Robert Kelly
Okerson and Robert Kelly. You really do know when to start this show. You know what?
Big J
Yeah, I've.
Robert Kelly
I've. I've had a thing. People don't know that the music starts and Lou waits for you to put those headphones on. And for a long time I was like, what's going on? You know what? You know when to start the show in the song. You really know. I would have started 30 seconds ago.
Big J
Could have started six minutes ago and it would have been okay. But you gotta let the people enjoy what's happening.
Robert Kelly
You gotta let them build.
Big J
Well, once that starts, somebody out there is in a cool situation right now fighting a California fire. Yeah, it's very dark, apocalyptic happening around them.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
Maybe they're listening to us in Australia where it's nighttime right now.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. Maybe somebody's on the subway about to push somebody on a train.
Big J
Maybe someone's gonna push somebody on a train. Absolutely. Maybe someone's listening to us while they're thinking about jumping off of a building.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
And this song is too dramatic to just stop in the very beginning. You gotta let them get through the whole mood of it first. And then we pop in, hey, this is bonfire and Bobby and Jay.
Robert Kelly
And then we're in.
Big J
And then we're in. You know, just like that.
Robert Kelly
I'll never doubt it again, my friend. I'll never Doubt it again.
Big J
Well, when you pick. And you should pick songs to start the show.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
When we come back from the first break, I'll pick the song, you pick the song, and then you know where to start it.
Robert Kelly
Great. Perfect.
Big J
Cuz you feeling it at that point, you go, this is the song I want to hear for this reason. And when we get to that part, will thump in any song. Any song you want.
Robert Kelly
All right.
Big J
And you got to know when to thump into it.
Robert Kelly
Gotta know when to thump in. That's a thing.
Big J
But you couldn't have gotten started the show without getting to, like, the heavy part of the song. Turn it up, Blue. It's coming again. I've never felt the emotions this guy sings about. Damn, dude. That's because you don't leave everything we know and just start over. Let's be badasses.
Robert Kelly
You should go to therapy. And then you'll feel these emotions.
Big J
What?
Robert Kelly
What?
Big J
I've been going to therapy to feel this.
Robert Kelly
I feel these emotions every day. No, I feel it now.
Big J
You need darkness, dude. In darkness, I have darkness. This is my shower song today. I almost punched myself in the face in the shower, in the dark. So hyped up.
Robert Kelly
That's because you couldn't see anything.
Big J
I couldn't see myself. I was trying to shadow box, but I'm my own shadow in the dark. Ow. Oh, that's me.
Christine
This motherfucker's 12 minutes long.
Big J
Yeah, I'm sorry. We won't talk again until it's done.
Robert Kelly
Great band.
Big J
Tool does rule.
Robert Kelly
He's a great. He's just great. Does he sing the same, though? Does he?
Big J
I think so. He catches some saying he can't really hit it anymore. And maybe there's some, like, help. I don't know. But, like, his voice sounds. I mean, he talks most of the songs, but there are songs where he has to sing and hit some high screams where I don't know if he can anymore, maybe. But he always sounds great to me.
Robert Kelly
He's. It's one of my favorite YouTube videos. Is him singing sober in that onesie.
Big J
Yeah, it's like a daytime, right?
Robert Kelly
Daytime. But he's. You know, when a lead singer is into it, it's disgusting.
Big J
Well, he's always like. That's what I've always been kind of cool about him. Like, the way he dances to the music and stuff is very, like. It's very private, very tribal.
Robert Kelly
I feel like he's looking at one person.
Big J
Took Jacob to see Tool right before COVID Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Do you like it?
Jacob
I loved It.
Robert Kelly
He did.
Big J
Jacob was.
Jacob
Loved it.
Big J
It was Jacob's first experience of being recognized a lot too. I was like, yeah, dude. Like fans of ours are at these kind of shows. And Jacob was outside. People were yelling, Jacob. They were all excited for him.
Robert Kelly
Were you excited? Did that make you excited?
Jacob
I was also. I was also chill because I took a little acid. No, it was a blue pill. What the hell?
Big J
Oh yeah. Oxycontin.
Robert Kelly
What?
Christine
Yeah, a few years ago.
Jacob
Bobby, I don't.
Robert Kelly
What?
Jacob
I don't like the. I don't like the light stuff.
Big J
We were gonna. We tried to get. We wanted to get him take Molly with us, but he wouldn't, so he took, you know, painkillers instead.
