Key Discussion Points & Insights

---

1. The Birth of KFC Radio and Its Callers

• Stoolie Voicemails Set the Tone

  • The show’s earliest episodes relied heavily on anonymous voicemails from listeners, creating a raw, unfiltered bar conversation atmosphere.
  • Kevin recalls (01:08) how the first episodes weren't structured by themes—callers simply "did like hypotheticals, would-you-rathers. There was not... like, sports talk or deep questions... just all silly like that. That's what the first episode's gonna be."

• A Legendary Hypothetical

  • The first ever episode featured the now-iconic hypothetical:
    "Would you rather walk around with one rollerblade on your left foot for the rest of your life, or always have a midget with a bad attitude walking just slightly slower in front of you?"
    • [01:08–02:04]
    • Kevin: "It was like, wholly unique. Never became a big thing, but it's like that's... creative and interesting."
  • This set a creative tone for an entire genre of podcast content—inventive, weird, and authentic to the Barstool audience.

• The Influence and Legacy of Callers

  • Kevin reflects on the "butterfly effect" of those earliest callers and how a handful of drunk Boston guys in dorms leaving hypothetical questions helped launch not only KFC Radio, but entire Barstool podcast brands.
    • *[126:19] Kevin Clancy: "There is probably, like, a handful of dudes who called into this show... not much of a claim to fame, but you could be like, 'I was one of the guys who, like the first podcast at Barstool... really started because of those dudes.'"

2. Absurd Pop Culture Digressions

• The Mormon ‘Fruity Pebbles’ Gossip

  • The crew goes on a wild tangent about a viral reality show where drama centers around a woman allegedly letting her husband drink her urine, with ‘Fruity Pebbles’ as the codeword.
    • Kevin: "Fruity Pebbles is piss. Her old ass husband is drinking her piss. Good night." [03:39]
    • John: "Wait, hang on. This whole room gonna pretend we wouldn't try piss?” [04:52]
    • The entire exchange is classic KFC Radio: deadpan honesty, escalating jokes, and zero filter on taboo subjects.
    • They even dissect the logistics: "Is it straight from the tap?... If it's sexual, usually it's more your face." [05:55–09:10]

• Reflections on Oversharing & Scandal in the Modern Age

  • The hosts muse on privacy, cancel culture, and how nothing embarrassing is private anymore—particularly among internet personalities and reality TV stars
    • Kevin: "Those are things that, you know, maybe in the short term... you can make it a little more reasonable with normal sex stuff... you can get your followers and that's a short term exchange for long term problems." [10:42]

---

3. Nostalgia and the End of an Era

• Emotional Responses to the Show Ending

  • Kevin shares genuine emotion over the overwhelmingly positive fan response to the show's end announcement—contrasting public hate versus private love:
    • “Public hate and private... ‘Hey, dude, I love you so much.’ Like, you could just tweet that!” [21:00]
    • John describes a DM: "'Thanks for KFC Radio. Without that, I wouldn’t have been introduced to better podcasts.’ And I was like, fuck this shit." [19:36]

• The Burden of Legacy

  • The hosts realize how many careers and relationships the show helped create—internally at Barstool and externally among comedians, fans, and the broader podcast scene.
    • Nick, a longtime producer, is credited for hiring several future key Barstool staff. [49:16]

• On ‘Grassroots’ Support and Changing Consumption

  • The group laments the modern attention span for podcasts:
    • "Podcasting, like, this podcast has become shows. Every podcast is a show now... The three hour rogue rambling, that's over for the normies." [95:34]

---

4. The Evolution of Podcasting (and Barstool)

• How KFC Radio Pioneered Listener-Driven Content

  • Kevin credits the Google Voice voicemail system for unlocking fan-driven episodes; Dave Portnoy initially praised the creative solution.
    • "This is a great idea. This is really smart. Like, let me know what comes of it." [98:24]
  • The Would-You-Rather, hypotheticals, and irreverent content style quickly became standard at Barstool and imitators.

• Gatekeeper & Launchpad Effect

  • Many later Barstool personalities, comedians, and editors got their start through KFC Radio.
    • "It was just a very big gate opening type show. Internally and externally." [49:27]

• Changing Fashions in Comedy

  • Discussing why ‘silly’ film comedies are rare now; the rise of character-based internet comedy over performance-based physical comedy.
    • Kevin: “Comedy is almost like 100%... reliant upon clever jokes, writing... instead of, like, it’s funny that, like, he’s a big guy in a little dress.” [73:59]
    • John: “There’s really no new girl at least... Nothing that’s that level right now. I think that’s... the internet. You’re following the influencer who’s doing this show.” [76:04]

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You know, it wasn't like, oh, there was one like this, but one was like sports talk. And one was a deep question. It was just all like, silly like that. And I didn't even think of it in the moment where I was like, if that's good or bad. I was like, it just is. That's. That's what the first episode's gonna be. And the very first episode had a very, like, unique and I think, like, timeless hypothetical that was. Would you rather walk around for the rest of your life with one rollerblade on your left foot? So you had to like scoot everywhere you went. Can't take it off. Gotta sleep with it, gotta shower with it, gotta go to work with it. Go to your grandma's funeral with it or. Good to go.

[John Feitelberg]

I already have to pee. I peed before the show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Just go pee.

[John Feitelberg]

Just so you know, I. No, I peed five minutes ago. I did. Before the show started. I went, I'm gonna pee so I don't have to have a pee break. And now that we're about to start.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

A show, I have to.

[Jackie]

Oh, we have to put up with this for like three more.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Actually, the real reason we're ending the.

[John Feitelberg]

Show is John's bladder.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

We couldn't none of us. He couldn't take it and we couldn't take it anymore. No, but for real, you have a prostate problem. Like, you might have prostate cancer. It's. There's. You're susceptible to it. We think your dad might have made that up and maybe had one of.

[Jackie]

Those things where it's like, you know how like old people, they like have basically a condom on?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

It's just a tank.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. We should have my gather hanging by the show. I'm just. I'm just mid story right here in my bed. Oh, my God, bro.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

While we're on the topic of. Of pee, do you watch the Mormon girls?

[Jackie]

Yes.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Reality show. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. For like the whole. And it's just like, they're basically like the Kardashians of the Mormon. Yeah. Which is funny because they're all Salt Lake City stuff. There's also Real Housewives of Salt. Different thing.

[John Feitelberg]

Okay.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

This is a whole bunch of girls who I think were like Latter Day Saints, like hardcore Mormon and now are not as crazy, but they still use the Mormon to be more Mormon. They all look exactly the same. They're all like hot but carbon copy. Like Kardashian face hair. The whole nine. Anyway, the whole series, multiple seasons now, they've been using this term, Fruity Pebbles, as like a code word and kind of like Fruity Pebbles. And I guess the Die Hards knew about this, but the casual fans are always like, what the does Fruity Pebbles mean? And it was the secret. And now these two girls started beefing. And so the one girl just added her secret and she went on Instagram and she was like. Because Demi is like talking that, like, I'll tell you, Fruity Pebbles is piss. Her old ass husband is drinking her piss. Good night. And then the girl in question. Why.

[John Feitelberg]

Why the nickname? How'd that come into play?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I have heard, and I don't know if the Internet made this up or if the show said it, but what I heard was like, if you eat Fruity Pebbles, it like. Like eating pineapple makes your come taste different. Like that sort of thing.

[John Feitelberg]

Eating fruity pellets make your piss taste good, apparently.

[Jackie]

I thought it was.

[John Feitelberg]

I got a hard time believing that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I don't. Well, I don't think it tastes like Fruity Pebbles.

[John Feitelberg]

What? That. That I'm more apt to believe where it's like, it tastes like a bunch of chemicals.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's got that red dye in it.

[Jackie]

There's no way, like, Fruity Pebbles has a nutri dream that Makes it pee.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, I can't imagine that.

[Jackie]

So I think it was like that he's. Apparently, he was, like, gulping it like water.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And then the girl posted a story on Instagram that just said what me and my husband did behind closed doors one time does not.

[John Feitelberg]

So it's like, if we're doing a one time thing, different story.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Here's what I said.

[John Feitelberg]

If he. If he's regularly gulping down pissed.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay. Let me tell you this. Let me tell you this, buddy.

[John Feitelberg]

A night where you're like, baby, I'm trying my piss.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think you're disgusting. I think.

[John Feitelberg]

Wait, hang on. This whole room gonna pretend we wouldn't try piss.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I would let. I will, I will. You can pee on me. I'll pee on you. I'm not drinking it.

[John Feitelberg]

I'll do anything.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I usually am with you. I'll do anything. I will literally not like, look, I won't. I will not consume any of your. Your. Yeah, you know, here's. Here's. I'll consume those and not that.

[John Feitelberg]

You know, I'll try. If you. If you propose the idea and you're like, yo, I want you to drink my piss. I would be like.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That'S a big ask, bro. No, no, no, no, wait. Actually, you're crazy. That's got to come the other way around.

[John Feitelberg]

What?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You got to be like, I want to drink your piss.

[John Feitelberg]

That for sure.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But if.

[John Feitelberg]

I don't know, whatever your fucking free code is, like, if you want to do it, bring it up to me. I'll try. I can't. Like, I'm not even saying I would. It would touch my lips. I'm saying I would. I'd get it to here and then.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Wait, you're talking about drinking out of.

[Jackie]

A cup or is it free?

[John Feitelberg]

How else would you drink it?

[Jackie]

Yeah, that's what I. Oh, we're drinking it right?

[John Feitelberg]

From the tap.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think so. Right.

[John Feitelberg]

I think they're in the hose.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right. From the hose.

[Jackie]

It's one of those, like, it's too many steps.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

There's so many. This chick's pissing her husband's mouth.

[Jackie]

Yeah. Where it's.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I. I actually think it's almost probably easier to drink from the tap on that in that regard.

[Jackie]

Yeah. Because then it gets, like, clinical. Then you're trying to pee in a cup and. And then it's like, what is this drug test moment?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And then. Yeah. So that you've got to awkwardly, like, sit there. As we know. It's like a leaky faucet. It's coming out of the spigot like crazy. That's a mess. And then, like, here you go. And then you have to pick it up. That's too many. You're right. It's too many. There's too many. Too much opportunity to go, hang on, wait a minute.

[Jackie]

Because I have.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

In the heat of the moment, in the heat of the moment, some girl, like, throws me down and just goes. I'm going to be like, I don't know what happened, but okay, but if it's like, ready? Are you thirsty?

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Disaster. Can you believe this podcast is that day? Where else are you going to get this?

[John Feitelberg]

Where else are you going to get this? My only thing is if. If it's straight from the tap. You're not really asking me to drink your piss. You're asking to piss on my head.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That I would be more cool with than drinking your piss. Okay, for sure, you can piss on my head.

[John Feitelberg]

But, yeah, yeah, no, absolutely. I'm way cooler with you pissing on my head. That's kind of fun. But, like, I'm just saying. I wouldn't. I wouldn't say. Maybe this chick said it because she's trying to make him seem grosser. But, like, I wouldn't say, oh, oh, you pissed on my head.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So I actually think, as much as I was making fun of you, I think it is a cup situation. Because she also said he drinks that, like, dirty soda, which is another thing from the Mormon culture. They're not allowed to have. They're not allowed to have coffee. So. Yes. Yeah, yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

We had this on Sunday morning.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So they drink soda. Yeah. But they'll put creamer and all that stuff. They call it dirty soda. And the way she said he gulps it down, the dirty soda would, to me, imply, like, a cup. Like. Yeah, I mean, she could be.

[John Feitelberg]

If you're using the word gulp, I can't gulp from a.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, no, because you'd have to, like, let it fill up and then go, that's. That's.

[John Feitelberg]

That sound.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Was. I, I. I think I can understand the appeal of it. Like, peeing on my head.

[John Feitelberg]

Trust me, I get the appeal of taking a piss on my head.

[Jackie]

Do you mean on your face or on your head?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

There is a funny distinction there.

[John Feitelberg]

If you're pissing on someone's hair, that's disrespect.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's like, I'm peeing on you to degrade you. If I'm pissing on your face, that's like a sexual thing.

[John Feitelberg]

There's probably more people in this world who want to piss on my head than want to fuck me.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think if you've ever experienced any sort of squirting insects, you're like next door neighbor. You know, Once you've done that and you're, if you're into it, I think I could see the next step because you basically already are. You know what I mean?

[John Feitelberg]

You're 100 already there.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Well, no.

[John Feitelberg]

Already been down this path.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

We have, we've done it all. That's, that's why the show needs. Then we've done this all.

[John Feitelberg]

But yeah, I, I, I, we're talking about. It's your getting your head pissed. That's Mormon. Oh man.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But so I just thought it was so funny the way she like, cop to it being like, what, what happens behind closed doors one time is like between a man and a woman, it's like, okay, piss her.

[John Feitelberg]

Okay. The idea of it being again, straight from the tap is, is funny because like, she's got a, she's got to pop a leg up for that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Like you're doing something awkward.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You're going to go, Captain Morgan on my head.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That means you've got to get down. She's got to get up.

[John Feitelberg]

You think it's a process pissing into a cup drive your wife in the shower. I'm still confused.

[Jackie]

You guys keep saying on my head. I'm so confused logistically. What are you picturing?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I, I think when you're thinking, when it's sexual, it think it's more usually like face.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

If it's like the top of your head. If you're like peeing on your husband's bald spot, you've got. I don't want to kick shame, but you got. That's too much, man. That's too much. I just like that, you know, the, the, the, the, the very common trope these days is we should all know less about each other. Like, that's one you should probably keep in the holster, you know? Yeah. Like, I'm sure she ran to her girlfriends and gossiped and it's like that one. I don't think so.

[John Feitelberg]

That's like the. I think it's Louis CK's like, sorry, maybe, but one of his specials post cancel canceling. He starts off with like, he's like, yeah, so everyone knows my thing. We've all got a thing. You know how you all have a thing and no one knows what it is? Obama knows mine. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like, those are things that, you know, maybe in the short term, and this is an extreme case, but, you know, you can make it a little more reasonable with normal sex stuff or preferences of any kind. People say this on a podcast to get views or like, I'm gonna get my followers and that's a short term exchange for long term problems. You know, Like, I'm sure it. It took a while for this to come out, it seems like. Right, yeah. So in the beginning, you just told your girlfriends and everyone's kind of. And you don't anticipate that you're gonna have a bridge burning type feud with them one day and they're gonna tell the whole world. But also, you know what's so crazy? It doesn't matter. No, none of this matters. Like, like anybody who's ever.

[John Feitelberg]

I already don't know who we're talking about.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah. But like, you know, anybody who's had a sex scandal or nudes leak or any of that stuff that's like really embarrassing not to say that in the moment for a month or maybe years, even after. Especially if you're a woman and you really felt violated, like, whatever. I'm sure that you have deep rooted issues, but is there any story, can you think of anybody where it's like they were on top and then like there was a sex tape and they went down, usually go up. Yeah, I don't think it's ever hurt anybody. Unless you were doing something like criminal. That's a whole different story. Maybe if it's just like you're into some kinky, what's up?

