You're listening to the Gas Digital Network.
Big J Okerson
Live from Rodney's in New York City, It's Story Wolf wars with the Story Warriors, Big J. Okerson and Louis J. Gomez.
Chris DiStefano
What's up, everybody? Welcome to Story Wars. We're your Story Warriors, Big J Okerson and Louis J. Gomez. Let's make some noise in this sold out Rocky comedy club.
Big J Okerson
Look at this. I can feel. I can feel the ghosts of Rodney Dangerfield looking down at us right now.
Chris DiStefano
Oh, I bet that'll come into play a lot tonight. How many people here, we always ask this are not familiar with Story Wars?
Big J Okerson
Not familiar. Don't raise your. You're at a comedy show, you retarded women.
Chris DiStefano
Louis, do not drive away the only women that have ever come to the show.
Big J Okerson
No. You know they're retarded. That was crazy.
Chris DiStefano
They were like, you girls aren't retarded. You're polite, but you have no idea what you came for tonight. You just got tickets to whatever said Fuck it Girls night.
Big J Okerson
They came for Chris D. Let's get real.
Chris DiStefano
Oh, shit. They definitely came for Chris D. I forgot he was here. How many people here are familiar with Story Wars?
Dan Soder
Oh, yeah.
Big J Okerson
Good.
Chris DiStefano
That feels good. That feels very good. Well, let's get our contestants up here and we'll get this game going. What do you say? Our first contestant, everybody, you know him and love him from the Sodor podcast. His special on the road you can watch right now on YouTube. He is my former work wife. How about it for the hilarious Dan Soder?
Dan Soder
Here to win it. Here to finally win. I want to see double points so bad.
Big J Okerson
Our second contestant on the show. Absolutely hilarious. You're gonna know him from history. Hyenas and his brand New special. It's just unfortunate. Available on Hulu. Clap it up for Chris DiStefano.
Louis J. Gomez
Come on.
Big J Okerson
Hello, Returning story Warrior. Yeah, we have an actual story warrior on the panel.
Chris DiStefano
A story where you won. And I believe Chris, if I'm not mistaken, was the first ever person besides you or I to win.
Dan Soder
Wow.
Louis J. Gomez
Yes, I was. I fooled you guys with a story about 9, 11.
Chris DiStefano
Just, just so you know, if you win tonight, you're only one win shy of me.
Tim Dillon
Yes.
Chris DiStefano
I'm not good at the game.
Big J Okerson
Jay's only won three times in the history of the show.
Chris DiStefano
Someone said four, but that didn't feel much better, right? Our final contestant, everybody. Last but not least, you know him from the Tim Dillon Show. And how about his new special, I'm youm Mother, available right now on Netflix. It's Tim Dillon.
Big J Okerson
What a panel.
Tim Dillon
Thank you.
Chris DiStefano
Hell of a panel.
Big J Okerson
Tim's excited to be here. He really is. It's the first time I've seen you be excited to do somebody else's podcast.
Tim Dillon
I'm practicing for the lying on the show.
Chris DiStefano
This is going to be a very fun one. If you're unfamiliar with story war is here or you're unfamiliar listening at home, it's a very simple game. Everybody on this panel, including Lewis and I, have submitted three to five stories on one particular subject. Tonight's topic, Louis.
Big J Okerson
Failure.
Chris DiStefano
Failure. Our lovely producer Alex will read those stories out one at a time randomly. Eight of them. They will appear on this screen. If it is your story, you're the only person who knows that it's your job to fool everybody else, that it's not your story. And if it's not your story, it's your job to guess whose story it is.
Big J Okerson
And for every person you fool, you get one point. Every time you guess the story correctly, you get two points. Once you write the name on the dry erase board. Put the dry erase board in this little holder right here and let your hand go. That is it. That is your final answer. You cannot change it. It's a lot of fun. And I'll tell you right now, we're not just playing for fun. Look, you guys are gonna have a great time tonight, but we're up here for more than fun. Jay, tell em what we're playing for tonight.
Chris DiStefano
We're always playing for a book from the Story of Wars Library. Tonight's book, a brand new copy of the Light within the Light. Portraits of Donald Hall, Richard Wilbur, Maxine Kohman and Stanley Kunitz by Gene Braham. One of my favorites, Gene Braham offers intimate portraits of four eminent American poets, Donald Hall, Richard Wilbur, Maxine Koomin and Stanley Kunitz, delving into their personal histories and the evolution of their poetic voices. Through in depth interviews and reflections, Bram reveals how each poet's life experiences shaped their work.
Dan Soder
Wow.
Big J Okerson
Can you believe it, boys?
Chris DiStefano
I can't. It's going to be a great one. Everybody. Are you ready for war? Let's get drafted then, Alex, if you will. Story number one.
Alex
Story number one. I failed my written test for my driver's license because I didn't study and just assumed everything on the test was common knowledge.
Dan Soder
This feels. Tim or Jay?
Chris DiStefano
I. Then I'm gonna say Tim, because I did feel right away like this seems like an aloof thing, but I would do this. First of all, I think I also did this.
Tim Dillon
I wish it was mine because I actually. I studied and I passed, which makes me a loser. So this does seem cooler, but I failed the driving test once in the actual car.
Big J Okerson
I. I passed my test.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Walked in. There was five questions.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Very easy. Pat. That was on my birthday.
Tim Dillon
Could this be your story? Like, is that.
Big J Okerson
Are you.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
You're in this, everybody.
Big J Okerson
We're all in it. I explain this to you outside, Tim. You saw.
Tim Dillon
But I didn't know if you were in it.
Big J Okerson
I didn't know. Jay just explained it again. He said, all five of us.
Chris DiStefano
And then I said in the thing. It's. It's written right into it. I say everybody on this panel, including Lewis and I. I even purchased. Have Lewis and I. To make it sound like, official.
Louis J. Gomez
Listen, I can understand. Unless Steve Bannon tells him.
Tim Dillon
That's right. I don't.
Louis J. Gomez
Listen, did Mr. Bannon give him the instructions or not?
Tim Dillon
You get a white nationalist to tell me something.
Big J Okerson
My 60th birthday was the written test. And then a week later, I took my driving test and I got. Because I was so ready to get out of my fucking house. And I passed. Both.
Dan Soder
Yeah. You keep insisting on telling us this story, which makes me feel like it's made up.
Chris DiStefano
I would love to tell you guys that a guy sent me a DM today of a Lewis cheat sheet that he said that I should use. And he gives things. He said he ran it through AI and has all your tells, but I don't remember any of.
Big J Okerson
What are my tells. I wish you knew them.
Dan Soder
That's why AI was created, to map Lewis's brain.
Chris DiStefano
I mean, this guy. This guy went in good.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
Let me see. I'll get it. Because this might.
Big J Okerson
I mean, I know Jay's tells. If Jay starts speaking really loudly and blaming everyone else over and over.
Chris DiStefano
He also tells me the things I do that give it away.
Louis J. Gomez
I'm gonna. It was Jay, because I feel like the man who would be most likely to fail a written test would be a man wearing fingerless gloves. It just feels.
Chris DiStefano
It was a computer. It was a computer test. It was like four buttons, like multiple choice. And I did fail at once.
Big J Okerson
Dan, did you pass your written test?
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Getting a license first time out.
Dan Soder
Yeah. Went down to the dmv. Nailed it.
Tim Dillon
Yeah, I don't know about that. I don't know about that at all. I think maybe he was in Colorado relaxing.
Dan Soder
There is no driving test in Colorado.
Tim Dillon
Smoking a little weed.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
Figuring that it's just gonna.
Dan Soder
I had to drive. My driving test was. I had to drive my driving instructor, who was also the football coach, just downtown so he could drop off some documents. I drove him back and he's like, you passed your test. I was like, thanks, Coach Cooper. This feels like a Jay story.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Yeah. I feel like Jay is now not paying attention to the show specifically because I know.
Chris DiStefano
I'm feeling I'm have to bail on this because.
Dan Soder
But I really looking for Terminator.
Louis J. Gomez
I think too, because every time it is one of Jay's stories, he gives a little smile. He does that. He can't hide it.
Chris DiStefano
I think it does say that. I do give him.
Big J Okerson
Jay's a horrific actor. One of the worst in the business.
Chris DiStefano
What a great smile.
Dan Soder
I just assume.
Big J Okerson
Right.
Dan Soder
And just assumed everything on the test was common.
Chris DiStefano
Got it.
Louis J. Gomez
Who would say, like who?
Tim Dillon
Common. Not like the. I wouldn't even use those words.
Dan Soder
Those words are too poor for Tim.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
If it was Tim, Tim would say, just assume everything on the test was known by these peasants.
Dan Soder
Yeah, I don't know.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah, I don't know. I still. I think it could be Louis.
Chris DiStefano
Frequent words and phrases Louis uses when lying 100%. Not me 95% of the time. Lying if used more than four times.
Louis J. Gomez
Okay.
Chris DiStefano
Never happens.
Big J Okerson
By the way, thank you for telling me my tells.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, right. 90% lying.
Big J Okerson
You should do this at the end of the show.
Chris DiStefano
No, you're not going to remember any of this shit.
