giannis Papas
Holy smokes.
Joe DeRosa
And I promise you now, there will be people that will protest.
Giannis Papas
Be able to say the word again.
Chrissy D
Yeah. In Austin.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, In Austin. Yeah. You can fucking really let it.
Joe DeRosa
I guarantee you there will be people that will protest that.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
And say like, how dare you? How dare you call it an imperfection.
Giannis Papas
And I bet you every one of those people will not have a relative who has down.
Joe DeRosa
It's.
Giannis Papas
That's how it goes.
Chrissy D
The obesity. We've talked about, you know, hair being bald. We talked about it with Dan Soder. Like, all these things are going away. Like, leprosy used to be a thing that would. A real fear, like, you could die of leprosy. It was actual polio.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Chrissy D
These things are just eradicated. Yeah. So we're living in a time where I. I think in the next 50 years, like, you'll start to see abnormally low amounts of obese people. Yeah, you just. Or bald people.
Joe DeRosa
Well, everybody. Everybody's sticking a needle in their stomach and losing the weight and, you know.
Chrissy D
Even you took Ozempic, you pig.
Joe DeRosa
I tried it for a month. I did.
Chrissy D
What, what didn't you like about it?
Joe DeRosa
Look, I think you have to be considerably overweight for it to really have an effect. You know what I mean? I was trying to lose 5 or 6? 6 pounds, right?
Chrissy D
I couldn't do it.
Joe DeRosa
I kept it. I kept eating hoagies.
Giannis Papas
I just want to trim down.
Joe DeRosa
You.
Giannis Papas
You couldn't lift your body off that couch and just do 15 minutes on a treadmill for £5.
Joe DeRosa
Why?
Chrissy D
£6 is a week away.
Joe DeRosa
Why shoot it in me, dude?
Giannis Papas
You could skip two meals and lose five pounds.
Joe DeRosa
I didn't want to skip two meals. What I didn't want was to have the urge to eat those two meals. I wanted that urge to go away.
Chrissy D
Didn't work. Like, what? Did you have any symptoms?
Joe DeRosa
It made me feel kind of crappy. And you couldn't really drink on it. Like you drink but you couldn't get drunk. I was like, yeah, this. I'll use it. The old fashioned.
Chrissy D
Yes. Did you lose it? Are you down those five, six that you need?
Joe DeRosa
I'm getting. I'm pretty close to where I need to be, Right. I need to lose a few more, but. But I was off.
Giannis Papas
Ever be a Jack, Joe DeRosa? Will you ever get jacked?
Joe DeRosa
No, I do now.
Giannis Papas
Is that a aesthetic choice?
Joe DeRosa
No, I just do a little upper body. So I, you know, then whatever.
Chrissy D
One time he said we were on the phone for like 45 minutes and we were talking and he did his workout while we were on the phone. I didn't even hear him breathing hard. He was like, oh, I did my workout already. I was like. When? He was like, well, I was on the phone with you.
Joe DeRosa
I just do with dumbbells. I did, I did like 50 push ups today. I don't know, like, whatever. I don't, I don't fucking care.
Giannis Papas
But do you like, do you like. Because you're also a rock. You're also a rock and roll guy.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
So do you like the skinny kind of like look like. Yeah, my dangly kind of my.
Joe DeRosa
I've noticed like there's a tiny bit of shape coming into.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, you get. You are getting a nice little bite.
Joe DeRosa
And I'm like, I'm fine with that. Yeah, I'm fine with that and whatever. I'm not going to be a guy that's like, I got to go do legs today.
Giannis Papas
Right?
Joe DeRosa
Don't.
Chrissy D
Just will never be that guy. It's exhausting for you even think about that guy.
Joe DeRosa
I'm going to join a gym in Austin for two reasons. I want to be able to walk without sweating to death in 100 degree heat. So I'm going to join a gym where I can walk inside and just get step in and then I'm gonna go. And then for the steam room. To sweat out the boots.
Chrissy D
Yeah. To suck off.
Giannis Papas
You got realistic standards, and I like that. You just want to be able to walk without sweating.
Joe DeRosa
I mean. No, no, no, no, no, no. You miss. That is. Now I know why you were laughing. Yeah, I wasn't saying walk without sweating.
Giannis Papas
You kind of were.
Joe DeRosa
No, no, no. I'm saying it's a hundred degrees.
Giannis Papas
I know.
Joe DeRosa
And I want to go walk, like, two miles. You're like, this is ridiculous. I'm gonna get sunstro.
Chrissy D
Yeah, but you just want to be.
Giannis Papas
In shape enough to walk in Austin.
Joe DeRosa
I just want to. Well, I like walking as exercise. I listen to music, I answer emails, I write.
Chrissy D
You're not interested in running. You're not interested in looking like Joe. Yeah. Running my lap. Right?
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. Running is a horror show. I don't even understand.
Chrissy D
You don't want to do it.
Giannis Papas
It's not a rose garden.
Joe DeRosa
No, no, it is not.
Giannis Papas
And you don't promise.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, but wait, while we're talking about this, can I. I just want to. I want to do a call. I want to call some shit out with this Sydney Sweeney thing. Oh, yeah, Fucking burn him in me up.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
This. This poor girl. She. She goes. Did you see her response where she's crying?
Chrissy D
No. Does that. Is that Neil?
Joe DeRosa
No, she responded, yeah, it's sad, dude.
Giannis Papas
Or is it, like. Is the. Is it cropped? I just want to see tits.
Chrissy D
She's.
Giannis Papas
I want to make sure she's one.
Chrissy D
Of the hottest women I've.
Giannis Papas
I mean, she's hot in a naughty way. You know, that's the thing. She's not like. Like, oh, my God. Beautiful. Like, you're looking at.
Chrissy D
She's a sex symbol.
Giannis Papas
Yeah. You're not looking at, like, have you.
