It's another edition of KFC Radio on the Barstool Sports Network. Very special Love is Blind edition of the podcast. We are the first people ever aside from The Love is Blind contestants to be inside the pods.
John Feidelberg
Participants.
Kevin Clancy
Participants. The first time that two people have ever been in a pod together at the same time. We have Jackie and Feitelberg on one side of the pod and me on the other side of the wall. So we're going to do a first ever pod within the podcast and bring you KFC radio, Love is Blind style. I'm geeking out. This is.
John Feidelberg
This is.
Kevin Clancy
To me, this is like, you know, Star wars nerds getting to see the Star wars set or something like that. This is my guilty pleasure. I'm not even guilty about it. It's just my pleasure. I love this goddamn show. Season eight out now, the first six episodes, and I am like Mr. Love is blind. So this to me is a bucket list that I didn't even know I had. The fact that I get to drink out of the Love is Blind golden goblets while I'm sitting on the Love is Blind couch talking to you guys through the wall is maybe peak barstool for me.
John Feidelberg
This is a sharp, stark reminder, I guess, that we do not work in the entertainment industry. Like, I guess you would consider. I call like, barstool like the media or I don't know, I guess kind of it would be entertainment industry. And then you see this and you're like, I work in my mom's basement.
Kevin Clancy
100%. The blogger, podcaster stereotype is so true. This is like, these guys are the real deal. They're asking us all questions, like, I.
John Feidelberg
Don'T know, we're just going to talk to each other. I've been hiding for a half hour. Just. I've never been asking a question.
Kevin Clancy
I've never been so nervous to walk down a hallway before.
Jackie
This is like a. Also, as a producer, like, that's a fake title for me. Like, these are real producers. I don't do shit.
Kevin Clancy
We'll get into our show, we'll talk a little bit as Love is Blind, but we're also gonna do our regular podcast. I have a question. Are either of you nervous you're gonna fall in love with me? There's a. Listen, it could happen to either of you. Jackie or Feidelberg. Yeah, maybe, you know, we're in the setting. There's the twinkly lights, the mood lighting's on. I'm gonna get cozy on the couch. All of a sudden, you know, you start spilling your guts a little bit, maybe we'll have a little inter KFC romance, more so than already exists with me and Feidelberg.
Jackie
I wonder, because apparently, like, social anxiety, it's a big thing to like, you have to see somebody's face in order to connect with them. So I'm always like, I don't think love is blind would work for me because I have immense amount of social anxiety. But like, I could see now how you get swept up in it, how it's just like conversation.
Kevin Clancy
Well, yeah, you're shallow and materialistic.
Jackie
Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
You want to, you know, like the dude from the thrift shop, if he was not hot, you would not be gushing about him. By the way, we have an update on that. We'll get to that in a little bit. This is kind of co times for me, though. That's what this reminds me of. It's not quite cuz, like you can't see anything, but the idea of like, I mean, everybody was kind of doing that stuff through zoom, but it was like you're in your own home. You're in. You're isolated, but you're still. People were either going on, like, not dates, but they were talking to people who they were hooking up with, or there was like the happy hours or whatever. And I loved that time of life. So I think I would be. I think I would crush love is blind. I don't know if I would find somebody and all that, but just like the. Hang out in here and talk for several hours. I think I could do that.
John Feidelberg
What are you wearing?
Kevin Clancy
Wouldn't you like to know?
John Feidelberg
Well, like, in my. I am picturing it in my. In my head. You are naked as.
Jackie
Dude.
Kevin Clancy
Well, I mean, I'm about to get fully cozy.
Jackie
I feel like you guys want the room.
John Feidelberg
Like, I don't. I don't know why I can't stop thinking about it, but.
Kevin Clancy
See, I told you someone's gonna fall in love.
John Feidelberg
I'm like. It's. I'm like, Kevin's over there naked, eating yogurt. Yogurt raisins or whatever. They got over. They do like, Kevin's living the dream. I got boned being in the room with Jackie. Kevin.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, I got. I got. They got all sorts of snacks in here. They got. They got. I didn't realize. They got the. The liquor. They got the whiskey, the vodka, the tequila.
John Feidelberg
Jackie had three shots when we first got the.
Kevin Clancy
I told her to do two more. I think she's five shots in. So we're out in la. The what? Let's. What should we start with? You want to dive right into feidelberg? Should we just recap kind of the whole trip? I got A few thoughts on our LA trip.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, you go.
Kevin Clancy
Well, actually, this ties in nicely. So oddly enough, flying out to la, I don't know how this is possible. I think it was the first time me and Feidelberg ever sat next to each other on a plane. We've been doing this for 15 years. Flying, traveling all over the place. Every single time I get on a plane, he's always like two or three rows in front of me. He's behind me. We're never sitting together. First time we ever have sat next to each other. It makes no sense. I don't know how that's like, statistically possible. We were giggling and laughing. We were just piling it up. Yeah.
Jackie
When I walked by. You guys are so cute next to each other.
Kevin Clancy
I'm telling you, there's gonna be a love connection. We're gonna walk out of here being like, wait a minute, I'm gay for John. They got to do a love is blind gay thing next. That's gotta be. That's just sitting there. That one's free for you guys.
John Feidelberg
This, this has been a dry run is what's happening right now. We'll see what happens if you make two ugly guys fall in love.
Kevin Clancy
Now, one of the most famous love is blind moments was Chelsea and Jimmy, where Chelsea made the fatal choice to tell Jimmy that her celebrity doppelganger was Megan Fox, which was not a good idea. She's a pretty girl. And even when people do see it, they go, oh, I kind of get it. The eyes are pretty and you know, the forehead, there's a little bit of resemblance. When you are on a dating show, particularly where you cannot see each other and you have to visualize what the other person looks like. And you are a red blooded American man who is between the ages of like eighteen and a thousand, and you tell him that you look like Megan Fox. That's. That's only gonna make them think one thing. I mean, that was, that was a, A crazy choice. Even if you actually really did look a lot like Megan Fox, there's no way I'm putting that bar up there. Because when that wall raises and you just look like a normal girl who kind of looks like Megan Fox, you're fucked.
Jackie
So I watched that and I, like, I stand by it. He asked, who do you, what celebrity do you look like? And she's probably been told, like, I. People tell me I've never gotten what like a celebrity look like except one person said Shailene Woodley. So if. And like, I don't look at all like Shailene Woodley. But if somebody asked, I would be like, I guess if I had to pick one to give you, like, I probably wouldn't actually say that.
Kevin Clancy
Well, that's, that's my point.
Jackie
I could see how it's like, you asked the question. She answered the question.
Kevin Clancy
Yes. And she also, if you go back.
Jackie
And forth, it does look like Megan Fox kind of.
Kevin Clancy
She throws out like a ton of disclaimers where she's like, not really, but I'm just saying a couple times on the plane and like in this restaurant or whatever was like a couple people have said it to me. So she tries to, like, disclaimer and soften it as much as possible. But the point remains that if, if I said that to you in just like in a regular conversation and you can look at me and go, oh, okay, I kind of see it. But you probably shouldn't run around telling people that. It's one thing, it's another thing. If you're falling in love and you're flirting and you're talking and now all of a sudden you think that this girl looks like Megan Fox. You're like, I struck. I hit the lottery. This is it.
John Feidelberg
Because when someone says Megan Fox, you're picturing the FHM photo shoot on the other side of the.
Kevin Clancy
You're picturing Transformers. Megan Fox under the hood, the booty shorts, the orange tank top. She's like, it's not that. She also just said my celebrity look like is a hot, hot celebrity girl. It's like an iconic girl.
John Feidelberg
Well, that's the important word right there. Because I was going to say iconic because when you say Michael Jordan, I'm not picturing him on the Wizards. Not that Megan Fox has a Wizards era.
Kevin Clancy
Exactly.
John Feidelberg
When you say Tom Brady, I'm not picturing him on the Chiefs. I'm sorry, on the Bucks. I'm picturing him in his iconic moments. And if you say Megan Fox, she's got a few iconic to me.
Kevin Clancy
To me, there's like a Mount Rushmore of girls who were like a clear cut number one in their time. And I actually think I might have to extend it now beyond just four, because I think I would actually say Sydney Sweeney is a new one, but I think Pamela Anderson, Baywatch era, 90s Britney Spears, when she came on the scene, Megan Fox. And then there's. Who's like one after. Maybe like a Margot Robbie. Maybe a. Yeah, I, I was gonna.
John Feidelberg
Say Robbie didn't have an iconic moment.
Kevin Clancy
But Wolf of Wall street, that was It. If you. You have to, like, close your eyes and be able to think of, like, a thing that everybody would agree upon. And I. I don't know exactly which one it is for Sydney Sweeney, but I think she's reached that moment. I think she's reached that level where, you know what it really is. Once the. Once there's a. A viral moment where the Internet is calling you mid.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, yeah.
Kevin Clancy
That's when you know you're actually like, the hottest person in the world. That's the biggest compliment you can get.
Jackie
Do people do that for Megan Fox?