Big J Okerson
I will 100% remember this stuff.
Chris DiStefano
One of my tells, it says excessive physical adjustment.
Big J Okerson
Yes. Jay starts moving around a lot. He starts pointing. It gets really loud.
Chris DiStefano
I'm sorry. Honestly, if I say that three times, 90% of the time I'm lying. Believe me, 85% of the time I'm lying. Trust me, 80% lying. I swear. 75%.
Big J Okerson
Can you send this to your girlfriend?
Dan Soder
Christine's in the back with a fucking knife. Just practicing.
Chris DiStefano
All of it's fake.
Tim Dillon
Louis, what was. Do you remember your written test?
Big J Okerson
Yeah, it was five questions. I. I took it on my 16th birthday.
Tim Dillon
Why was it five questions?
Big J Okerson
I have no idea. It was so easy because.
Tim Dillon
No, there is no written test. That's five questions.
Big J Okerson
I swear to God, it was five questions.
Dan Soder
Dude, they don't even have that at Chili's. About how the meal was. You rocket full of.
Tim Dillon
You have five questions.
Dan Soder
I remember the day it was raining.
Big J Okerson
I was. I was 16 years old. It was on my 16th birthday. I was.
Dan Soder
So who's number one on the charts?
Chris DiStefano
Strangely. Get serious.
Louis J. Gomez
What year were you? What year were you?
Big J Okerson
I was born 82, so it was 90. 98.
Louis J. Gomez
98. Number one on the charts.
Dan Soder
Backstory, boys.
Louis J. Gomez
I was going to say NSync. Tearing up my heart.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, maybe.
Louis J. Gomez
Who else is gay out there?
Big J Okerson
All right, I'm gonna start. I'm gonna start getting this voting going. I mean, I feel like Jay is completely disconnected because it's him.
Dan Soder
Jay's reading your chart.
Tim Dillon
Wait, do we all. Do we vote secretly?
Big J Okerson
No, you write it. You put it. We told you this twice, Tim.
Tim Dillon
No, I know.
Chris DiStefano
You write your answer on the board, and then when you put your board in the thing, it's your final answer.
Tim Dillon
Gotcha. Okay, I know. I'm just confirming it.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
Do you want to get deported? Dude, I would stop talking like that to Tim. J.D. man.
Dan Soder
Oh, my God.
Big J Okerson
You are.
Louis J. Gomez

Story.
Big J Okerson

Tim Dillon

Chris DiStefano
Lewis.
Big J Okerson
Okay.
Chris DiStefano
It's Lewis.
Tim Dillon
I'm going to say Lewis, please.
Chris DiStefano
It is Louis.
Dan Soder
I think no one's. I haven't heard Chris say much. Well, I think he thinks he's going under the radar.
Louis J. Gomez
It's not me.
Dan Soder
These Italians can be extra sneaky.
Chris DiStefano
Well, I feel.
Dan Soder
But I feel like I can smell your pasta sauce. It's Chris.
Chris DiStefano
This is a tough one, because I did not. I failed the written test, the computer thing. But I. But I also. I feel like. Didn't everybody not study the first time? And, like, you're like.
Tim Dillon
No one studied.
Louis J. Gomez
No, no.
Big J Okerson
Everyone up here passed their first test.
Chris DiStefano
I didn't.
Big J Okerson
This is your story. That's why I voted for you.
Louis J. Gomez
This is Big J.
Chris DiStefano
It's not Alex.
Big J Okerson
All of our Answers are in.
Chris DiStefano
Swear to God.
Alex
This story belongs to Louis J.
Tim Dillon
Go.
Big J Okerson
Son of a bitch.
Dan Soder
Every time he tricks me.
Tim Dillon
I knew it.
Louis J. Gomez
You knew it.
Tim Dillon
I fucking knew it. I knew it.
Big J Okerson
Don't even say this.
Tim Dillon
Damn it, I knew it.
Big J Okerson
I was being honest.
Dan Soder
Why do I have such a weak.
Big J Okerson
When I was 16, when I was sick.
Chris DiStefano
You hyper talk, AI.
Big J Okerson
When I was 16 years old, I did pass it. It was five questions. This is all true. Took my driver's. My actual driving test. A week later when I went to re get my license. When I was fucking 38, when I.
Dan Soder
Moved to Jersey, I was like, five questions.
Big J Okerson
I'm gonna have this easy peasy.
Dan Soder
I know all this shit.
Big J Okerson
I went in, it was 50 questions multiple choice.
Dan Soder
I had no dude, but I failed it.
Big J Okerson
By the eighth question, I had gotten every question wrong. Y. I didn't study anything.
Chris DiStefano
God fucking shot. Damn it. That felt really good.
Big J Okerson
It did. You got me, Jay.
Chris DiStefano
I got you dead to rights.
Dan Soder
You got me.
Chris DiStefano
You were pushing me too hard. Just like Hypertalk said. That's his tag.
Big J Okerson
Alex, where are our scores at?
Alex
On the scoreboard with two points each. Louis J. Gomez, Big J. Okerson, and Tim Dillon.
Louis J. Gomez
There you go.
Chris DiStefano
Oh, that feels good.
Big J Okerson
We got it. All right.
Chris DiStefano
Oh, the two sad handsomes in the middle. Boohoo.
Dan Soder
All right, quit throwing it at us.
Chris DiStefano

Go to yocratum.com home of the $60 kilo. All right, let's get back into it, Alex.
Big J Okerson
Story number two.
Alex
Story number two. My father fell down the stairs on the way to the hospital while my mother was giving birth to me and broke both of his legs.
Dan Soder
I thought These are. I thought these were dancing lyrics. This sounds like a Tim Dillon fucking.
Tim Dillon
By the way, I wish.
Dan Soder
I wish that was also. What it doesn't say is cable news was on in the back.
Tim Dillon
Yeah.
Dan Soder
My father and then Tim was created.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah. All that needed to say is at Islip Hospital in Long Island.
Tim Dillon
I don't.
Dan Soder
This is a. Yeah, that's called a Long island birth.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
That's what we call Nassau county birth.
Dan Soder
Oh, yeah. She got the old Nassau County. Dad broke both the legs as the baby came.
Louis J. Gomez
Then we went to an Islanders game.
Dan Soder
Yeah. You know what? They didn't even fucking set the legs. They just put Billy Joel and they reformed like, T1000.
Big J Okerson
I know it's not Dan because his father wasn't at the hospital when he was born.
Dan Soder
He's a happy hour.
Chris DiStefano
Neither was yours.
Dan Soder
Yeah, he was a happy.
Chris DiStefano
This is definitely Chris or Tim who had present fathers.
Louis J. Gomez
No, but there's this story saying that is the father wasn't there down the.
Tim Dillon
Stairs on the way to the hospital. I don't even know what that means. While my mother was giving birth to me. And broke, by the way.
Dan Soder
I didn't realize you were reading it. I thought you were just admitting it.
Tim Dillon
No, no, no.
Dan Soder
What are you doing?
Tim Dillon
No, no, no. But here's what I'm trying to understand. So the father isn't at the hospital.
Dan Soder
While the woman's nice. Two legs broken.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah. I mean, the guy.
Dan Soder
Or he fucking. Or he knuckles it there. And he deserves that world's greatest dad mug.
Tim Dillon
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
Or no. How about it could be Louis and Jay, because what if that's. The mother told them.
Tim Dillon
Louis, can you tell us when your dad was stabbed?
Big J Okerson
My dad was stabbed when I was four years old.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
I'm sorry to hear that.
Dan Soder
He might have been. So he might have murdered and.
Chris DiStefano
Well, did he.
Louis J. Gomez
Let me ask you this. Could he not run away because he had broken legs?
Dan Soder
Yeah, that's why.
Louis J. Gomez
Is that why he was killed?
Dan Soder
That's how he gives it up. He goes, no, his run is a little wobbly because of his legs.
Tim Dillon
Someone broke his legs. Someone.
Chris DiStefano
Three years.
Tim Dillon
Maybe it's Chris's dad, because he was some gambling dad, some Italian, and he lied to Chris. He's like, oh, I fell down the stairs. And Chris is like, did you, though?
Dan Soder
Yeah, that's what it is.
Louis J. Gomez
That's a story.
Dan Soder
My mother also. The jets didn't cover.
Tim Dillon
Yeah.
Dan Soder
I remember your birthday because the chest didn't cover. And.
Louis J. Gomez
My father's. He was there.
Big J Okerson
I feel like if this was Dan or Jay. I would have heard that.
Chris DiStefano
Was that happy hour?
Dan Soder
Yeah. You know where he was?
Big J Okerson
I. I would have heard this story. Dan, was your. Was your father in the hospital when you were born? No, he wasn't. He really wasn't. I was kidding.
Dan Soder
I'm not.
Big J Okerson
When I said that about you.
Chris DiStefano
Oh.
Louis J. Gomez
Your dad wasn't there, but if someone.
Chris DiStefano
Did, it was happy hour.
Dan Soder
What do you guys not understand about five dollar onion rings? He has shit in your ears.
Chris DiStefano
He said it eight times. He was at happy hour. It's one hour.
Dan Soder
Unlimited margaritas.