Robert Kelly
You don't want Jacob on Molly.
Big J
I would have loved Jacob.
Robert Kelly
You don't want his emotions coming out.
Big J
Are you kidding? Would have been having a lovable. Having a lovable pet.
Robert Kelly
You don't want all those female soccer emotions coming out.
Big J
You're wrong about that. I do want that. I wanted to cry for eight hours. I wanted to cry with Jacob that night. I don't know. It doesn't. I said, Krist, Athena will tell you this too. I don't know why these things don't hit me as hard. It turns out not as big a major decision to do them as it is for some people because you're not.
Robert Kelly
Connected to your emotions. Possible you need to go to therapy and you'll enjoy your drugs more.
Big J
If DMT didn't work on me, that's gotta mean something.
Paco
I think.
Big J
I think my meds.
Paco
I think Lexapro blocks this stuff.
Big J
Yeah. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Oh, you take Lexapro?
Big J
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
What does Lexapro do?
Paco
Blocks everything.
Robert Kelly
Love.
Big J
No. Made me. When I'm hit.
Robert Kelly
Christine.
Big J
No. When I'm off it, I just get like. I'll get genuine, like panicky, like things that I. I'm far more aware of them now of what they are. I don't get as panicked anymore, but like, I just get that kind of like nervous, like something bad's happening right now. Inexplicable. 2010, it was really, really bad. And that's when I got on Lexapro. And I really haven't had a problem with it since, but I've taken myself off of it and I've gotten like. Forget the emotional. Like I'm having a heart attack. I know that's kind of not what's happening, but I'll still get like glassy vision and stuff.
Robert Kelly
And like if you're off it, if.
Big J
I guess if I get to Something where my body's, like, getting in the panicky. I guess, for whatever reason, I never took anything.
Robert Kelly
I. I mean, I probably should have taken something at some point. What are you shaking your head for, Paco? Go yourself. You're annoying. That's why. That's why I treat you the way I treat you. A bug, everybody. There's nothing to do with me.
Big J
That's all.
Robert Kelly
You know when people blame you for being an asshole, Bobby, you are a little quick trigger.
Big J
Furious. He goes, yeah, you make me furious.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, you douche.
Big J
You know, I took that, so that's what it will do. But maybe it's because of that, because I don't not feel the DMT was crazy, because I felt nothing.
Robert Kelly
DMT is what it was like.
Big J
Nothing. It's still. It's the liquid your brain secretes when you die.
Robert Kelly
Why would you. First of all, who'd you get that from?
Big J
Lewis?
Robert Kelly
What hooker did he get it from? Maybe all these girls he's dating are girls that have been murdered for dmt.
Big J
It's a strong psychedelic drug, which may. I think it's. It may have changed Christine forever for the worse.
Paco
Yeah, I really had a hard time with it, as they call it. Blasted off.
Big J
Yeah, Christine was.
Robert Kelly
Is that when she called me?
Big J
No, no, that was the residual effects, I believe.
Robert Kelly
Dawn woke me up. Christine's still on the phone.
Big J
Still talk. I was like, but, yeah, that may have contributed to that pretty heavily, but it did not do anything to me. Nothing. I didn't even get. I didn't even have, like, a little something. And it's only 10 minutes, but it did.
Robert Kelly
Wait a minute.
Big J
Zero.
Robert Kelly
The high only lasts for 10 minutes.
Paco
It feels like an eternity.
Robert Kelly
Jesus Christ.
Big J
But Lewis got me to do it, to try, because what happened was Christine did it. She came out in four minutes, pretty sad, pretty crying and saying she wasn't enjoying what she was seeing at all. And then. And she goes, I don't know. And I feel like it's not gonna end. And then I told her, I go, all right, well, it's only gonna be like. Like six more minutes. It's only been four minutes. And when she. The way she looked at me when I told her it's only been four minutes, she was like, I've lived three lifetimes. So while she's going through her thing, I'm saying over her head to Lewis, I go, I'm not doing this. Like, I'm not doing it.
Robert Kelly
So funny, you know, Christine, do it first. And you're like, yeah, I'm good. She's like the guinea pig. Sure, give it her first. We'll see what happens.