Chrissy D
Ever seen her in the HBO show?
Giannis Papas
You want to spit her movie mouth Fake. I think it was probably fake.
Joe DeRosa
Oh, no. There was a video of her crying, but was it not in response to this? But you know what I mean.
Giannis Papas
She's not hot like Jennifer Connelly. Like, beautiful. She's hot like, you want to spit in her mouth and have her spit in your mouth.
Chrissy D
Right, right, right.
Joe DeRosa
Oh, my God. It was fake.
Chrissy D
Where'd you see it, Joe?
Joe DeRosa
Sick on insta.AI something on Instagram. It was a her on her phone crying and being like, everybody needs to be a lot nicer on the Internet. Like, I don't even know what to say to all this. And it was like, I hope you're all happy. Like, here's her response.
Giannis Papas
Candace Owens. I got a message for you. I suspect that Sydney Sweeney is a guy. Get on it.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Is it this one? Fascism. Let me say. Hold on.
Joe DeRosa
Oh, my God. It was fake.
Chrissy D
You got.
Joe DeRosa
Dude, no, wait right there. Sydney Sweeney response to American Eagle backlash.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah. With Ray Allen talking over it.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, that's. That's the video I saw. Is that not.
Chrissy D
Let's see.
Joe DeRosa
Look at these pieces of. She accepted the job, practiced the ad, showed up and shot it. Her tears are performative. She knew exactly what she was doing. This is what look is it. We need to know if that's real, though, because if it's not real, what was she doing?
Chrissy D
What. What. What is the problem with the ad?
Joe DeRosa
Well, they said, Sydney, she looks hot as. And they said Sydney Sweeney has good genes. The play the joke of like, she's.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like, American Eagle. Yeah, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
And the joke was, she's got good genes. She's hot. But good jeans. She's wearing them.
Chrissy D
Okay, so that's the problem with that.
Giannis Papas
But let's. Come on, we live in 2025. You don't think the advertising agency or the. Or American Eagle knew a little bit. We put a blonde girl, blue eyes, we punt on jeans. This is going to take off on social media, and we want it.
Joe DeRosa
I think they got the biggest chick around right now, and whoever thinks is the hottest chick around right now. And she said, I'll do an American Eagle ad. And they said, and then we'll do one with hopefully. They probably had a list of people, right. That looked like all kinds of different people.
Giannis Papas
You don't think it crossed their mind for one second? Blonde hair, blue eyes.
Chrissy D
This is.
Giannis Papas
I got good genes.
Joe DeRosa
Let's put it this way. But why. Hold on a second. Fine. But here's my point. If we were in the meeting and you brought that up to me right now, my response would be be, that would be crazy, though. Like, wait, what? Like, who would get mad? And also, doesn't everybody have good. Can we just say somebody has good genes?
Giannis Papas
Yeah, but, you know, in the climate that kind of. We have online, if you said that to me, I'd go, that's genius. And if it becomes a controversy, that would be awesome.
Joe DeRosa
American Eagle responded.
Giannis Papas
And then I'd go, in fact, let's throw some fake accounts in there to initiate it.
Chrissy D
American Eagle responded.
Joe DeRosa
American Eagle responded. They said the ad was always and will be about the jeans. That's what.
Chrissy D
Yeah, so. So at least that's what's starting to happen now, is nobody's no company backing down anymore. But that's why I think feeds into my point.
Giannis Papas
Here's my hundred. I'm almost 100%. I would say I'm 98, 99% sure that I'm right.
Joe DeRosa
It's like the Colbert shit. It's like, really, Steve? Yeah, really, Steve. You didn't really.
Giannis Papas
You were losing 40 million a year. You didn't know. You didn't know? You didn't know.
Joe DeRosa
Oh. Oh, Steve. And you're not walking. You're going to continue to take money from the bribe.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
For another year. You're not walking.
Giannis Papas
You're not walking.
Joe DeRosa
Why don't you walk, bro?
Giannis Papas
Why don't you make a statement?
Chrissy D
Walk.
Giannis Papas
Yeah. Anyway, it's all performative bullshit. No, I want to get you started, fucking wind you up. Go.
Chrissy D
This is what bugs me.
Joe DeRosa
This is what bugs me with the Sydney Sweeney shit, okay? And this is a message to a lot of our colleagues.
Giannis Papas
Say it to the.
Joe DeRosa
I see a lot say to Dan.
Chrissy D
St. Germaine, who just walked by.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not conservative.
Giannis Papas
God damn it.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not conservative. Okay? I'm not Republican. I. I don't. I'm not a fan. I don't care. Give a. What you guys all have to say about conservative this and conservative that and Republican this. But I see a lot of bitching about the fucking conservatives and the comedians that. That lean that way and the people that lean that way and the problem in America. Da, da, da, da, da. Where the fuck is your concern for humanity when shit like this happens?
Giannis Papas
Right?
Joe DeRosa
Mark Marin, Where's. No, I'm not. I'm not naming names.
Giannis Papas
I did for you, but.
Joe DeRosa
No, but that's not what I'm saying.
Giannis Papas
It's exactly what you're saying.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not. No, but I'm serious. It's like. It's like. Here's the thing, man. This is all from the left.
Giannis Papas
Do you hear that? Anthony Jezelic.
Joe DeRosa
Stop. This is all from the left. This is absolute national bullying. From the fucking left?
Chrissy D
Yes.
Joe DeRosa
Where's the humanity now? Where are the people coming out and saying, hey, guys, leave this girl alone?
Chrissy D
Right?
Joe DeRosa
What the fuck are we doing?
Giannis Papas
She voted Republican, though, Joe, in Florida.
Chrissy D
Did she? Yeah. Why? Trump is praising Sidney Sweet. Meaning because she's a registered Republican. Feeds into that a little.
Joe DeRosa
So that's what it is.