Tim Dillon
Jay, where was your dad kids forever when you were born?
Chris DiStefano
He may have been there. I don't know.
Tim Dillon
You don't know if your dad was there or not?
Chris DiStefano
I don't.
Big J Okerson
He has no memories from when he was zero.
Tim Dillon
Are there photos?
Chris DiStefano
He did hold me at least twice as a child. There's pictures of that. Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
Did he have cast on both his legs?
Chris DiStefano
To the best of my knowledge, he was two legs working.
Tim Dillon
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
Tim, I like everything you've been doing here, but I believe this is the kind of acting that got you into Joker 2 folly a dude.
Louis J. Gomez
Yes.
Tim Dillon
There's a lot of. There was a lot of talented people in that movie. There was a lot of talented people in that movie. A lot of them all vote for me. That's fine.
Big J Okerson
I think I might agree with J. I think this could be Tim. I saw the little smirk on him. It's Chris or Tim.
Tim Dillon
I'm saying Chris because this is the way Italians behave.
Big J Okerson
It is.
Dan Soder
It is.
Louis J. Gomez
I. I honestly.
Dan Soder
God damn it. You're right, Dylan.
Tim Dillon
It's the way Italians behave.
Louis J. Gomez
I think it's Louis.
Tim Dillon
I'm telling you right now.
Chris DiStefano
Ah.
Tim Dillon
I kind of family couldn't afford stairs. There's no way they afford.
Louis J. Gomez
Because I think it's something his mom told him.
Dan Soder
A shot?
Chris DiStefano
No, Lewis definitely lived in door to lawn.
Big J Okerson
I lived in a basement apartment. Chris or Tim? Chris or Tim? Chris or Tim. I feel like Chris just threw out any name.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, that's how I feel.
Big J Okerson
What's the reason why? I think it might be Chris here.
Dan Soder
Yeah. There's no confusion.
Big J Okerson
Chrissy, is this you?
Tim Dillon
No.
Louis J. Gomez
I told you. I feel like I thought it was Louis because I think you're so good at this.
Big J Okerson
Oh God. That smile is dreamy.
Chris DiStefano
I can't.
Big J Okerson
I have to believe him.
Dan Soder
Look away, Lewis.
Louis J. Gomez
You know me.
Chris DiStefano
Hold on.
Big J Okerson
Chris, is it you? Oh, I can.
Louis J. Gomez
It's obviously not. That would be funny if it was. You don't think I would have. You don't think you would have heard. I've told every story about my father. I don't have any more material.
Big J Okerson
That's it. My final vote is Tim Dillon. I saw Tim smirk. I feel like he was trying to hide something.
Dan Soder
Son of a bitch. I can't pull my back.
Big J Okerson
Here it is.
Chris DiStefano
Tim.
Big J Okerson
Don't answer. That's my instinct. Alex, all of our answers ran.
Alex
That story belongs to Chrissy D.
Chris DiStefano
Timmy.
Tim Dillon
Yes.
Louis J. Gomez
You're good.
Dan Soder
Yes, they're good. Can I tell you right now, you led me there?
Tim Dillon
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Dan Soder
Thank you.
Louis J. Gomez
Yes.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
Dude, that guy fell right down the stairs by my mother. My mother said I was born at 8:34am, August 26, 1940. So my dad came in like 8:05am bleeding from his knees. Just. They said my uncle called him and he, like, Woke up at 7am mom was in labor and he fell down the concrete steps of my house in Ridgewood and just in a cab. Two broken, full casts. Yeah, that's what he said. And then my mother moved me to the Amish country shortly after for our safety. That's true story.
Big J Okerson
Great story.
Chris DiStefano
Great story.
Big J Okerson
Alex, where are our points at?
Alex
All right on the scoreboard with two points each, Lewis J. Gomez, Big J Okerson, Dan Soder, and Chris distefano. And in the lead with four points, Tim Dillon.
Tim Dillon
It's early. Yeah, it's early, right?
Big J Okerson
Very early in the game.
Tim Dillon
It's early right now.
Big J Okerson
This is fun.
Chris DiStefano
Alex, Story number three.
Alex
Story number three. Before easy pass, I was driving with no cash and couldn't get the toll arm to raise. I caused a huge traffic jam and had to beg them to open it on the intercom while everyone was pulling.
Dan Soder
Well, I feel like Tim or Lewis.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
No, I'm gonna say Louis.
Louis J. Gomez
No, I'm gonna say not Lewis because he only got his license when he was 38.
Chris DiStefano
You're right.
Louis J. Gomez
They didn't have them.
Big J Okerson
I didn't start making money until I was 40.
Chris DiStefano
He. No, but Lewis drove before that.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
Oh, okay.
Tim Dillon
He drove. He just did. He wasn't.
Big J Okerson
Liz. I drove from 16 to 19. Then I moved to New York City when I was 19, and then I didn't get my license again until I was 39.
Dan Soder
It's. I can hear the hor. Like, the honking. And you going, what do you want me to do?
Big J Okerson
I'm trying to get a hol.
Dan Soder
I go, you got money? Got money.
Louis J. Gomez
I. And it can't be Dan because they didn't have easy pass in Colorado.
Dan Soder
Yeah. What are you going to New York?
Louis J. Gomez
New jerk.
Dan Soder
Another farm.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah. What they have, like, Mountain pass.
Dan Soder
You got to pay a prospect.
Louis J. Gomez
When did Boulder pass?
Tim Dillon
When did EAS come out?
Louis J. Gomez
He sprayed 20, 30. 30 years. I mean, I feel like it's always been out.
Big J Okerson
Look at Tim. This is good acting. This is the acting from Tim right here.
Dan Soder
Why did he volunteer that?
Tim Dillon
Oh, I don't know.
Dan Soder
Sherlock Holmes.
Big J Okerson
That was.
Dan Soder
Riddle me this.
Big J Okerson
I could. I could feel your heart beating faster right now like Daredevil.
Chris DiStefano
It's this kind of acting that garnered you the part in the horror film Thanksgiving Again.
Tim Dillon
I made. I made $3,500.
Dan Soder
But you got the SAG health insurance.
Louis J. Gomez
Did they let you keep. When they decapitated you, they let you keep your prostatic cavities.
Tim Dillon
I have the head.
Louis J. Gomez
I wanted to ask.
Tim Dillon
I have the head.
Louis J. Gomez
That's awesome.
Tim Dillon
I gave it to President Trump. Joe Rogan presented it for me. President Trump. It's not me. I understand why people think it's me.
Dan Soder
It does feel like Lewis is just.
Louis J. Gomez
It feels like a Lewis move.
Tim Dillon
It's a Lewis move because, number one, he has no cash. He doesn't know he has any cash because he's.
Dan Soder
Yeah, it's others. It's another person's.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah. It wouldn't be Tim, because Tim would just drive right through the.
Tim Dillon
I'd go through it.
Louis J. Gomez
He wouldn't stop.
Tim Dillon
Yeah, I'd go through it.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
I don't know if they said why. Maybe that I said I'm fighting anti.
Big J Okerson
By the way. I mean, Big J. Big J is very quiet right now, which is not. It's not a JTL to be super quiet. Jay's usually loud and throwing it at other people.
Tim Dillon
This is a J. I think he.
Big J Okerson
Knows his tells now. Jay's been driving since he was 19 years old to New York City, back and forth between Philly. He's been driving through tolls more than a spot.
Tim Dillon
And he didn't think that he didn't have the cash for whatever reason.
Chris DiStefano
And it was all cash then, and.
Tim Dillon
It was all cash, but he didn't have any of it for whatever reason.
Dan Soder
Oh, you're going with it. I don't know. God damn it. I was so sure it was Lewis.
Tim Dillon
No, it's going to be Jay. It's Jay Okerson.
Big J Okerson
J. I really think it's J.
Chris DiStefano
Have at it.
Big J Okerson
Jay's trying to not do his tells that he got from the AI guy. Right now.
Tim Dillon
He's just like, have at it, Jay.
Chris DiStefano
Well, I'm not going to say honestly.
Tim Dillon
Jay's been driving a long time.
Big J Okerson
Jay's been driving A very long time. Yeah. Bad move, Dan.
Dan Soder
I'm trusting my instincts on Louis.
Chris DiStefano
My marker's dead.
Tim Dillon
It could also be Louis. I hope it's Jay.
Chris DiStefano
Well, it's Tim.
Tim Dillon
It's not. I'm 19 years old right now. I started driving two years ago.
Chris DiStefano
Live your truth.
Dan Soder
I'm going.
Big J Okerson
Big J Okerson. Final answer. That was my first instinct.
Chris DiStefano
Alex, lay it on these.
Alex
That story belongs to Dan Soder.
Louis J. Gomez
What the.
Chris DiStefano
No, no.
Tim Dillon
Oh, my God. Insane.
Dan Soder
That's wild.
Chris DiStefano
Damn.
Tim Dillon
That's insane.
Louis J. Gomez
Dude.
Dan Soder
It's called a. It's a toll pass.
Chris DiStefano
You. You got yourself out of it with that. That's a little bit of a flim flam right there.
Dan Soder
There's not.