[Jackie]

I said, like, maybe in the Mormon culture.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think if anything, those are the kinkiest, you know. Yeah, you're soaking.

[Jackie]

And I think that also, like with Secret Lives of Mormonwise, like the smile that they have on all their faces kind of slightly when drama goes down makes me think that, like, they get paid, the more drama that occurs.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

This is what I mean, though. It's like, I'm sure, I'm sure when Hulu's like, we're gonna pay her this much per episode, you this much episode. And you're like, well, how can I get my numbers up? There you go. And that's also why I get a little bit woke to some of this where I'm like, I don't know, you can fabricate this sort of stuff or, you know what I mean? Pretty like that. That's an extreme one. But I also, I don't know, I think I've learned that, like, there is nothing that people won't do for money and fame. Someone was like, yo, you're gonna get cut from the show or what? If we made the storyline and now you're like the focal point, we'll give you some money. I guarantee there's more people than not that would say yes to that.

[John Feitelberg]

Imagine that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Imagine the producers being. No, we're just gonna. You don't have to do it. We're just gonna make them in the storyline. No, that's okay. I'll drink it. I'll drink it.

[John Feitelberg]

I'm gonna do it. I'm doing a method.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay.

[Jackie]

Daniel Day Lewis, this shit said, like, the. The whole Fruity Pebbles thing went down. Season one where they were like, oh, like Fruity Pebbles. And she was like, don't tell them. Don't tell them. So everyone knew.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So then I assume that it was something. Or they knew what it was.

[Jackie]

They knew it was something sexual in the bedroom involving Fruity Pebbles. I assume it was kind of like this.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

A sexual tab.

[Jackie]

What?

[John Feitelberg]

I don't even know if it gets a. If it gets a full.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Sexual. Pissing on someone.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, it's more like.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think it's pretty sexual. It's sexual. If you're pissing on someone outside of sex, you're really disrespectful.

[John Feitelberg]

Something else.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

It's not just sexual.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right, Right.

[John Feitelberg]

You're right. Like penis and vagina sexual.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's sexual. Penis and butthole sexual. Penis and mouth sexual pissing.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, we'll do a little sexual. Sure.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. But there's mostly weird.

[John Feitelberg]

Like a dirty soda. We're sprinkling other stuff.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, it's. It's sex plus.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's not. It's not completely devoid of sex, but that ain't the defining characteristic.

[John Feitelberg]

There's more.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

There's more going on. Are you. I feel like I see so much anti porn stuff these days that it makes me question. I'm like, should I stop? I don't know. Is that just my algorithm? I don't know. I see. I see a lot of, like, porn is the root of, like, all evil and relationship problems and, like, get porn out of your life and your marriage will be better and all these things. And I'm like, I think I have a normal relationship with it, but it's almost like when people are like, don't do heroin. It's really bad. I'm like, should I just stay away from this? Like, I don't know. Like, I think I could. I think I could dabble in this. Your boy Feidalberg just wrapped up his arena tour.

[John Feitelberg]

[Jackie]

Do we have like a bucket list for like, stuff we want to get done?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, no, I don't think we really do.

[John Feitelberg]

PABS has a lot of stuff. I was thinking we'll do like an hour regular and then we switch after.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah, I, I think there's for sure some things to talk about, but I think as far as this becoming a like, organized farewell tour, I don't think that's going to be happening. I had grand plans.

[John Feitelberg]

You've seen us for the last 15 years. Right?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

It's not exactly.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

We're gonna finish how we started.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Disorganized and letting it fly.

[John Feitelberg]

Imagine if we got organized now.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, I will tell you this much. Let me say this. I will say this. The. I. I made a video about this as well, so if you saw that. I'm repeating myself, but whenever I see someone being like, I was so overwhelmed by the response, like, oh, my God. I'm always like, whatever, dude. I was genuinely overwhelmed by that response. I did not see that coming. I did not expect it to be as positive as it was, and maybe I'm stupid for that, but I was. I was. I was nervous about it because I was like, I. I just. I get so much hate that. I genuinely was like, I don't. I was not worried, but I was like. I felt bad for you guys. I was like, I think so much of the hate that I get is towards me. And then when we announced the show's gonna end, I was just like, I just don't want John and Jackie and Pavs and my brother and Nick, anybody who's a part of it to, like, get that hate, too.

[John Feitelberg]

You know, Just so you know, that was never a concern.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Yeah, I know. This is all. These are all. This is my stuff.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You know, like Louis says, you got a thing.

[John Feitelberg]

I gotta think.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I got some things I know about, so. And. And now looking back on it, I'm like, yeah, that was silly of me to ever, like, worry that much. But I. I feel like I'm going through, like, all the phases of almost, like, the seven stages of grieving in a way of, like. I was nervous about it, then I was relieved. Then when we did it, I was emotional. Bittersweet.

[John Feitelberg]

Were you emotional saying it?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was.

[John Feitelberg]

I saw the clip, and I saw you pause, and I was like, oh, that was not.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was nervous. I. I thought I was fine. So we made the decision over the summer, and then I was fine. And then with, like, two weeks, the past two weeks, I. I realized this is weighing on me way more than I. Than I thought. Like, I. I was, like, having some nightmares. And, like, not, like, literally about this, but I started having nightmares. And that usually means when I'm, like.

[John Feitelberg]

Walking around like a Leo in the Aviator, bringing them out, bringing the mail.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, it was more just like, I wasn't sleeping, and that usually was a sign of, like, stress. And then something happened where? Oh, I was talking to Shay. I was explaining it to Shay, and I got emotional. I was, like, starting to tear up, and I was like, oh, if I'm. If I'm like this and I do it and maybe like the actual last episode, I'll be like more emotional. But as I was doing it, I, I did get emotional, but not like, I was like, I don't think I'm gonna get through this almost. And then I was okay. But yeah, there was a moment and also that was a pause of like, I still don't quite know how to do this because I am cripplingly awkward talking about myself.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You know, and so it's a little bit hard because I do want to reminisce and be like, look how awesome this was. But I hate to be the guy being like, look how awesome this was. So it was nice that other people were doing it. That. That was my favorite part of that response was that like, I was really overwhelmed by how many fans and people here. Like everybody at barstool was quote, tweeting it. You know what Marty said to me though?

[John Feitelberg]

I had the exact opposite, by the way.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Really?

[John Feitelberg]

Well, not the exact. And like I, I knew it was getting attention because we were texting about it and stuff like that. And I was, I had like, I saw my DMS were filling up and I started to feel like, bad. I started to be like, oh, like this is kind of rude of me to just like, I don't know, I'm sure people are being nice and, and saying moments that were important to them and like, I should fucking just reply to people and like, go look. And I, the first DM I opened just said thanks for KFC Radio. Without that, I wouldn't have been introduced to better podcasts. And I was like, fuck this shit. I fucking hate.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That. I would rather drink piss than read that. That is a literally.

[John Feitelberg]

That's rude. That is literally the only response to our show getting canceled, by the way.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Funny. I give that person credit.

[John Feitelberg]

Funny, infuriating, but funny.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

All of that. That is so unbelievably rude. That is so rude. I respect it.

[John Feitelberg]

I was shocked, dude. I was so mad. I was like, like I was trying to be nice one time. I'm trying to listen to people.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I, I really, we really did have the most opposite then because I, I woke up early that morning cuz as soon as I rolled over, I was like, oh, today's the day. So I just couldn't go back to sleep. And people, I don't know, I guess we put the podcast up at like 6am I don't know. I was getting DMS, like early and I was like, I'm gonna reply to these people. Like, they were all like, like you said, it was very like, you know, some of the heavy stuff. It got me through a tough time, all that. And so I was like, thank you, I appreciate it. Like, it really, like, the positivity means a lot. I, and I wasn't even cutting and pasting. I was like writing to everybody. And I, I, like, I, I'm sorry if I didn't reply to you because I had to stop eventually. I was like, this is, I can't believe how nice people are being. I will say what sucks as much as there is. There was, it was a lot publicly nice. Everyone's always privately nice. Yeah, it's public hate and private. Hey, dude, I love you so much. Like, you could just tweet that. You don't have to do a dm. We could just put that there so other people know.

[Jackie]

The comments on the last YouTube, it's all, it's like hundreds.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So part of my, like, grieving stages, if you will, is there was a part of me that I was like, everyone's like, no, don't go. And like, you know, how could we make this? How could we keep it going? I'm like, subscribe. When I tell you, subscribe. Buy a ticket, buy a shirt to tell your friends. Post a link. Like, this is what I need you to do to keep it going. But obviously that's not fair either, because I was thinking, you know the way I don't do that for my favorite shows. You just consume it and enjoy it.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

People publicly hate privately love.

[John Feitelberg]

And I remember thinking about that with mascots when it was coming out. And I had to keep reminding myself, like, this is the most important thing in the world to you. No one else really cares. And like, you can't demand that from them. And it, it worked and it was, it helped it through it. But it is like, you think because it's art, like, subscribe. Why wouldn't you subscribe? But I will say I do subscribe.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I do too.

[John Feitelberg]

I'm a subscriber.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I, I, I, I, I don't use.

[John Feitelberg]

I get pretty goddamn annoyed when I get the push notifications from YouTube that a new video drops. Nonetheless, I'm more of a follower.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I will follow you. You like, if I watch one of your videos, I usually kind of have a rule of, if your video is great, I will, I'll give you another video. Like, I'll click into your profile.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And be like, was that just like a one hit wonder or is this what you do? Or is there more? And if I watch a second, if it's enough for me, like, click a second video and not just be like, all right, never mind. That sucked. I'll follow you. I might follow you and mute you, whatever. But, like, you know, I know how much I. I see it more on instagram. I get 770 of all my views are from non followers, which is like the dream, because that means you're reaching new people. And. And. But they're just not following. So I'm like, if. If set, if that's 70%, if I got, like 10 of them to follow me, it'd be massive numbers, you know? So I do. I make an effort to. And if I was. If I used YouTube more, I would probably subscribe. But I feel like I. I walk the walk after I say that.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, but I.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But I do get that, you know, it's not like, your job as a fan to, like, make sure we're successful, you know?

[John Feitelberg]

Right.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I. I would think that I, I really. I think that our die hards, like, our grassroots people, like, feel that way. And, you know, there's a couple guys out there that dude Cie has bought, like, every shirt we've ever made. You know, Mario has made Wally. Mario's made, like, tons of edits for us. Like, those people, I think are, like, trying, you know, and the rest are just like, I like it. You know, and any variation of that is. Is very, very welcome. But I, I, Marty. So I came in today. I was sitting with Marty and Nate before we were recording, and I was talking about it, and I was like, you know, I was really floored by all you guys saying it. And Marty goes, yeah, you guys. Your podcast was like, the Black Square. Remember that? On Instagram? Oh, I did the same thing too. I was like, what's that? He's like, remember when you had to post the Blackout for, like, Black Lives Matter?

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. And it was like, if you don't post it, you're the. Like, I feel like people thought they had to do it. I was like, where? The Black Square. Black Lives Matter and KFC Radio.

[John Feitelberg]

That's right.

[Jackie]

Also, you guys said in the last podcast, like, nobody even thought about texting. Like, are you sure we should do this if it makes a difference? Like, I thought multiple times to send, like, you sure. But I didn't. I knew that you guys would worry. Like, I'm worried about my job and want you guys to worry.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You're good, by the way. You guys are good. Like, there's gonna be work to be done. I. I don't know if we ever had that discussion.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

That was like the most important thing.

[Jackie]

Mostly concerned about me and paths at first. And I was like. And we were like, why. Why are you always talking about.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, yeah, I. I always. I mean, I've. For years I've thought about, like, should we change things? Should we end things all. Just all those things, you know, And I. I never did it earlier. Well, for a bunch of reasons, but one of the reasons I was like, this would up too many people's jobs.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And now I feel like we're all in a spot where there's other going on and work to be done, no matter what, you know, but also, like, I mean, this is. I think it's. I think when we get going, I think people are going to realize that it's just like, it might be a little more of your thing and then my thing, but, like, you're gonna get. Yeah, yeah. You're gonna get us. It's not like we're like, gone, you know? But I. I was. It was a lot easier to do it knowing that, like, you guys can go work on out of Order, whatever that may be. You're doing Fishbowl, you're doing the reality shows. You have your thing. Like, it's. You know, there's work to be done, no matter. Outside of this.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So that made it easier for sure.

[John Feitelberg]

That was. That was the main thing.

[Jackie]

What.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Who.

[John Feitelberg]

Who just said that? It was. Was it you? Who said. Who just said, like, we didn't know if we talked about this?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I. Yeah, I. I don't remember if we did or not.

[John Feitelberg]

We were like, you guys are good.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Like, because I. I just got some people be like, well, what happens? Jackie and Pav. And I was like, wait, do we. We do they know that we're good?

[Jackie]

No, No. I feel like you guys and I.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I did get a lot of those texts. Like, are you. Are you okay, guys? I think right then you start, am I.

[Jackie]

Am.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I don't know. They said so, but there is still, like, I don't know.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Listen, we could fall in our faces. Then you're.

[John Feitelberg]

For all I know, December, we lose our jobs. I'm sitting here assuring you. I'm like, we're fine.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

There's like, there's three scenarios. It's either, like, we go on and thrive. We. We lose our jobs, or we just do this again.

[John Feitelberg]

Never mind. We're back. We're back.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It was all a joke.

[John Feitelberg]

It was all a bit. Dude, you were talking about Shay and, and telling her just about the podcast. And I kind of similar situation this weekend where I was at the. I was at a Bruins game with my nephew and if I'm not getting recognized at a Bruins game, I'm in big trouble. So they were like, a lot.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's a good litmus test to like walk in and be like, oh, I'm fucked. Yeah, my career'.

[John Feitelberg]

And there were like a lot of people coming up and talking to me and taking pictures, stuff like that. And he was like, he's like, why do you have so many fans? And I was like, I don't know, like, I guess, like from my job. He's like, what do you do?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

How old is he, by the way?

[John Feitelberg]

10.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay.

[John Feitelberg]

And I was like. I was like. I was like, ah, man, it's kind of hard to describe. It's like, it's like a talk show and celebrities will come on.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You ever drink piss, kid?

[John Feitelberg]

And they'll, they'll talk about like their movies and their TV shows and they'll promote stuff like that. He just looks at me, goes, you mean like a podcast? It's like, I don't know why I'm talking to you. Like, you're 90. That's funny. That's really funny. Yeah, no, that's exactly what.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So you're a content creator, right? You're an Internet influencer. That's very funny. Oh, you have a Patreon. I'll subscribe to your Patreon.