Chrissy D
That's part of it, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Now, do you think they would have got her back otherwise? They wouldn't have.
Chrissy D
No, no, no. I think. I think that. That I. I do agree with everything you're saying, and I also agree with Yanis, how I think it could all. This could all be like how Lorne Michaels would have negative press be leaked out because it all promotes snl. Like, also similarly to the Giannis brought up the throwing the dildos on the court for the wnba.
Giannis Papas
Oh, that's so obvious.
Chrissy D
That's all that the WN doing that. That's how Disney.
Joe DeRosa
Disney does that with Star wars, where before the show even came out, they would be like a lot of racist backlash already and there wouldn't be any.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
And they'd get everybody yelling at each other.
Chrissy D
Right.
Giannis Papas
Jesse taught me the best about the advertising agents because he was in it for so long. If you don't think these people are two steps ahead and aware of this and that traditional advertising doesn't cut it anymore and you need to do outrage and you know, I mean, it's just what it is now. I mean, mean, they. Everyone is aware. When you look at things like just for an example, Shane Gillis. Right. Going back in time. Right. Horrible press. Ultimately. Now this has nothing to do with how talented he is because he is. But ultimately it was very good for him.
Chrissy D
Right?
Joe DeRosa
Right.
Giannis Papas
People knew his name.
Joe DeRosa
Right.
Giannis Papas
So we're at that stage now where it's going to get shameless like this, where people are going to do outrageous things on purpose.
Chrissy D
On purpose because they're going to go.
Joe DeRosa
Let'S try to repeat the phenomenon that happened with a guy like Shane where negative people pressed.
Chrissy D
The first. There's will be a guy. There will be a person who's going to. Who's going to create a fake controversy about themselves and put it out and do all that.
Joe DeRosa
I actually.
Giannis Papas
Exactly.
Joe DeRosa
I was, I was pissed off when Eminem put out the death of Slim Shady because his whole. And he didn't really do this with the album, but his whole thing was like, I'm going to cancel myself because I was working on a TV idea about a guy who tries to cancel himself because he thinks it'll be the route to get to. To fame and all this, this whole can of worms opens. But, but, but anyway. But I don't know, man. I just. It just bothers me that I like.
Giannis Papas
That you made this about you. You found a way to bring it back to something. How you got hurt by this.
Joe DeRosa
No, no, I didn't get hurt by anything.
Giannis Papas
Eminem stole your idea.
Joe DeRosa
Oh, that's what you did.
Chrissy D
I was doing plastic surgery like Eminem. You for that?
Joe DeRosa
I don't like. No, I love Eminem.
Giannis Papas
No, that'd be great. Or Try to star some.
Joe DeRosa
No, I love Eminem now. I love Eminem.
Giannis Papas
Fuck you, Eminem.
Joe DeRosa
I hate you, Eminem.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Guys, do yourself a favor. If you're renting, you got to go get yourself built. B I L T. I know the kid who owns a company. He's an Indian billionaire. Yeah, the kid has real money. Yeah.
Giannis Papas
And this is a great company and a lot of buildings are using this. This is the way to pay.
Chrissy D
I did a comedy show for them for Built and it was amazing to see all the people who are. Because what they do is they were putting on this comedy show in the city for Built members. So all these people, people were like literally talking. I've never heard, I've never been around a company owner and people who have the product just talk. It wasn't a commercial. Nobody was filming this. They were just saying how awesome they thought BILT was.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, this is one of those no brainer products that if you pay rent, you need to get.
Chrissy D
Yes.
Giannis Papas
By paying rent through Bilt, you earn flexible points that can be redeemed towards hundreds of hotels and airlines, future rent payments, your next Lyft ride, and more. This is basically you getting screwed in.
Chrissy D
That's you getting screwed in because you know, like your mother or father always tell you, well, you're paying rent, it's like throwing money out the window. So it's like, yes, you're still paying the rent, but at least now there it's not just your landlord getting rich. You can get points and you can start to have those payments go towards trips, future rent payment, getting to work, whatever it is. So it's a really genius idea.
Giannis Papas
I mean, you're paying rent anyway. Might as well get a few treats as well.
Chrissy D
Why the hell not? Bilt is turning a monthly expense into an opportunity to earn rewards and discover the best that your neighborhood has to offer. Your rent is finally working for you. Johnny, tell them what they got to do.
Giannis Papas
Earn points on rent and around your neighborhood, wherever you call home, my friends, by. By going to join built.comhistory hyenas. That's J-O-I N B I L T.comhistory hyenas. Make sure to use our URL so they know that Yanni and Chrissy sent ya.
Chrissy D
Bundle and safe With Expedia, you were.
Joe DeRosa
Made to follow your favorite band. And from the front row we were made to quietly save you more Expedia made to travel savings vary and subject to availability.
Chrissy D
Flight inclusive packages are at all protected.
Joe DeRosa
But you're. But my point is, is. Is it just this shit just bugs me, man, that there's this call for humanity from one side of this aisle all the time. And then when shit like this happens, nobody calls it out. Nobody calls it out. Where was the fervor. Where was the fervor with the liberally minded people in this business? Business. When YouTube was censoring people and demonetizing people, if you even said the word Covid in your video.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
Where was the fervor around that for free speech?
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
Where was the fur? Where was. Where were the people Coming to Jon Stewart's defense because he had to cut ties with Apple because he wanted to talk honestly about things like Covid and they said no.
Chrissy D
Right.
Giannis Papas
Nobody defend.
Joe DeRosa
He's liberal and nobody defended him.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
It's just crazy to me, man. Like, the way people pick these perfect, perfect PR lanes.
Chrissy D
It's whatever works for them.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. Because. Because. Well, that's a safe. This is a safe one. This is a safe one. I'll just ride right up the middle.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
It's just.
Chrissy D
Since everyone's being phony.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. I'll continue to piss and moan about Austin.
