Larry McFeely
Hey, it's Larry McFeely here with my friend Wayne from AMCO. And Wayne, if my car has an extended warranty, do I have to take it back to the dealer for service?
Wayne
No, Larry, if you have an extended service contract, you can use it at any amco.
Larry McFeely
It's nice to have other options.
Wayne
I'll say Amco has dealership quality rental cars, no hassles and faster service.
Larry McFeely
Amco does more than just transmissions, right?
Wayne
Right. If you need car repairs or hear, feel, see, smell, or even think you have a car issue, call Amco first.

Jay Moore

Around the neighborhood.
Brett
You're normal people. But to all of us, it's like, man, that has just got to be such a. Because as a sports fan, it just doesn't happen to anybody, you know, I think.
Jay Moore
Yeah, I don't really.
Brett
It just doesn't register. It's. That's kind of cool, too, in its own weird way that it's just like. It is what it is.
Jay Moore
You guys look like a million bucks, most of you.
Brett
You don't think Brad looks that great, but.
Jay Moore
No, I wasn't talking about Brett. Oh, who's this guy just walked in?
Brett
That's a Thriller. He Thriller. He walk around for a second, watch. This is why we call him Thriller. He's got a weird lip. So you've been gone for a while, Jay. We've had to entertain ourselves. Yeah, that's Thriller, you know.

Brett
That's at your rehab?
Jay Moore
He's not even my roommate's name in rehab was Armando.

Uhhuh.
Jay Moore
And he was a gangbanger. And if you didn't. Armando. If you didn't roll the R's, he corrected you. So my first day, I'm detoxing, I'm sweating, trying not to take a dump when I cough, and I'm like, good morning, Armando. He goes, hey, get it right, fool, because that's not my name. My name's Armando. And I was like, all right, sorry. Forgive me, Armando. I didn't realize you were a jerk. Guy was all over me.
Brett
What was your choice that you had to get rid of? What was the thing that was snorting?
Jay Moore
Adderall.
Brett
Adderall was the one. I like Adderall, J.
Jay Moore
Me too.
Brett
You like it more than me.
Jay Moore
You ever snorted?
Brett
No, I have not. I've never.
Jay Moore
Orange Tang in the back of that nasal.
Brett
Needed to do that.
Jay Moore
Tastes like Tang.
Brett
No kidding. Yeah. I Don't need to snort it. But I only took. I only took it.
Jay Moore
Sure.
Brett
Yeah.
Jay Moore
Right before you fight.
Brett
Okay.
Jay Moore
You know, it's funny. I made amends to the owner of Fight Science, my boy Ian Harris. And he's. He used to bring me in to coach the strikers for when they hit the mat. Like, right. How to wrestle and jiu Jitsu stuff. And I remember once I. I went and made amends to him, and he's like, the two. There's these twins, and they're like, yeah, we were wondering, bro. Because you were like. Apparently, I'd go in there and be like, all right, everybody, listen up. Everybody against the wall. We're gonna do that. And I'd get halfway through my explanation. I'd be like, no, no, no. Scratch that. Everybody get on the ground. Everybody get on. You know what? Everybody lay on your right side. Like, I was just. I couldn't.
Brett
Nothing got done.
Jay Moore
I just couldn't finish a thought. You take it. They prescribe Adderall to help you concentrate, focus. And after. And eventually, it helped me focus on getting more Adderall.
Brett
And more and more.
Jay Moore
Hill math, just sitting on a plane going, okay, I got 14 pills that last me to the night, and this.
Brett
And I got 14 adderalls a day.
Jay Moore
I was probably doing eight or nine a day. I'd swallow a 30 right when I woke up. I'd snort 15 right after I swallowed. So that was my coffee.
Brett
Wow.
Jay Moore
I would take my kid to school, snort another 15 off my phone in the car, by the way, it's a half mile to school.
Brett
Oh, my God.
Jay Moore
And then. So that's. That's eight. So now we're at 8am and then you stay up all night. Yeah, I. Yeah, I got a little crazy.
Brett
I know you. I'm glad you're.
Brie Larson
How long did that last?
Jay Moore
Which one? The high.
Brie Larson
Adderall. When you got into it.
Jay Moore
Oh, it's. Going through a divorce was like the big sort of. I wanted to feel something other than sad.
Brett
Yep.
Jay Moore
So I got really going on that.
Brett
And.
Jay Moore
But I've been addicted to everything. I'm getting a call. That's right.
Brett
Is it important? Who is it sponsor? It's not J.J. redick or anybody.
Jay Moore
Let him drink.
Brett
Drink.
Jay Moore
But you're complaining, old man. Well, it's great, though, that you're older than me. Get your act together.
Brett
You're healthy and everything's good. And. And that's awesome to see. Which is my hotel.
Jay Moore
The pool has no water in it, so we're really. Anybody got a pool?
Brett
I Got a pool. You want to come over?
Jay Moore

Brett
Want to see my tower?
Jay Moore
Yeah, it's in a tree.

Jay Moore
No, I have no base.
Brett
I know, I know, I know. But it was Adderall. You should have been focused, and memory should not be an issue. No, it's not.
Jay Moore
I have no idea what we're doing.
Brett
I'm John, by the way. It's good to see you.
Jay Moore
I said John.
Brett