Kevin Clancy
No, no, because she was, like, pre. Oh, yeah, yeah. You know, now that's really only Margot Robbie and. And Sydney Sweeney who had done it. But. But when. So when you say any of those names, if you ran around Jackie being like, somebody told me, I like Margot Robbie. Well, people are going to take a certain thing. I can't even imagine. Again, she was a pretty girl. I think they're all on good terms now, as far as I know. But, like, the wall goes up and you're like, well, you fudgeing lied to me. That is.
John Feidelberg
It's just hitting me how Jackie's is so perfect that, like, Jackie's doppelganger Jackie's like, don't get the bar too high. Is. I look like the girl Aaron Rodgers didn't marry because she smelled. Aaron Rodgers was like, ah, this girl stinks. Wait, is that why that was? I'm sure it's not actual truth, but it was. I didn't make it up myself. It was like a rumor.
Jackie
I mean, Shailene Woodley is.
John Feidelberg
She had bad hygiene.
Jackie
Oh, what?
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, yeah, she's all. She's one of those, like, crunchy, you know, hippie, dippy types.
Jackie
Okay, well, I still would be very lucky if somebody's. Whatever.
Kevin Clancy
By the way, Feidelberg, I have officially taken off a piece of clothing.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, well, I was getting there too, but I'm too entranced now. We're in California. I ass. I assume the participants can smoke weed. I don't know. I don't.
Kevin Clancy
I'm not sure what the rules are. That's a good question, by the way. That's a little.
John Feidelberg
I'm. I'm just entranced by this wall. Like, if I. Oh, if you were like, I'm not high currently, and if I was high, I'd fall in love with whoever was on the other side of it.
Kevin Clancy
So this is the Love is blind episode. Season 8 is now available on Netflix. The first six episodes dropped on Valentine's Day. And every Friday, they're dropping two new episodes until we get through to the big reunion episode with Nick Lachey and Vanessa Lachey. Now, a couple highlights I'm gonna bring you as we go through the episode. I'm gonna be dropping highlights from this season of season eight. You should go check it out. The number one reason you gotta watch this year is Madison. At least for the first six episodes. This chick is an absolute rocket and bulldozing her way through this show. I mean, she's just surrounded by these wholesome Minneapolis, Minnesota Midwest guys who have no idea how to handle a chick of her caliber. This girl is tatted up. She is a bad. She's talking about her pierced nipples, she's talking about how she likes to role play. She's twerking, shaking that ass. And then the big moment for the first batch of episodes is her telling her man Mason how she loves cream pies. I mean, this guy, you could watch his head, his brain is scrambled, his knees are wobbling as she tells him that she would put his pickle in her mouth and that she loves a good old fashioned cream pie. These guys don't know how to handle a girl like this. She is ripping through the Internet right now. Came out as bisexual. She's talking spicy in the pods. Some people are speculating maybe she makes her money on a certain website on the Internet that young ladies have been engaging in. There's a lot going on with Madison. She's one of the number one reasons to check out season eight. So tune in. The first six episodes are already available and every single week two more are coming out. Season eight on Love is Blind. Check it out now. But it's like when you find out that the Home Alone House is a soundstage and not a, a house. I was like, oh yeah, of course. This is a major production.
John Feidelberg
Or Jim and Pam's engagement, which we just talked about.
Kevin Clancy
That is one of my favorite little. That actually inspired me. I've been, I've been. I'm trying. The next thing I'm going to try to do is make themed versions of One Minute Man. I'll still do One Minute man where I just do the news, but then I want to do one for video games. I want to do one for television entertainment. And that one made me be like, this is such an interesting little tidbit that, like, I want to make a video about this. The fact that the most iconic shot of the office, Jim and Pam's proposal on the Turnpike was a $250,000 shot where they just recreated the entire New Jersey turnpike in a Best Buy parking lot. Oh.
Jackie
What? I didn't know that.
Kevin Clancy
The shot from. It's from across the street. So you see all the cars whizzing by and it's like a long distance shot of him getting down on one knee. I think it's raining or whatever. And I just thought they like, I don't know, roped off the Jersey Turnpike for like a couple hours. Which again I guess is stupid. But wow. To build that is like insane.
Jackie
That's crazy.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, like 18 wheelers on it was they. They built like an oval track around it. So cars were just going 55 around constantly. And Jim and Pam or. Yeah, Jim and Pam could like feel the wind off the cars because it was just this tiny little thing in a parking lot.
Kevin Clancy
I'm actually surprised. That almost feels cheap. 250. Knowing how big of a production it was.
John Feidelberg
Yeah.
Jackie
Kevin, remember your phase where you just only say movie magic facts or whatever?
Kevin Clancy
Yes, that. So my thing about the movie magic movie facts, one minute man is going to be. I'm starting to think all of these are fake. I really think that all these guys are like, hey man, we'll go viral if you just say that. That was unscripted. They just did it for. For Denzel in Training Day that it's actually pretty funny that he said that every single time he called Ethan Hawke the N word. He was just ad libbing it. But there's a whole bunch of like his King Kong speech and a lot of his things they all said was ad libbed. And I'm like, I mean maybe you are talking about these guys are like the, the best of the best. So maybe they do all ad lib it. But it just seems a little suspicious that all of a sudden every single movie has a moment like that.
John Feidelberg
But I would. I mean it doesn't. That doesn't surprise me at all. Well, working for like three months and in those three months they have one crazy moment. I think that's pretty. That's understandable.
Kevin Clancy
How often are you guys ad libbing on out of Order and stuff?
John Feidelberg
Very often.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, right. So if you chumps are doing it that sure, Denzel is. But anyway, to go back to Celebrity Doppelganger Feidelberg was getting settled to sit down on his. His seat in the plane. By the way, we got the good, good seats. The first class turn into a bed. Oh mama.
John Feidelberg
Kevin was out before the plane took off.
Kevin Clancy
Light, man. I had. I was supposed to be with my kids this Weekend. So I didn't have them. So I had them all week leading up to it. Getting up 6am to get them to school. Oh, nightmare. I was like, I'm going to bed, baby. That was the best sleep I've had in a while. But Vitalberg, getting settled, took off his hat and kind of like pushed his hair forward and transformed into Ed Sheeran.
John Feidelberg
I mean, I just did it again. You can't see me because love is blind. Right over here is. I froze. I was trying to think of that Sheeran song, I'm a Sheeran head.
Kevin Clancy
What was the song you danced to your dog with?
John Feidelberg
That was thinking out loud.
Kevin Clancy
Great song. Great moment. That moment makes me cry. Have you ever seen that, Jackie?
Jackie
No.
Kevin Clancy
Feidelberg, at. At the barstool dog show, we all had to do like a, you know, Westminster dog type thing where you have to perform with your pup and he slow danced with his dog to Ed Sheeran and then he had to like put her down.
John Feidelberg
Both those dogs are dead now, so cry harder.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, but didn't. When you were dancing with her, didn't you know it was almost time?
John Feidelberg
Yeah, yeah.
Kevin Clancy
She was like a real moment.
Jackie
I'm going through a thing with dogs right now where they like really don't fuck with me.
Kevin Clancy
Sort of like. Well, yeah, keep going.
Jackie
The just like. I mean, dogs kind of never like it's something I haven't really wanted to like, address like, like be honest with myself about. But like dogs really don't like me. And the past three have like growled at me and their owners are like, oh my God. They like normally don't do that. Which is like three in a row is kind of a bad like, you know, three peat to have. And it really is getting in my head because I feel like dogs liking you is like the tell sign that you're like a good person. So it makes me feel like maybe have like a bad. I don't know.
Kevin Clancy
Well, yeah, in. In like in this dog led America, if you're not. If you're not liked by the dogs, you are trash.
Jackie
Yeah. Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
So like, to be honest, if you were doing love is blind and you told somebody dogs don't like me, you would probably get x'd off their list.
Jackie
It's a major red flag that I understand. And like I. But I don't know how to fix it. Like they're not giving me because they can't talk. You know me.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, they definitely can't talk. That is true. Dogs. Dogs can't give you.
John Feidelberg
I keep asking them but they're tight lipped about it.
Jackie
We're in a standstill right now.
Kevin Clancy
Maybe you smell bad.
Jackie
Yeah, I literally am there.
John Feidelberg
Do you. Do you put forth too much effort?
Jackie
Yeah. So I think part of my problem is like I love them so much and I shriek a little bit. They don't like the high pitched noise. They don't like the energy. I think they come with kind of an intense energy that's kind of like, you know, I want. I want to squeeze them and they can tell that I'm like about to squeeze them.
John Feidelberg
You're like a grandmother. It's like, all right, enough.
Jackie
Yeah, yeah. Exactly, exactly. But then, but then I've tried to come out the more chill. Like I'm kind of just like, I don't give a fuck if you like me or not. But they can still sense it.
John Feidelberg
Jacket. I'm more of a cat lady.