Big J
Far more experience with drugs, probably Christine. So I was, yeah, but. So I was like, I'm not doing it. And then Christine, when she. Because then like seven minutes later, she was just like, that was crazy. Like, she wasn't like, there's no residual, like you're wobbly. She was just like, oh, I guess that's what DMT is. Like, holy shit. Wow, that was nuts. And then I go, yeah, I don't think I'm gonna do it. And then she knew. She already hated it. She knew she hated it, but she goes like this. She goes, no, no, no, no, you should do it. You should do it. I go, I go, I don't know, I think maybe if it wouldn't be good for me, if that's how you handle it. She goes, no, no, no, you'll be fine. It's fine. It wasn't that bad. And then after I did it and it didn't work, then she was like, that was the greatest nightmare I've ever experienced. Day was night, night was day. I don't know what was happening. And I was so scared. And she sent me right into it.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, but that's what drug addicts do. They go, no, it's good. You should try it. Be in hell with me so I'm not alone. It's not like it's.
Big J
But she was already out of hell.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I know, but she needed you to go there too.
Big J
She wouldn't experience hell.
Robert Kelly
That's pretty much what drug addicts, that's their movie.
Paco
Okay, Bobby, sharing drugs is no drug addict.
Big J
Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. They're probably like, nah, it sucks. You wouldn't even like it and keep it for yourself.
Jacob
Try oxy.
Robert Kelly
I did.
Jacob
It's the best.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I did it when I was 13.
Jacob
All right, but you haven't done it in a while.
Big J
It's new. It's better now.
Robert Kelly
I used to snow it. I mean, don't I remember? I got oxy. We stole it off this kid's mom and we, we put it on a shingle, crush it up on a shingle like idiots. And then we had to lick the shingle because most of it was just embedded in the shingle.
Big J
Classic.
Robert Kelly
I'm just licking a shingle as a 13 year old.
Big J
Classic.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I used to do a lot of fucking. I love pills.
Big J
Back in the day, pills rule.
Robert Kelly
I love drinking the most because it was like an all day thing. You could Just get a thing of ice, put it in a barrel, sit by a track, and fucking drink. But popping a pill was great. Snorting a pill is great. We used to snort the pills.
Big J
I feel like, officially used barrel for too many things.
Robert Kelly
Barrel. It's a fucking barrel.
Big J
An actual barrel.
Robert Kelly
This time it was an actual. Yeah, like a barrel.
Big J
Okay.
Robert Kelly
Like a metal barrel. Like, you know, the big metal barrels.
Big J
Tub.
Robert Kelly
You know, they put oil in tub. That's a barrel. That's not a tub. A tub is. Yeah, that's a barrel.
Big J
Oh, that's a drum.
Robert Kelly
Well, that's not a drum. If I said drum, you'd be like, good drums. I said barrel. That's more. If I said that's.
Big J
That's a barrel, but that's what it was. A steel barrel.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. Like by the tracks. We always get, like, one of these steel barrels, and we'd fill it with wood and whatever we found, and we'd light on fire and hang right by the tracks. That's what we used to drink under a bridge by the tracks. Because when the cops came, they couldn't just get to you. They had to come down where you get in and then come up. So we'd always see them and then we could run.
Jacob
Yeah. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
We used to hang out on.
Big J
But you've never done oxy with Jacob.
Robert Kelly
No, I've never done anything with any of you people in the room because I've been sober for 38 years, unfortunately.
Jacob
I love taking oxy and then not having enough strength to get off my couch.
Big J
Yeah, it's great, right?
Robert Kelly
If you did Molly with Jacob, you wake up on a bench, you'd be curled up like a shih Tzu under your stomach.
Big J
I love Christine.
Robert Kelly
Did not enjoy tits.
Big J
Christine. One of her least favorite tools was the one on Molly. She did not like it, but she said it was too much Molly, not enough concert. I was dialed in.
Robert Kelly
What does Molly do again? Make you just happy?
Big J
Yeah, super happy. You want to call a lot of people and tell them how great they are. You're all consumed by love, but why.
Robert Kelly
Wouldn'T you want to do that?
Big J
The best thing was Justin Silver, because what I also focused on for many times when he went a row in front of us to be with other muscly guys, and then just. And then just got down to his tank top, and then he just does one dance. He holds his dick and points his finger forward and just does this over and over again for every song, every beat, no matter the tempo, Dick grab, tank top. Fucking just plays it out, dude.
Robert Kelly
Surprising. I thought like if he did Molly, he would just become straight. Like he'd go the opposite way.