Giannis Papas
We all got cameras on us. So everyone is grifting and being performative.
Joe DeRosa
Yes.
Giannis Papas
And projecting this public image that they're strictly this or strictly that. When everyone in private is a mixed bag, let's be honest.
Chrissy D
Sure.
Giannis Papas
Everyone's a mixed bag.
Chrissy D
Sure.
Giannis Papas
You get Jon Stewart alone and you talk to him and you go, hey, what do you really think about crime? Do you really think Mondami is going to be good on crime? Really personally? The cameras are off. Let's talk about it. Let's look at examples in Seattle. Let's look at examples in Portland. Let's look at Chicago. If you really think this social Democratic platform on policing is going to work, if you think Jon Stewart's going to.
Chrissy D
Say yes, I'll take you one step further. Even if you got Mamdani in private, he would say, I don't think my policies are actually going to work.
Joe DeRosa
Dude.
Giannis Papas
When you got Mamdani in private, he would giggle, he would laugh, and he'd say, how good am I doing? I'm the talented Mr. Ripley. I have no feelings.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Isn't it great?
Joe DeRosa
This, well, this Sydney Sweeney thing, I believe, and I might be wrong, but I think this is as big a misstep from the left as anything. Bill Maherson. That thing about, like, while you were pretend. While you were protecting your virgin ears, you got fucked in the ass.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I think this is another great example of that. And this Is another thing that whether people like, like the right side of the aisle or like Trump or not, this is a thing to look to when everybody's going, can you believe these fucking idiots voted for Trump? It's like, I'm not a fan of Trump. But you know what? I understand, I do understand people see shit like this. And whether you want to say this is a big deal or not, I'm not even saying it is. I am saying this is what people see. And they go, you know what? Fuck this shit, man. I'm going over there. You know, Like, I don't know.
Chrissy D
And I think too, even in this world of, I mean, one of the thing we did five, six years ago, you know, we were seeing people like, get these write ups from like Variety magazine or whatever about like, best comedy special of the year. And we would watch the special and be like, listen, comedy subjective. We get it. But this isn't even like, remotely.
Giannis Papas
It was. Often it would be objectively bad.
Chrissy D
And then Giannis wrote like, you know, we, you know, filtered years before AI wrote an article saying how great the history is working and put made it look like it was from the New York Times. And we posted on Instagram and the amount of messages. I did it.
Giannis Papas
I did it as a sad.
Chrissy D
The amount of overwhelming response we got from huge like Bill Burr. We didn't even know Bill Burback then. Like, first thing we thought was like, finally guys are getting some recognition. We're like, oh, so it's all bullshit.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Chrissy D
The same way that the people say this is the best ever or Sydney Sweeney. Look at this. Horrible. It's all. You realize, oh, marketing. It's all a lie. It's all of it. You can create it yourself.
Giannis Papas
That's why you got to. The best thing is to just get that organic buzz where people tell their friends. Then you know that people really like.
Chrissy D
Going back to his special, the rose Garden. Because it's like, oh, okay. That there's no. It's just like, oh, there's just a good special. People hear about it.
Giannis Papas
And I love that he found a way to, to promote his sandwiches too. And you don't. You don't think Joey thought about that. Just the way you don't think American Eagle didn't think.
Chrissy D
No.
Joe DeRosa
Make no mistake, subconsciously, I'm real, dude.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah.
Giannis Papas
Rose garden. Joey. Roses.
Chrissy D
No, because the kid's always hawking. Sam, make absolutely no mistake. Even though Joe presents as IT talent. Italian was born. No, born Egyptian.
Giannis Papas
He's a Jew.
Chrissy D
Yeah, he's a Jew.
Giannis Papas
Right. Are you Egyptian? Are you mostly Egyptian? And now I understand. You know what they do in Egypt, which I just learned on Jeopardy. What a fact. 80, 87 of women in Egypt have their clits cut off.
Chrissy D
No. Yeah. I thought that wasn't real.
Giannis Papas
No, it's real.
Chrissy D
Wheel, dude, that was a question on Jeopardy. No, Ken Jennings was saying that.
Giannis Papas
No, that was the joke part. Oh, sorry. Wasn't on Jeopardy. But I'm saying 80, 87. 87 of women in Egypt had.
Chrissy D
I can't imagine that.
Giannis Papas
It is true.
Joe DeRosa
That seems crazy.
Giannis Papas
That is true.
Chrissy D
There's a clitless society.
Giannis Papas
It is. I guess it seems crazy.
Joe DeRosa
You think there's, like, a quarry they throw?
Giannis Papas
No, it's just.
Chrissy D
That's what they build the pyramid with.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, they just cut the clit stuff.
Joe DeRosa
It's. That's. That's insane.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
That's gross.
Chrissy D
I mean, shame. Yeah. I mean, Sydney Sweeney just know if you're listening. I just. Like, Joe is single.
Giannis Papas
Yeah. And I just want to remind everyone, you have to do this. It's not a reflection on Islam. It's, you know, it's got nothing to do with Islam. It's just the Egyptian thing.
Chrissy D
All right. You have to. Have to be careful. I. Dude, I. We need to be two months. I got a show in Saudi Arabia, so I don't want any clips to pop up at the airport. Wait, do you really swear to God? What?
Joe DeRosa
Why?
Chrissy D
They're doing a big comedy festival there.
Joe DeRosa
Like, God, dude, that sounds awful. Sounds like a terrible idea.
Chrissy D
You think?
Joe DeRosa
Yes.
Chrissy D
In Saudi Arabia. But I thought that was, like, the Americanized one. I mean, you wouldn't go. Dude, you're.
Joe DeRosa
I mean, that's like saying.
Chrissy D
Don't say.
Giannis Papas
Just go and bomb. Just don't say anything.
Chrissy D
That's the thing.
Giannis Papas
There's so many things you can't say, Right?