Jackie
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kevin Clancy
I mean, lord knows if you make some of those noises that you make, like the one you make when you're laughing, like dogs would be like this. This thing is not human. I don't know what this animal is.
John Feidelberg
What about get a dog whistle and silently, like, like sneaky until your friends don't see it. You're just like. And the dog comes like, I don't know what's happening. They just started falling in love with me.
Jackie
Yeah.
John Feidelberg
Maybe.
Jackie
Treats in my pocket.
John Feidelberg
Treats in your pocket. Exactly.
Jackie
Peanut butter. Yeah.
John Feidelberg
Yeah.
Jackie
Okay.
John Feidelberg
A con bar if you just keep.
Kevin Clancy
Peanut butter on a spoon in your pocket.
John Feidelberg
I've been eating peanut butter off spoons lately. That's a good move. Oh, I mean, I take it to bed, I leave it on my nightstand.
Kevin Clancy
Dude, that is like one of my all time favorite snacks. Just spoons of peanut butter.
John Feidelberg
It's great.
Jackie
That's. What do you mean you keep it on your bedside table?
John Feidelberg
Like before I go to bed, I grab a spoon and I grab a big thing of peanut butter and I walk to bed licking like a lollipop.
Kevin Clancy
But you. Do you bring the peanut butter into bed or just the.
John Feidelberg
Just the spoon. I gotta look at myself.
Kevin Clancy
Well, don't act like you're above that because Jackie. Oh no. He comes down to breakfast this morning, opens up his backpack. By the way, Feidelberg travels with a backpack. That is Hank's backpack from the barstool blackout tour. Which not only means it's 10 plus years old, it means that that has seen things, substances, smells, fluids, cities, that you should not be carrying that around.
Jackie
But I would imagine a lot of weed has been in that background.
John Feidelberg
I was gonna do it for the adrenaline rush. Every time I go to tsa, I'm gonna find something. He.
Kevin Clancy
He opens up that old dusty ass backpack and pulls out a soaking wet hoodie.
Jackie
Ew.
Kevin Clancy
And says. He goes, honestly, never more. Never have you had more of a Charlie Kelly moment than that. You.
John Feidelberg
You.
Kevin Clancy
You were like, disheveled, like you ordered your breakfast. You pull out a wet sweatshirt. You go, I gotta. I gotta hang this up. I gotta dry it. I've been. I've been shooting it with a. A hair dryer for the last hour. And I'm like, what is going on? He goes, well. Well, John, you want to tell them?
John Feidelberg
Why?
Kevin Clancy
Tell them what happened.
John Feidelberg
I just. So. So Paul Brown, the guy whose room I'm staying in. Wait. Yeah, we gotta. We gotta.
Kevin Clancy
We gotta tell the whole story.
John Feidelberg
So. I don't know. I'm staying in some other guy's room. I don't know.
Kevin Clancy
We're on the way home last night, dude, we're so tired. We're all a little drunk. He's high. We're fucked up. And John just goes, I'm in my hotel room and there's an orange and an apple for Mr. Patrick Brown. And we, me, Pabs, and Jackie in the backseat. I was like, what the fuck did you just say? He's like, yeah, my orange and apple for Mr. Patrick Brown. And I was like, are you on the planet Earth right now? What are you saying? He thought it was so normal that there was just random stray fruit in his room assigned to someone named Mr. Patrick Brown. You're just in someone else's hotel room, dude.
Jackie
He said, I have an apple and an orange. Pause. But it's for Mr. Patrick Brown.
Kevin Clancy
Mr. Patrick Brown is going to go down in history, man. I'm going to call you Mr. Patrick Brown forever.
John Feidelberg
It's. I don't. Look, we never got an answer. We're out of the hotel. Some guy never came in, but I don't know. The room was labeled for someone else, but my key worked on the door, so I don't know what to do. But there was. There was an apple and an orange and a note to Mr. Paul Brown. I said, patrick last night. But when I got to the room, I realized it was for Paul. And. And under the note, I finally picked it up last night after I took the picture to send to you guys. And under the note was chocolates. And I was like, well, now we're speaking my language. And. But I fell asleep right away when we got to the room, like, Immediately and woke up with a sugar. Needing a sugar fix. Probably around 3am Knew I had the chocolates. Went over, I guess. I know all this is just speculation.
Kevin Clancy
And the fact that he doesn't know is crazy.
John Feidelberg
Grab some crab, some chocolate, ate a little bit, but then just fell asleep with the rest on me. And I woke up and I just covered.
Jackie
What?
John Feidelberg
I was just covered in chocolate.
Jackie
You're always covered in chocolate though.
Kevin Clancy
It's like always.
Jackie
It's got to be an easy fix like that. Can't be that hard to wake up without chocolate.
John Feidelberg
Look, when I go to bed, I'm not like, all right, so I'll get up and I'll get some sex. It's just happening. It's a thing that's happening to me. You guys should be more, more like sympathetic.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah. You know, you have like an affliction.
John Feidelberg
It's just happened.
Kevin Clancy
This is like a drink.
Jackie
You're covered in chocolate, I'm covered in peanut butter. Kevin, you gotta pick a condiment.
John Feidelberg
But when. So then that was like probably 3am Right? 6am I wake up, I go take a piss in the bathroom. And as I'm walking out of the bathroom, I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror. And I was like, the is that. And I turn around, just. I mean, it's just chocolate everywhere. Everywhere. So then you washed it in the sink. Like, you want to talk about a hard wake up? I've had some hard wake ups in my day. The chocolate wake ups are about as bad as like, dude, the fact that.
Kevin Clancy
Like, like capital C, capital W, chocolate wake up phrase for you.
John Feidelberg
Like, because it's, it's. I can't. I'm not even mad at myself. Like when I wake up hungover and shit like that, I'm like, john, you decided to do all this, live with the consequences of your actions.
Kevin Clancy
It's one thing when you were doing it when you were 25, you actually had a reason. The fact that you're doing it at 35 when you're sober is worse.
John Feidelberg
I'm like, like the most insane kind of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde where it's like at night I turn into this new man and he just loves sugar.
Kevin Clancy
But bro, thank God.
John Feidelberg
Thank God. Because you would literally have a worse version of a guy who goes out like, killing people.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, I have a couple candy bars. Thank God you're somewhat regular and adjusted. Otherwise you probably would just be killing people at night.
Jackie
Freak.
Kevin Clancy
Imagine that you're on Love is Blind. You're like so in the middle of the night. I can't control myself. Might range anywhere from sleeping in chocolate to murdering someone. I don't know.
John Feidelberg
Like, just talking to the other person like it's a podcast. Like. Yeah. So I'm in Patrick Brown's room, and I was. I mean, that was another fear, though. Like, as I was going to sleep, I was like, I don't know if another guy's coming into this room. I don't know if I'm splitting his bed.
Jackie
I. For some reason. Also, the visual. The picture that you sent, because you described as there's one apple, one orange, and, like, a long plate. But I was picturing, like, they. They probably. If they're having a fruit assortment for Mr. Patrick Brown, like, it's probably. Well, you know, like, it probably looks pretty. That's exactly how it's described.
Kevin Clancy
Like, it was exactly stray fruit.
John Feidelberg
I think what realistically happened there was more fruit, is that Paul Brown had checked out of the room, took a fruit on his way out the door, and then they didn't clean it. And then I just slept in his bed. I got a couple chocolate stains in his bed. I think. I think that's what happened last night.
Kevin Clancy
Why didn't you get. Why didn't we all get fruit, though?
John Feidelberg
Well, we're not. All right, Paul Brown.
Jackie
Yeah, he might be.
Kevin Clancy
He might be, you know, big shot for all we know. Little update since we're. By the way.
John Feidelberg
Wait. Sorry. I wanted to say we. Somehow I skip past it, but with the edge here and stuff, the funny story that happened, I. I don't shy away from the Ed Sheeran lookalikes. I think I do. I think they're accurate. I think it's a pretty solid doppelganger for me. I think I'd like a better one. But what's accurate is.
Kevin Clancy
Well, you know what the thing is, the worst part about Ed Sheeran is his hair. And that's where you are not alike. So that's kind of like. Yeah, all right. I'm Ed Sheeran with a great head of hair. That's a big difference. That's like Ed Sheeran goes up, like, five points if he has your hair.
John Feidelberg
It's a big difference. But it's not like I'm Jason Statham with a head of hair.
Kevin Clancy
True.
John Feidelberg
There's still better people, guys with heads of hair that would be better to look like.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, there's still. Is. He's still a hobbit.
Jackie
I can see him not smelling great, too.
Kevin Clancy
Oh, he looks like he stanks. He's so rich. That he's, you know, probably smells delicious, but he looks like he stinks.
John Feidelberg
He's also the fucking man. I'm the best. I froze. I got the pressure of Netflix cameras on me. I froze when it came to Ed Sheeran time. But I'm a. I'm a big sheer in head.
Jackie
So then I also take back my smelling bad comment. I feel like he smells great.
Kevin Clancy
No, no, he. Listen, stop lying. He's not gonna watch.
Jackie
Okay.