Big J
It's a wacky night. Corinne Fisher thought she was talking to Justin's dog who was passing away. Yeah, she was like. Started crying. She's like, he's talking to me.
Jacob
Jay's right. I mean Justin lest you know, he feels the beat.
Big J
Well, because he wants you to know.
Jacob
Full 360 degree.
Big J
I had to put. When we saw Tool. I was on the end when we saw him in Philly. And I shuffled because what it was. I saw this coming a mile away. It was me, Christine Fenoa, Justin. And I was like 10 minutes into this concert when it starts, Fenoy is going to be like annoyed looking at me and going like, is this motherfucker. Is this the whole show? So I was like, justin, actually come over here on the end. I put him on the end. He's in to really give him a wide berth so he could fucking dick grab and fucking throw that finger down.
Robert Kelly
He's like that guy at the Stones concert that was dancing the whole fucking concert.
Paco
Oh yeah, the aisle.
Robert Kelly
He needs the aisle.
Big J
Justin.
Robert Kelly
He's an aisle fag.
Paco
He took up all the space.
Big J
Turn it up, dude.
Robert Kelly
I mean, dancing at a concert, you're either gonna kind of keep it. I keep it. I'm into it. But I am aware I'm. I'm doing what.
Big J
What concert do you accept? What concert you dance?
Robert Kelly
I don't know.
Big J
Billy Joel Acceptable.
Paco
Coldplay.
Robert Kelly
I don't Billy Joel. I don't really. I mean Billy Joe play.
Big J
I say, I would say is acceptable.
Robert Kelly
Billy Joel is a sit concert from a lot of it. You know what I mean? I mean, Bon Jovi. I was up the whole time.
Big J
I don't know if it's a dance.
Robert Kelly
Concert, not a dance.
Big J
It's a stand up.
Robert Kelly
Tell you what's not a dance concert. The Cure holy. I mean suicide concert.
Big J
That was a. That was a hold your elbow with your opposite arm and look at the ground concert.
Robert Kelly
It really was I'm cold concert. The whole show.
Big J
Yeah, that's. That's how I have to cut myself to feel.
Robert Kelly
Christ, do I could. If I could go back in time, I would do that.
Big J
Hey, poke that fat girl holding her elbow with a knife. Is she alive? I don't know. She didn't do anything when I did it.
Robert Kelly
I've never seen Max sad except there and when we didn't get in the snake pit.
Big J
Yeah. Those are two defining moments in his life.
Paco
Justin Timberlake Was a super dance.
Robert Kelly
I mean, I would. I would dance at that.
Big J
Sure. All day long. All day long.
Robert Kelly
In sync.
Big J
Madonna, you could dance.
Robert Kelly
Backstreet Boys. Backstreet Boys. Oh, Backstreet. All right. I would dance at that.
Big J
Not as a man, you don't.
Robert Kelly
Well, as a confident man.
Big J
No.
Robert Kelly
Game off.
Big J
You could dance as a man a little bit. You could dance as a man a little bit to Justin Timberlake for sure. You can't dance to a man to not one boy band song. Can you dance like a man to not one.
Robert Kelly
Are you crazy?
Big J
I'm not crazy. No, no. I'm not saying. Okay, what you're doing is uncomfortable for everybody. Is that what you would do? I'd get. I'd get an usher to check on you.
Robert Kelly
You put me in the aisle.
Big J
I'd be. I'd be like, usher? I think something's happening to the man next to me.
Robert Kelly
Right here. Right here. This is my. I'm. I'm just feeling this.
Big J
By the way, you're being terrible to your neighbors. What you're saying right now, everything is everything. Are you out of your mind? Everything's been jetting out. Mostly you're commercials.
Robert Kelly
Hopefully they'll be jetting that way too. When they go that way, I go this way.
Big J
So now you're in a choreographed routine with everybody in the audience. I don't know where lou got the 12 inch remix. Over here. Bobby said this song was going to start 11 times.
Jacob
Bobby, you are taking a wide burst.
Robert Kelly
Now.
Big J
You've changed. You've changed tempos in your own dance. Feel it. Bobby's point up to the sky. He's feeling the soul. The soul of the boy is creeping into him. The soul of the boy. Bobby, you'd be physically removed because of what the problem that you've caused for the aisle you're in.
Robert Kelly
And then I bring it all in. I'd only be. I'd only be wide at the beginning.