Chrissy D
Can I just go. I could just go talk about Puerto Ricans, right?
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. No, you wouldn't do it.
Chrissy D
You know, the way you talk, the right number. You wouldn't do it.
Joe DeRosa
Dude, that's like saying. That's like saying, you know, there's, you know. Dude, I don't know. That's like going through to me. That's like, you know, there's a nice restaurant, but you got to walk through a real bad neighborhood to get there, right? I don't know.
Chrissy D
Like, you would not feel comfortable being over there.
Joe DeRosa
I don't. I would not feel comfortable going to that region of the world personally right now. No.
Chrissy D
But they say Saudi Arabia is very, very safe.
Joe DeRosa
But what do you what are you crossing through to get to Saudi Arabia?
Chrissy D
Like you could just get a plane shot out of.
Joe DeRosa
I don't know, man. It just seems. Why, why, why test it?
Chrissy D
Yeah, I know my family is pretty upset that I said yes.
Joe DeRosa
Well, there's a reason you're going to.
Giannis Papas
A country that looks good on the surface, but there's a lot of horrible things happen. Country to make it look a certain way on the surface.
Chrissy D
Right, right, right, right, right.
Giannis Papas
But also, but let me. This is how you succeed there. Do you know the jokes you do in your group chat about Jews?
Chrissy D
Yes. Just do those, tell those right and you'll be fine. Right? Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
They're not going to know what you're talking about. Puerto Rican.
Chrissy D
Well, I said, I said to my agent, I was like, I'm going to, I'm going to like bomb that. They were like, they want American comedy over there. They have a base of 5,000 U.S. troops.
Joe DeRosa
Oh, it's a true show.
Chrissy D
No, no, it's not the troop show. It's, it's the Ria, Ria, Ria. What's the cap R I I don' Saudi Arabia. It's the, it's the, it's there. It's a huge. Kevin Hart's going. Tom Segura. Me, Sam. Tim Dillon.

Joe DeRosa
I mean, I'm Saudi Arabian and it would make me nerd. I'm a little South Arabian and it's. I would still be.
Chrissy D
You just wouldn't like. And when you go to see. Doesn't click. All right.
Joe DeRosa
It's just. It's an intense time, man. It's just. I don't. I. This is nothing against Saudi Arabia. It's just in general, my take on everything anymore. I feel like going into the world anymore is like going on to X.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
I'm retracting from it. Like, I don't want to be in the mix of it all anymore. I want to pick my spots. I want to be able to go into places that. That I feel comfortable in. I think you're gonna be fine, you know, But I don't know. Do you know what I mean? Like, getting harder and harder to. To want to travel.
Chrissy D
Well, my. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Anywhere within this country, let alone.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Somewhere else.
Chrissy D
I know, dude. Well, I will say, even with air travel, like, dude, you know, you know, as we're all on the road, I've flown. We've all flown, I mean, thousands of times probably now. But I will say now, I don't know if it's the media, you know, just making stories like that. Things happen every day, like an emergency landing here, an engine failure there. I don't know if this just always was happening, happening, and they just wouldn't report on it. But, like, every day there's a problem with an airplane. Some every day, like, it's in the news. And so you're just like. Every time you get on, you're like.
Giannis Papas
Well, you know, it's. The thing that's scary to me is that the current administration seems to be seeking to just dysregulate everything and get And a lot of these regulations are in place for safety and like that. So you're going like, all right, maybe I'll sit these four years out until we get back.
Chrissy D
Do you have to get on flights? Yeah, you just get. You just do it. You just tuck your dick in between your legs and sit on your balls and do it.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, but, you know, I'm overreacting. But, you know, that's the vibe. The vibe is like, hey, we don't.
Chrissy D
That's.
Giannis Papas
These safety protocols is all bureaucratic.
Chrissy D
And watch. And you know what? Sometimes watch now panic. Watch me now panic and cancel my show. And then a week later, Deroge is going to take my spot. He will. He'll take.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not big enough to be on that festival.
Chrissy D
Yeah. See More.
Giannis Papas
Can you click on See More?
Chrissy D
No, it doesn't work. Oh, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Well, that's a bad sign. That's not website already.
Giannis Papas
Oh, you're going to be over there with friend. I mean, you know, Santino and Bobby will be there.
Chrissy D
There.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, Burr will be there. I mean, he won't talk to you, but he'll be there.
Chrissy D
You'll do ketamine and talk about being parents. Yeah. Bad Santino.
Joe DeRosa
But, yeah. No, but what you just said about the media, it's. The media are. They're fucking scum. I mean, I've been saying. I've been saying since the first. Since 2016 with the first Trump election when everybody was bitching about Trump, Trump, Trump. I go, why don't you guys start bitching a little bit about the media? And that these fucking people are running around unaccountable, accountable, Right. With a shield of, if you dare criticize us, we will call you a fascist.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
They are irresponsible completely, 100 of the time. They all have blood on their hands. It is disgusting. It is disgusting what these people run wild with. And that's why now we live in an age where you've got youtubers running circles journalistically around actual professional journalists.
Chrissy D
Yes.
Joe DeRosa
You've got guys like David Rubin, Tim Dillon. The list goes on. Now, whether you agree with these guys politically or not is a different story. But that's not my point. You watch these guys speak to actual journalists, professional journalists, and run fucking circles around them.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
It's insane. It's insane that this is where we're at.
Chrissy D
Do you think it ever goes back or it just gets worse from here?
Joe DeRosa
This will never my. My take on this country for 20 years now, and it continues to be. Be so it will never get better. It will never improve. You will just find different degrees of comfort amidst.
Chrissy D
So our goal years was the 70s and 80s.
Giannis Papas
It's on you.
Joe DeRosa
It's too high a ceiling. You can't have a ceiling this high with this many people. It doesn't work, right? It doesn't work when every person can create an illusion of luxury for themselves because we all have the same phone. We can all lease the same fucking car, right? We can all create this. This fake lifestyle online, right? You can rent clothing, you can rent jewelry. It doesn't work, right? It doesn't work. You.