Kevin Clancy
He looks like he smells. He is the man. By the way, his albums, that. That album, number six collaborations, is the most underrated album of all time.
John Feidelberg
All his albums are great. Every time he drops an album, I go, I gotta stop. Because whenever people ask, like, you know, not that it's always happening, but people just go, oh, kind of music do you like? What kind of artist do you like? I never say Ed Sheeran. And I think that's a. That's a disservice and a disrespect.
Kevin Clancy
I don't think anybody does. I think that he. It sucks for him in a way. It's kind of cool because he's. He's a megastar without being like. I don't think there are people online hating on him the way they, like, hate on Taylor Swift.
John Feidelberg
Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
So in that regard, it's good. But it's like he is a. He has as many hits as anybody. I watched the video of him, of Benny Blanco Blanco. Benny Blanco talking about how him and Ed Sheeran wrote Bieber's Love Yourself. And it was like kind of an accident. They just stumbled into it and. And Ed Sheeran was like, I. I have this ex, but I don't want to write a song to give her satisfaction. And Betty Blanco was like, that's the song. Do that. And then they just riffed and it was done like 10 minutes later. And they had this Bieber, and it's like, it was awesome. It was so cool to watch the way they. That it goes down like that. I was like, oh, man, that is. That's a great. That's movie magic.
Jackie
Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
Probably made it up.
Jackie
Have you. Justin Bieber doing, like the symphony or.
Kevin Clancy
Whatever where he's conducting.
Jackie
Yeah, he's conducting.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah.
Jackie
I was like, wow, Respect earned. You're talented.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah. No, he's the man. Those guys are all awesome. They're all so cool.
John Feidelberg
The. There was. There was a time. It was. It was game six, game seven, maybe, I think seven of the second round of the NHL playoffs. Bruins were playing the Islanders. I'm at the game last. Last Game at the Coliseum, I believe, on Long Island. And it was me, Stu finer, Frankie Borelli, Mr. Borelli, Marina. I think that was it. And the. The Coliseum, if you don't know if you haven't been. Has the. Or had the worst bathroom situation in the world.
Kevin Clancy
In the world.
John Feidelberg
Like, you couldn't. You had to miss a whole period to go to the bathroom. And I. I think there were two bathrooms, like, in the whole arena, obviously more toilets, but I think they were literally or at least on the main concourse. And I go out to go to the bathroom for. For. In between periods. Long, long, long line. And I'm standing in line and like, a good amount of stoolies are coming up and taking pictures with me and all that good stuff. And finally the guy in front of me just snaps and he just turns around. He just goes, who the are you? Ed Sheeran? Come on, man. I mean, see, that was it. I just did it again. I just did it again without even thinking. I disrespected Ed Sheeran and I'm done with it. That's it. That's the last time. So. Last time I disrespected.
Kevin Clancy
I mean, I don't know. I don't think we can give all the details, but Caleb and. And Glennie did Sunday conversation with him, and they had a night with him. And, like, the details of that night out are exactly what you would want if you went out with, like, your celebrity hero. He's like. He's the opposite of never meet your heroes. If you get the chance to meet Ed Sheeran and party with him, do it.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, that's good advice for everybody.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, like, there's a bunch of people out there turning it.
John Feidelberg
Sharon ever wants to throw a couple back, you should. Should do it now.
Jackie
I'm, like, disappointed that we just have his, like, his, like, double game.
Kevin Clancy
By the way. By the way, while we're talking about celebrities, here's a billion dollar idea. Netflix, if you're listening every other show, Traders and. And. And Apprentice and all that, they all do celebrity versions of their show. Celebrity love is blind. I guess you.
John Feidelberg
You.
Kevin Clancy
You'd have to, like, change their voices too, because you would know who their voices are. But if you got to watch two celebrities talking to each other and not realize who they were, and they might fall in love, all of a sudden, the thing goes up and it's like, justin Bieber's gonna marry blah, blah, blah. That'd be insane.
Jackie
Wait. Brilliant.
Kevin Clancy
Brilliant. Right?
Jackie
Well, you're covering your mic. Sorry. Thank you.
John Feidelberg
Come on, Jack. By the way, you said, if you're listening, there's like a hundred people listening. I've been so stressed this whole time.
Kevin Clancy
I think, no, I've totally lost, like, I'm. I'm. I'm, like, disconnected from reality in this pod. As far as I'm concerned, it's just the three of us falling in love. Maybe we'll be a throuple.
John Feidelberg
Who knows?
Kevin Clancy
While. While we are talking about love, Jackie's future husband, thrift shop guy.
Jackie
I don't want to talk about it.
Kevin Clancy
Well, too late. I got. I gotta be honest. I think Pavs really did Jackie dirty on this one.
Jackie
I don't trust the way the Pavs asked.
Kevin Clancy
Well, I don't think he should have, so. Okay. For people who don't know, Jackie went to this thrift store guy who works the counter. Apparently gorgeous.
Jackie
Gorgeous.
John Feidelberg
Jackie also bought a great, great jacket.
Kevin Clancy
All time great jacket. There is no better purchase than a good jacket.
John Feidelberg
It reminds me of there. There was like, a time, like, a couple months ago, I was walking down the street and a guy had on, like, the perfectly worn leather jacket. Like, you could tell it's probably 20, 30 years old. And I genuinely considered just be like, yo, can I buy that?
Kevin Clancy
And that's like, when Dave bought his blue. Blue suede jacket, I was like, can I? Like, I need that. I'm going to take it from you. Five grand. That's why. I mean, there's. There's a Seinfeld episode about it. It's like a jacket is a. Is a life changer.
John Feidelberg
Yeah.
Jackie
Here's the thing, though, is, here's what I'm realizing is for some reason, whenever I picture, like, my cool older self, I'm wearing, like, a cool, like, slouchy leather jacket. Like, cool jeans, whatever. So I'm realizing now that the interaction wasn't about the hot guy, because I was so swept up in the hot guy that I didn't realize I had bought my dream jacket to become my dream person.
Kevin Clancy
Oh, wow.
Jackie
So it wasn't even about him. He was just, you know, you just.
John Feidelberg
Happened to be back.
Kevin Clancy
Okay. He just happened to be back. The fact that you subsequently went back and then stalked him from a distance a couple other times and talked about it in a podcast has nothing to do with him?
Jackie
No. Okay. First of all, to be clear, I would sometimes peer in the window to see if he was there, but it wasn't, like, stalking him. I would just.
Kevin Clancy
And I. Dude, peering in a window is the definition of stalking.
John Feidelberg
I. I think if you're Gonna say, like, I was not stalking someone. As your lawyer, I would advise you.
Jackie
To drop the word peering.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, the only thing worse than peering is leering. Those are the telltale signs you're stalking.
Jackie
Okay, that street. I have to pass that street. Anyways, so is it illegal to look in a window that he might be in?
John Feidelberg
Yeah, you.
Kevin Clancy
It's not illegal. You're just a creep.
Jackie
Okay, well, whatever. Turns out, I could have sworn that he was flirting with me. Now, looking back on it, he just wanted to sell me the jacket.
Kevin Clancy
Well, so, Pat, so you got the announcement.
John Feidelberg
You got. Was you got. You got reversed. That happens to men all the time, Right? Like, this waitress loves me. This bartender.
Kevin Clancy
Yes.
John Feidelberg
This stripper. Yes.
Jackie
Yeah.
John Feidelberg
No, they don't.
Kevin Clancy
Welcome to our life.
Jackie
Damn.
Kevin Clancy
But what are the chances that Jackie finds this guy?
Jackie
Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
Falls in love with him. All of a sudden, Pavs, his buddies, who are this up and coming band, are shooting a music video there. RC Drive, right?
John Feidelberg
Yes.
Kevin Clancy
Like, Pav's childhood friends, they're about to, like, truly, genuinely blow up, which is awesome, by the way. And they. They're like, we're gonna shoot a music video. We need to shoot at a thrift shop. And they pick this one. And Pavs is on set with this guy for like, eight hours. And so right there. That's crazy. It's just like, wow, what a small world. We live in a simulation. What are the chances? Pavs goes up to him and is like, hey, how about that girl who's been buying those jackets? You know? And he's like, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
Jackie
To be clear, I had told Pabs. I was like, hey, if you could casually.
Kevin Clancy
Oh, oh, okay. That's different, I thought, because if he just did that on his own, I think that's a little bit.
Jackie
No, no, no, no, no. I. I had been. But I didn't actually think he was, because I was like, there was no natural way to do that. But I wanted to see. I was like, ob, my God, maybe this is the world bringing us together. Turns out, it's not the guy. So then you can continue.
Kevin Clancy
Well, I just never have seen somebody cope harder than when Jackie was like, here's the thing. Here's the thing. Pabs said to him, it's the girl who bought two jackets, but I've only bought one jacket. So I think that's why he was confused and didn't remember me. And I was like, okay, baby. That's why he didn't remember you, Pads.
John Feidelberg
You should have gone with any hotties been in here in the last week.