[John Feitelberg]

On the T. On the way in, I. I had stopped. I got an uncrustable because I was really hungry and I ate it on the tea on the way in. And then at one point, I was just standing up talking to him. Then he goes, you got a lot of jelly on you. I had three different spots of jelly on my sweatshirt. You got a lot of jelly on you.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

From a 10 year old is.

[John Feitelberg]

He goes, you got a lot of jelly on you. And 20 minutes later he's like, you mean a podcast? You're watching me. That kid goes home, he's like, my uncle is. Let me hang out with Uncle John anymore. He's got a lot of fans in the bathroom at the Bruins Cave.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

What is. Who's got smaller? Me.

[John Feitelberg]

The other, other like dumb little funny story I had to tell was the. At Thanksgiving, my dad gets up from the table, from, from lunch or whatever meal you call it. He comes back like 10 minutes later and I was just like.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I said, where'd you go?

[John Feitelberg]

He Goes halftime show. I was like, for the Lions backers game, I was like, I was like, what?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like the Eminem Jack White things.

[John Feitelberg]

He goes, 7 minutes Jack White and Eminem just shredded. And I was like, dude, what are you talking about? I was like, you just got up from Thanksgiving for a 10 minute Jack White concert.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Just like sitting in the other room by himself.

[John Feitelberg]

Just like, it's like, I'll be back in a minute. Can't miss Jack White.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It was a good show.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, I missed it. I heard it was a great show. He put on a show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, that's, that is like, like he.

[John Feitelberg]

Had food on, on his plate and he got up and I was like, we just go, halftime show was.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Bro. I, I, this like somehow happened to me like half by design, half by accident, but it was all very fitting. I was at the kids table for Christmas. I, I was at a friend's giving, this is I guess a couple weeks ago, so I wasn't Thanksgiving, but before that. And one of my, one of my friend's kids is, I think he's 11, he's the first kid of the bunch. And he's like a sports savant. Like he can you, I can, you can talk, you can have sports conversation with this kid. Like, like I would, you know, anybody else. And so he goes, can you, can you sit with me? And we got food first. And I was like, I'm like, I say no, yeah, yeah, for sure.

[Jackie]

Isn't even a shame Keegan thing.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, it was not my kids, My kids were not here. They were with their mom. I went to a friends giving.

[John Feitelberg]

Everyone brought their kids and I was.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I did bring mine and so, so I, and, and I, me and him started the food. I, I, when people are like, food's ready, I go get the food. Like when people like move to the table like it's time to eat, I.

[John Feitelberg]

Go, I just like, let's get.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So when we sat down, it was empty, but because I sat with an 11 year old, all the kids like filled in around them and I didn't realize what was going on until, wait, let me see if I can find the video. I, I, I, I wanted to post this, but it someone else's kids but, but this I, I, I didn't realize what was happening until I looked up and oh man, this is gonna be hard to find. I looked up and this kid was, he had a piece of ziti. Some people brought spaghetti and meatballs too. So he had ziti and he was using it like a whistle. He was just Like. Like whistling in and out through the hole. And I'm, like, eating, and I look up, and this kid's just staring at me, going through his penne vodka. And he kind of looked like almost.

[John Feitelberg]

Like the kids Frankie Borelli gift.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Kind of.

[John Feitelberg]

Yes, I'm gonna.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I'll try to find it. But it was like. It was very similar to, like, fuller at the. The table of Home Alone with Buzz and fuller, like, when he's drinking the water. Like, I would have pissed the bed. He was just looking at me, and I was like, ethan, I was like, oh, that's weird. My kid's fucking being weird. And then I, like, looked down, up and down the table, and it was just me and, like, 30 kids. And then I. And I see them, and I see my friends are all, like, filming me and me, like, look at this kid at the kids table. Meanwhile, I was just face down, shoveling meatballs into my mouth with kids. I was like, man, if this ain't the most fitting in the world, dude, at the goddamn kids table for life. It was so good, man.

[John Feitelberg]

The. I got. I got one more funny story from the weekend that I forgot to tell.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Wait, hang on. I'm sorry. I found it.

[John Feitelberg]

Just looking. Just have you breathing. He's doing it.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was like, oh, wait, keep doing that. The.

[John Feitelberg]

The. With Bert. Well, one more funny thing. The. There's a security incident at one of the shows.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah. You did tell that one, right?

[Jackie]

What?

[John Feitelberg]

When we went to dinner after, when.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The woman was like, look away, look away.

[John Feitelberg]

I told a story.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah, I. I know it. So maybe you didn't tell it on the air.

[John Feitelberg]

Oh, I must have told on the air then. Maybe you know it. Yeah, Yeah.

[Jackie]

I don't know it.

[John Feitelberg]

You believe.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You definitely told it to me. Okay.

[Jackie]

I listened to the episode.

[John Feitelberg]

Oh, I must have told it off air.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay.

[John Feitelberg]

So the. I told the story a bunch this weekend, and it was funny, so I'm gonna tell it again. The. The security incident at one of the shows. And it was. It wasn't a big deal by any stretch of the imagination. It was just kind of like someone accidentally stumbled into the green room.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And it's kind of a big deal when you're talking about Bert Kreischer, though. Yeah, no, because you don't know crazy people out there.

[John Feitelberg]

Genuinely, it. It is an issue. But, like, with Bert, he's like. He's very cool about it, but, like, so there was a security incident where people got into the green room and. And, like, 20 minutes later, it all got resolved, all taken care of, not a big deal. But then we're getting into an Uber. Or they call them like your runner. Like, basically when you. When you have a venue, because we have a bus when we want to go get stuff, like, someone just gives us a ride.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

And so, like, the runner was bringing us to dinner after the security incident and all this stuff and everything had been resolved. Everything was good. But in the car, we were still talking about it because it was a big moment and we're laughing about it more than anything, but we're talking about security a lot for like a 20 minute drive. And our runner is like just a central casting Midwestern woman.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like, let me just ask a question. Is the runner like a hired person for the weekend or something or is just like a one time Uber ride?

[John Feitelberg]

I. I think, I think the venue kind of just hires them to have them waiting there.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So, okay, so she's going into it. Like, I need to take care of Berkreicher.

[John Feitelberg]

Yes.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay. For sure.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I'm driving. Oh, it happens to be burnt. Like, you know what you're getting into, you guys? Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

And like, Bert's sitting shotgun. I'm sitting in the back. Everyone else, like, I'm sitting right behind Burt. And like, we're all just kind of laughing about the situation. Like, that was fucking nuts. Like, how do you have such bad security? Talking about security a lot. And the runner can tell we're talking about, like, from her perspective. She's. This is our first time in the car. All she knows about us is these guys really fucking care about security.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Also, for all she knows, could have been like, someone snuck in with a gun or something like that. She's like, it was a problem.

[John Feitelberg]

Apparently, like, we hadn't mentioned security in two weeks, but on this moment, we're talking about security a lot. And I'm sitting behind back here, and I can see her keep looking over, like, nervous. Like, she's like, these guys, security is a big thing to them. And she keeps looking over like, oh, God.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Oh, God.

[John Feitelberg]

And finally, she finally goes, wouldn't have happened if I was there, sir. And the whole car is like, wait, what? You don't have to do a Wahlberg thing about this. Like, we're kind of just joking about the security and stuff like that. And we get to the restaurant, which is closed. It had been closed all day. It was never open at any point on that Sunday. And I just tell you that to tell you how few people were around. And we get there she throws the car into park. She looks over and goes, I'll secure the scene.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

We're all like, skirt the perimeter.

[John Feitelberg]

We're like, wait, it's midnight in the middle of nowhere. There's one guy on the street. No line outside city is this again, Peoria.

[Jackie]

I'm Picturing, like, Melissa McCarthy and Brad.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Exactly. Picture exactly that.

[John Feitelberg]

Out of the car, like, before we even have a second to be, like, wait, the scene's fine. She gets out of the car. She's going, no photos. No photos. And there's one guy on the wall smoking a cigarette, looking like, what the fuck are you talking about? And so we're, like, stumbling out of the van, like, sorry, we didn't tell her to say any of this. Not what this is supposed to be. And as I'm about to be the last one in, she grabs me by the wrist and, like, Gil looks me in the eye, like, very sincerely. And it's like, I will be here for you whenever you need me. And I was like, okay, sounds good. See you later. And about an hour and a half into dinner, I go smoke a cigarette. She's there. I get. I said, no, she's gone. I was like, I wouldn't have even expected you to be here had you not told me you'd be here. But you told me you'd be here, so now where the fuck are you?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You should have that conversation with the next runner at cfa. I will be there for you. Just keep carrying this everywhere you go. The thought of, like, just a, like, pitch black Peoria and her being like, no. Walking with you like a human wall, like, I will shield. I'll take a bullet for you. Like the goddamn Secret Service.

[John Feitelberg]

It was very.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Who else was on the road with you at that point?

[John Feitelberg]

Blandford, Kyle and Alex.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Have you seen Blandford's take on I fucking love her? Coastal idiots attend Coastal. And that's. So that's her and Shane.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's a great duo. So she has a clip out right now about getting the ick from a man, and she went skiing with him. And she said her whole family skis, which I wouldn't have thought that, by the way.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, she made. We were talking about it. We were talking about skiing over the weekend, and she. She skied in, like, West Virginia. So did more hills. But she's talking about this mountain, Snowshoe Mountain in West Virginia, where all the resorts and hotels are the top of the mountain. And that's very unique. Obviously. Like, usually they're at the bottom.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So you take It. So at the end of the day.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, you take your last ride. It's like, going up. And she's like, it's a really cool part. Like, have a drink and watch the snowfall.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was gonna say it's probably a better view and all that.

[John Feitelberg]

I want to go. Despite the fact that I don't think it's really, like, good skiing. Yeah, I want to go and just, like, spend a week.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But even if you don't ski, so. So her point was she. She went skiing with a guy who didn't. Has never skied before, and she was like, oh, it's cool. Like, I'll teach you. But her whole family skis, so she's always just been around people who ski. And she said after watching him be bad at it, then she was like, this is the most unattractive thing I've ever seen. And it was more not just that, like, you're not allowed to be bad at things, but it was more like when all of the men in your life can do something and you just take it for granted and then you see someone struggling. Because I was gonna say, you don't have to do, like, double black diamonds to know how to, like, get your boots and your skis easily. And, you know, like, things like that, where I'd be like, oh, I can't. Like, do. You know, it's like second nature to people. Ski whether you're on a blue square or a black diamond. And she was saying, like, I'm done with that guy. Of course the comments are like, oh, there's a woman who's, like, not even willing to teach a man something like that. And, And. And I think the caption or the comments, like, this is the one. This is it. Like, they're coming for Catherine.

[John Feitelberg]

But, like, I. I.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Perspective, absolutely.

[John Feitelberg]

And, like, I honestly, I kind of see it in the other way.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, we're talking about sexist stuff. Like, when I meet a girl who can't cook, like, what do you mean you can't cook? Like, everyone in my family knows how to cook. This is the one they're coming for.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

John.

[John Feitelberg]

It's the same exact thing. I get that it would sound offensive and all that stuff, but, like, I'm like, what do you mean? Second, every woman I've ever met loves cooking, loves baking. Like, it surprises me. I don't break up with you right away, but.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The ick is so funny because it's. It's. It's been given this term, and it's kind of a joke, but it's like the. The realest and most unfortunate thing.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

When. When it really. When, you know, if it's not just like, oh, that kind of bothers me. When you can no longer look at someone the same way, and, you know, it's something superficial or stupid or, you know, it's very harsh for you to have that opinion, but you can't help how you feel. It's like, I used to. It's like the same thing as, like, you know, you're chasing a girl and then you have sex with her. You're like, I actually don't like you that much. You know, it's like, I don't want it. I didn't think this was gonna happen. I really didn't expect this. And I can't change how I feel. I really didn't think that you struggling with your skis was going to be a problem, but it is.

[John Feitelberg]

I. And on the same thing, I've had John's like, you.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You leave the kitchen.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. You don't just stay barefoot in the kitchen.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Where's my sandwich?

[John Feitelberg]

In my blowjob, lady. All the women in my life, this is the same thing. It's the same thing as Catherine's thing.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It is.

[John Feitelberg]

I think Catherine's point is very valid. It is surprising to see things that your whole life. People do and they do differently. You can.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

This woman can read.

[John Feitelberg]

You have your own bank account. What's going on?

[Jackie]

More like, I can't believe I. Like, I took this for granted. And I. She recognized her. Yours is just like, woman should be in the kitchen.

[John Feitelberg]

No, I'm saying literally the exact same thing. Like, it surprises me. I'm like, what do you mean? Like? Like, yeah. My grandmother had a catering company, like every woman in my life. My sisters cook all the time. Like, it's just what they do. They hate sports and they love cooking. Those are the women in my life. Women. Yeah. Not the way nearly the way God.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Intended it.

[John Feitelberg]

But the. On the opposite. I've taken a woman skiing, and I'm.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like, yeah, you should know how to do this.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. Because the woman in my life don't know how to ski.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, my mom, I nearly snowboards. But my mom, my sister skis. But neither of them are, like, not like how we ski.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right.

[John Feitelberg]

It's a very.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You're, like, really skiing? Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, my mom will go out.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I also think there's a. Just an overall to be sexist about it. Like, if you take a girl to go do, like a sport. I don't think most People expect that to be the case, whereas I think guys are expected to be at least, like, can handle themselves, you know, like, if.

[John Feitelberg]

If, like, scheme where I'm just like, but yeah, no, you don't know how to do this.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Objectively is one of the craziest things that society.

[John Feitelberg]

She was from Latin America too, so I just kept tackling her. Whenever she'd get going too fast, I would just. She's like, I can't stop. I can't stop her. I'm like, I mean, the fact that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The society, a huge, huge industry, like, millions of people are like, let's put these, like, water skis on our feet and slide down the ice. We're just gonna go really fast down this mountain and then go up and do it again.

[Jackie]

I always said that I would want to obviously live in Tahoe for like a month or two. And I always said, like, oh, now.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That you're out of job, you can go do that. Yeah, Can I do that this summer? This winter ain't got to do after January.

[Jackie]

I mean, but I still have to, like, you know, I think I gotta run it by. By some people.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, we'll have to work out the budget and stuff, but can I do it? Yes, bro. You are in control of your own life now, guys. Yeah, you're on your own, dude.

[John Feitelberg]

Never mind. Don't want that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But, yeah, you should. Wait, what were you gonna say, though? You said, can I just go? Oh, that was the point of your. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes. Yes.

[Jackie]

It's kind of calling my bluff. I kind of was always like, if stuff freed up for work, time.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Time to be free.

[Jackie]

Yeah, okay.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Fly away, little bird. I. One of the funny things that I texted John about this, I. I really had no expectations for the. The farewell thing. Like, I said, there was only one thing that I, like, kind of wanted. And on I mentioned how I've been listening to the Joe Budden Show a lot of. And one of the things they do, because Joe has been in it, I think, as long as we have, maybe like a year or two before, after, like right around the same time. And so he has this running segment where when podcasts are canceled, he plays another One Bites the Dust and he gives like a eulogy almost. And it's always, like, backhanded compliments.