Big J
Dude, you're gonna get jumped by a bunch of 45 year old wet fat women, dude.
Robert Kelly
NSync, come on.
Big J
No.
Robert Kelly
Kelly Clarkson. I'd lose my.
Big J
You're gonna dance to. Since you've been gone. You're gonna dance, dude.
Robert Kelly
Since you've been gone. But the Christmas song, I mean, come on.
Big J
But I'm talking about dancing. I. Hand in pocket if you're calling that kind of dancing. I do that at a lot of concerts. Really? Cutting loose and dancing. I can't think of a concert.
Paco
I don't think you've ever danced. Have you ever cut loose and danced ever in your life.
Robert Kelly
Hang on. We're not done laughing.
Big J
Of course I have.
Robert Kelly
You've never cut loose?
Big J
No. No. The question she should have asked was, jay, have I ever seen you cut loose dancing?
Robert Kelly
When have you cut loose dancing?
Big J
Almost 100% of my hotel rooms before I get dressed.
Paco
We're talking about, like, a club or a concert or in public.
Robert Kelly
I know in public it's hard to dance. I get insecure with it, too.
Big J
But I got amazing rhythm.
Robert Kelly
I've done it.
Paco
I've seen your isolated dancing buddy in your room.
Robert Kelly
Alone is fine.
Big J
But what I'm doing in that. What I'm doing in that room would get me pussy in a club.
Robert Kelly
The gayest time. The gayest time I ever did was in Amsterdam with Patrice. We went to a black club, a dance club. And I remember he started. He started dancing, so I started dancing with him. So it was just me dancing with each other, me and Patrice just grooving it. And I was like, fuck it, let's go. And then we. I went to another club in Amsterdam, too, and it was a dance club with. Do you remember T. Rex?
Big J
Why do you dancing with men so much?
Robert Kelly
I don't know, dude.
Big J
T. Rex from DC I used to.
Robert Kelly
Dance at the AA dances, too. When I used to. When I first got sober. We go to the AA dances. I would dance my ass off.
Big J
I was terrified when I was young in school dances. So I only slow danced in school dances. Also. This was a time when I was growing up. It was a time where dancing was as valuable in school as being tough.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
As far as being popular and getting, like, chicks. Yeah. Grease dancing was as popular as being tough. Like, you'd get the same kind of love. So I really wasn't pulling it out because there was guys doing the fucking splits and real, like, jump over their legs, like kid and play stuff that I was like, there's no way I'm pulling that off at all. So I tucked my down away. All these years, I tucked it away and now. But I'm telling you, in hotel rooms, I explode. And I'm not saying. I'm not saying it could win a contest. I'm telling you, it's good. If I went on Dancing with the Stars, they'd be like, okay, all right.
Robert Kelly
Jay, buddy, let me tell you, we should go dancing one night.
Big J
No.
Robert Kelly
Why we. All we have to do is take that cork out of the bottle and let those little effervescence pop out.
Big J
Because the things I want to do that I'm doing in A hotel. I want you to understand.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
Take up a little bit of space.
Robert Kelly
So what, we can clear that floor like John Travolta Delta.
Jacob
We go to a disco, buddy.
Robert Kelly
We go to it.
Big J
Guys, I love what you're saying right now.
Robert Kelly
Let's go dancing, man. Let's dance, buddy. I have to tell you what. I used to go to the seventh grade dance. I got some moves they used to have at St. Mary's the seventh grade dance. And I used to go and sneak in, and Carol. Carol Coughlin was her name. Blonde. I was in love with her. Love with her. And she was there. And I had cigarettes, smoking cigarettes. And I. I was dancing. I was, you know, trying to get her attention, and I was dancing so good that I got her attention. And she was like, hey, she. I think she said good moves or something like that. And she.
Big J
Bobby.
Robert Kelly
She complimented me somehow. She complimented me. Had. Somehow. Because she talked to me. She never talked to me, right? And because we got into a thing years before, we did a show in Towel in a Bush, and she got me to show my bum, and she didn't show hers. And then they left, and I got mad.
Big J
We're going to show each other your asses.
Robert Kelly
We do. We're kids. We're little kids. We didn't, you know, we didn't have pubes. I don't even know, right?
Big J
Still. Hey, want to compare butts?