Jackie
Also, to be clear, I've been looking pretty gross every time I've seen him.
Kevin Clancy
Anybody? Any, like, Shailene Woodley types who, like, wear meat sweatshirts and so. Okay.
Jackie
I don't even think that we explained it. So basically, Pav said, hey, like, I think my friend Jackie was actually here. She, like, bought, like, two leather jackets or whatever. Again, two leather jackets. I only bought one. So that's where probably he got confused and he said, no, I have no idea what you're talking about. So either he's lying and he just wants to keep me all. You know, he just.
Kevin Clancy
Oh, he's playing hard to get.
Jackie
Yeah. Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
Okay.
Jackie
Like, he, you know, he wants me to come in. He doesn't. He doesn't want to talk to, like, my. You know, to Pabs about me. He wants me to come in.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, no, he's. He's seeing such an easy street.
Jackie
Yep.
John Feidelberg
To link up that he's avoiding it. He's like, that would make Finding My Love.
Jackie
He wants me to lurk in that window.
Kevin Clancy
Maybe you're like the lurker.
John Feidelberg
You're watching Jackie just slowly descend into, like, she's. He's playing hard to get. I just gotta keep stalking him a little bit.
Jackie
Yeah, yeah.
Kevin Clancy
You know how, like, girls always have nicknames for the guys they're talking to? You might be like the lurker. He's like, oh, lurker's back. See her in the window? Yeah, there she is.
Jackie
I was just gonna say it's whatever the opposite of Love is Blind is me just staring in the window.
John Feidelberg
He is the opposite of a Matt Lauer button. He just hits under his desk to unlock it. He's like a big clothes sign falls on the door.
Jackie
Okay, I don't like this picture that we're taking.
Kevin Clancy
All right. The second biggest storyline in the early episodes of Of Love is Blind is this guy David. Now, David is. He's like a. He said he's in, like, Botox and like, lip filler industry. But he's not a doctor because he would have just said, I'm a doctor. So he works like, you know, he's probably like a secretary in one of these offices. Right? Anyway, he's talking about how he's so shallow and he's used to hot chicks and he's getting to know this one girl. And I swear to God, the only thing this guy can talk about is his goddamn sister. I think this guy might be sleeping with his sister. And if he's not, I think he wants to. I mean, he. He has dropped his sister at least a dozen times in the first few episodes. I can't even imagine. I can't believe that this girl hasn't been like, yo, shut the up about your sister. This guy is a sister banger, and he doesn't even realize it, man. So tune in to David. He's supposed to be your. He was supposed to be your stereotypical villain. But you will see in the later episodes, since I got a couple of advanced screenings, that David, if you're watching, actually ends up being the further furthest thing from a villain. He is involved in a much more sympathetic situation than. Than you would realize. So I actually don't think he's the bad guy in this case. I think he's kind of the sympathetic figure. It's definitely a dicey predicament for someone in a reality TV show. Dating. I don't want to spoil it for you guys, but if you're in a dating show and this happens to you, you would definitely be like, what the. How am I supposed to handle this? So if you. If you've already watched those first six episodes, definitely tune in for more, because things get precarious with David and Lauren. Tune in on Netflix. Season 8 of Love is Blind. Out. Now, listen, whether you found your lover through a reality TV show where you're not allowed to see them and you're talking through a wall, or maybe you're cozied up next to your man or woman while you watch season eight of Love is Blind.

John Feidelberg
This is a production note. 30 minutes.
Jackie
Oh, okay.
Kevin Clancy
Okay, producer, let's get to the real. Let's get to the real story. We get into LA. We're here for, like, basically 36 hours. We land yesterday. We're doing this today. And in the meantime, we decide we're gonna go out see our buddy Steve Fury, very funny comedian. He's going up at the store.
John Feidelberg
Improv.
Kevin Clancy
Or the improv. Sorry, at the improv. And we're like, all right, let's. Let's. Let's go see Steve. So we go out early for a beer, and then we're gonna go see his set. Feidalberg gets a text from another one of our buddies who's a comic, Michael Turner, who's doing a. A don't tell comedy. Pop up at a CrossFit gym, like one of these, like, you know, alternative spots. They rent it out. They set up the chairs. Byob and you go. You go see A night of comedy. Turner texts Feidelberg and he's like, I got. I got some time on stage if you want it. Like, if you want to come do a set. And Feidelberg, no hesitation. He's like, I'm in. Let's do it.
John Feidelberg
There was so much hesitation.
Kevin Clancy
There was so.
John Feidelberg
I was so much hesitation.
Kevin Clancy
There was so much hesitation. I was gonna throw your bone. He was. He was back and forth. John went to the bathroom. I say to Jackie and Pabs, I was like, I don't think we should go. Like, I don't think he wants us there. But I think if we ask, do you want us to come? He won't tell us no. He'll say yes, but he doesn't mean it. So I think I'm just going to leave, but I don't want to feel like I'm not supporting. I'm overthinking it. He's overthinking it. We're all he. Eventually he's like, it, I'll do it.
John Feidelberg
Which I think because I forgot my notebook.
Kevin Clancy
Well, that, I mean, that's the problem you have. If you're your notebook everywhere you go, you have your notebook.
John Feidelberg
In my pocket. On Love is Blind set. Didn't have it in my pocket last night. I was walking out of the hotel, I was downstairs in the lobby. I got down a little early and I was like, I felt my pockets, did like the pocket tap. And I was like, I forgot my notebook. And then I caught myself and was like, hey, John, why don't you fucking relax? No one's gonna be begging you to get on stage tonight. And that's the only time I've ever needed the notebook in my entire life. I've had it with me for five years. That was the only time I ever needed it.
Kevin Clancy
I mean, kind of the perfect story though, because it was like, time to man up, nut up.
Jackie
Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
And so not only does he agree to go, which already I give him props for because it's so easy to say no to everything in life, you know, like, that's not going to make or break your career. We're all having a beer, hanging out with Stevie. So, like, you know, it could have just been a chill night. But you, you know, you've always been like a say yes guy. So you say yes and you do it, which is already impressive enough. Then we, we hop in an Uber, we go over there, we walk into this CrossFit gym and they give him, I'm not kidding you, 60 seconds notice, Turner comes over and goes, can you believe this guy? I told him he could go up on stage and he said no. And he was like, no, I said, yes, I'll do it. And he goes, oh, you did? Okay, all right, you're going up right now. Literally as John said, I said I would do it. The girl who's up there is like, all right, that's my time. Thank you so much. And John, they, you know, yell to the host like, john Feidelberg's coming up next. And my man rolled up there, zero hesitation, zero nerves, did eight and a half minutes of real fucking stand up comedy, dude.
Jackie
It was, it's like he like transformed. Like, it was like just, just John. And then it was crazy.
Kevin Clancy
It was great, dude. I, I, I hesitate to even say I was like, I'm so proud of John. And I, I don't even want to say proud, because there's, it just feels, it's like, I don't know, I said about like my kids. You're not like, you know what? I'm essentially, I'm just like so happy that you're doing it. But like this whole time that you've been doing stand up and it's been very, you know, very brief so far, but just the fact that you chose to do it are doing it for real. I was like, that's so good that, you know, he's like spreading his wings and doing something new and expanding and just like I said, like, saying yes is awesome. Last night though, that was the first time I was ever like, oh, wait a minute, this guy's a stand up comedian. Like there. I think there is, I'm not just saying this. There is like every chance that you have a stand up career and, and not that I doubted that, but though that material last night, on a whim, no book, no prep, the, the, the, the jokes, the, the punchlines, the, the way you delivered it, all of it, I was like, oh, if any of our friends who are like lifelong comics did an 8 to 10 minute set that was like that, it got as many laughs as those guys do. You, the delivery was on point. The punchline that you use to close your set in la, that was a fucking killer. I was even like, jaw on the floor, man. Like, jaw on the floor. I've been on stage with you before, but like, it's, it's never felt like that. I know you're probably gonna downplay this, but that was so impressive, dude.
Jackie
I thought this sucks for you because now, like, you realize it's kind of like what I say about singing the blues, like realizing that you're good at the blues. Like now you've come too far. Now you realize you're actually good about this and now you have to like, like chase a whole career.
Kevin Clancy
That kind of sucks, John.
Jackie
Such a long road ahead of you, but like, you can't turn back now.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, that sucks.
Jackie
You, like, are actually a natural, so I don't know.
Kevin Clancy
That sucks too, bro. You, you just put so much more work on your plate.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, it's fun. I like it. It's fun. I enjoy doing it on Pabs and I.
Jackie
That's a lot of work on our plate. Like scheduling wise, getting like this is, this is for all of us. This sucks.
John Feidelberg
He fucked up, he fucked up our.
Kevin Clancy
Lives a little bit. Well, Jackie, you know what Jon really fucked up is his financial situation, his bank account Is, is, this is, this is quite the adventure for you financially, John.
John Feidelberg
Oh yeah, well, yeah, yeah, no, I'm losing a lot.