[John Feitelberg]

And he gets to play music on his podcast.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, they play it, but they take it off YouTube. But they. But on the audio, they. They just play music. The part of their. I mean, it's a music podcast, so part of their is just they just will listen to like a new song on an album and be like, review it. And like, boy, wouldn't that be nice? We couldn't do that with audio. Right.

[Jackie]

I was gonna ask Camo if we could do.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I mean, they played like whole albums on that show. Like, not YouTube, but on. On audio. They. Yeah, the Greatest show was. I mean, there was a time I remember being afraid that, like, we were gonna lose our entire catalog because, like, hundreds of episodes had the greatest Showman song on it. And then we're gonna take all this down.

[John Feitelberg]

All that stuff. I. I never. I, like, I agree with the Internet, like, laws catching up to the Internet, like, I'm for all that, but to retroactively do everything is great. Like, Like, I totally understand that. Like, I was allowed to say the.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

N word back then.

[John Feitelberg]

Right.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You can't get me in trouble for it now.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, record labels have been obviously catching up and, and doing the DMCA and stuff like that. I. I genuinely do. I understand. I get it. I. I don't think it's the smartest thing. Like, I think you probably want people using your song like that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's the same thing with sports leagues.

[John Feitelberg]

Not like, under. I at least understand what you think you're doing.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

And I'm like, I'm fine with that. That's fine. I won't keep using your music. But starting today. Yeah, but starting today, like, like, grandfathered in to take away my account. Cuz 6 years ago I was doing something that, like, wasn't against. And everyone who's in jail for selling weed is like, yeah, I know.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

For real. Those poor bass.

[John Feitelberg]

I was saying that. I was like, no, but that's the opposite. Pretty dumb. What?

[Jackie]

That's selling weed.

[John Feitelberg]

But it was, it was. Yeah, it's the opposite. It was illegal and now it's legal, right?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, Right.

[John Feitelberg]

That was legal then.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Point, Jackie.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, point Jackie.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But I. So they, you know, they. They say, like, this show's done what a great run they had, but what they're really doing is propping themselves up being like, another one is gone while we're still going strong, you know? And so it's like, polite, but also funny and all that. And I was like, I, I would love a Joe Budden Another One Bites the Dust segment. And we got like a half one. But they did do it. They. They played. So like two episodes ago, they did it for one show, and then the next episode they had another one and someone was like, damn, like two in. In two episodes. And he was like, oh, actually, three. Actually, three. Like, my boy Kev over there at Barstool, they just announced they. They're ending their show. One of the. One of the first Barstool podcasts, and a couple of the guys in the cast were like, oh, I. With that guy. And then they went into the. The show. They were actually, like, canceling. But I. I was like, it's a funny thing to be like, man, the one wish I had when I end my show is that this guy dances on my grave.

[John Feitelberg]

But it is, you know, it's like.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Kind of like a badge of honor, I think, to even be on the radar.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Worth mentioning. So that was probably my favorite part of the announcement, if you will.

[John Feitelberg]

The announcement. I don't think I said this part in the one DM I read. Thanks for introducing me to other.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

Better was in parentheses. And that made it even ruder to me. Like, you could have just said other. Other parenthetical. Better Podcasts.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I almost. I would. That guy's either just a.

[John Feitelberg]

You want to hear some real crazy. What Woman?

[Jackie]

What?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay, so this actually. No, this. This, actually. I think this is what it is. I think if you were right back, like, well, that was up. I think she would be like, no, no, I meant, like, you guys have found so many, like, introduced us to so many things, and, like, I think they meant it in a positive way.

[John Feitelberg]

Sure, sure. But no, I'm not going back to find out, Kevin.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I. I just. I. There was. That's something I actually think is positive about us. It's like, like, yeah. Like, does it suck that all of those shows, like, exploded and then, you know, like, kind of our. Our value of being, like, the people who put these guys on disappeared. Yeah, that. That sucks. But I also love the fact that I'm like. It's also a relatively easy thing to do because a lot of these guys are so funny. But I don't think we were ever, like, wrong where it was like, yo, this guy is, like, funny. And it's like. And then they just, like, fizzled out and didn't do anything.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like, most of the guys that we were like, like, that was a great episode. Let's have that guy back as a guest. Ended up being monsters, you know? So I do think we had a good eye for that sort of stuff as far as, like, who was really gonna be next. And I think the fans. That's why the show. I think that was. The value of the show is, like, you get introduced these things. It sucked that we kind of put ourselves out of business, made ourselves obsolete a little.

[Jackie]

It makes you feel better. I feel like you, anybody who DMS you has never listened to the podcast because then they would know. But you don't actually read your DMs, so there's no point.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's a good point.

[John Feitelberg]

That's true.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, I, I, I DM'd you for a job. How'd you get a job?

[Jackie]

Nick, my brother.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah, Nick.

[John Feitelberg]

Nick should be in charge of all hiring apartments. He hired you too, right? I think, I think those are Nick's only two hires.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Dude.

[John Feitelberg]

Nick should be in charge of hiring.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

All the producers, though. Like, a lot of producers came through here. You two. Noah was here for a little bit. Tommy Lay was here for a little bit. Like anybody who kind of like just needed to get in the door, which is also another thing that was a big, like, you got me into podcasting in general or whatever.

[John Feitelberg]

I am on episode four.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You guys watch it? I haven't watched that yet. Are you a Stranger Things?

[Jackie]

Yeah, I have not watched it.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was like so out on it. I was, I was over the, the hiatus was so long, I really lost my interest. I'm not super weird. I think people are being a little bit weird about the kids getting older. Like it happens. You know what I mean?

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like, it's a little bit strange. And there was a point where I was like, as, why?

[John Feitelberg]

But like, they look, they're in high school. They look like high schoolers. Yeah, they look like, they look like Hollywood high schoolers. But like, they look like Hollywood.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I, I, you know when, when Tom Holland plays Spider Man. Yeah. Is that a problem?

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, they're like, what? They're in their early 20s and they're playing a high schooler. Timber was 33, playing a sophomore.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's. Yeah, there's plenty of examples about that. I think it's a little bit weirder when it's like part of the charm and allure was they were like 10, you know.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. And now they're 16. That, those, that like six to eight years in that era of your life is very different than a 25 year old. Playing a high schooler is different than playing like a middle schooler. You know what I mean? I don't know how old they. So, so, so it's the. Right, it's the same age difference, I think, but it's just a different like stage in life that makes it a little bit weird.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But I think people are taking it to the max.

[John Feitelberg]

No, I, I didn't, I didn't know. I know. Like, that was a joke we made a lot. But like, I don't know, watching the show, I'm like, yeah, I don't know. They're high school.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. So that was kind of. My point is I thought I was out and then I started watching it and I loved it. I thought it was. There's some moments where the acting is a little cheesy and the writing is like a little bit goofy. There's one particular scene where Robin and Will are like laughing with each other.

[John Feitelberg]

And they're like, I was like, what the is this? But that that was a problem. I've noticed in. In season. Like, adding Maya Hawk sucks for everyone.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Else because she's a good actor.

[John Feitelberg]

She's.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, she's a real actor.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Everyone. You guys are child actors who, like, caught a wave.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And you're learning on the fly. And we just dropped a real actor.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. My heart talk. Yeah. Nice with it. And then, like, I think was his name Will Schnapp or Shop. Whatever like that. The one who plays Will. No.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

He's like, oh, oh, yeah, yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

He has to keep acting off her. And it's like, you totally.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Well, I will say, well, I don't want to spoil anything.

[John Feitelberg]

What I was gonna say was when we were texting about it, what happened? What I said, it happens to me happened.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's what happened to me too. But I didn't expect it to happen.

[John Feitelberg]

I never think I'm gonna like it. I'm always over it. And then I start it and I'm like, nah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

As rocks. I think it was. I thought it was great.

[John Feitelberg]

I thought, again, it is just Game of Thrones, right? Well, like, the babies taking beyond the wall and they're trying to get.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's very similar to that and that. And I did say when they zoomed.

[John Feitelberg]

Out on the wall, I was like, oh, this is the wall. Shot from the wall.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And then. So you haven't seen the very end.

[John Feitelberg]

I've not seen the very end. I'm. I'm. I'm. I finished these episode three last night.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I will just say that there is a. The very end moment. Is everything that Game of Thrones wanted to happen in. In one piece, one very big piece of the Game of Thrones puzzle. Stranger Things nailed what Game of Thrones wanted to do, and everyone hated it in Game of Thrones. And I think everyone loved this moment. It was like, oh, yeah, really? I'll leave it at that. Episodes four out right now, and then Christmas and then New Year's.

[Jackie]

Okay.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Which.

[John Feitelberg]

Oh, there's four more each.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think it's four. Four, two, I think, because it's like. I think if you were to. If you were to watch weekly, it would get you to Christmas or close to. Oh, and then I think it goes from Christmas to New Year's, which is only like a week. And I think it's like one or two episodes after that. I think. I'm not sure of that, but I'm pretty sure it's 8.

[Jackie]

Murda show screwed up their release time because it's like everyone already knows the ending, and it was so good. But, like, I, I haven't kept up in, like, the past few weeks.

[John Feitelberg]

Wait, what?

[Jackie]

The Murdoch show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

What about it? Yeah.

[Jackie]

Is it, Is it over?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's over. Yeah. Yeah. I was gonna say, I think that's why.

[Jackie]

Okay.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was like, wait, wait, how did it end? Hard to end a show when you know the ending. Yeah, but that's why I thought that show was so good, because if, like, it was all out there, I knew, like, I, I kind of forgot some of the details, but I knew what was going on, and I still love that.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, I thought that was.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And, and so that was my point.

[John Feitelberg]

There's so much good TV right now.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

We are in a. Do not take it for granted. It is. We are in, like, a golden.

[John Feitelberg]

It's almost like, stressing to keep up with.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I, I, I was texting you. I was like, have you watched All Her Fault? And. And you were like, no, I'm watching the Beast in Me. And I was like, oh, I just finished All Her Fault and I'm doing that. And you're like, oh, I just finished Beast. It's like, everyone's got to keep up with everything.

[John Feitelberg]

The beast in me is really good, bro.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The Beast I had to turn off. I was, I was so high, and I get paranoid when I was high, and I. And that show's so stressful that I was like, can we put on, like, some goofy for a little bit? Like, it was that Matthew Reese Rice, I think, is maybe the most underrated actor in the, in the world today. Especially apparently playing a psychopath. Like, he. When he yells like, oh.

[John Feitelberg]

In the. In episode seven, I think, is how many there are maybe eight.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Whatever it is, there's eight total.

[John Feitelberg]

He. The finale he's on, he's unreal every step away. But episode one there is, like, there. It's like when him and Claire Danes, like, have their first.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

She's a good actor.

[John Feitelberg]

And, like, I don't even know why the camera angles are like, like, up high, coming down on their faces. And for some reason, that made it so much more intense, I thought.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Also at the very end where they're in the jail and they're sitting in front of each other, they just both speak to the camera, and it's like, you're just. And I think it kind of slowly zooms in, and I was like, this is really well done. Claire Danes is very sorry. She. She's as far as I can think of. I'm sure she's done a million things right now. She feels like, like, I Don't want to say one trick pony because that sounds negative, but, like, she always just plays the frazzled, overwhelmed, maybe crazy white girl.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And Homeland. And this, like. And she's.

[John Feitelberg]

This one's from the creator trembles.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And what's that from the creators.

[John Feitelberg]

Homeland.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Oh, is it. Okay, that makes sense. Yeah. She's. She's. I mean, she's always. She's been acting since she was, you know, a kid. But that. That storyline, a lot of. A lot of Durst. Robert Durst, like, elements to that.

[John Feitelberg]

It's so visceral, too. Like, there's a lot of, like, scenes and shots and sounds. We're like, this is just gross. Yeah. Like, when he's just sitting there eating the chicken for a minute. Oh, it's just like, him sucking it down. And it's like. It's just one minute straight of him, like, messy eating a chicken, bro.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The scene where he kills the one person. Kills the one person. Yeah, they, like, show the above and.

[John Feitelberg]

He goes on long, man. They're like. They're like the span noises.

[Jackie]

That.

[John Feitelberg]

That was like, sunny when that was like, Dennis pitching the movie. And he's like. And we show it. We show everything. Like, that's how that show is. We're showing everything.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I thought. Where are you at on All Her Fault?

[John Feitelberg]

I just finished episode two.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I have.

[John Feitelberg]

Have you seen any.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

All Her Fault?

[Jackie]

No.

[John Feitelberg]

The. I don't really understand, like, how much is supposed to be reality versus, like, metaphorical, like, like, to give you. To do. What I'm referring to specifically is the press conference when the kid is missing and how she. As the mother is attacked. Yeah, that would never.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I don't think so.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. So, like, is it supposed to be like, that's how she feels as the mother.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Well, so All Her Fault, I think, is good, but I think there was just some things like that where it's like, this is not like, a perfectly executed show.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, that's what it is. How she's feeling. That's different. But, like. Like, the whole press is, like, screaming, attacking her about where her kid is. And, like, that just wouldn't happen.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I mean, what would have been better?

[John Feitelberg]

But. But don't get me. Like, that's what I'm trying. I'm trying to say, like, if a mother feels like that. I understand. Yeah, I totally get that a mom would feel like that, but just in.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Reality, that a more realistic way to have done that would. Would have been, like, show, like, the Internet sending her messages. Yes, because that probably does happen. Where. If they think that you're the culprit. But in True Crime, I'm sure that happens. I don't think the press would do.

[John Feitelberg]

That in the room. That's, that's a great point. They should have shown it through dm.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And I think that's, that was, it was a mechanism to show that she's just, like, overwhelmed.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Off a rocker. Jake Lacey.

[John Feitelberg]

Yes.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Plays. He's a good psychopath. Yeah. Like, that was. And that was, that was a show where maybe, first of all, I said a hundred times, oh, they're each other. And I don't think anybody was each other, but probably like five or six times I was like, it's that person. It's that person. And then, like, the next scene would prove it's not the person. I was like, it was not them. I was wrong. I was wrong.

[Jackie]

It's her.

[John Feitelberg]

It's her.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was like, okay, I'm gonna stop. I'm gonna stop. I don't know the answer here. And then when the, when it all comes together, the end, when that story plot all comes together, I think it's one of the, like, I, I, I, I said to John, it's almost like when we hear those really amazing stories and then you find out they're just like urban legends that aren't real. It's what, it's like, that level of story. Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

Oh, that's what happened.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That. Can you believe it all comes together? Really?

[John Feitelberg]

Really, really.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Very entertaining, I'll say. Especially you guys watching it. Maybe, like, the, the way it's executed or the realism. I don't know about that, but it's just in terms of, like, oh, yeah, this is crazy. It was, it was really good. Where are you at on Pluribus?