Robert Kelly
So she actually talked to me. I was so excited. And I had a pack of cigarettes. I took a cigarette. She goes, can I get a cigarette? And I. I'll. This is the worst thing I've ever done. I went like this. I went, sure. And I took a cigarette out of my pack and I went, yeah. And I wormed it to her. I wormed it to her and she went, thanks. And then just walked away and never talked to me again.
Big J
That's brutal.
Robert Kelly
Sometimes dance can go. You can go too far. You have to know the limits.
Big J
No, I told you. I danced with my high school crush. And she was very purposefully doing a fucking rhythm that was a little too complex for the nerve level I had right there. I wish I could go back in time. It's the easiest thing in the world to do with the natural given rhythm that I have. I was frozen in the moment.
Robert Kelly
But we don't know that, dude. What song could you dance to right now?
Paco
Now.
Big J
So many.
Robert Kelly
Name one.
Big J
I don't know.
Paco
Do Electric Feeling. Gmt.
Big J
I'm not doing anything.
Robert Kelly
Why? Just show us. I just showed you. First of all, I.
Big J
What you did. Was absolutely silly.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, and it was dance.
Big J
Okay, you want me to sit here and flat my arms around like a bird trying to get oil off of it?
Robert Kelly
Dude, first of all, my dance.
Big J
I'm sorry I assaulted you. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to insult you. I'm. I'm lashing out because I don't want to dance.
Paco
Jay, you know you want to dance to the song.
Robert Kelly
Come on.
Big J
I don't.
Paco
Yeah, you do.
Big J
This isn't what would get me to move.
Robert Kelly
What would get you to move?
Big J
Nothing.
Robert Kelly
What would get you to move?
Big J
Just.
Robert Kelly
I just want to hear the song. You don't have to do it. What song would get you to move?
Paco
I know you like to move your body.
Big J
She does know I like to move my body.
Jacob
What do you listen to in your hotel room?
Big J
Depends on the day.
Jacob
Okay. You're in your hotel room right now.
Paco
She's so shy.
Big J
You mean he's so shy.
Paco
Is that right? He's so shy.
Big J
Heathrow shy is pretty great by Pointer Sisters, but that's dancing a little sillier. Yeah, still good. Still full of rhythm, but.
Robert Kelly
Oh, come on.
Big J
But this isn't what I mean, though. Yeah, yeah.
Robert Kelly
That's. That. That's this. That's a little body.
Big J
I'm probably throwing a little more hip into it when I do it. Maybe some more leg even, too.
Robert Kelly
What you do a little spin, but.
Big J
I'm in the shower.
Robert Kelly
What size shower do you have that you can dance around?
Big J
Hotel showers. No, my hotel, too. In my. In my house shower, I. The dance I do the most is a Scott Weiland. Hands bend at the wrist, behind the back, and maybe like a little, like a very snakey kind of thing.
Robert Kelly
Christine. If I buy a hidden camera that he can't see, I'll kill you both.
Big J
Don't film me in my most vulnerable.
Robert Kelly
Listen to me, Christine. Ah.
Paco
I threatened him that one day I'm just gonna come in, like, over the shower curtain and take pictures.
Robert Kelly
That's why he does it in the dark, so we can't get.
Big J
Did we lose my song?
Robert Kelly
What is. What is the song like? All right. You know the opening of Deadpool 3 for sure with Wolverine when you. The opening. What's that? That's back. Bye Bye bye. Is that in sync? Right? All right, that song. I can't not feel that song. I can't. When he did that dance, I can't not kind of do the Bye Bye. I mean, it's a fucking. You can't. How do you not dance to that? Song.
Big J
Well, I'm not a female child.
Robert Kelly
Okay, but that's a good point.
Big J
They. Bye bye bye. It's not happening for my. The song. It's more in the line of, like, give me the night. George Benson. Get lucky Daft Punk with Pharrell. That's a good one.
Robert Kelly
Oh, how about little Bruno Mars? What's that crazy Uptown Funko?
Big J
Nope.
Robert Kelly
No. Yeah. So all your dance moves are all in turn?
Big J
No, it's in here. No, but I'm not living out loud like the fucking. My room at a Marriott courtyard somewhere.
Robert Kelly
But what, like, what is a move that like.
Big J
I don't know, man.
Robert Kelly
Can you do me a favor and just stand up?
Big J
Nope.
Robert Kelly
Stand up. Just feel the ground.
Paco
How embarrassed he is.