Kevin Clancy
This is so fucking funny. I love this. This angle is unbelievable, Jackie, because I.
John Feidelberg
I, I'm, I'm very new to this, this. So when I do shows I'm, I'm paid as an opener. Yeah. Which is like 100 bucks. I don't like traveling like an opener anymore, so. So, dude, I, when I did shows in Austin, I think I, I think I ended up losing six grand that weekend.
Jackie
Because you did first class.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, you fly.
Kevin Clancy
First class stayed.
John Feidelberg
I was like, I'm not, I'm not.
Jackie
Like, look, when Paul, Paul Brown.
John Feidelberg
Most people when they're again, not that like at that stage of like, yeah, I'm gonna try this out and do some opening. Like you're 21, you're excited to like pack into the back of a Camry and share a room at a Holiday Inn. I'm not doing that shit. So I, if I decide to try this, I could very well end up bankrupt like pretty quickly.
Kevin Clancy
The only man to have like a successful stand up career and lose money in this era, which is so fitting.
John Feidelberg
I mean that would be perfect.
Kevin Clancy
You know, just add it to the list.
Jackie
Well, good thing out of Ordo is making so much money.
John Feidelberg
Yeah. I am having the most fun I've had in my career in a long time. I am also spiraling into death, hemorrhaging money. Like I am, I am the iceberg. I have the Titanic. I have hit the iceberg and we are just leaking.
Kevin Clancy
Did you feel good though? Like, like I thought that was so. I remember as you walked off, I was like, that was so good that even Feidelberg who is gonna talk badly about himself and downplay himself always self deprecating humor, all that even he's gonna be like, that felt, that felt good.
John Feidelberg
I will be 100 honest with you. I think that was one of my worst shows.
Kevin Clancy
No way.
John Feidelberg
I, you know, I, I, I'm in the room, I, I heard people laughing, all that stuff. But just like from my own self, like I know I missed a few lines. I know I flubbed a few lines.
Kevin Clancy
Well, bro, if that's your bad work, I, I said to, we were out with this guy from wme, Nate, and I was like, I don't know either. Either people have been lying about how hard stand up comedy is or my boy is a prodigy because he just stepped up and did it no problem. And I mean of course, course I don't want to Oversell it too much. I'm not saying you're up there, you know, Shane Gillis style or anything, but for someone who's only done it five, six times, the. Just the, like, the comfort level and the. The laughs you were getting and, like, the execution. You know what I love the most, too, is, like, I've heard you do some of that material. So it was like, you know, work stuff that you've worked on, but, like, you worked in stuff that we just saw and talked about walking into. The. Like, you were. You were. You were confident enough to just, like, throw some new material in there, all with no notice. I don't know, man. I. You should be. I think you should be feeling good.
John Feidelberg
No, no, I. I don't. Again, I'm not trying to, like, play, like, the. Oh, try little. Like, I thought it went well, but I do think it was one of my worst shows. But it was, like, it was fun to do. It was a rush. It was all that stuff. Like, when we left, actually, we got in the car and we left, and we. We were driving, like, a half hour back to the improv, and, like, I felt the blood in my legs stop tingling, you know? I mean, like. And it was like, that was the end of it. And I was like, that was a good high for a minute there. Like.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, but that's also probably why you didn't. Like, I don't think you realized the laughs and what was going on. I think you were probably just, like, working on adrenaline and just going. But, yeah, because I was nervous, as you know, I was like, oh, no.
John Feidelberg
What have you done?
Kevin Clancy
What if, like, this is not the. The best setup to succeed?
John Feidelberg
But, like, I mean, I. I think. I don't know if it's because I'm older now or whatever, but, like, I don't. I don't not get nervous, but I don't get nervous either, because I'm like, what's the worst that happens? They don't think it's funny. Okay.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, well, that's where we were born in the darkness, bro. Molded by it. These. These guys only adopted the darkness. We've been getting hate on the Internet for 20 years, man.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, we were saying that before where, like, you know, a lot of comedians are like, well, bombing is tough. And. And, like, like, not, like, not. Not that they're saying it's tough as in, like, it. Well, I guess they are, but they're saying, like, you know, it's different on the Internet versus in person. And I agree. I think it's Much worse on the Internet.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah. Like, in person, there's far less people. It ends and you go home and maybe you think about it, the Internet, it's like 10x the amount of people. More than that. Like 100x the amount of people. And they constantly barrage the barrage for like 48 hours of hate.
John Feidelberg
It's in your pocket at all times. Every time you open it, you see it.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah.
John Feidelberg
That's like, I don't know. I'm going to this room, I'm gonna try and be funny. If they don't think it's funny, I. It's also like, I've said it before. I'm like, I've heard other people laugh at it. So unless this room is a bunch of weirdos, they're probably gonna laugh at it too.
Jackie
I do not have this mindset. I do not do well with. With just like any kind of projection or. You know what I mean? Like, I would not have that in me.
John Feidelberg
I think.
Kevin Clancy
No, I wouldn't, dude. I used to. I. I still, like. We were to do podcasts. I always got nervous on stage. I was shaking and sweating. And that was something we did like a million times before. And I had you as a safety net and voicemails and all this material to get through it. If I was just up there solo dolo with a mic right now, I would be. I don't know how you do it, man. I'm very proud of you.
John Feidelberg
Thank you very much. I'm so happy this is happening through a wall.
Kevin Clancy
I'll be honest, I'm kind of liking this whole vibe. We might not. We might have to put up a wall in the studio.
John Feidelberg
Yeah. Do you guys have this whole thing copywritten? I imagine you do, but if you can't have a copyright on walls, I don't know if that's the proper legal term. Patented, maybe something along those lines. They probably do.
Kevin Clancy
By the way, what am I think favorite little tidbits resurfacing again right now because of the Chiefs. How Pat Riley has a patent on the word three Pete.
John Feidelberg
Really?
Kevin Clancy
One of the all time best business moves ever. He patented it back when the Bulls were first doing their first three Pete. And so theoretically, I don't know how this actually works, but I'm pretty sure, you know, every. Every piece of merch that says 3 Pete and all that sort of shit, there's money going in Pat Riley's pocket. I think they said, like, there's going to be like billions of dollars worth of merch sold. And you know, he stands to make like a hundred million if like, you know, XYZ amount of it says 3.
John Feidelberg
Pete still not giving Jimmy Butler that contract to, to finish off last night. After the show, we went back to the improv, saw Steve Fury murder, saw a few other comedians murder. Then we saw Kirk Fox, bro, Who religious experience, put on a show unlike anything I've ever seen.
Kevin Clancy
Truly, though.
John Feidelberg
Truly.
Kevin Clancy
Like, that's not an exaggeration.
John Feidelberg
It was the funniest thing. I mean, we were in. I, at times I thought we were being rude in a comedy club, and the rudeness was stemming from us laughing too much and too loudly, which is weird that that even crossed my mind.
Jackie
Weird about it.
John Feidelberg
But I was like, yeah, I started to do that.
Kevin Clancy
She had a little bit of the dragon noise was coming.
John Feidelberg
A little bit was coming out. Dude, he is. I, I, I, I, I know Kirk's work from Parks and Rec, from jury duty. There's plenty of other things, but I'd never seen him do any kind of standup at all before. That was so funny. It was insane. And that's a nice, like, like, you know, you're like, oh, great job doing a set, John. And then you go watch that and you're like, this is well, right?
Kevin Clancy
I, yeah, I guess so. I mean, that's where his was like, there's levels, man.
Jackie
Yeah, but in his. I just like, haven't really seen that in stand up comedy that much. I feel like it's like punchline, punchline. But his is just like drawn out. Like, keep hitting it, keep it, draw it out, draw it out, draw it out. Which makes it so funny. And like, it, like, it's, it was so funny because you were just like, how is he still going?
Kevin Clancy
Still going every time. It's, it's very hard to describe. And I bet if you even watched this set on like YouTube or on your TV, you'd be like, all right, whatever. But in person, it was so unique and so weird. I was so, I was so impressed by that.
John Feidelberg
I was like, I think what you just said is so important. And I think if I can give myself a little credit, I say it a lot. You gotta be in the room.
Kevin Clancy
Got it.
John Feidelberg
And not, not that I, I haven't watched Kirk off out of the room, so I don't know for sure. But in that room, the tension that there was, was so, it made everything so, bro.
Kevin Clancy
When he was talking about the amount of footage of rope you need to tie up seven people in Colombia, like, like, it's just, you know, there's so Many funny comedians who do, like, great observational humor, and it's like, who can make the best joke about the thing going on in the news today? And that's like 90% of most comics, you know? And then there's a guy who is just like, I don't even know where your brain comes from, bro. You are not a fucking human. You are from outer space.
John Feidelberg
We talked to him for, like, 20 minutes after the show, and then we get in the Uber afterwards, and you guys are like, what. What do you have to say? And I was like, I don't know. I don't know if I even just talked to Kirk Fox. Like, I think. I can't. It's like, if you're listening to this, you obviously are aware of KB and Nick, like, even more Nick. Nick, I think, is a little more normal. Kb. It gets. Actually, both of them nowadays, I don't think of as this, but when they first came on the scene, when you first were talking to them at barstool, you're like, are these guys with me? Are they.