[Jackie]

I, I'm up to date.

[John Feitelberg]

I am not up to date. I've done episode four yet. I really liked episode two. Don't worry one and three as much. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Here's what I will say. And I hate that I'm about to say this, but I think part of it's true, and I definitely think it's true for, like, other viewers, like, like this generation of viewers. I think the Vince Gilligan Slow Burn does not play as well in this era. I think, especially with pluribus. Episode three, I think, was, like, 42 minutes.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Which is fine. But Vince Gilligan will spend, like, if you probably add it all up, there's probably like 12 or 14 minutes of, like, montages and, yeah, nobody talking at all, which is cool. Like, I did 100 times a show on Pluribus. I go, that's a cool shot. Oh, that's a cool. Like, the way. Oh, I get the symbolism there. I get what they're trying to say. But in terms of just, like, in this era where all these shows are available, like I said, we're kind of in a golden age. I, like, we will watch it. But I wonder if it's gonna have a lot of steam with the average casual fan who, if you're not like, oh, that's Vince Gilligan. And I remember this looked like Breaking Bad, and she was in Better Call Saul. And. And if. And it's sci fi. It's a little weird. Like, I was kind of talking through it, and. And I was talking to Rhea, and I was like. She was like, yeah, I don't know. I don't think this is for me. And I was like, you would hate the show. I think. I think it. It's got to work for you. I think that, like, Slow Burn is a little bit tough. I think it's just a little different.

[John Feitelberg]

I agree. But also, like, I think this show is to win Emmys. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So for the audience, this is for.

[John Feitelberg]

Apple Studios to get Emmys.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

And I think that's why they went and got Vince Gilligan. And because guess what? They just won every goddamn Emmy.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right.

[John Feitelberg]

I mean, for Better Call Saul, I imagine they won.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Well, no, I think the whole thing.

[John Feitelberg]

Rhea Seehorn never won.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right. I think some people are saying this.

[John Feitelberg]

Is like her Reven show did and Oden Kirk did.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, I. I'm guessing this is because Apple wants Emmys. I mean, every studio wants awards.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, that.

[John Feitelberg]

I'm thinking this is like, they. We don't really care how popular it is. We want.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's like a studio. They, like, they cleaned up with the studio, and they want to do that again.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. And it is what they wanted with the Scorsese movie Killer Moon. They're like, I don't know at all. That's just my guess. But, like, I think there's a point, too. You do, like, every. Every network. Right.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Because every.

[John Feitelberg]

Every, like, streaming service is just now a network.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

So, like, I think this is their Emmy show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You have your entertaining.

[John Feitelberg]

You got your. The Last Frontier, which is your action. Action show. Like, I think they're all just gonna start doing that. So, like.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yep.

[John Feitelberg]

It probably won't be their most popular show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was just thinking that I. I thought this show is going to be like, a cultural moment. And now I'm like, this is. I Think it's gonna be like a niche, like what you're describing.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. But also, like, like those, I, I don't, we won't be able to know.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Until it's out totally.

[John Feitelberg]

Because, like, because then what with mascots too, it was like, maybe when it comes out, like, everyone will binge it. I think Vince Gilligan's got a better shot than we did.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Perhaps you're on your way.

[John Feitelberg]

But we got some, we got some time, I think. I, I, I, I think it'll still end up being a very, very good show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I'm just thinking that.

[John Feitelberg]

But I, I have lost steam in it as well.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I, what, what you kind of said about episode two, like, it crystallized and it all came together. Three and four. I'm like, we. It was the same show. It was the same episode.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And it's the same theme of, like, her trying to, her going through the mode. Although I will say it's the very end of episode. Maybe I'm being harsh because maybe like the second half of the last episode, she is now on her, like, investigation tip. She's like, really trying to figure it out, like, in a tangible way. She's like, tracking down, oh, this, this label was written on the thing. And I'm gonna go to this factory. And so we're getting there. I don't want to say, but yeah, I think, I think it's what.

[Jackie]

Yeah, yeah. And I think that they, that's what they're.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yes, that's what that thing. That's what they're using to create that.

[Jackie]

If you, if you scan, you could just say it.

[John Feitelberg]

No, no, I really don't care.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Going to say. I, I, I think so.

[John Feitelberg]

She was the finale. That'd be one thing.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But like, episode four, she's, she's figuring out what they drink and eat and stuff. Okay. They all, they just drink this one drink. It looks like Fruity Pebbles. And she's trying to figure out what it is. And so she tracks. She goes to a dairy plant. It's all in milk jugs. So they, she realized there's. She falls into a dumpster at some point, like, doing investigation. And it's just milk cartons everywhere. And so she's like, they're just drinking milk. And then she goes to the dairy plant near her. And it's not milk, it's in milk jugs, but it's this weird liquid. And she's trying to figure out what is that liquid made out of. And in. At the very end of the episode, she tracks that to Another location. And she opens up the door and she's like horrified. And I think it's all the dead people that they were like carrying out. I think they're like mashing them up and like, that's what they're eating or something like that. That or drinking really. That's my guess.

[Jackie]

The barcode, like in real life, it like leads to a link to Soylent or something, which is a reference to.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I called the number that. That's.

[Jackie]

Oh, you did?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The number she calls to talk to the president. You can call. And it's like answering machines. Like, hello, Carol. Like, you know, I love those things.

[John Feitelberg]

I think those are always so cool.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, but so, so it does. It gets going. But I, you know, it was basically like an episode and a half more of like, you don't like this. They don't like you now because you scare them when you go crazy. And it was just like, yeah, yeah, maybe I'm beautiful.

[John Feitelberg]

It also is like, like I always think about Breaking Bad where like, I get mad when people are like, it starts. It's so slow. I'm like, what are you talking about? Like, the opening is.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

A gun chase in episode two. Someone's killed in episode three.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Well, even as I was just doing it myself, I was like, oh, no, wait, they. She did this investigation. There was a big cliffhanger at the end.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, if you watching it, it might feel slow, but if you break down, like, what's happening? Like, a lot of big stuff is happening.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

I haven't seen episode four yet, but up until then, she's learning about the electricity. The. Yeah, I get like. I'm not in love with it, but I do appreciate what's happening.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And I think, you know, if you have faith in Gilligan, I think it'll all kind of come together. But like, there was. I don't remember which episode it was. Did you see the drone come pick up her trash? It was like she, she, she has garbage and they are staying away from her because when she goes crazy, they get like, hurt, you know, and she was like, I need my garbage taken down. They're like, just put it on the front step. But it can't be more than like eight pounds or something like that. And a drone comes to pick it up and it really struggles. And I, I think it was probably some like, heavy handed, more AI symbolism of like, technology doesn't always work exactly how you want it to. It's a little wonky. But it felt like it was five minutes of watching this drone struggle and it's probably like 45 seconds.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But in my head, I was like, I get it. Let's go. And when that happens a couple times an episode, the way it does with Vince Gilligan, with those montages and nobody talking for a while, and even this is like, there's really one character. You know, I mean, like, there's a lot to rely on in. In a little to rely on in a very big way. That. So I think sometimes watching it, I'm a little like. But then when I look at the big picture, I'm like, actually, it's fine. You know, so maybe that's the point is that, you know, you can't judge, like, knee jerk reactions. Like, that is. I don't think it's a good thing. You know, you gotta, like, look at it in totality.

[John Feitelberg]

I think episode three is like 90 montage. Yeah, they're very cool. They're cool.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think that also, that's what I meant about the audience now, like, I think that might be a little dated. Not that it's bad. I think it's actually awesome. But in terms of mass appeal, I think some people be like, what's going. Nothing that happens in the show.

[John Feitelberg]

You know, the montages in this one in particular, I think are really cool because you get people who are out of uniform doing in uniform stuff and vice versa. Like, I thought it was so cool how, like, the first plane was being flown by a waitress. Tgi.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

And like, how, like, you'll see a cop just carrying stuff, like.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

I don't know. I just think visually that ends up looking really cool to be able to have that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Visually, the show's awesome.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Albuquerque, the backdrop, some of, like, the weird movements and the way they're so robotic, like, all of that looks very, very cool. As I'm watching all her faults. The one, one big critique of all her fault that I. I just realized is the police officer. And all her fault is never wrong. He has the most ridiculous hunches and connects the most ridiculous dots and it works out. And I'm like, that is the fakest police work I've ever seen. But it's Michael Pena. And as I'm watching it, the young lady I'm watching with goes. She goes. How'd she word it? She was like, I just can't believe that Michael Pena is not like a Hollywood leading man. And I was like, wait, what? She was like, basically putting him on the, like, a George Clooney level. She was like, he's just like, so handsome. And like, I think he should be like the star of these shows. And I was like, Michael Pena, that guy.

[John Feitelberg]

Like the dude from Crash.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And like, I'm running through his other things and it's like. And she was like, yeah, he's just like, leading man. I was like, yeah, of course. Like McConaughey, Pitt and Michael. Yeah. Like, I was like, I'm questioning everything right now.

[John Feitelberg]

It's funny too, because, like, I'm thinking even like, his bigger roles, at least the roles I know him from. Like, he's certainly not playing a leading man. He's playing like kind of a weak guy. Like Shooter.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

Ant Man.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

He's never like the guy. And I was like, is this.

[John Feitelberg]

Oh, Michael Payne is here?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It was like.

[John Feitelberg]

Like it was Jason Statham or something.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like the Equalizers in the room or some shit. I was like, this.

[John Feitelberg]

This is a great.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And then by the end of it, it was like, I just think he's like, a really nice guy who, like, deserves a great career. I was like, well, that's different.

[John Feitelberg]

Which I agree with totally. Yes, totally.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But, you know, I'm looking in the mirror myself. Like, I look like a business.

[John Feitelberg]

What do I deserve?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Okay, so I thought both of you guys might be interested in this. So these guys, Raiders of the Lost podcast, I just ended up following them recently and they kind of just do like film and TV talk. And two back to back videos here that I think are interesting. The first one is what happened to funny characters. Movies coming out theatrically have been straying away from character comedy.

[Jackie]

Dodgeball. Ben Stiller's character.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That person doesn't exist in real life, but it breeds great comedy.

[Jackie]

It's a cartoon character.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

He's pumping up his.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

His jock and he's got. That's ridiculous.

[Jackie]

Reading the dictionary.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I like to break a mental sweat too. We don't get that. So I think that's a good point. Is that like, there's like silliness.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That everything is mostly rooted in. Attempted to be rooted in reality. You know what I mean? Where it's like. And then this kind of goes hand in hand. This is the next one. Comedy is just quips now. The last 10 years has just been quips and jokes that the actors say it's not performance based. Ace Ventura, when he's doing the football pit with the skirt on and he's got his crazy hair and he's. Let's see that again. It is a replay.

[Jackie]

That's a sketch.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

They would write a sketch into the script. Then the actor would do basically a skit in the movie, that football bit. It's like. I think that that's. Whether you believe it or not. I think those are two cool, like, interesting things to discuss. Where. And they. They kind of go hand in hand. Is like the. The head of Globo Gym, like, talking like that and being. So. It's stupid.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And I think now it. Whether it's that cringe thing we talked about or whatever, like, people I think would. No one would ever like, say or act like that's like. Yeah, we know.

[John Feitelberg]

It's just funny.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like, yeah. V Ace Ventura, like, talking in rewind and like, being all goofy is funny. It's not realistic. And the thought of that comedy is almost like 100%. It seems reliant upon clever jokes, writing which I think might come from the Internet. Funny tweets, stand up comedy where it's like a. Oh, like a punchline, you know, instead of like, it's funny that, like, he's a big guy in a little dress or something like that, you know? And I. I almost think that. That I could see people viewing that as like, lesser than. Like, the goofy kind of comedy is like low hanging fruit or not in, like, smart, you know. And I think we maybe went too far the other direction. Like some silliness like that. I think Naked Gun coming back and. And those things are like a good sign that, like, yeah, you're supposed to just be laughing. But I think those are two. I wanted to hear what you guys thought being involved in all this. I believe that later in that clip, they talk about how it started with Judd Aptow and how he kind of started that whole. Where it's like, it's more about the story and then there's jokes in between that make it funny, which. And those were all. Those are all. But then just. But not everyone's. Jed. Not out of town. Yeah. So then you continue to do that. But then there's also people like Tim Robinson that have brought that back. Yeah, yeah. But he's got one fastball. He throws it a. You know. But you know what? That joke is coming.

[Jackie]

All that.

[John Feitelberg]

All of his, like, reactions and stuff like that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

He was the first one that came to mind for me. I. I'm a little bit like. I, like, I. I think sometimes he's very funny. But then there are times kind of what they're discussing is like, yeah, he's stuffing hot dogs in his pockets, like, or whatever. You know, it's like, it's funny. But then like the next sketch and the next episode is the same thing. And like I think there might be a little bit of a shelf life on that. Maybe that's why it used to be like, like a movie, a standalone thing.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Instead of a series. So sometimes I like it, sometimes I, I prefer like a Vince Vaughn. Just quippy, you know, fast delivery, good writing. I think the answer is that you can do both. Like there's just two different types of comedy, but it seems like we're only doing one now.

[John Feitelberg]

I, I, I completely agree. I also think that's part of, that's the Internet.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yes.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, like the, like there's really no new girl at least. Like there's no nothing that's that level right now. Yeah, like, like 20 something year olds living in the city trying to find themselves. And I think that's do not due to exclusively but partly due to like that show is just happening on the Internet.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

You're following the influencer who's doing this show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right.

[John Feitelberg]

And I kind of think the characters are also on the Internet right now. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

There's plenty of sketches. You guys are doing them like, like you can find that it's just not in movies. Movies.

[John Feitelberg]

But even, and I don't even mean strictly speaking for sketches. I mean like some people on the Internet are just fully a character. It's very funny, goofy like Jerry, like Jersey Jerry's pretty character based comedy. And like I think a lot of people are doing that on the Internet. So people like we're not going to put that in movies and TV because there's somewhere to find it already.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right. I also think when it's done on the Internet right now it that filmmakers like. But I think the people in Hollywood like then think of that as lesser, you know, for sure. Yeah. And that's not fair.

[John Feitelberg]

They think of it as lesser because they can't make money off it because someone else is making money.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

I think of like the bear. I would say the bear is the opposite end of the spectrum where it's considered like a comedy but it's just so crazy.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think that's crazy.

[Jackie]

Yeah, but it's just like it is quips. It is like fun.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. That's whatever. It's regular. It's chefs in a kitchen.