Chrissy D
You.
Joe DeRosa
That. That has such a profound effect on motivation. It has such a profound effect on. On entitlement and thinking, understanding what's earned versus what is deserved versus versus what. That's all gone.
Giannis Papas
Are you saying we need like, abject poverty back to give people motivation?
Joe DeRosa
No, that's not what I'm saying.
Giannis Papas
Because as Joe, another Joe, said, Joe DiMaggio said nobody was who was ever rich, made it to the big leagues. Are you saying.
Joe DeRosa
Wow, that's interesting.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
No, no, that's not what I'm saying. Yeah.
Giannis Papas
You heard that one by Joey D, right?
Chrissy D
I have, yeah.
Joe DeRosa
The other Joey D. The other.
Chrissy D
Yeah, the old Joey.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. No, that's not what. That's how I can't tell if you're joking.
Giannis Papas
America's Joey G. Joe DiMaggio. Joey D. Not fucking Communist Red over there. No, that's China. This guy's fucking a psyop.
Joe DeRosa
That's not what I. That's not what I'm saying.
Giannis Papas
On America. And we love this country.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, that's not at all.
Chrissy D
We're going to be fine, right?
Giannis Papas
Abadabi is going to fix it.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Chrissy D
Our fans are yelling Fuck Iraq in the car right now.
Giannis Papas
Fuck Iraq. Fuck Iraq.
Joe DeRosa
Now I'm referencing.
Giannis Papas
I know you mean there's a George.
Joe DeRosa
There's a George Carlin quote where he goes, we're way too fucking prosperous for our own good. Everybody's got a cell phone that'll scratch their balls and make them pancakes. It's like. It's true.
Chrissy D
You can't say that. What, 20 years ago, 15 years ago.
Joe DeRosa
Probably over 20 years ago. Yeah, but it's like you can't. The access to prosperity is. It's not good. And the access to a platform is not good. And I know that sounds like fascist thinking, but it's the truth. We've leveled the playing field to a point where. What do you do? Where do you go from here? What do you go? Colin Quinn said once one team Starts calling everybody Nazis. The other team starts calling everybody pedophiles. He goes, you don't come back from.
Giannis Papas
Like, wait, say that again. You were mumbling.
Chrissy D
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Giannis Papas
Everybody.
Joe DeRosa
It'S a taping. Say.
Giannis Papas
Well, you know.
Chrissy D
Well, it's a sense of entitlement too, right. I mean, everybody's entitled. Everybody thinks they should have what you have because they feel it's in their grasp because of social media.
Joe DeRosa
And now put it inject into that the fact that you have to question. Look what just happened. The city Smitty thing.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
I'm sitting there going, wait, is the video real? Is it not real? Is it real? But it's from three years ago, right? Is it fake? Like you. Is any review real?
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
You go on Amazon, this has 3.5 stars out of 5. Why?
Chrissy D
Well, it broke.
Joe DeRosa
Is that a troll? Is it real?
Chrissy D
Did they pay bots to fly flood that exactly right.
Joe DeRosa
They've given access to anything.
Chrissy D
Right.
Joe DeRosa
Is this post real? Is this news story real? Is. It's all. You can't. We live in a. In a culture of distrust. It's. It's insane. This is madness. You do not recover from this. There is no recovery unless it's an absolute shutdown. They take the phones away from us forcefully and they go, we're done.
Chrissy D
And now we're speaking his life. I would love it.
Giannis Papas
Government come in, start taking phones because no more voice to the people.
Chrissy D
That would. Would come right in. All of a sudden my legs would just start kicking up.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, yeah, you're talking to. You're talking about some real authoritarian kind of Chinese tactics.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not saying.
Giannis Papas
I'm not rip the phones out of their hands.
Joe DeRosa
I'm not saying that's what I want. I'm saying that's the only way to fix any.
Giannis Papas
Right?
Joe DeRosa
Like, that's, that's literally. I don't know what else you do. You don't keep allowing. I mean, Jesus Christ, dude, you got fucking people. You got fucking people on their phones and computers creating better de aging and better CGI and better AI than Disney is doing. Literally. Think about that.
Giannis Papas
Think about that.
Joe DeRosa
When that kind of power, for lack of a better way of putting it or ability, is in the hands of the average person, this is fucking chaos. The second that deepfake shit came out, I was like, here we go, dude. You're going to start seeing videos of presidents saying shit they didn't say.
Chrissy D
Right? And it already is. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
And it's going to start. It's going to start social fucking chaos. But don't you think everybody thinks it's going to be troops marching down the streets with mission? So I get so mad when people focus so hard on Trump and this and fascism, Whatever everybody thinks it's going to come with. With soldiers marching down the streets. That's not what's going to happen. We're going to all kill each other.
Chrissy D
Right?
Joe DeRosa
And they're going to fucking walk through and take what they need from our ashes and keep it fucking moving. That's going to happen, and they're allowing it to fucking happen.
Giannis Papas
But you think that.
Chrissy D
I agree with you, but do you.
Giannis Papas
Think then the regulation or the. The defense against that will evolve and, like, they'll regulate it better so you'll be able to. But when a video goes up, it'll be. The AI will detect that it's AI and tell you it's AI. You don't think so?
Joe DeRosa
No, no AI. Dude, did you see those tests they ran on AI? They did a controlled experiment where they fed AI information about the people operating it. And one of the things they fed it was. Was a storyline that one of the engineers was having a affair, and when he told the AI to shut itself down, it refused to do so, and then started to try to blackmail him about his affair.
Chrissy D
Whoa, whoa.
Joe DeRosa
That's a real thing that happened.
Chrissy D
I got to my life.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, yeah, it was a controlled experiment, but they were like, let's see what it does. And that's what it fucking did.