Kevin Clancy
Yes.
John Feidelberg
Are they running game on me? Like, what is happening? And that's how it was. Talking to Kirk for, like, 20 minutes. Just. I was like, I. Because he was just being so nice and so genuine, but also I was like, but there's no way he's being this nice and this genuine. It was a. It was a very weak, like, awesome, but experience where I was like, he gave me his phone number. I'm.
Kevin Clancy
I'm still.
John Feidelberg
I'm still.
Kevin Clancy
This was the crate. Jackie, how crazy was this?
Jackie
What?
Kevin Clancy
One of the weirdest things Jon has ever done. He was just convinced that Kirk Fox gave him a fake phone number.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, I still am. I haven't texted him yet, but I'm gonna text him after the show.
Kevin Clancy
Why would someone do that? I don't know.
John Feidelberg
I don't know. Maybe it's because I'd just seen his comedy, and now I'm like, there's no way he's talking to me. Why is he talking to me? And I still am. Like, I got Google. He gave me the phone number. And I got in the Uber and I googled 213 area code. It is Los Angeles, so that's a point number.
Jackie
You know what's so funny is this reminds me, there's, like, the biggest bag I ever fumbled was in college. There's this guy, and he, like, was funny in the sense where, like, he would just, like, whenever I was laughing at something, like, he would just draw it out, draw it out. Draw it out and be like crying tears. Like he was literally like so funny to me and he was like obsessed with me. Like he was locked in on me and he was like hot and everything. But I couldn't figure out why he liked me. I was like, what the fuck is. Like, why is he choosing me?
Kevin Clancy
What's wrong with you two?
John Feidelberg
What?
Kevin Clancy
What's wrong with you two?
Jackie
I know, I know. I was like, why would he like me over my friends? Which is so sad to say. And so I'm a completely self salvage.
Kevin Clancy
I mean, like old pepperoni dips, right?
Jackie
No more pepperoni. I don't pepperoni nips anymore for the Netflix teen that's listening.
John Feidelberg
I would still like to be on this show.
Jackie
Yeah, to be clear, very no normal nip snow. But what was I gonna say? But anyways, my friends were like, get it fucking together. He likes you now. Like, I couldn't get it together. I just kept self sabotaging it. Now he's dating this really beautiful girl. They're definitely getting married. And.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, you blew it. You could have had, you know, a Kirk Fox in your life.
Jackie
I know. Anyway, so we both. We both blew.
John Feidelberg
We both dropped it.
Jackie
Yeah.
John Feidelberg
Now we're stuck with Kevin on the other side of this podcast.
Kevin Clancy
Well, listen, we have.
Jackie
I talked to Jackie, but I talked.
Kevin Clancy
To Jackie about this the other day, and as long as she's still game, I think we're going to do our own little version with Jackie. A little Love is Blind action. I want the Netflix people to do it. I would love to put you in the real pods, but if not, I think we got to have some. Some suitors come through barstool and. And you have to like, talk to them blind. Maybe you'll find your love that way.
Jackie
I don't trust you guys, though. I feel like you're just gonna put.
Kevin Clancy
Like, would we ever steer you wrong?
Jackie
I know, I know. That was the thing. I heard that.
John Feidelberg
Yeah. No, we. We will. Oh, here's the deal. You'd have. You'd have some diamonds in the rough.
Kevin Clancy
But there'd be a lot of.
John Feidelberg
It'd be a lot of rough. It would be. What do they have it, like tpc Sawgrass or whatever they call it. The. I don't know, there's some golf person can. Is going screaming into their car right now. But they're one of the golf courses.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, I know what you're talking about.
John Feidelberg
Like the very long. Whatever. I botched that one.
Kevin Clancy
I think it's called the tall grass, bro.
John Feidelberg
No, but there's one particular course that has, like, really, really long.
Kevin Clancy
Well, you botched it. Yeah. You bought.
John Feidelberg
Yeah. No. And we don't have any service, so.
Kevin Clancy
I can't pull the rib cord. It's over. It's over. The reference is done.
John Feidelberg
No, that was. See, you couldn't see me. I was bringing up my phone so I could check the time. 10 minutes.
Kevin Clancy
10 minutes left. Perfect time. All right. The final scene in episode six of Love is Blind leaves you with a cliffhanger as we finish up the first batch of season eight. It is between Taylor and Daniel, where Taylor has this sneaking suspicion that Daniel has already followed her on Instagram prior to this whole season. So he's in the pods and he's, like, bringing up all these things they have in common, and he seems to know a lot about her, and there's all these crazy coincidences, and she said, as soon as the.
John Feidelberg
The.
Kevin Clancy
The thing lifted and I saw you, I had this pit in my stomach being like, I already know this guy. Which would be a crazy move to secretly know who is who you're talking to on Love is Blind and not reveal that and bring up all these things that. Oh, my God, I can't believe we have all this in common. It's like, yeah, well, that's because I stalked you already, and I knew it, and I'm bringing it up on purpose. That would be nuts. Now, this guy Daniel is very, like. He was not very convincing initially that he didn't follow her, but it gets. It certainly gets dicey in the. In the coming episodes. One of the weirder things we've ever seen on Love is Blind where they. They basically broke the fourth wall. Producers came out, they gave her back her phone. It gets absolutely wild. So check it out. Taylor versus Daniel. I want to know who you think is in the right and who's in the wrong on this one. It's the final scene of the first six episodes of this Love is Blind Season 8 to round out things before we go to the villas and bring them back to real life. So check it out. Season 8 of Love is Blind, available on Netflix now. Well, it's actually funny you brought up, like, not knowing, like. Like being real, acting real, and. And weird, because is. This is something I. I noticed when we checked in and then Pabs brought it up. I think hotel concierge people are the weirdest people on the planet Earth.
John Feidelberg
And I heard you guys talking about this. I don't know what you're talking, bro.
Kevin Clancy
They are so over the top, bizarre. And I don't know if it was maybe just this hotel, because pavs noticed it too. Like, you're just there to check in and be like, here. Here you go, man. Here's your key. You're on the seventh floor. Good. Cool. That's it. That's all that really needs to happen. And instead it was like, Mr. Clancy, here's your card. And they, like, presented to me like it was glass and it was gonna break. And they were like, now we have bottles of water. When you finish them, you can refill the water bottles. Do you have any questions for me? Here, I'm gonna need you to sign this. It's just everything is so.
John Feidelberg
All of those things are so normal.
Kevin Clancy
No, not. No, no, no, no.
John Feidelberg
You just described them handing your room key.
Kevin Clancy
That's what I love.
John Feidelberg
The waters that are free.
Kevin Clancy
It should be normal. It should just be like, here's your room key, man. But it's so effusive. And, like, you're just treating me like I'm like, the fucking king and queen of the world, and it's like, just give me the fucking key, man. Everything is. They have to get so sick of being that phony and. And. And, like, blah, blah, blah, everybody. I would hate that gig.
John Feidelberg
I. Oh, I wouldn't like it, but I. The way you guys are saying it makes me think it. It turns you off. And, like, I wouldn't say it turns me on, but it's just like, I.
Kevin Clancy
Hope not, you little creep.
John Feidelberg
You little fucking kinky fucker.
Jackie
It's like, if your kink is. I got a nut.
Kevin Clancy
If your kink is. Hotel concierge treating you nicely. You've got issues.
John Feidelberg
I'll be honest. Now that I'm getting older, my kink might be people treating me nicely. Like, I'm not, like, kind of kidding, but also not like someone just being nice to me.
Kevin Clancy
Well, Lord knows we don't get enough of that anywhere else. That and the other thing I've just got to get off my chest. I. I don't know if I can just put it on lift or if it's ride shares in general. If you say you're a XL car, you better be extra God damn large. Okay? It better be large and extra than that. Okay, we got it. We got an XL today that had two. It didn't even have a bench seat, so it had two people in the back seat. And then we fold down the other stuff to put our luggage in, and the guy goes, oh, well, this isn't gonna fit, man. And we're like, yeah, we know. That's why we got a fucking xl, dude. And he was like, well, you know, what are you gonna do? I was like, well, we're gonna have to get another car. That's what we're gonna goddamn do.
John Feidelberg
That, that was. It's particular. It can be frustrating, particularly when we're on the road, because we're. There's four of us, we're carrying bags and like that. We were on a tight schedule today. We had to be here by 11. We had the Uber on time, guy shows up three seats for us. It's like, what does the XL button do?
Jackie
Then we also. Can we talk about our Uber driver last night?
Kevin Clancy
Oh, yeah. We'd had such luck with our just a full blown drunk driving faced driver last night.
John Feidelberg
I get, I get drunk Uber drivers pretty often.
Jackie
Yeah.