[Jackie]

The complete opposite of like slapstick humor.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I mean like when you comedy is such a good example of it. It's like, like somebody was like let's make a whole movie series about a pet detective. It's in the goddamn title. And he's chasing down the Miami Dolphins mascot. That's like, that's a risk. Yeah. Because it could have absolutely crashed and burned, you know, and there's a lot of movies like that, like, even Dumb and Dumber, like, a lot of the Jim Carrey movies are going to be like that. I think I remember the Pest, John Leguizamo. Remember that? Like, he's in that giant car. And it's just like, stuff that I could see now, especially with the proliferation of the Internet critics, and everyone's got a podcast that if you do. If you take a risk like that and it bombs, you're gonna get like, flames, you know? Whereas if you're just a. I just do this character on the Internet, I just made a Instagram reel. Sometimes you like it, sometimes you're not. Not a big deal. But if you make a movie about that and it misses, I could see that being like a career killer or you don't get another shot or something like that. So. But, you know, I can't confidently say that I would like to watch an Ace Ventura movie right now. I loved it back then and I. I will always love that movie. But if you did a new version, I think I'd be like, ah, this is dumb. Which is. That's why they don't do them.

[John Feitelberg]

I think a lot of people are always like, they don't do this anymore for a reason.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You don't like them anymore. And maybe that is something that's better. Like, let's just. You get that on the Internet and then high budget, you know, very talented people are not going to be doing that stuff. But I don't know, then you. I mean, I look at a Jim Carrey and it's like that guy became an icon doing dumb shit, doing silly humor, you know, so you can't like, totally shy away from it. But I also get why you would. In this era of everything, it's got to be cool and whatever, you know.

[John Feitelberg]

I also learned the other day that right now, or a few days ago when I read this, Hollywood box Office was up 2% on the year with Zootopia 2, Fire, Nash, Marty supreme, and one more avatar, Avatar 3. So it's Avatar 3, Zootopia, Marty supreme, and I think there's one other big one still to come out. So based on my own stupidity, I'm guessing that, like, at the end of the year, because those are three monster.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Movies up a decent amount.

[John Feitelberg]

I'm suggesting at the end of the year, Hollywood box office is up 5%. Yeah, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's but some. But somewhere between two and five. That's a good year.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. You're up.

[John Feitelberg]

I mean everyone who's always talked if.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It'S up from last year and last year was terribly low. Like getting up 5% might be like we're still a fraction of where we at in 2010, something like that.

[John Feitelberg]

But like that 2010 is a different world. There's nothing to compare. All you can compare to is last year. Are we getting better? You're up 5%. Yeah, like and I've said this before but reading that book the Oscar Wars. Hollywood has been going out of business for every year since it's been invented. Every year people are like yeah, the talkies are ruining things. This is ruining things. People always want entertainment.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I do, I do think though that when you are talking about a time period that like there is kind of a revolution of technology and information and all that. Like I would and I'm sure technology is always evolving so this always applies. I'm sure. But when you hit those, those tipping points where stuff really goes like exponentially faster. Like I would imagine movies from like the 70s to the 90s it was like the same industry. I would.

[John Feitelberg]

I don't think so.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You don't think so. Like I know 70s and 80s things like change.

[John Feitelberg]

70S was a major change. And what like the just like who was making movies like they. It changed from basically being the MGMs and like the studios to the artists started me so it was like corporate world was making movies from like the 30s to the 70s. The 70s is when it switched to artist started making making movies like Cary Grant like went out of his way to get Dennis Hopper into the academy and Martin Sheen and a bunch of other people. Like people who made Easy Rider, Jaws so Spielberg, Nashville and there were two other movies Cuckoo's Nest and some one other. And it was like those five movies were like used as the new Hollywood is coming. So like the Jack Nicholson's like the Cary Grants is who they were kind of getting out where like it was your stereotypical leading man Michael Pena type. And then like in the 70s it flipped like artists and that's when like kind of hippie movies. 70s like it was full artists.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Sure, sure.

[John Feitelberg]

Artists everywhere. That's when it became more like art rather than corporate stuff.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So I guess there's always according to what I'm evolving and change. I I think though like like those are valid changes. But I think it's like then far it's still very different than like we are now competing with an entire new technology and medium that takes up people. Like, back in the 70s, 80s, and 90s, it was still like, television, movies, and, like, books. Yeah, relatively. You know, I mean, maybe video games start to creep in there, but for the most part, it stayed that same way for, like, I think, decades. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't know.

[John Feitelberg]

I think every 10 years, you're gonna have new stuff. Yeah. Like, even the 70s, like, everyone didn't have a TV in their house.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right, Right. Like, that was competing with regular, like, nightly tv.

[John Feitelberg]

A TV in every home. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, there. There's always something you're fighting against. But what was I just gonna say? Oh, like before 70s, I kept saying in corporate, it was more like cops and robbers, cowboys and Indians, and the good guy won every time. Like, the. The good guy had to win because that meant your box office went up 25. If you're the good guy lost, you're done. It was done. So, like, it was only good guy versus bad guy movies. Which good guy won?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Probably similar to what we're just talking about, like, why there are no silly comedy. Like, it's like, whatever. What pays the bills in that era is what people are gonna do. Yeah. I mean, I look at, like, I always laughed at the. This is television, not movies, but the Batman TV series. That's like, boom, pow. And, like, I mean, it's like, the worst. But I think that was, like, the biggest deal. It was amazing. Can't miss it. You watch it now, and it's like, that's just the old flabby dude in tights delivering stupid, terrible lines. And. But people were like, that's Batman. So I wonder if we'll look back on. I don't know how much better technology and movies can get. I mean, I guess maybe eventually you're doing, like, 3D hologram projections. But will. Will we look back and be like, people thought Avatar was a big deal. Like, with the facts. Like, that was. That's garbage. I just. Part of me feels like we got to top out somewhere. I don't know.

[Jackie]

Did you see, like. I don't exactly know, but there's, like, some Facebook. People are coming together on Facebook and, like. Cause playing an ant colony. And then, like, everyone's like, this is the problem.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

This is. This is what's going on on the Internet. There are movie executives going, we got a cosplay as the goddamn pretending to be an ant colony.

[Jackie]

People are like, finding just, like, weird niche ways to entertain themselves. Yeah. And everyone's, like, pretending, like, individually to be ants.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Is there, like, a queen?

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

What are you talking about?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I actually like this kind of stuff. I would never watch it myself, but I love that the Internet.

[Jackie]

What.

[John Feitelberg]

Which I type in.

[Jackie]

Type in Facebook. Ant colony cosplaying. And I'm not. This was something that I heard in passing, and I was just like, I don't. I don't even want to look into this group world. Be Anson Ant Colony. Yep.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

A group.

[Jackie]

1.7 million.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

7 million members. Wow. See, I think I would never do this. I think they're all crazy and probably should be thrown in jail. I think this is cool that, like, they are there. These people are obviously weird. And they found they can find this, like, for the. For the. The rest of human history. Those people sat alone in a basement going, man, I wish we could pretend to be ants. But, like, no one. I'm so weird. No one wants to do that. And then you find out there's 1.7 million people that want to do it.

[Jackie]

Like, there's more weirdos out there than normal. Like, when I think of.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, what.

[John Feitelberg]

What is happening in this group? What do you mean? They're pretending to be ants.

[Jackie]

I seriously. Join it.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, join it. Join it. Like, are they. Are they. Are they dressing up? Are they acting like them? Are they. If I should go a million different.

[Jackie]

Ways, I think that they're just kind of like, hey, Queen, can I also say something real quick? One time, I had lice when I was younger.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Oh, gross.

[John Feitelberg]

Sorry.

[Jackie]

Sorry. But when I was younger, and they found the queen lice in my hair, and.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And you had, like, the lice.

[Jackie]

The lice. And. And, like, I don't. I don't mean. I was kind of grossed out at first, but then the more I thought about it, the more I was like. But she chose me. Oh, my.

[John Feitelberg]

I knew she was gonna say that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Oh, my God, I'm so special. Am I famous? The queen. The.

[Jackie]

The lice woman said that she's never seen it before.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Can you scroll down? And she chose him.

[Jackie]

I just wanted to throw that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The concept is simple.

[John Feitelberg]

I've never seen a girl disgusting as this.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I mean, John, this. This is funny because it makes you sound stupid. It's like, the concept is simple. Members of the ant group post photos and videos about being ants. What don't you get, dude? They live to serve their fictional queen and find her food, such as crumbles, candy, and ice cream. Bro, this sounds great. A bunch of people bringing me ice cream. I'll be your queen members, right?

[John Feitelberg]

I got an address for you guys.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

They members write comments like lift, munch and link as they pretend to be ants. In one post, a group member shared a photo of pink ice cream with ants crawling on top of it. The poster asked other members to munch with them. So this is just literally through text. Yeah, this is like, this is like old, old computer games where you just had to like, type in commands and it. And it would tell you like one of the very first video games is like, you type in like, walk up the mountain.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And then. And it says like, when you walked up the mountain, you encountered a dragon. And then you type like, fight the dragon. And it'll be like you died.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And then next time you have to go run away from the dragon. But it's just text on a screen. This is just people saying, like, eat this. And then you write back, like, I am eating it.

[Jackie]

Is this like a kinky thing?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was gonna say somebody's jerking off to this. There's 1.7 million people jerking off to ant pictures and everything goes back to a kink. Like everything is being done for people to get their rocks off one way or the other.

[Jackie]

Yeah. If I was to me, I'd be like, okay, at least we're not like doing ant stuff, you know?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Like, yeah, my husband drinks my piss, but I'm not pretending to be an on the Internet.

[Jackie]

Lift to the Queen.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

70 role playing people on. So what's weirder? Being one of the 70 who play it or the 1.6 million 999,000 watch.

[John Feitelberg]

30 for loving the game.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I would love to. I. You know that the vast majority of people are like, I mean, I'm not crazy. I don't do it, but I follow it. That is, that's the Internet in a nutshell. Like, don't. Like, sometimes I'll. I'll even say about my own stuff, like, I don't know, there's. There's nobody out there that likes that. Or like, there's not an audience for that. Yes, there is. Yes, there is. It might be a little bit harder to find them, but.

[John Feitelberg]

But once you do, millions of people.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. And now there's probably somebody eating off or munching off of this. I mean, if you got rich off this, like, how do you even make. I think, I think I would, like, lose. Yeah. I don't know if there's any money to be made off this. This seems like people are just getting scratching a weird itch. But if there's someone who's like, caking it off of Ant cosplaying on the Internet. I give up, man.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Part of me is like, can't knock the hustle and God bless you. And then there's part of me. It's like, why can't I guess it is better though. Like. Yeah, I'm gonna talk about, like, sports and comedy like every other in the world. How many people doing ant cosplay? Apparently 70. That's it. That's. You want to specialize? There you go, man.

Terms and conditions apply. All right, so we already did a little bit of talk about the show ending, but it sounds like each episode we're gonna wrap up with doing a little reminiscing and nostalgia, and we're gonna try to do it chronologically for all the different eras and iterations of the show. And so the first one was obviously the very. The inception of it all. And so that was 2012, was when KFC radio, meaning, like, I just did podcasting, because it was not the show that you, you know, come to know it as right away. The first thing off the bat was. So at that point, I had been blogging since 2009, but really only full time, probably since, like, 2011. Like, it was pretty quickly once I went Full time. I was thinking like what's next? Which is I think kind of become a hallmark of. At least what I try to do is like figure out the next trend, the next medium, the next type of content. And Brendan was the one who was like podcasting is the next like thing for you to do. And I remember we, we, we. We filmed like a, we recorded a demo or just like a first attempt. And at that point I think I was, I was thinking of Bill Burr. He had the Monday morning podcast. Yeah. And it was just a solo show where he would rip.

[John Feitelberg]

Dave already done their episode or was that, was that pre or post?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I would imagine post. I don't think.

[John Feitelberg]

I think, I think Burr went to Dave's apartment in Milton once and they recorded one.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

To do Bill show.

[John Feitelberg]

To do Bill show. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Interesting. I. So I don't think I knew that happened. So I'm not sure when that happened.

[John Feitelberg]

I, I'm like 100 sure it did. Did I just forget what it was? I, I always thought of KFC radio as his first introduction to podcasting, but now that I'm talking out loud, I'm.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Sure I never even. I didn't know that happened, let alone like did you listen to. It was okay.

[Jackie]

Like Dave was a one time guest.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, Yeah. I think I'm like again, I'm, I'm 100 positive. I'm sure he. Because he went to Dave lived in Milton like right by the office. And I remember being like, like disappointed that they were recording at Dave's house because I wouldn't get to meet Bill Burr.

[Jackie]

Got it. Oh, interesting.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The Bill. There's a Bill Burt podcast. Let's see. Okay. Thirteen years ago. Yeah. So this is. Oh, nope. We got him beat by a month Monday.

[John Feitelberg]

Monday morning though. This one was going on.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Definitely didn't. July 16, 2012. I think we have them beat to the day a month. I think it was June 16th.

[John Feitelberg]

Really.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's like mid, middle June of 2012 was when we started. And so El Perez on the Monday morning podcast was a month after that. I didn't.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. Googling Dave Portnoy probably wouldn't like he was al president.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah. Dave Porter. Yeah. Yeah. Dave in 2018. I don't know what. What the. The commotion was, but he said lots of people freaking out that Bill Burr mentioned us. Little known fact. He also interviewed me in my kitchen five years ago.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So that's interesting. So. So Bren was trying to get me into podcasting. He said let's just do an episode. See what happens? So I'm like, all right, here we go. Hour long podcast go. And I got like eight minutes in.

[John Feitelberg]

Really.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And I was like, I'm out of gas.

[John Feitelberg]

How long do you think you go now?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

A thousand hours. I don't know if it would be the best, but I could weave in.

[John Feitelberg]

And out and go a full week. Yeah, like, no problem.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think I could like break the Guinness record. Yeah, the problem would be like the sleeping, but like, you know what I mean? Like as far as the talking, I could just go fore that.

[John Feitelberg]

I think we have a very unique skill in because of the podcasting we did. Like people, people nowadays like to say like, podcasting's over, which I, I don't.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Agree with at all. At all.

[John Feitelberg]

I, I think podcasting, like this podcast has become shows.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yes.

[John Feitelberg]

And every, every podcast is a show now, but like the, the three hour.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Rogue rambling kind of like that, that.

[John Feitelberg]

Probably is a little over.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's over for the reg. The normies, you know, I mean like if you have a show or you're like supremely talented, like you'd have to be a one of one talker for someone to listen to you for three hours now or you're grandfathered in. I've listened to this guy for three hours for 10 years.

[John Feitelberg]

Right.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

If you're just a regular dude, like, you know, like, like people say there needs to be podcasting equipment used to be more expensive to like phase these people out. Those people. Yeah, you can't do that. And, and also it's become such a YouTube video thing.

[John Feitelberg]

That's what I mean. Like, yeah, everything's just a show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And you can't like, like YouTube does not reward. Unless people watch your full three hours, which they're not gonna, you're not gonna get rewarded because of retention and watch time and all that. So you got to play by their rules, which just kills that entire medium, that entire style. But I remember being like, can't do that. Like, I'm not even. Not even. I remember being like, okay, what are we at? Like, how much was that? And he was like 11 minutes.