Big J Okerson
There's not. There's no lie here. He just said before Evie.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah, yeah.
Chris DiStefano
Before the era. As I was saying, you used before easy pass is an era.
Big J Okerson
Like he could have said before the movie Independence Day, and it would be on the up and up.
Louis J. Gomez
So you lied about it being called easy pass.
Dan Soder
It was. Yeah, it was like E470 pass or whatever, but it was a tollway. I was gonna put tollway, but he should.
Louis J. Gomez
That shouldn't count because he lied in his story.
Big J Okerson
Well, no, no, no. Let me say this. There's no lie here. It was before easy pass.
Chris DiStefano
It was before the.
Tim Dillon
Before easy pass. You think about New York?
Louis J. Gomez
Yes, that's what it was.
Tim Dillon
It was a slick move.
Big J Okerson
It was a slick.
Louis J. Gomez
He's a sneaky fuck.
Big J Okerson
But it is. It's above board. I'll tell you right now.
Tim Dillon
I get it.
Dan Soder
It all checks out.
Big J Okerson
I make up the rules as we go.
Dan Soder
It's about, why don't you tell your friends in the Trump administration about my cool moves?
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
Oh, so you flim. Flammed us.
Big J Okerson
So what happened? They let. They let you through, Dan?
Dan Soder
Oh, dude. Yeah. It was a scene. It was like, five cars. One of them was a giant truck, and it was off E470, which is.
Chris DiStefano
Like, oh, you know, that guy's looking for.
Dan Soder
And it was like the honking of trying to talk in an intercom. What's going. And I'm going, I don't have any cash. I was like, 17. I was like, I don't have any cash. And I was like. I was like, you. Please let me through. Please let me through. Oh, man. It's very embarrassing.
Big J Okerson
Alex, where are points at three rounds?
Louis J. Gomez
That even fooled you.
Big J Okerson
That was slick.
Tim Dillon
It fooled me, and I'm actually ashamed.
Big J Okerson
Dan just pulled the head. All right.
Alex
On the scoreboard. Tied for last place. I have Louis J. Gomez, Big J OKERSON and Chris DiStefano.
Louis J. Gomez
Wow.
Big J Okerson
It's early.
Louis J. Gomez
I know.
Chris DiStefano
In second place, this is usually where I max out.
Alex
In second place, with four points, Tim Dillon. And in the lead with six points, Dan Soder.
Dan Soder
Swift moves, Swift moves.
Louis J. Gomez
Yep. That was a big one.
Chris DiStefano
It's getting intense, Dan. You are inching closer to a brand new copy of Delight within the light Portraits of Donald Hall, Richard Wilbur, Maxine Kohman and Stanley Kunitz. This collection presents a nuanced examination of the intertwining of life and art in the lives of Hall, Wilbur Kohman and Kunitz. Bram captures the essence of each poet's journey, highlighting their contributions to American poetry and their individual philosophies. The narratives underscore the resilience and adaptability required to sustain a lifelong commitment to the craft.
Tim Dillon
I have a question.
Chris DiStefano
You could taste it.
Dan Soder
I don't want to get too excited. Are they.
Big J Okerson
Are these three girls that don't know what the show is? You guys having a good time?
Dan Soder
Fuck yeah.
Big J Okerson
Great. Three new fans right now.
Dan Soder
One of them just woke back up. What?
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
By the way, that did seem like that. No, turn off. I'm still watching that.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
What?
Dan Soder
She is Tim to go up yet?
Big J Okerson
Guys, let's take a quick moment and thank crowd health for being a supporter of today's show. The truth is, health insurance is broken. My health insurance is so fucking expensive. Premium premiums are increasing, deductibles are getting larger, and claim denials are happening all the time. Way more common. The headache of health insurance is exactly why crowd health was created. It's not health insurance. It's a better way to pay for health care through crowdfunding. Crowd health gives their members the freedom to efficiently and affordably break free from the antiquated insurance system and into health care options that fit your needs.
Chris DiStefano
The insurance companies don't give you the peace of mind that you need. Crowd health does. That's why you're 50. $50 a month membership includes the tools and services you need to get the highest quality health care. You get access to telemedicine visits, discounted prescriptions, and a whole bunch more without doctors networks messing things up. You'll also have access to your own personal health care advocate who will help you navigate the complexities of the health events and even help you negotiate the bills to make it easier on you. And of course, you'll join the crowd, a group of members just like you who want to help pay for each other's unexpected medical events.
Big J Okerson
It's time that you opt out of restricted health insurance plans and let crowd health help fit your healthcare needs. Get started today for just $50 a month. Go to joincrowdhealth.com wars w a r Z to get health care you deserve. Once Again, go to joincrowdhealth.comwarz to get the health care that you deserve.
Chris DiStefano
Crowd health is not insurance. Learn more@joincrowdhealth.com that's joincrowdhealth.com/wars. Let's get back into it.
Big J Okerson
Alex. Story number four.
Alex
Story number four. My best friend and I tricked his developmentally disabled aunt into thinking we were kidnapped by leaving a ransom note for her.
Louis J. Gomez
This is the definition of Tim Dillon.
Dan Soder
This is.
Chris DiStefano
This is.
Dan Soder
This is a hundred percent.
Louis J. Gomez
This is on his Wikipedia.
Dan Soder
This is his maau culin in the good son.
Louis J. Gomez
I mean, this couldn't.
Tim Dillon
I never spent time with anyone who is developmentally disabled.
Louis J. Gomez
Yes.
Tim Dillon
In my life.
Louis J. Gomez
Yes. And his development. Developmentally disabled aunt is on kill Tony next week.
Chris DiStefano
Golden ticket.
Tim Dillon
No, it. See, it seems. It seems like me, but no, nobody I knew was like a retarded person.
Chris DiStefano
Well, see, that's.
Tim Dillon
No, I wish I did no more, but I just didn't.
Chris DiStefano
Let me tell you that Louis knows how to play this game as well.
Tim Dillon
As autism and all that.
Chris DiStefano
And he would never. Lewis in life would never say developmentally disabled, but he knows if you said his aunt, we would just think it was Louis because he was going, no, it's clearly.
Tim Dillon
It's clearly Louis because he's probably in contact with those types.
Chris DiStefano
Absolutely. I don't even think he knew those types were those types till he got around other people.
Dan Soder
He goes, you guys ever been around sharper people? These people are so cunning.
Chris DiStefano
Do you know you can get friends your age that don't lick your face?
Big J Okerson
I mean guys, I mean story.
Tim Dillon
No, I always tried to make, literally, I always tried to make friends of people who were, like, doing good.
Big J Okerson
Even your friend. I wouldn't hang out with the story. Your friend is doing good. It's his development. I can't even say it.
Tim Dillon
Developmentally disabled ants. Look it up before you submitted it. Yeah, no, I wouldn't hang out with someone's development.
Louis J. Gomez
Even the grammar, though, of it. My best friend and I, this just. That's not. Louis Gomez doesn't talk like that.
Dan Soder
Me and my buddy.
Louis J. Gomez
That's not the kind of grammar they have at the Aurora, Colorado school district.
Dan Soder
This sounds like a guy with a dad with two broken legs. He goes, you want to play ransom, though?
Tim Dillon
They go, watch ransom Now, Chris, you.
Dan Soder
Know the recorded art.
Louis J. Gomez
My developmentally disabled aunt is just Maurice. Just Giannis is Maurisa.
Tim Dillon
That's it. That's it.
Dan Soder
The kids were taken.
Chris DiStefano
That's it.
Tim Dillon
I said, louis, I think he had someone write it for him or he.
Chris DiStefano
I don't think Lewis had a best friend.
Tim Dillon
Lewis is smarter than you think.
Dan Soder
He goes, you don't say that. Imaginary friend.
Chris DiStefano
This is a Lewis move for sure. I feel like I would have heard this.
Dan Soder
Screams dim. Dillon, though.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah. Louis being involved in a ransom.
Tim Dillon
If I knew a developmentally or retarded person, I would have done this. But I didn't know. I know, but I would have done.
Louis J. Gomez
Although I do have to say. I do have to say, though, a situation like this, this does sound like some just Philly trash to do. And that's. And that's.
Dan Soder
Yes.
Louis J. Gomez
Right.
Dan Soder
Good argument.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
I'm going. I'm probably going J. But I still think it's Louis.
Big J Okerson
I think Tim is. Is. There's a whole wall of lies happening before our very.
Tim Dillon
I haven't lied one time on the show. Think about it. I have not lied.
Big J Okerson
That is also true. But you. That's the game. So I feel like at this point.
Tim Dillon
The game is to be an honest person, not say, oh, easy pass is not here.
Big J Okerson
Tim, let's not.
Dan Soder
Tim, let's not do this. Let's not throw mud at how each other gets points.
Big J Okerson
I mean, I gross it. By the way, Dan Soder, he's a little bit of a trickster. I can see you and your buddies doing this, thinking this was funny when you were first off.
Dan Soder
I have the kidnapped voice. I wouldn't need a. No.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah, that's true.
Chris DiStefano
Note will be our.
Dan Soder
We have. We have your son, you dum dum. Hey, dum dum. Where's Rory and Dan?