Kevin Clancy
Like this guy, he, he, he thought roads that were completely open were closed. He was like, why is the GPS taking me this way? It's closed. It was just construction. He could have gone. He ends up doing a U turn, going through back roads, but slurring his.
John Feidelberg
Words the whole time.
Kevin Clancy
Slurring his words the whole time. Doing the full stop at stop signs, which we all know when you do.
John Feidelberg
The full stop is because, you know.
Kevin Clancy
We'Ve all been there before. Okay, but what, what did, what did. Fights. What did you say you were.
John Feidelberg
I was talking about talking to Kirk, right? And, and how like, he was so.
Kevin Clancy
Nice and I was opening up so much.
John Feidelberg
Very taken aback by that. And, and the guy just chimed in with like, I forget what he said, but it was like he put a vacuum into the car because just you.
Kevin Clancy
Said you were like, I don't know why Kirk was being so, like, polite and so like, talkative. He was just like telling me all this stuff. And the guy goes, I've been out here for a while, like driving like some famous people around. Some people just get off on like giving information. And maybe he was just like, he wanted to give information, bro. And the whole car was like, I'm.
John Feidelberg
Like, well, I don't even know what the fuck to say to that.
Kevin Clancy
It went so fucking dead quiet. I was like, shut up, drunky. Just get us home.
John Feidelberg
I was like the Uber driver I had in Austin who was so drunk, this woman who was just hammered. And I was in my own head, like, trying to, trying to talk myself down. Like, John, you're, you're being a little stereotypical about the Southern accent right now. She's not drunk. She's just a Southern woman. And, and then we get out of the cars with Nick. And Nick was like. I went with shit face. And I was like, all right. I thought so too. He goes, no, I don't think so. When you ran into the store, she just told me. She just told me she's been a brewer, Been at a brewery all day. And I was like, oh.
Jackie
All right, huddle up. It's me, Angel Reese. You can't beat the post game burger and fries, right? Know what else you can't beat? The Angel Reese Special. Let's break it down. My favorite barbecue sauce, American cheese, crispy bacon, pickles, onions, and a sesame seed bun, of course. And don't forget the fries and the drink. It's gonna be a high C for me. Sound good? All you have to do to get it is beat me in a one on one. I'm just playing get the Angel Reese Special at McDonald's now. Ba da ba ba ba.
Kevin Clancy
I participate in restaurants for a limited time. We got a couple minutes left here, so we'll wrap up with. I hesitate. I don't want to be a prisoner of the moment and recency bias or whatever. I think that the Luka Doncha Trade was a where were you when? Moment. I think I will never forget that moment.
John Feidelberg
I am going to agree with you. I think I'm just going to agree with you.
Kevin Clancy
I think so. I think so. I don't. I don't. It doesn't have the same implications as some other sports moments because it was just like, I don't know, these two teams will move on and we'll see what happens. But it was so ridiculous. I had. I had just had opened my phone, literally as the tweet went up. I remember seeing, like, it said like seven seconds when the tweet had gone up. And I said, that's not real. That's like, that's fake. And I thought it was a fake Shams account where, you know, you change the letter by one thing or whatever, and then the first reply was, shams got hacked. And it was so. And that's. Nobody's ever been hacked like that. It's not real. But I was like, that's what it must be. And I remember thinking to myself, that's a very bizarre thing to do is hack someone's phone and say that Luka Doncic has been traded for Anthony Davis on a first round pick and that. I mean, that's how ridiculous it was that I thought every other version, it's fake, it's hacked, whatever, before I arrived, that it's just a thing that actually happened.
John Feidelberg
I think I'm trying to think of, you know, so many sports moments you just remember because you're like, you're watching it or you're there. Like the. The. It's. It's like roster moves are the bigger ones. Like. Like, where were you then? Because, like, most of them, like, where were you? I was on the couch watching the fucking.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The fact that we're here, it's so unique, too.
John Feidelberg
Like, the. I would. I would have Kobe dying. 1.
Kevin Clancy
On the plane to the Super Bowl.
John Feidelberg
Playing the Super Bowl. Tell Everybody. Andrew Luck retiring. 2.
Kevin Clancy
Really?
John Feidelberg
I was also on a plane for that one. I was on a plane coming back from.
Kevin Clancy
Oh, I don't remember that at all.
John Feidelberg
It was. I believe it was week zero of the college football season. I was coming back from Orlando because I, like, went to. It was like one of those, like, remember when we used to travel around and do, like, Bud Light tailgates or whatever? I had gone to the Florida game for week zero, and I was on the flight back from that. And then. This might be 3.
Kevin Clancy
I have no recollection of Andrew Luck, but this is. This is way up there. This is. I mean, Jackie was, like, trying to keep up with it. And we. I mean, we. We must have looked so dramatic and ridiculous the way we were reacting.
Jackie
But then. But then the way that you guys described, I was like, oh, okay.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah. I said it would be like if Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds forget about the drama going on. If, like an it couple out of nowhere broke up. And then, you know, the girl started dating some, like, random jamoke that. And she was like, oh, my God, this is a big deal.
John Feidelberg
Yeah, The. The Blake Lively. I. I had something to say about them. The. The. The, like, gossip and people talking is one thing. Like, whatever. Obviously, we're all going to do that no matter what. Them releasing statements like, twice a week each. Crazy if that was like, if those were your friends. If you had, like, let's say Jackie and Kevin, you guys get in a fight. Kevin one day you come tell me about how. How it started. The next day, Jackie, you come telling me about this.
Jackie
Yeah, yeah.
John Feidelberg
I'd be like, okay, I'm getting the gist. The next day, Kevin, you come tell me again. And then Jackie comes, tells me again. The next day I go, hey, how about this? You two go sort it out and come back.
Jackie
Yeah, yeah.
John Feidelberg
Like, it's. If in any real, like, friendship, you wouldn't deal with that with your friends.
Jackie
No.
Kevin Clancy
Personally, why don't they just shut the hell up.
John Feidelberg
But no, again, like, you. You being invested is different. Like, they're mega celebrities. It's gossip.
Kevin Clancy
That makes sense.
John Feidelberg
Them releasing statements every day is insane.
Kevin Clancy
Well, I'll tell you what, dude. Baldoni's lawyer is the Terminator. That guy's scary. Yeah, he's not around. And they just put out. They just made a website, dude. They just dropped a website for this, which is crazy. It's called the lawsuit info.com and it has 168 pages of all of their text messages just proving how much Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds were like, you're the best. We love you. You're amazing. This is so great.
Jackie
It's all damning stuff, too. Like, I'm.
John Feidelberg
But then. Then in a week, Blake Lively.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, I know.
Jackie
I don't trust anything anymore.
Kevin Clancy
Yeah, but that's the thing. This is more. This is, like 25% legal, like, lawsuit, and 75% PR, and he is killing the PR game right now. Motherfuckers hate Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
Jackie
Now, I. I don't know what to think of it all.
Kevin Clancy
I mean, I hate Justin Baldoni with a passion, but I think there's very few people in the world who can just understand hating someone but thinking that they're in the right. Like, I don't like him. He's a sleazeball. But I think everything that's kind of come to light. People are talking about metadata, John. Proving that the text that the New York Times put in their website came months before the lawsuit. And the New York Times said, well, the only reason we had these texts was because it was public knowledge. So that's proving that the New York Times was colluding with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. I mean, this goes deep, dude. Candace Owens has made her whole career about this now, really, she's doing, like, videos daily, being like this, you know, attacking them. It's not what you want in your life. Even if it did happen, like, just call off. Call it off, because Candace Owens is now gonna fucking, you know, hunt you down the whole time.
Jackie
The court case isn't even until 2026, so there's no point in even, like, talking about it.
Kevin Clancy
Oh, wow.
Jackie
You know, court case is coming back, is the Idaho murders. I think that's just a heads up.
Kevin Clancy
We got a minute. Well, in that case, John ended. On that note, I'm a little nervous, but this is something I've wanted to do for a long time now, man. We've been together for a long time, and talking to you through the.
John Feidelberg
Through the wall.
Kevin Clancy
I really got to know who you are, and I'm just gonna. I'm down on one knee over here. John, will you.
John Feidelberg
I tried to make a surprise.
Jackie
Yeah, yeah, that was good.
Kevin Clancy
I'm thinking about that, John. Or. Or Jackie. One of you two will you marry?
Jackie
No, I get it. I'm full rejection for me. Clearly, you have your pick, so I'll go. Paga. First of all, I'm in, baby.
John Feidelberg
I'm in. I'm doing a cowabunga sign, which I think is really. When you propose to someone, that's what you're hoping to get back.
Kevin Clancy
I think they usually go, let's go.
John Feidelberg
Let's go, baby, let's go.
Kevin Clancy
Love is blind. Let's go.
Jackie
All right, well, I'll go myself.
Kevin Clancy
I'll go.
John Feidelberg
Kevin.
Kevin Clancy
I'm gonna put my shoes back on now. I did this whole thing barefoot, guys.
John Feidelberg
I did about half of it.
Kevin Clancy
It. Oh, cool. We all did that. I got cozy.