[Jackie]

Okay, what'd you talk about? Do you know?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I don't remember that. I don't remember that. I do remember. The one thing I can, can remember for sure was this was probably after we got the ball rolling a little bit, but we cut a demo for Sirius XM. They were, I think, starting a sports channel, maybe Rush 93 or what we eventually ended up on. But at that point they did not have a sports show. We didn't have anything. And so I made a demo for them. And it was right after. It was the first time that Jerry Jones said glory Hole. Oh, yeah. And instead of Glory Days or, you know, we think of it as the Dick through the Wall. And I. I thought it was great because I was like, this is exactly what they're looking for. This is sports. And we ended up talking about the Cowboys and Jerry Jones and football, but it's a little bit irreverent and comedy. I was like, this is it. And if it was that week that, like, thing happened. So I was like, this is a sign. Like, they're gonna love this. And I just never heard from him again. That was the only thing I can really remember what our first, like, episodes were. I'd love to see if. You know, it'd be probably hard to find. It's hard enough to find the old episodes, let alone old cutting room floor. Like, this didn't make the cut. But I remember at that point being like, I need something to bounce off of. And I wanted to do calls, but I was like, we don't have a radio station. We don't have a phone number and all that. And that's when he. He did some research and found the Google voice number, which let you leave voicemails. And that was like. Like, Then I was like, let's go. I feel like anytime I found. I mean, if you've been listening, I've said this a million times over the years, so. But anytime I find, like, the technology that fixes the problem, I just go, yeah. That's like. The roadblocks to me are like, how can I physically accomplish this? It's like the green screen for the videos. Once I knew I could do that, we go, you know, and like, James.

[John Feitelberg]

Cameron figure out the technology.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But so he. He, you know, set all that up. We tested it out. It worked. I was like, oh, shit. It was just like having callers, except it's not live, but, like, it's the same thing as a host and callers. And I remember posting it, saying I hadn't done an episode yet, but I said, the voicemail line is open and call up and leave your messages. And that did get Dave's attention that Dave did know about, because I remember him emailing me and be like, this is brilliant. It's probably the last time I ever got, like, any. Any shout out from him. He was like, this is a, like, great idea. This is really smart. Like, let me know what comes of it. And then, for better or worse, Better in terms of everything we did. Worse, probably in terms of if Dave liked it or not. We put out the voicemail line. I gave no direction. I didn't give a topic. I didn't say a style. I just said, call up. And I don't. I. I was thinking about this very, like. I think it's very interesting. Everybody did, like, hypotheticals. Everybody did. Would you Rathers. There was not. I don't. I can't remember. Or maybe that's those ones I picked out, and it's not like they conspired or. I said, give me. Would you rather hypotheticals. It was like every, like, drunk Boston guy between, like, 18 and 24 picked up the phone and left messages that were the very same style. You know, it wasn't like, oh, there was one like this, but one was like sports talk. And one was a deep question. It was just all like, silly like that. That. And I didn't even think of it in the moment where I was like, if that's good or bad? I was like, it just is. That's. That's what the first episode's gonna be. And the very first episode had a very, like, unique and I think, like, timeless hypothetical that was. Would you rather walk around for the rest of your life with one rollerblade on your left foot so you had to, like, scoot everywhere you went? Can't take it off, gotta sleep with it, got a shower with it, gotta go to work with it, go to your grandma's funeral with it? Or you have a midget walking in front of you that has a bad attitude and he walks a little bit slower than you want to walk, so you're just always bumping into him, and he's always giving you gum. Do you rather walk around for the rest of your life with one rollerblade.

[John Feitelberg]

On your left foot and just a.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Normal shoe on your right foot, roller blade on your left shoe, or have a midget for the rest of your life walking in front of you just.

[John Feitelberg]

Slightly slower than you want to go?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

He's also got a bad attitude.

[John Feitelberg]

So anytime you talk to him and he just felt pissed off, he's always just walking just slightly slower than you.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Want to, always directly in front of you. And did some guy come up with that, like, yeah, well, yeah. I don't know if that's something him and his friends debated or if just came to his mind. But I think in a world where the hypothetical conversations kind of became mainstream and. And got beaten to death and answer, the Internet ran its course, and a Lot of people have used that as, like, podcast material, so you've heard a lot of the same ones. You know, like, would you. Your mom with your dad's dick and would you. A duck sized horse or a horse sized duck. A lot of those. This is, like, wholly unique. Never became a big thing, but it's like that's. Those are the type of things I was like, let's do more of those. Yeah, this is creative and interesting, but yeah, the. The butterfly effect on that one where I don't know how many voicemails I did probably.

[John Feitelberg]

I don't even know what this is we're watching right now.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's the voicemail, if you want to hear.

[John Feitelberg]

No, but, like, who made the clip?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I don't know. This is posted from our account.

[John Feitelberg]

I don't even know when we made. When would you say we started making?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Can we see the date on. Is there a mark on this? Like, is it a tweet? Well, yeah, this was nine years ago, so, yeah, it's got to be Brent then.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, like that. We weren't making clips. Nine years.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, no, no. This is from 2021 and we said nine years ago, so this is. Got it.

[Jackie]

Okay.

[John Feitelberg]

Okay.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, Yeah, I do. There.

[John Feitelberg]

There is lips become a thing. Like three years, five years ago. Covid. Covid clips.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You. So trying to find old clips of you guys where, like, it was like a made clip. It's like in that studio. So that's not even in the old studio.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, no, the old office. We did not. We weren't making. I mean, maybe we were, but it wasn't a clip show.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It was so. It. So audio at that point.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Clips made no sense.

[John Feitelberg]

Right.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You know, maybe like a sizzle reel of audio or something. But like there. Or a picture. It was usually picture.

[John Feitelberg]

So Covid was when podcasts became clips.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

A little bit before that, I think. A little before.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I. I remember the first iteration of clips being like a little highlight reel with no context of the show. So it would just be like, Yeah, a clip of you being like. And then I ate the chocolate. And then cut to me being like. And it was just bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. And I like those.

[John Feitelberg]

I like those too.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I thought that was a good. And I've seen. I think, I think Plan Bree's been doing that a little bit. Something Brianna did or. Oh, no, Nikki and Ella. Nikki and Annika do that. Where it's just like, I, I. Because I, I think I'm about to watch, like a full conversation and then it Just jumps around.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, I always like those. They don't get me to listen to a full podcast, but I do like them as a clip.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah, well, and that, that. The thing about clips is also that era was the point was advertising. It was like, get people to go watch. So that. I think that's why we did those because, like, you don't know the context and you want more of that conversation. Now it's like your podcast. It used to be you do a podcast and you get clips to promote it. Now it's like you do a podcast to create the clips. I mean, I remember thinking that years ago and thinking like, we should almost. The podcast is almost like the jam session where we're just like.

[John Feitelberg]

I always remember you saying, I think it was. You say it's from Brendan. But like, treat this as your production meeting and then the final product will.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Be like, like, that. That part was good. That part was good. That part was good. But that kills the. The end product. If your end product is clips, I think you're the. The actual podcast suffers a lot, you know, but, you know. Yeah, I saw the writing on the wall because I was just like, you know, I would tell you there's like five or six podcasts that I love, and it's like, I only listen to one. You don't actually listen to them, but I know them through clips and I know.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So it's like, if that is the product that people are consuming, let's just pivot to. That's what we're. Our goal is. But. But it also. Yeah, it's like, let's have a three hour conversation for the hopes of like a couple clips is just like a shitty way to do it. Yeah, probably the smarter, more efficient way. But it's like, I want to just have a conversation.

[John Feitelberg]

If it ended up making conversations that you knew weren't clips you could check out.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right. We were like, well, why are we even doing a clip of this? Yeah, we're just biting our time before the next thing hits and we get excited and we. You know what I mean?

[John Feitelberg]

Not that I ever did it, but like, I certainly felt it happen. Like, it was never a conscious choice, but you'd be like 10 minutes into a topic and you'd be like, we're not talking about, like, this is.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Let's pull the ripcord and just switch. Yeah, but so anyway, to back to that, like, butterfly effect is these hypotheticals became like, very popular and everybody has done them since the beginning of time. Like, it was just more like at a bar, you would do it. Not on, you know, a recorded space.

[John Feitelberg]

But I also would. I take umbrage with that. How podcasts were always. I meant to say this the other day when we were talking about it, how podcasts were always like. Like just friends sitting on a couch. It is, but it's also really not because I sit with my friends on the couch all the time.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Silence.

[John Feitelberg]

We don't talk like this.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Like, you might have, like, a conversation about a thing and then it stops.

[John Feitelberg]

But, like, particularly with like. Like the intimate conversations we'd have, like, never that. Like, that's. I. I feel like people always said about, like, ah, just pal sitting on a couch.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And it is.

[John Feitelberg]

But it's also like your pal sitting on a couch who are agreeing. We're gonna talk a lot. A lot more stuff than we would talk about if we were sitting here and there weren't cameras.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think this version is guys sitting on the couch. Because it was. A lot of. It was just like, who's better, LeBron or MJ? You know, and it's like, those are the conversations you have when you're around and. And you get all passionate and excited. No way Wolverine would beat a Batman or whatever.

[Jackie]

The.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Then podcasting became. I think it went from your friends to almost. We went through an era where it's like everyone's, like, crying on their podcast and, like, telling their deepest, darkest secrets. Now we've settled back into, like, you'll get some introspective and deep, but we're just. I hope.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But this version really was that. Because that's. I mean, it was. I have to imagine at that point our demo was pretty narrow. I bet you it was like 18 to 24 Boston guys.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And whether they all. You know, I. I just. It's very, like, serendipitous that they all kind of did this same thing.

[Jackie]

What podcast did you know before starting hurting? Like, did you look. Did you.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Probably just that I listened to, like, none. I was not listening to podcasts. I mean, I probably would have known of Bill Simmons and Joe Rogan. It's probably about it.

[John Feitelberg]

We probably knew a bird, too.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yes.

[John Feitelberg]

Just because I didn't realize how out it was.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

I definitely knew of the Monday morning podcast. I don't know if it was before or after, definitely. But, like, I certainly was more aware of the Monday morning podcast than I was of Joe Rogan.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I would agree with that. And. But I. I would have said. Said podcasting is Bill Simmons at that point.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Again, I didn't listen to it, but it was like, that was coming from our sports world. I think that's what most people would know. And Silly.

[Jackie]

Could you.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But. But my brother was a great resource for all this. Like, he did. I think he did know all that. Like, he would have. He would have known Rogan. He would have. I think nerdists and Chris Hardwick was, like, a thing then. He knew all that. He always knows what, like, nerd is coming next. And that's. That's when he. So that's why he was pushing me into the whole medium. And then he was. He mentioned Big J and Tom Segura and was like, I think this. This comedy thing is next. So he was always very good at kind of seeing the trends.

[John Feitelberg]

I remember the first time Segura coming in, and it was like, Brendan had kind of sold it as that to us, where I definitely knew who Tom Segura was, but he was like. He's like, we got a big guest coming in.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

Walked off the elevator and, like, black hoodie, black sweatshirt, black sweatpants, and a black skull.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

He looked like a burglar. Yes. Yeah, I know. I remember.

[John Feitelberg]

And, like, the first thing he said, he's like, you know, Garth Brooks is a murderer. I was like, what is he talking about?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I was gonna say that was the. I think, like, the beginning of that. He had, like, just done that bit, which still to this day, is raging.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Like, there's. There's another. There's two other guys who I think have, like, a fake podcast. I see their clips all the time where they're just talking about Garth Brooks as if he's a murderer. Like, straight up, like, a true crimes again, that's when Brother Brooks murdered her. It's like, this is just a dumb, toxic.

[John Feitelberg]

A joker's like, yeah, he travels a lot. I was like, yeah, he's. Is he killing people? It's a huge part of being a serial killer. I also.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I remember the first time we interviewed Bert. I did not know who bur I knew again, like, I. Those are names you knew. You saw them, like, on a Comedy Central commercial or something like that. So, like, I knew who he was, but I was not familiar with him. And he was telling some story, I think, about drinking on a plane. And I said, like, do you drink a lot? And he was like, like, buddy, yeah. And now, in hindsight, I'm like, that's the most unprofessional question in the world. That would be like, if I had LeBron on. And I said, that's the first thing. So you play hoops?

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I wish I wanted to wear my 11 hoodie. That's long gone. That was one of our quickest and best cease and desists. There's probably, like a hundred people out there who have those. Those are awesome hoodies. But look how young burnt looks. He looks like a garden gnome. That looks like a d. Age. Like an AI if somebody. But I remember.

[John Feitelberg]

I remember that conversation so vividly. I remember that hat almost like, in the same thing as what Brandon was talking about. Like, I remember having that conversation with Bert and being like, this is Elaine. We can see. That was good. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. I don't know if it was this interview, but it was in the old studio, so maybe it had to be one of his first two or three.

[John Feitelberg]

I was also gonna say, why is my shirt inside? Yeah, I was wearing insurance inside out.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think you did have a face like that.

[John Feitelberg]

I definitely did. Yeah. I still like it. I still like it. I know. I think it's cooler, the having the outside of this. I think it just looks like having a little texture, I think.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I think we've made shirts like that because of that.

[John Feitelberg]

Oh, yeah, for sure.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. We did, right? Yeah, yeah. Would you do. That's the other thing. The amount of merch. We made a lot of cool merch. Oh, we made, like, real clothes for a while. That was like. I remember, like, the quilted sweatshirt, of course. But like, I went. I was looking at that guy. Cali has a pinned video on his thing of an edit where he's just wearing all of the shirts throughout the years. And I was like, oh, that was dope. Oh, that was cool. Oh, that was like, we were pushing the envelope. Oh, that was like, fashion. We did a lot of, man. I think when we linked up with Rich Franklin, we. We made some really cool stuff.

[John Feitelberg]

It's all, like, looking at this caption, like, the. The inspiration from. For Van Wilder. That is like 100th on the list of impressive things about Burke. I know.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But at that time, it was like. And for our age and our. How much we loved that movie, I was like, this is the most important.

[John Feitelberg]

Person, hands down, the best way to promote that podcast at that time.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah.

[John Feitelberg]

But it's just so crazy to think that, like, at one point, Bert Kreischer was just a magazine article in Rolling Stone that they wrote a movie about.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah. Is that. That was 2018.

[John Feitelberg]

It says, I'm not going back to college to be your friend. I'm going so I can get Uber one for students. It saves you on Uber and Uber eats. I'm there for $0 delivery fee on cheeseburgers, up to 10% off smoothies, and 6% Uber credits back on rides. Just to be clear, I'm there for savings, not whatever you think college is for.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Get Uber one for students. A membership to save on Uber and Uber eats. With deals this good, everyone wants to be a student. Join for just 4.99amonth. Savings may vary eligibility and member terms apply. That says 2018. I would have thought that. That's earlier. That seemed late to me. 18. So it seems like we were talking clips earlier. The first clip that you ever posted to fights was August 29, 2018, and it was in the old, old studio.