Chris DiStefano
She's the mobile. Mobile police. She's the mouth.
Dan Soder
If you ever want to see the bag of M&M's we took from you.
Big J Okerson
If you ever want to see your pudding again.
Dan Soder
Yeah, this is Tim Dillon.
Louis J. Gomez
I think it's Tim.
Tim Dillon
I'm going to go with Lewis or J.
Dan Soder
It does sound like a Philly dirt bag.
Tim Dillon
I'm going to go with Jay. I wish it was me because this is hilarious, but I didn't know any development developmentally disabled people or retarded people.
Chris DiStefano
Alice can change words. I would have wrote my best friend and I tricked his goofball aunt.
Tim Dillon
Yeah, but then we would have.
Dan Soder
Yeah, we know. This is your book report language.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, sure.
Big J Okerson
Jay recently learned to change the Way he says things.
Dan Soder
Yeah, this is gloves off dress shirt Jay.
Chris DiStefano
Whatever.
Louis J. Gomez
My original gut choice of Timmy Dim.
Big J Okerson
Alex, did you change the wording of this at all?
Tim Dillon
She works for you.
Alex
No longer answering that question.
Tim Dillon
Oh.
Chris DiStefano
Damn. Oh.
Dan Soder
Girl, get it. You let him go to space for 11 minutes.
Chris DiStefano
Slay, slay.
Dan Soder
Next thing you know they're yapping about the rules.
Big J Okerson
Everyone is voting Tim right now.
Tim Dillon
Damn interesting. I'm.
Dan Soder
I don't like that you lay in the cut like this sometimes.
Big J Okerson
I lay in the cut.
Dan Soder
Okay.
Tim Dillon
When he's guilty.
Chris DiStefano
Yes, he does do this when he's guilty sometimes.
Dan Soder
The guy told me the robot man.
Chris DiStefano
The robot AI guy told me this.
Big J Okerson
Could be a Chris D story.
Tim Dillon
I would never do this as I.
Big J Okerson
Think I would try to get money. I. I think it could be genuinely anybody on this panel.
Louis J. Gomez
But it is Tim.
Tim Dillon
It's not me. I'll tell you. You're gonna just keep losing.
Big J Okerson
I. I feel like Tim's being very honest. Right. I think this is Chris D. Chris D. I think this is Chris.
Louis J. Gomez
See how excited he was to tell you with somebody else.
Big J Okerson
Let's see.
Tim Dillon
No, I'm not excited at all.
Big J Okerson
Alex. All of her answers are in.
Alex
That's right. Belongs to Tim Dillon.
Tim Dillon
Of course it does.
Louis J. Gomez
Of course it does.
Tim Dillon
Of course. Developmentally disabled. You couldn't spell that if someone was going to kill James.
Dan Soder
You wouldn't even be able to this.
Big J Okerson
Nothing.
Tim Dillon
Are you crazy?
Dan Soder
Oh boy.
Tim Dillon
Wait, do I lose or I lose?
Big J Okerson
You just know you won one point, cuz you tricked me.
Tim Dillon
Oh, I got a point from you.
Dan Soder
From me?
Louis J. Gomez
Did a good job.
Big J Okerson
Timmy looked me right in the eyes. That was so honest the way you were talking to me.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, he said I believe. Now.
Big J Okerson
I really believed him.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, I saw you were hurt.
Big J Okerson
So what happened to this story? Did she believe you guys?
Tim Dillon
Her name was Denise. We called her Doink.
Chris DiStefano
After the name of the clown.
Tim Dillon
After the name of the clown in Tekken. And she called his mother and started crying cause she was really stupid and she thought we had been kidnapped.
Dan Soder
Who wrote the note?
Tim Dillon
Me and my friend.
Dan Soder
Did you guys do the thing where you cut out the letters from magazines?
Tim Dillon
No, we just wrote it like crazy. She was that dumb.
Big J Okerson
Also, Doink was a professional wrestler.
Tim Dillon
You know what I mean? Whatever.
Big J Okerson
That you're so gay.
Tim Dillon
Whatever it is. I'm sorry. Maybe if you spend less time playing video games and more with human people, you would have known. You just got mad.
Big J Okerson
I can't believe I fumbled that.
Dan Soder
It was so obvious.
Big J Okerson
Alex, where are our points at after four rounds all right.
Alex
In last place with two points, Louis J. Gomez.
Tim Dillon
That's right.
Alex
Tied for third place with four points each, Big J Okerson and Chris DiStefano.
Chris DiStefano
If I beat Lewis, that should count as a win for me. All right.
Alex
In second place with five points, Tim Dillon.
Tim Dillon
Fighting.
Alex
And in the lead with eight points, Dan Soder.
Big J Okerson
Dan can smell that book right now.
Dan Soder
I fucking need it so bad.
Louis J. Gomez
Well, you know what? I want to make things interesting since I previously won in September, I'd like to do double points.
Dan Soder
Double points.
Big J Okerson
Oh, shit.
Tim Dillon
What? Hold on. What does that mean?
Louis J. Gomez
They told me.
Big J Okerson
Tell them you're allowed. So. So in the. Jay, you want to explain what it exactly is?
Chris DiStefano
Sure. I could explain it to you. For the final four stories before, if you fooled somebody, you'd get one point. If you guessed the correct story, you got two points. Now, that goes double points because I won.
Louis J. Gomez
That's it.
Dan Soder
Oh, man.
Big J Okerson
Double points.
Dan Soder
And if you win, you get to say it.
Tim Dillon
Yeah.

Alex
Story number five. I ran for student council treasurer in fifth grade and lost Tim Dillon.
Dan Soder
Yeah, this is where it all began, dude.
Tim Dillon
Yes, this is. I'm not a fed. That's like a fed move.
Louis J. Gomez
True, right?
Tim Dillon
It was a fed move. Well, I was an actor. I didn't have time. Literally.
Chris DiStefano
Lewis would try to get in student government.
Dan Soder
Yeah, Lewis loves power.
Big J Okerson
I did a lot of weird things. I. I really did. I was in chess club. I was in musical theater. I was in all these things that you wouldn't expect me to be in.
Chris DiStefano
Oh, I know you were in musical theater. Chest surprised me. Yeah, but musical theater, I know that about.
Big J Okerson
I didn't know how to play chess and I joined the chess club.
Dan Soder
Did you.
Tim Dillon
Did you do good?
Big J Okerson
No, I never won a single match. I don't know how to play to this day.
Dan Soder
Why did you join?
Big J Okerson
I just know how the pieces move.
Dan Soder
Why did you join the.
Big J Okerson
Because I thought it be hilarious to join chess club.
Dan Soder
What was going to be the punchline?
Big J Okerson
The punchline was like, look, I'm in chess club.
Dan Soder
O. I go and so play me. This guy goes right here. Treasurer.
Big J Okerson
There's only one Jew on this panel right now. Big J Okerson. I'm looking over at you.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
But you think I ever wanted to get involved?
Dan Soder
No.
Chris DiStefano
Government, maybe. Never. Once I. The only thing I ever did school activity wise like that was I joined the safety patrol because they let you leave 15 minutes or so before school was over.
Big J Okerson
Money.
Dan Soder
Do a sweep.
Chris DiStefano
No.
Tim Dillon
To go to what? To do what?
Chris DiStefano
I'll tell you exactly. To do what. You stay on the.
Dan Soder
Get the pedophiles going after you.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Dan Soder
And then the rest of the safely.
Chris DiStefano
I run decoy. They send me out there with my voluptuous curve.
Dan Soder
Whoa, who's this fat kid?
Chris DiStefano
And then I just run like in a figure 8 through the neighborhood, trying to keep them off the tail.
Tim Dillon
Can you imagine, by the way, like, the pedophiles chasing after Chris and Dan and they go, Jay Okerson and Tim Dillon will distract them. And the pedophiles, like, what?
Dan Soder
Always.
Chris DiStefano
We're so cushy.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
But Safety patrol, you leave, and then you'd be the person. It was stupid.
Big J Okerson
They give you a yellow banner. Right.
Chris DiStefano
It was a dumb orange. It would. It was a dumb idea because in my mind, I was doing it. I hated school so much that I was like, I can get out of school 15 minutes early.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
But you have to stay like a half hour past to do this when it's a red light. As if nobody can understand red lights.
Tim Dillon
Right.
Chris DiStefano
You have to do this. And then when it's green, you drop your arms.
Louis J. Gomez
Go.
Chris DiStefano
Go ahead.
Dan Soder
What if a guy. What if a guy plows through the safety squad?
Chris DiStefano
Well, I was the front line for sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. It was my job, I guess, to take the hit. I guess I had to take the brunt if it did go down.
Dan Soder
All right, we'll send Jay Okerson out there.
Chris DiStefano
The teacher goes, yeah, yeah, guys, that kid's a tank. The safety thing is digging into my tit meat.
Dan Soder
He'll at least stop a Saturn.
Big J Okerson
Chris. Chris went to college. He was a good student.