Chrissy D
Wow.
Joe DeRosa
So, dude, it's already ahead of us. It's already ahead of us. It's already been carelessly fucking exploited. Nobody wants to listen to Bill Gates when he was like, guys, pump the fucking brakes for a minute because he's the devil and all.
Chrissy D
Everyone's like, you microchip.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, so? So it's like nobody wants to listen to anybody because they don't like them because they wore the wrong fucking sweater on the wrong day of the week or whatever the fucking reason is. And it's like, okay, well, that's fine, guys. You can have your ethical stances and whatnot, but we're gonna have to start to listen to each other. And now I just think it's too late. All this shit that China's doing, like, all the authoritarian shit that China does that was in place, right? So they're way ahead of us with a lot of shit. But China, China is filtering it out in the way they decide to filter it out. We are past that. We had it dumped onto our. Into our laps. Everybody's got it. You can't add the filter.
Chrissy D
The happiness. I saw a social experiment.
Giannis Papas
They.
Chrissy D
Happiness levels in China are way happier there than here.
Joe DeRosa
Well, really? I mean, is that true?
Chrissy D
I don't know. You know? Well, they said. Because I think they.
Giannis Papas
They tell you which box to check, maybe.
Joe DeRosa
Well, that's true. That's.
Giannis Papas
No, you don't know.
Joe DeRosa
The giant sticks, they.
Giannis Papas
What did they say? They lost four people during COVID Yeah, right.
Chrissy D
That was North Korea.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Chrissy D
He also says he doesn't Kim Jong Un because he's never taken a. In his life. He tells the people, that's the one thing that's good. It's real.
Giannis Papas
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
That's incredible.
Chrissy D
Yeah. They all eat it up. They love it.
Giannis Papas
Oh, he seems to be living fine. I mean, he's got plenty of food.
Chrissy D
Rocket Man.
Giannis Papas
And he's got Pat Ewing's flat top from the 90s.
Chrissy D
Yeah. Hold on.
Joe DeRosa
I'm gonna buy myself some time. I got to tell him to bring this thing over here.
Chrissy D
What is it?
Joe DeRosa
I was gonna have to go to the stand to.
Giannis Papas
No, we're gonna wrap up right now.
Joe DeRosa
We're wrapping up right now Already? We're not even at an hour yet.
Chrissy D
Well, we are. Well, he didn't start the time. And then we do.
Giannis Papas
And then we're at an hour because he didn't start the time.
Joe DeRosa
All right.
Chrissy D
And then we also do. We read our Patreon names at the end of every episode. So this hour. This episode will be like an hour and 15 minutes.
Giannis Papas
I'll do it together, guys. There's only one thing that's gonna change this, and that's heart.
Chrissy D
My heart.
Giannis Papas
What? I'm autistic?
Chrissy D
Yeah. This is the only.
Giannis Papas
Our heart has to. The only thing that's going to solve this problem is a little heart in this world.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
What it is. Somebody's going to clip that out of context, you see? And I go, what?
Chrissy D
That wasn't a salute.
Giannis Papas
I'm autistic.
Joe DeRosa
Hilarious. Yeah, that's hilarious.
Giannis Papas
That's the only thing that's going to solve this, right? Is heart.
Joe DeRosa
Art. Art and heart ain't going to do shit.
Giannis Papas
How about.
Chrissy D
How about got to move to Phoenixville, Pennsylvania? That's the only answer.
Joe DeRosa
I mean, honestly, dude, like, if I. If I could live in. I love Austin. I really do.
Giannis Papas
And I love Christ. But you. L. Are you serious?
Joe DeRosa
No, I'm about to say something.
Giannis Papas
Austin's a dump.
Joe DeRosa
Oh, yeah. This city's real pretty.
Giannis Papas
This city is amazing.
Chrissy D
Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love having a crazy guy come dance in my face.
Giannis Papas
That doesn't happen in Austin at all degree.
Joe DeRosa
It does here in Austin.
Chrissy D
Austin dancing guy just goes on Tony.
Giannis Papas
Yeah, that guy's going to win Kilton.
Joe DeRosa
The Great this year. I mean, the whole five star hotel here and seeing rats in the lobby. Is that true? I'm making, I'm telling you, I'm taking.
Giannis Papas
Shots back, but you got blanks. You're talking about New York City.
Joe DeRosa
You didn't even let me finish.
Giannis Papas
You think Austin's great because you come from the south, You're a Wawa trash.
Joe DeRosa
You're Wawa track move two hours north. You abandoned this city. Yeah, exactly.
Giannis Papas
I don't want to see anything. Exactly. I tell you what, if there's anything.
Joe DeRosa
That you moved to Westchester, Pennsylvania.
Giannis Papas
Listen, I moved back to the 1950s and I'm not upset about it.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, no, what I was going to say was. You didn't let me finish the sentence.
Giannis Papas
I'm sorry.
Joe DeRosa
I still love New York. I have a great time here. Oh, I'm a pig. Yeah, I love this. The city let you pig like. No, yeah, I'm it. I'm with the rats here.
Giannis Papas
Now.
Chrissy D
Love it.
Giannis Papas
Right.
Joe DeRosa
What I was going to say is I love Austin. I love doing comedy and stuff there. But if I could live full time in PA and still like maintain my career in the same way, I would do that. And I think that's where a lot of people's heads are headed, where they're like, I, I want to go smaller and quieter and like get into a smaller community of people.
Chrissy D
Like, you know, the guy, the, the moving company that we use when, you know, where we moved. He said he's been mover for like 20 years. He was like, the last year he was like, my moves, he was like, I've, I've been doing this a long time. 20 years. He was like, 95 plus percent of my moves are taking people from the five boroughs out, as opposed to the first 15 years were taking people into the five boroughs. He was like, people are just leaving in droves. Everybody's going, well, the city has made it.