[John Feitelberg]

That was a couple years before COVID doing like. Like, it was. They were. They're not clips, as we now know. Yeah, we were doing, like, something to promote the pod, but it was just promotion.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It was not like, check this out. It's gonna go viral. Correct. Like a couple. But, man, it's funny to think that, like, so 2018 is old office. First time interviewing these guys and then COVID 19. Granted, it was like the end of 19, but, like, I would. I would not have told you that our start in the Comedy Realm and COVID 19 were like back to back.

[John Feitelberg]

But they're like two years away because this is February.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right. So that's early 18. And it was end. But I. I would have. I would have told you that. I mean, if I really broke down the math, I would realize this. But, like, if I was to rip it off the cuff, I would say there's like a four year in between that.

[John Feitelberg]

See, I would have said we started doing comedy or comedians. 17, 18. Yeah, I knew we moved here in 16. I knew we did about a six months. Dan was still on the show probably when we came here or something like that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But think about the office switch. So, like, our start in comedy was in the.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah. Six months Dan was on the show. I bet six months also was on the show. Comedians.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. And then. And then. Right to the new office.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And so the new office, like, how long were we in the new office before COVID hit?

[John Feitelberg]

Not long.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, that's. That's what's me up. I thought. I would have thought that we were at this office. We know this was the old office. Was not in covert at all.

[Jackie]

Right.

[John Feitelberg]

No.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Right. Okay.

[John Feitelberg]

We had already moved office for like, like three to five months before COVID.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's crazy that I'm off that's a double timeline with that. Yeah.

[Jackie]

I started during COVID and it was always this office.

[John Feitelberg]

The first clip that I have from.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The new office is July 18, 2019.

[John Feitelberg]

Oh, wow. Okay.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So that's the first clip, though. We've done everything first.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Anyway, the, the, I just think the butterfly effect is very cool of the hypotheticals. And while I think that was what clearly the audience was doing, because I, and I never said, like, these were funny. I guess I probably said, if you have any more, would you rather send them in? But I wasn't like, that's what this show is going to be. It just happened that way. And so I think that was good for that fan base. And clearly it worked. I also think that was. There was no ever going to be any, like, Dave involvement once it became this, like, silly type. Yeah. I mean, because I think he was excited for when I said, like, let's do these voicemails. Kind of like, let me know how it goes. And then I was like, I don't even know if I, like, gave him an update, but it was like a guy called in and pretended to be your mom and called himself Patty Portnoy. And we were talking about, like, Warren SAP versus a cheetah, Midgets and Rollerblades and like, you know, your mom's dick. I think he was like, I never want to hear about this again. I, I, I didn't. Again, not by design.

[John Feitelberg]

Not interested.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Not by design or any of any. I didn't think one way or the other, like, oh, I just wasn't thinking about, like, Dave's approval or support at that point at all. But in hindsight, could not have picked a worse product. If I was ever looking for, like, hey, can I get, Can I get the boss to do no Shot? I don't know what show would have necessarily, like, jumped out at him, but it ain't that one.

[John Feitelberg]

I know that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I don't.

[John Feitelberg]

I mean, has any show ever jumped out?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Well, that's, yeah, maybe the other point.

[John Feitelberg]

Is, like, BFFs, I guess.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. If it's not, like, his show. I mean, call her Daddy was. I would say that, you know, But I'm like, I wonder if I don't think that that show jumped out at him. I think he was, like, the opportunity. Like, I can see that. But as far as, like, what he actually would like and enjoy, I don't even know what that would be.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

Danny was saying the 12, 6, 12, 18, 24 challenge, you did jump on that. He said that he did that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That, that. Yeah. So what? A lot of. Yeah, yeah, that was. I mean, we didn't invent that, that voicemail, but that was a. I think we popularized, I think a lot of these things we didn't do. Like, there are people who think horse sized duck versus a duck sized horse is like a KFC Radio thing. It's not, but we put it out there in a way for more people to. At that point it was like word of mouth, right? Like how else, you know, a chain email or some like that. Like, it wasn't really ways to spread those kind of things, but. Wait, what did you just say a second ago?

[Jackie]

6:12.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, so I. KFC radio. I think, I think one of our lasting, like legacies too is the things that would like, were birthed from the podcast and then went on. Yeah, because like, I, I mean, Dave's pizza empire came about because of the pizza burrito challenge, which came about because of hypothetical on KFC Radio. Now, Dave always loved pizza and maybe that was going to be something he was going to do no matter what. But it started because somebody called in and said, would you only eat Mexican or pizza for the rest of your life? Dan. Dan was hardcore Mexican food. And I don't think Dave listened to the show, but like, it got out there enough that he picked up on it was like, it's got to be pizza. Next thing you know, they're dressed up in pizzas and burritos playing kickball and you know, we go from there. And 6 12, 18, 24 was a thing too. Dave like pretending to jerk off 12 times in the bathroom. So. And again, that's feels a little bit like always the bridesmaid, never the bride. That it's like we started these things and then they went wild elsewhere. You know, it's like Dan's mustache and his like irrational confidence and some of his Floyd Mayweather takes and all these things, like, was where he cultivated his character and then it thrived elsewhere. But like, that, it was kind of a little, A little like breeding ground for a lot of these rivalries or, or running jokes or whatever, you know. So what is the max amount of.

[Jackie]

Times one can jerk off in a day?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I, I actually never put your brain to it. I, I'm sure you can get despicable with it, but like, in a natural sense, I think I would max out at like 4.

[John Feitelberg]

Okay, so I, I think you were.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Heavy, right, Weren't you? Like, I could do this a thousand times.

[John Feitelberg]

I could. Like, like, like right now I got 12.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No problem. Pushing 40 is crazy.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, I might have 18 in me. I've never really tried, but, but 12.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Are you, are you podcasting right now? You really mean it?

[John Feitelberg]

I, I mean, you really mean.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

If you take walks, what do you think you've done, like, naturally, like in your personal life? Not for show.

[John Feitelberg]

Like, I'm probably at 12. No way.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, you don't. Right?

[John Feitelberg]

Huh?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

You're joking, right?

[John Feitelberg]

I'm not really joking, but I'm kind of joking. But like, it's, it's attainable. It's attainable.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, yeah, it's like there have been.

[John Feitelberg]

Days of hungover, didn't get out of bed all day. Yeah, we've hit nothing. No, that's.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I know what you're talking about, but I. Again, it's like once in the morning, once in the afternoon, like once before bed.

[John Feitelberg]

Jerked off like four times during a commercial break.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Before.

[John Feitelberg]

12. 12.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

John's a real, A real stallion in the bedroom. You know, it lasts a long time. I'll bust four nuts before we come back from commercial break, babe. I, I think so.

[John Feitelberg]

Wait, it's beers, miles, dogs, donuts, jerk offs.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yes.

[John Feitelberg]

Okay, so looking at this now.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, let's, let's, let's do 20 years later, 15 years later, whatever. We're now 40 year old men.

[John Feitelberg]

I don't even, I don't remember what my original answer was.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

This is a really good. Because all of this has flipped for me. Like I, I could not drink like six beers right now. Like, I mean, I could, but like, the answer used to be like, all right, I can drink a case of beer. So let's start with that.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And now that's off the table, so.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, I probably gotta go. Beers, six. Yeah. Jerk offs. 12 an hour. In trouble.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

The donuts. The donuts. The donuts are the problem. People overlook the donuts, they think about their dick and they think about being wasted on the beer. And now those are valid concerns. Eating any more than a dozen donuts is going to be a problem.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, no, like, like, I, I just, this is impossible.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Oh, and then the miles. So, so my thing was always I have to pick the six miles. I personally, I cannot, I don't think I could do six. So. And, and back then when I was younger, like more of an, like perhaps, but I was like, I have to do the miles first. And I think I said 24 beers. Even though that would be a lot for me. I, I could put down beers in my prime, but that's, I can't just.

[Jackie]

Poo, poo 24 beers, Krispy Kreme. So that's like 100 calories a donut. So then it's like 24. You could go 200, 2000. Oh, is it.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Oh, a Krispy Kreme donut is just like pure sugar.

[John Feitelberg]

But sugar's not highly caloric.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Oh, okay. I don't know about calories, unless maybe it's 200.

[Jackie]

I think you can knock out 18 easy.

[John Feitelberg]

I eat a lot of sugar. Yeah, it's.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, 190 calories.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. I, I remember thinking my strong suits here are going to be donuts and beers. I eat a lot. I mean, I love donuts. And at the time I was drinking and it's the miles and the jerk offs that are a problem.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, the. Like, I, I don't. I. I guess I would have to go six beers, 12 jerk offs, 18 donuts, 24 miles. But, like, that would be.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And it's all in one day, by the way. So you got to run. You know, you're gonna do a marathon. A marathon is something that people train for years, and then you have to do that in the same day that you're drinking 18 beers, eating 12 donuts and jerking off, just running around a track. I, I also, I remember thinking we tried to come up with like a female version of this, and I think it's like, impossible.

[John Feitelberg]

It's just like, girls can come in unlimited amounts for sure.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's cooking base.

[John Feitelberg]

It's cooking base.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

But anyway, to wrap this up, that was the, the first episode was those hype, those hypotheticals and would you rathers. And then I, I probably. I think I did. I want to say you came in like episode 13. 13. And I think at that point it was once a week, so 13 weeks, decent amount of time. Like, I don't remember feeling like, like, I can't do this anymore myself. I think I was just like, it would just be better. Or maybe you're just a guest. At first, I think I just had you on as a guest and I was like, that was good. You should stay.

[John Feitelberg]

I think.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I don't think it was ever a plan of, like, I need a co host.

[John Feitelberg]

Yes. I think it was a guest. And then I think it was. And Brendan liked the magician answer.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, the magician.

[John Feitelberg]

You like, you should stay.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. Which is. That's another way. The question was just like, if you could wipe one group of people off the face of the earth, who would it be? And John just paused and he was just like, yeah, magicians.

[John Feitelberg]

I didn't Even think about that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's a good one. Magicians.

[John Feitelberg]

Weird me out now. Are we talking, like, David Blaine?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Magicians, David Copperfield, all of them.

[John Feitelberg]

Anyone who's done a card trick ever. I don't like being pricked. I don't like people who think they're smarter than me.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Magicians. Oh, thanks. That was a phenomenal answer. I don't think we can go any higher than that, so let's just keep it moving. Magicians. To this day, it still slays me. Like, a lot of. A lot of, like, Internet comedy is. Doesn't age that well or like, things.

[John Feitelberg]

You see, you're like, no comedy age well, period.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, agreed. But that. I. I can still laugh at that to this day because it was just.

[John Feitelberg]

You know, it was.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

It's obviously a loaded question where, like, are you going to say a race or an ethnic group or something? Make yourself look like an. And. And then if you're not going to say that, you got to get creative and give it some thought. And I. I don't think I gave you a question ahead of time. Right.

[John Feitelberg]

No, no.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah. So that was just like, on the spot and like, the last thing you expect is someone to be like. Like, wipe all magicians off the face of the Earth. That was very funny. Yeah. And then that. That. That was the second. You know, the second era was me and John the first time around. But, yeah, that first one was cool. It was exciting.

[John Feitelberg]

That was. That was a tough one because it was like, you can write one. Wipe one group of people off the place Earth. You're like, yeah, can't say my first.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Answer or my second or third or like 10. But Magicians is okay.

[John Feitelberg]

Magicians is all right. Jackie, you got. You got such a look there. Like, you're like. Like, I can't believe. What do you think I was saying in your head? What did I just say?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

I'm pretty sure my answer my. On the podcast was like, Asians.

[John Feitelberg]

No, your reaction was like, what's your.

[Jackie]

What is your group?

[John Feitelberg]

I was just making a joke. I don't know. I don't have one. But it was whatever you pictured and that was that. What did you picture.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Over here?

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, Jackie had a picture. Like I said something.

[Jackie]

No, I. I thought that.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, that. That is.

[Jackie]

I just knew, like, I. I didn't think of a specific group. I just knew it probably had to be like, a.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Not a good one. Yeah, I mean, the more I think.

[Jackie]

About it, like, magicians is the only acceptable, very good.

[John Feitelberg]

Magicians are zookeepers.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

That's a funny one, too.

[John Feitelberg]

That's a funny one, too. But Magicians was episode 2020. Oh, wow. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

No, number 19. Number 19. Okay. I thought it was teenage scenes, but that's still. So I did about 20 weeks. So what's that? That's five months. Yeah. So that's a. Because I. I did feel like people have said, like, oh, you know, he did it by himself at first. And in my head I was like, I did like, a couple weeks and then I brought John on. But that.

[John Feitelberg]

That. I didn't think it was that long either.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Yeah, that was in my. That was in my apartment on 89th and Lexington. I remember that. Studio. Studio. I just remember I put together the desk that I was working at that I remember being like, okay, I work from home now, and I need to make it like, I. It's an office. Like, I'm not going anywhere, but, like, this is where I work and this is where I sleep or hang out or whatever. I was like, I'm gonna get a nice desk. And I bought a 8,000pound, like, mahogany desk, and I put it together, and it took me like, 14 hours to put it together. And in the end, I, like, put the drawers on backwards and I just left it. So. But I remember being like, yes, this desk is going to make me feel like now, man. Yeah. Yeah. And I was like. And then it was just like a heavy desk that I was like, if I need to move this, it's really. It's really inconvenient.

[Jackie]

How old were you?

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

2012. I was. I was born in 85, so that's 27. Wait, I was gonna say 28, so probably 12 plus 15. 27. Yeah. Oh, 26. 27.

[John Feitelberg]

I was gonna say something wrong. So you're probably close. Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

And then. Yeah, so that was just kind of the start of it all. And I, I. There is a part of me I have connected with that guy Sean, who did the Rollerblade Question. And I think we either had him on the show or just DM'd or something like that. But there is probably, like, a handful of dudes who called into this show. I mean, it's not much of a claim to fame, but you. You could be like, I was one of the guys who, like the first podcast at Barstool that people have been very nice about saying how influential we were and how like. Like how it opened a lot of doors really started because of those dudes.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

So the Butterfly effect is a cool one.

[Jackie]

I've listened to, like, some of the first episodes, and the callers are all just like, the drunkest guys.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

A lot of face. We're in a college dorm, probably.

[John Feitelberg]

Call the line.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Call the line.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Say that thing that's really funny, and it's like, yeah, it's funny when you're hammered.

[John Feitelberg]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kevin Clancy (KFC)]

Not funny to me, but. But there was some, you know, creative ones, some interesting ones, and that. That's what got the ball rolling before the John era. And, you know, we'll get into that next week. Next episode on KFC Radio. Sam.