Dan Soder
Good kid.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
But fifth grade, dude, I literally thought I could make the NBA when I was in fifth grade. I swear to God, when I was in fifth grade, I used to get a mushroom haircut from supercuts and then shout out to number eight, I swear to God, dude. And then I would ask my cousin downstairs to braid it because I want it to be so. I would get the super cut haircut from my mom and then my cousin would braided and I would go shoot jump shots. Yeah, my cousin's Puerto Rican girl. Yeah, she would just braid my hair. And so. And so I wouldn't. I would say. I would say, yeah, I. I'm not. I played ball. I don't even think I went to catholic school. I don't think we had a student council.
Chris DiStefano
Dan was ripping butts by this point. He doesn't give a about politics.
Tim Dillon
No, I was acting. I was on a tour.
Big J Okerson
Tim was also ripping butts, but they were different butts.
Dan Soder
They were producer.
Tim Dillon
But I was touring on a tour which you guys know about fifth and sixth grade. I was acting. I was like barely in school.
Dan Soder
Yeah, but you guys could have had some like floating government, you know, child actor. Been a floating. They go, why it be fun actor. Kids are like, we should make our own government.
Chris DiStefano
They go, my initial instinct on this one, which I'm going to stick with, is l. J. Gomez, you're an idiot. I think he tries to jump in.
Big J Okerson
You're a fool.
Chris DiStefano
Well, you say so. I don't think I'm a fool.
Dan Soder
I think.
Big J Okerson
I think you're going to give a bunch of points right now to Chris D. That's what I think's happening.
Tim Dillon
Chris d. Could also be the one.
Big J Okerson
I think this is Chris.
Chris DiStefano
It could very much.
Big J Okerson
I don't think. I don't think that Tim would lie to me twice in one game.
Tim Dillon
I'm not gonna lie.
Chris DiStefano
I do think it's Louis.
Big J Okerson
I. I really think it's Chris.
Chris DiStefano
Dan, he showed his mind's work on his. I wish that we had a camera on that to see. You made something that wasn't a letter. You turned like a T into a.
Dan Soder
C. Yeah, I was gonna just edit it because I was gonna go, tim. And then I was like, you're an idiot, dude. We're giving.
Chris DiStefano
Why do you care?
Big J Okerson
This is because I want to win.
Chris DiStefano
Why do you care?
Big J Okerson
Cuz Dan's in the lead. What if it's Dan? Oh, if it's Dan.
Tim Dillon
I think it's actually Chris now. But I put you voted Dan.
Dan Soder
Nobody voted Dan. Dan's in. I wish, bro.
Tim Dillon
All right.
Chris DiStefano
Everyone's in.
Dan Soder
I wish I was in the government.
Chris DiStefano
Alex, it's okay.
Alex
That story belongs to Tim Dillon.
Dan Soder
You mine Again.
Louis J. Gomez
You.
Dan Soder
Mine again. You son of a.
Tim Dillon
See, I. I knew it.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah, I knew it.
Dan Soder
You got me.
Louis J. Gomez
I know it got me. See? I know it.
Dan Soder
Dude, you really.
Chris DiStefano
This is why Lewis doesn't trust men.
Louis J. Gomez
Yes.
Big J Okerson
You lied right to my face.
Dan Soder
Twice.
Chris DiStefano
He said out loud. Tim wouldn't lie to me twice.
Tim Dillon
Remember when I told you I need advance advances from Gas Digital to pay my rent, and I would take a photo of, like, a lobster I bought with it?
Big J Okerson
This is it. This is who you are.
Louis J. Gomez
Oh, yeah.
Big J Okerson
Who won this student council treasurer position?
Tim Dillon
A girl named Andrea Zuckerman. Zucker something. And she was like, of course you're trying to cut Andrea Feldman. And she had red hair, and she won. And now we're killing a lot of people in Gaza.
Chris DiStefano
Butterfly effect.
Tim Dillon
That's what happens. That's all I'm gonna say.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, now that fat kid's a God.
Dan Soder
I love that.
Chris DiStefano
Like, coacher's girlfriend's a meth addict.
Dan Soder
Everybody wants to. Everybody wants to be, like, student council president. And. And then Tim's like, I'll control the books.
Louis J. Gomez
You thought of him first. Tim. You said Tim right away, and you got swayed.
Dan Soder
Dude, I told you it was you.
Chris DiStefano
I thought I would have been Chris. I thought it would be you, too. I thought maybe your father taught you how to cook the books or something.
Dan Soder
Exactly.
Louis J. Gomez
That's true.
Dan Soder
He's like, that's my. He always does stuff with voiceovers when he's remembering it. That's my dad. He taught me.
Big J Okerson
I'm getting my dick kicked in right now, Alex.
Chris DiStefano
We all are.
Dan Soder
Tim might just caught up to me on the scoreboard.
Alex
In last place with two points.
Dan Soder
Oh, damn, Tim.
Big J Okerson
I forgot.
Dan Soder
Double points.
Alex
With four points, Big J Okerson tied with eight points each, Dan Soder and Chris Distefano. And in the lead with 11 points, Tim Dillon.
Louis J. Gomez
There he is.
Big J Okerson
Son of a.
Dan Soder
That was a big move.
Chris DiStefano
It's your week, buddy. It is your week.
Big J Okerson
Wow.
Louis J. Gomez
This is it.
Big J Okerson
I hope House Hunters takes your number. Ninth spot on Netflix.
Tim Dillon
Don't say that. It's gonna happen.
Louis J. Gomez
The algorithm's listening.
Big J Okerson
Ah. All right, let's take a quick moment to thank Mando for supporting today's show. We love Mando's Whole Body deodorant. It really is great. If you're a Story wars fan, Gas Digital fan in general, you're probably a smelly piece of. And Mando has.
Chris DiStefano
You're definitely fat.
Big J Okerson
You have a lot of pockets and crevices in your body that probably just fester with stink.
Chris DiStefano
And if you don't your sister does.
Big J Okerson
Look, Mando has you covered, literally and figuratively. This is total body deodorant. Not just for your armpit, but any of those little crevices and pits on your body. Whether it's your package, your grundle, your butt crack, your feet, you can use it literally anywhere. I love their amazing scents. The bourbon leather is literally my favorite scent at all.

Alex
One year I failed a class and had to go to summer school.
Tim Dillon
Lou.
Alex
Then I had to switch summer schools because I was violently threatened on the first day.
Dan Soder
This is a Chris or J story.
Big J Okerson
This seems like a J. J went to school with black people. Black people violently threaten smart.
Chris DiStefano
Big J. Yeah, well, it says summer school, but all right.
Dan Soder
This feels like a Chrissy D story.
Louis J. Gomez
No, I never went to summer school, man. My mom made me go to school. She was very. I could not be how my dad turned out.
Big J Okerson
I went to summer school one year, but I was not violent. I was doing the violent threatening, right?
Dan Soder
Yeah, but maybe you just changed your perspective for the points.
Chris DiStefano
This is his easy pass moment.
Tim Dillon
Is it possible Soder went to summer school?
Dan Soder
I did go to summer school.
Tim Dillon
Okay?
Dan Soder
But I was not violently threatened.
Chris DiStefano
You think Dan was a great student?
Dan Soder
He wasn't saying that. I don't know why you could be mean about it.
Chris DiStefano
I went to summer school.
Louis J. Gomez
Tim is too smart for summer school.
Tim Dillon
No, I went to summer school.
Louis J. Gomez
Oh, you did?
Tim Dillon
Yeah, but they wouldn't let me, so, like, I wouldn't be able to. You can't. First of all, how do you switch summer schools?
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
Where do you go? Go to another district. It doesn't even make sense.
Dan Soder
Yeah, because it was.
Tim Dillon
What other school. Summer school do you go to summer school. You're gonna be threatened in every summer school.
Dan Soder
Yeah, that is true, though, because it all filtered into one school. Yeah.
Tim Dillon
Summer school was. Not every district didn't have their own summer. So I don't know how that even.
Chris DiStefano
Where did you go to school, Chris? Queens.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
Archbishop Malloy. That's right.
Dan Soder
Let's go.
Louis J. Gomez
Cougars come to the meetings Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Tim Dillon
I'm up. This is just, this is just off instinct. Off pure instinct. Off pure instinct. I feel like it's Chris.
Louis J. Gomez
Nope.
Tim Dillon
I feel like his parents made him leave. He said he was threatened. His parents made him leave. He didn't probably want to leave, but they were like, you're not going to get in a fight. You're not going to fuck it up. I'm thinking it's Chris.
Dan Soder
No, it's also.
Tim Dillon
Look at his face right now. No, he's can't really. It is Chris.
Big J Okerson
He's just pointing. He's just pointing for something.
Louis J. Gomez
You know what?
Tim Dillon
And it could be. It's fully Chris.
Dan Soder
He goes. I think we have a clip of it.
Tim Dillon
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Chris can't say any words. He's just pointing him fully Chris.
Dan Soder
He goes there. There's not school in the summer.
Louis J. Gomez
No, because I think it was Tim. Because he, he switched summer. He switches summer schools because he tells the school that his disabled aunt was kidnapped. And that's what it is.
Tim Dillon
It's, it's Chris.
Louis J. Gomez
It's not me, I swear.
Big J Okerson
Tim is making a great point right.
Dan Soder
Now, but also, Tim is smarter than all of us.