Joe DeRosa
And this is, this upsets me greatly about New York, but it is what it is. But. And this will spread out to the rest of the country. Everything starts in New York and then get eventually reflected everywhere else. But it does upset me that this is the most blue city on planet Earth and yet they have created an almost unlivable situation for the average human being in the city that I think.
Chrissy D
That'S very ran through the roof problems. Crime.
Joe DeRosa
Mom and pops are closing up, left and right.
Chrissy D
It's crazy, bro. Even. Even mom and Pops, but even the big drugstores, like. But there are Rite Aids, closed Rite AIDS. There are three CVS's that I know of in Queens that they have those signs, store closing, big clearance sale.
Joe DeRosa
I mean, you want to talk about. We're talking about PR stuff. Orchestration strategy on purpose. Looks like one thing's actually another. There's something happening there with this.
Giannis Papas
I'll tell you what it is. I think it's the tech takeover. It's Amazon. They started doing pharmacy.
Joe DeRosa
Right.
Giannis Papas
We look at what they did to our industry, look at what they're doing to every industry. Retail, whatever, the tech lords, I just bow to them. They are the new oligarchs. They are the new industrial barons. But it's even more because the industrial barons control things like transportation with the railroads, etc. These guys control the news, they control entertainment, they control retail, they control. They're starting to control pharmaceuticals. They're getting everything, so they really control the world. It's crazy to think. Think the power that only a few guys have. We've never entered into this type of small club that owns. They own AI.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
People are going to AI for therapy. They control your mind, your body, your what you see, what you eat.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. Did you hear about the AI psychosis happening?
Chrissy D
Yeah. No. What's going on?
Joe DeRosa
People that are, like, talking to. Chat GPT too much for advice, and they. They're having. There's like a new psychosis happening where they. They don't. They're being told they're right and reassured so much by a comp. An algorithm, whatever it's called a program.
Giannis Papas
Artificial intelligence.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah. That they're having psychosis. Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Because they're going like, I feel like Jesus, and going like, you know, in a lot of ways you're brave like Jesus. And.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah.
Giannis Papas
Yeah. So they did.
Joe DeRosa
It's like confirmation.
Chrissy D
Yeah. See, when I talk to the chat GPT, I know that it's telling me what I want to hear because I'm kind of prompting it. But you're saying people out there are like.
Joe DeRosa
It's documented. There's a. There's a psychosis happening because people are talking to it too much and don't know how to now interact properly. I mean, dude, it was bad enough. This is just a simple version of it. Right. But it was bad enough when they implement it with the iPhone. Grammar correction. Because, like, that's a very small thing, but it's indicative of a bigger problem. People start not understanding Grammar. People start not knowing how to write things. People start not knowing how to express themselves properly in a written message because why the phone will fit fix it for me. And then it goes out with typos. And then that the phone will fix it for me turns into, well, big deal, sorry for the typos. And then the next thing you know, somebody doesn't know how to fucking communicate almost at all because this is the only way they're communicating. And they can't even do that the right way because they're relying on a phone to fix it for them. And if it doesn't fix it, they don't know how to fix it themselves. So then they just. Blanket statement, apology, right? People are now with ChatGPT, feeding into it what they need to say to another human. Human being getting the message back perfectly written and then sending it. They're probably not even reading it half the time, right?
Chrissy D
Just copy and paste.
Joe DeRosa
They just know it will be written diplomatically and in a way that if the other person were to challenge it, the other person would be an asshole. Why?
Chrissy D
Dude, people are representing themselves in court because they're just asking Chachi PT what I should say and what I shouldn't say. And they're just representing themselves.
Joe DeRosa
And you had the balls to ask, is this going to get better? What are you nuts? You nuts?
Giannis Papas
It's not a rose garden out there, folks.
Chrissy D
Yeah, that's what you want. Any, any, any, you know, safety and reprieve. You go to Joe DeRosa Comedy, the official Joe DeRosa channel, on the official.
Giannis Papas

Chrissy D
Watch his special, I never promised you a rose garden, where he literally starts the special by saying, this is a negative special.
Giannis Papas
And if you need to ask a question, don't ask it to chat gbt, just DM Joe Rosa and say, I'm attracted to trans women. Does it make you gay? Ask a real human. Who knows?
Chrissy D

Giannis Papas
Joe puts thought into stuff, man. And I really dig that. And Joe, you've always been one of my favorite comics. Always some of my favorite jokes. One of my favorite jokes that I still remember is a Joe derosa joke. And it was a long joke, and it was about how the city drives you crazy.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, yeah.
Giannis Papas
And I mean, it was a brilliant joke.
Joe DeRosa
Thanks, man.
Giannis Papas

Giannis Papas
About how you know, you're like, this is how the city drives you crazy. And he takes you through and it was like an eight minute bit. And then you get. You're talking about this guy on the street.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, yeah.
Chrissy D
Doing like the guy.
Joe DeRosa
The guy. Yeah, the guy. Like when I was saying. Well, I was just saying crazy people dancing in your face and you go.
Giannis Papas
This is how he got here.
Joe DeRosa
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Chrissy D
What special is that from how many years ago?
Joe DeRosa
I never put that on a special. It's on one of my. I think it's on my. Yeah, because you will die.
Giannis Papas
Why would you put one of your best bits on a.
Joe DeRosa
Well, maybe I'll put it in this new fucking. Because it was so New York eccentric. I was like, I don't know if people will get this.
Giannis Papas
Everyone would get that, you know. Yeah.
Joe DeRosa
But it was.
Chrissy D
Well, there's so many people in the.
Giannis Papas
City that bit back.
Joe DeRosa
Because now so many cities reflect, like how hard it is to live in them.
Giannis Papas
Like back.
Joe DeRosa
I'll just say you. When you live in a major city these days, that's. I'm going to bring it back.
Giannis Papas