Tim Dillon
It's not true. That's not true.
Big J Okerson
Tim could want us all to vote wrong. So he.
Dan Soder
Tim's the scientist that. We're the chimps.
Tim Dillon
I do not believe. I do not believe you. Listen, I think it's Chris.
Louis J. Gomez
I think it's Big J. Because that's again, no, it's absolutely Chris. It's a Jewish thing. It's not.
Tim Dillon
It's Chris.
Dan Soder
You guys are gonna wild move.
Louis J. Gomez
You guys gonna feel dumb.
Big J Okerson
Maybe.
Tim Dillon
Maybe.
Louis J. Gomez
Watch this.
Tim Dillon
Big J. Lewis. What are you writing?
Dan Soder
Amy. Chris.
Big J Okerson
Amy.
Louis J. Gomez
Hungry. I never went to summer school. You can ask my mom.
Big J Okerson
That's right, Jason.
Louis J. Gomez
Because it's a Jewish thing to do.
Big J Okerson
Big Jay. What?
Dan Soder
I, I, I know that I Am big. Jason is a country star.
Big J Okerson
It sounds like I'm being lazy, but I believe that Jay went to school in Philly. It was a very ghetto area.
Tim Dillon
He's taking Jay out of a Philly school for this. Think of where Jay went to school. Who's switching Jay to another school? Think about it. They're going to Jay and going deal with it. Unless I'm totally wrong, which I could be, but it feels like this is a Bishop Malloy thing. This is not a Philly thing.
Chris DiStefano
My mother would tell me to deal with it for sure.
Tim Dillon
This is not a Philly thing.
Big J Okerson
James had had a lot of problems with being.
Dan Soder
If this happened to Jay, they just.
Chris DiStefano
Send him to bail, probably at all.
Big J Okerson
She's a real pussy, is what I'm saying.
Chris DiStefano
Lock it in, bro.
Big J Okerson
Locking it in. Big J Okerson.
Alex
That story belongs to Big J Elkinson.
Dan Soder
Yes.
Louis J. Gomez
It's a Jewish thing to do.
Tim Dillon
I've lost all respect for Philadelphia.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah. Told you.
Dan Soder
You're so big when you win a super. Oh, fuck.
Big J Okerson
Jay, what happened here?
Chris DiStefano
I had to go to summer school one year, and they send you to actual. Overbrook High School is where summer school was. I went to a school called Lamberton that was shitty, but west. But Overbrook High School was where we had to go. That's the school where Fresh Prince got in the one little fight and his mom got scared.
Dan Soder
Holy.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, where they got. Well, they'll pick you up and spin you around.
Dan Soder
Did your mom go like this before? Yeah.
Chris DiStefano
You're moving with your father in Canton, Ohio. He doesn't want you. So you're coming back.
Dan Soder
He Jazzy Jeffed you out of.
Chris DiStefano
No. So I had to go to Overbrook, and my mom dropped me off in the morning, and it was. I don't know what the reverse of the turd and the punch bowl is, but that's what it was. As I was the only white face in this entire place.
Dan Soder
Oh, my little piece of Parmesan.
Chris DiStefano
I mean. And I remember. I always remember the kid. His name was John Walden. I saw the first, like, black friend of mine, school friend, at the top of the steps, and I was like, oh, nice. Like a friendly face. And I was like, John. And he went and ignored me. And then I kind of waited outside. Yeah. Yeah. I was like. And I. Yeah, No, I think I had more of like a. Oh, okay.
Big J Okerson
Okay.
Chris DiStefano
Like, oh, I didn't want to. So, like, then they let us all in. They let us all into the school. And then there was somewhere. I found out right away, like, My class wasn't for like an hour or so, so I was there way early. And they go, but you can't just linger in the school for the hour. You got to go outside. So I went back outside and I go, I called my mom from the phone. There's no cell phones. I called her from the pay phone in the school. I was like, hey, can you come get me? Because I don't want to hang out around here for an hour. Like, we'll get breakfast or something, please. And she was like, all right, fine. But she goes, but come to the curb, cause I'm not stopping. And she goes, this neighborhood's crazy. It was bad. It's a bad neighborhood. And so I was waiting on the corner. And then while I was waiting for her, a car pulled up with loud music and weed smoke billowing out of it. And the guy in the driver's seat, it's four people in the car. And the guy in the driver's seat goes, yo, my man, come here. They were black. He goes, yeah, my man, come here. And I go over like a doofus. And he goes, nah, come here. And I put my head like almost through the window. He reaches over his passenger and grabs me and pulls me into the window. He goes, yo, you got some money for me? And I went, no. And he goes, but you're gonna have some tomorrow, right? And I was like, yes. And he goes, and you're gonna have some for me every day for the rest of the summer, aren't you? And I went, uh huh. And then he goes, yeah. And he let me go and he drove away. And then my mom pulled up and my lip was quivering and I got in the car and she was like, what's wrong? And I was like, I can't go back here or you have to give me money to give to a guy every day.
Big J Okerson
She was like, you're gonna have to become school treasurer. So to get that money, siphon it.
Dan Soder
Siphon it to him.
Chris DiStefano
You're skim off the top, baby. So it cost. My other friend was in summer school that year and his mom paid for him to go to some. It was like 100 bucks. And you would get the summer school credit, but you went to one classroom with every kid. Didn't matter what you were there for. PE History. It didn't matter. You were sitting in there and it was a guy with. It was a black dude with so many prefixes and suffixes on his name. It was like, doctor, Reverend, something something, Esquire, dds, Lutheran, and. And he didn't teach us anything except what he wanted to teach us. He would just say about it. It was like prison knowledge. He was like, when the head of the mafia dies, the whole mafia fall apart. It's like the head of the snake. And then he would quiz us on that shit. And then we got credit for summer school.
Louis J. Gomez
Nice.
Dan Soder
Jay comes out wearing one of those Muslim.
Chris DiStefano
I was like, you see, mom, what I should have done was spoken to that man about out his inquiry into my money. I should have said, it is my money. But if we need a community, I would share it. If it would come back to me. Tenfold brother.
Louis J. Gomez
Good morning, beloved.
Big J Okerson
Solid, Alex. After six rounds, it was a big shake up. Just now, Big J got some points. All right, where are our points at?
Alex
All right, everyone on the scoreboard. In last place with six points, Lewis J. Gomez.
Chris DiStefano
Was a big round for you.
Alex
Tied for third place with eight points each. Big J Okerson and Dan Soder.
Dan Soder
This game stupid to lie to me.
Chris DiStefano
I was going to say together again, but I guess this game.
Dan Soder
Oh, no. I'm sorry.
Chris DiStefano
No, I don't care.
Dan Soder
Oh, baby. I'm sorry, baby. Come on, baby, take those pants.
Chris DiStefano
Come on.
Alex
Now in second place with 11 points, Tim Dylan.
Dan Soder
Oh, damn.
Tim Dillon
Wow.
Alex
And in the lead with 12 points, Chris Dis pulling it out.
Dan Soder
Hush.
Louis J. Gomez
Fish him along. We come back, we don't go to summer school.
Dan Soder
It is funny when the stories aren't about you and everyone's like this piece.
Louis J. Gomez
Of like, it's got to be scumbag Chrissy, that story.
Tim Dillon
That's this.
Chris DiStefano
That's my first story night, everybody. Every story's been like this. Seems like some Philly face.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah, we're like, you Jew.
Tim Dillon
Alex.
Big J Okerson
Story number seven.
Alex
Story number seven. I was doing a bar show and I thought I saw one of my friends in the back of the room. I snuck through the crowd and surprised him by running up and tickling him. It wasn't my friend Chrissy D. This.
Dan Soder
Is so Chrissy D. I thought Lewis, I thought Lewis, I thought. No, no, this is Chrissy D. No.
Louis J. Gomez
Dude, Lewis is a tickler.
Big J Okerson
I am a tickler.
Dan Soder
You can't. The funniest part about, like, Jay like.
Big J Okerson
Looks like a tough guy.
Dan Soder
He's got gloves on. He's so ticklish.
Big J Okerson
Adorable.
Chris DiStefano
Stop on pee. Come in pee. They're pretty girls.
Louis J. Gomez
It's Louis. Lewis tickled me in the green room today.
Big J Okerson
I do tickle.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, he's a tickle ball.
Big J Okerson
Lewis.
Dan Soder
Dude, he's too upfront about it right now.
Chris DiStefano
Dan, you don't seem like a tickle is disgusting. Even a friend to start with a tickle.
Dan Soder
It's too much intimacy.
Louis J. Gomez
No.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Dan's got those long, gangly fingers.
Dan Soder
I'm not tickling across the shadow.
Chris DiStefano
Tim, you're going to slide up behind somebody and tickle.
Tim Dillon
I have never acknowledged anyone that I have seen that's from my past. I've never acknowledged one person.
Big J Okerson
Tim would not tickle somebody.
Tim Dillon
If I saw someone I knew, I would be like, I don't even know you.
Dan Soder
It just feels.
Tim Dillon
Why would I admit to some.
Louis J. Gomez
No, Tim's not a tickler. Tim is the only person on this panel that has sex with men and he's the straightest of us all. We're the only ones who would tickle and not Tim would never.
Dan Soder
We are all way gayer than Tim. Are you saying it out loud? Are you just serial killing it and just saying you did it?
Big J Okerson
No, it's not me. I am a tickler. I believe that. This is Chris.
Tim Dillon
It's about the secret. Here is the friend. I saw one of my friends in the back of the room. Who's more likely to see a friend in the back of the room of a bar show?
Big J Okerson
And I know, by the way, I never ever did bar shows.
Dan Soder
Yeah, you do.
Big J Okerson
I ran my own shows.
Dan Soder
Never.
Big J Okerson
I mean, like five times in my life.
Dan Soder
I did.
Tim Dillon
Getting booked on a bar show is hard.
Chris DiStefano
That was his built in excuse. So he goes, well, I mean, my bar shows, I wasn't counting. He. Lewis will play games like this.
Dan Soder
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
Because you, you would. You maybe you're running.
Big J Okerson
Jay didn't do bar shows. You know what these, these guys.
Chris DiStefano
Absolutely.
Big J Okerson
Soda and Tim did a lot of bars.
Louis J. Gomez
Dan was doing bar shows. When Dan was doing bar shows, he was drinking a lot.
Big J Okerson
That's right.
Dan Soder
That's a. I wasn't a drug tickler.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah, you tickled me. That's who it was. You thought it was Nate. It was some.
Big J Okerson
First off, you don't tickle Nate right into an Emmy's hosting position.
Dan Soder
He goes, oh, that feels so good. You're my best friend now. He goes, in Tennessee, that's how we make friends, buddy. You just tickled your way into a best friend.
Big J Okerson
This could be Dan or Chris in my opinion.
Dan Soder
I feel like you or Chris. I feel like it's you and you're just saying it out loud.
Big J Okerson
You can say it to me all you want. You're going to waste your points, my friend.
Tim Dillon
It is so hard.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah. I do not believe this was Tim Dylan at all.
Tim Dillon
It Wasn't me, but I don't. I think it was. I don't know.
Big J Okerson
I don't.
Tim Dillon
Do I see Lewis getting off the stage and running towards someone to tickle them, or do you see Chris doing it?
Dan Soder
It's not the tickling I could see doing it.
Chris DiStefano
The bar show is freaking out. The bar shows freaking me out on Lewis because he's definitely the most likely to run up and.
Dan Soder
And that's something. But also that's something that he would put in to throw you off the scent.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
I was doing a bar show, and I thought I saw one of my friends in the back of the room. Lewis has, like, Louis, New York City friends. Like, Chris grew up in New York. Lewis grew up in Westchester. But I guess you could Rock County. Rock.
Louis J. Gomez
I know.
Tim Dillon
I'm being nice. I don't know. Who do you think's more likely to see their friend in a bar?
Dan Soder
I feel like this is a Lewis move.
Louis J. Gomez
I think it was Dan when his drinking days at a bar. I think. I think he thought it was Nate.
Tim Dillon
Now I'm going to go with Chris. I'll probably lose again. But should I go with Lewis?
Big J Okerson
It's either Sodor or should I go with Lewis? You shouldn't go with me. Timmy. I wouldn't lie to you. I'm your real friend.
Tim Dillon
All right, I'm going with Lewis.
Dan Soder
That's Lewis. That's 100% Louis. Right?
Tim Dillon
Lewis right now. But it could be Chris.
Louis J. Gomez
It's not me.
Big J Okerson
It's really not Chris.
Louis J. Gomez
I'm telling you, it's Dan Soder. I'm positive I don't tickle my.
Tim Dillon
If it's Dan, I don't know what Dan was drinking.
Big J Okerson
Dan would tickle his friends, unquestionably.
Dan Soder
I never. When did I ever tickle you? When I was drunk.
Big J Okerson
You know, you were a. You were a problem when you were drunk.
Chris DiStefano
When you black out, the tickle monster woke up.
Dan Soder
That's not possible. I don't have a tickle monster that lives inside of me that was prayed away at a young age.
Big J Okerson
You know what?
Dan Soder
I'm going.
Big J Okerson
My first instinct. I've been losing this whole game because I've been second guessing myself. Chris D. He's a tickly, charming son of a.
Dan Soder
Absolutely.
Big J Okerson
And here it is.
Louis J. Gomez
Not a tickler.
Dan Soder
Come on.
Chris DiStefano
I'm not in yet. I'm going.
Big J Okerson
Don't you dare. You're letting somebody pull ahead so far. Jay, you're an idiot. You're a fool.
Dan Soder
You're a fool.
Big J Okerson
You're. Jay, don't let Your hand.
Dan Soder
Go.
Big J Okerson
You're an idiot. I swear in my son's life, that's not me.
Tim Dillon
You don't.
Louis J. Gomez
That wouldn't stop him. I still don't believe him.
Chris DiStefano
By the way, I found out 75% of the time when he says that he's lying, Right? I. The AI guy told me that.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, Alex, all of her answers are in.
Alex
That story belongs to Dan Soda.
Dan Soder
Fuck. You are a tickle monster.
Big J Okerson
Drinking Dan. Turns out I'm a drunk tickler.
Louis J. Gomez
You see, I was concerned about Dan's alcoholism, and that's how I knew that.
Tim Dillon
That's crazy.
Dan Soder
The truth is, this was after I quit drinking.
Louis J. Gomez
Oh, really?
Big J Okerson
That's crazy.
Chris DiStefano
Then you just like to tickle crazy.
Dan Soder
I don't know. I like to bring joy to people. I was at a bar show in Brooklyn and Billy Wayne Davis, we were both on whiplash at UCB that night. It was like a Monday. And I was at like, Che and Dimesh's show in Brooklyn, and I see a guy in the back. I'm like, oh, it's Billy Wayne. And I just walked in. So I went through the crowd. This is what makes it worse.
Chris DiStefano
Can I say something? A person who you think could be a person named Billy Wayne when it's not the right person is a person you shouldn't tickle from behind.
Dan Soder
Well, I took a shot at love Jay.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah, you want to accidentally tickle like a Tyler.
Dan Soder
Yeah. But as I went through the crowd and I got closer to him, I started going tick or tick or tick.
Chris DiStefano

Story number eight. I tried to kiss someone on a roller coaster and went in at the wrong moment. We hit a bump and accidentally butted heads, breaking their nose.
Dan Soder
Everyone's gonna say me. I promise you it isn't because that bitch would have been dead.
Louis J. Gomez
No, that also says, seems like some dirty New Jersey close to Philly. Six Flags. Big J would do.
Dan Soder
It's not even a roller coaster. It's just a shopping cart on top of a car.
Chris DiStefano
Exit 7A off the turnpike. Dude, Six Flags. Great.
Louis J. Gomez
That sounds like someone from Delco county would do that.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, but Jay.
Dan Soder
That's how me and your dad met.
Big J Okerson
Jay when he was younger had no game. He was afraid of women.
Chris DiStefano
Wow.
Louis J. Gomez
Okay.
Chris DiStefano
Afraid's the wrong way to put it. That's mean. Now I think it's you, you piece of.
Big J Okerson
I always had game.
Chris DiStefano
Yeah.
Dan Soder
Ah, this feels.
Big J Okerson
It says their nose. So it could be Tim, because he could have just changed it from.
Tim Dillon
People don't go on roller coasters. What are you talking about?
Dan Soder
Yeah, they go into the rest stops off the highway. Yeah.
Tim Dillon
Who's got a roller coaster?
Chris DiStefano
Can't cruise a craziest thing ever.
Louis J. Gomez
Yeah.
Tim Dillon
Hey, how about you suck a dick while we're going like this?
Dan Soder
Right? Crazy.
Tim Dillon
What are you trying to get such insane thing?
Dan Soder
Trying to get your dick bit off? This is a Chrissy D story.
Big J Okerson
No.
Louis J. Gomez
Well, you know what? It could be Dan, because Dan's got a look at his head.
Dan Soder
I'm telling you right now, that's a.
Louis J. Gomez
Head that would break.
Dan Soder
This story would have started. I turned a girl. Quadriplegic.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Louis J. Gomez
I Decapitated a girl on the road.
Dan Soder
I snapped her spine like you on a roller coaster.
Chris DiStefano
It's like a final destination.
Tim Dillon
Yeah, yeah.
Dan Soder
I legally really can't ride roller coasters with his head.
Tim Dillon
We hit a bike. I honestly think it's accidentally butted heads breaking.
Big J Okerson
It's Chrissy D. This sounds like a Chris Ed. So Chris said, game always, always a good looking dude.
Dan Soder

It was like a lap bar, right? It wasn't so I. We could move. So I said, I'm just going to go in and kiss her because it was beautiful. Like at the top. It was like twilight. And I was going to. My plan was I was like, hey, look over. Look at this beautiful sky. And so my plane was like, oh, look over. The sky is gorgeous. And she went to like, look. And then I turned to kiss her and the roller coaster started descending. And it hit. Cause it's wooden. It hit like a piece and my head just slammed to her head and she literally covered in blood. And then the ride is going, you know, 80 miles an hour. My friends behind me were all getting sprayed with blood.