Robert Kelly
Why? Why?
Big J
I'm not embarrassed. I don't care.
Robert Kelly
You're in a safe spot, dude.
Paco
Jay, we know you have magnificent rhythm.
Robert Kelly
I just want to see.
Big J
Shut the fuck up. Christine can't wait to fucking hang me out to dry. Christine's trying to set me up because I said this, and I mean this. From the guts. I could definitely dance better than Christine.
Robert Kelly
No fucking way.
Big J
From soup to nuts. Whole thing, dude. Better than her.
Robert Kelly
Is that true?
Paco
There's only one way to figure this out.
Robert Kelly
That's a challenge. That's a fucking challenge.
Paco
No, I was gonna say we have to learn the same routine.
Big J
Christine. Even if we do a routine, Christine is a freeze up performer. Me watching her particularly. She will freeze up. We first started dating, she was in a musical, like a dancing and singing musical. And I was. I was like, when's the thing I want to come? And she just kept pushing it off. He's like, this isn't a good one to come to. Until it was over, she didn't want me to see her sing and dance because she thought I would have made fun of her. I would have.
Robert Kelly
I bet when Christine dances, she's a. She's a lip biter. Maybe she's a snapper.
Big J
I don't know. You know why? Because Christine doesn't dance in front of me either.
Robert Kelly
Never. You don't dance in front of me.
Paco
It's a Coldplay. You didn't dance. It was a perfect dance.
Big J
Okay, this is not dancing, first of all, Coldplay. She just put her arms up in the air and cheered. What she did dance at, we all remember. Some of those who work forces are the same that burn crosses. When she went to Rage against the.
Paco
Machine, he's afraid somebody's gonna do to him what he's doing to me. So he won't dance.
Robert Kelly
I just want to say something. When you do that, the forces to the crosses. I get sick in my chest. It makes me sick in my chest right here, right below whatever this thing is right here. That bone where you're supposed to like, bring people back to life. It makes me sick right there.
Big J
Well, the bummer was I made fun of her first night for it. So when we went to go see him again, she didn't do it.
Robert Kelly
God damn it.
Big J
I had to do it.
Robert Kelly
Dawn dances all the time. And she came out the other day. It kind of got me going. She came out in just panties and a T shirt. And she started dancing through the kitchen right early in the morning with her hair down because she looks like a lion now. It's so fucking big and fluffy. And she came out and just started dancing with a little tiny shovel butt. A little Asian boy ass. Fuck it. Fuck it. Loved it.
Big J
No, I got killer moves for sure. Can't do that split though.
Robert Kelly
Well, when I go to a wedding, I do. Something inside of me shuts down. Like I feel bad cuz Don want. I know Don wants to dance, but in front of family and friends, I can't dance.
Big J
Me either. And definitely listen, listen. You could listen.
Robert Kelly
What? What?
Jacob
I'll dance anywhere.
Paco
I have videos. Hang on.
Big J
Oh, yeah, Jacob. But the one, he takes it down.
Robert Kelly
Like Joe List dance too much. He get his wedding was. It was like, dude, you started dancing.
Big J
And I can only assume he looks ridiculous.
Robert Kelly
He looks. Well, you weren't invited.
Big J
No.
Robert Kelly
Really?
Big J
I don't think so. No, No.
Robert Kelly
I thought you were. Okay. Yeah.
Big J
Hey.
Robert Kelly
Him and his family danced the whole wedding to where they were sweating. That was like wild to me.
Big J
That's a lot also, when you're not very good dancers. Show it when you got it. Now I got it. I ain't showing it. But I will say at a wedding, the that's dancing is like that I will do. And people seen that plenty. The. The simple like the bopping, two step fucking. Not this. But at a wedding. I'm not at a black wedding at this one, but you know, a basic little two step bop. Yeah, for sure. I'm talking about dancing like what I don't understand.
Robert Kelly
Explain it to me or show me a deuce, like a little bit.
Big J
No, Paco. Paco used to be a dancer. Of course.
Robert Kelly
He's a Filipino boy. Of course that they're made to do that.
Big J
Paco can do all that. Like go up on his hand and grab his legs above his head.
Robert Kelly
They're made to do that and sing like every white rock band.
Big J
So that's the reason now I realized I'm not doing it because Paco will judge me and he can dance. I'm not gonna be judged by. I'm not gonna be judged by you assholes. Maybe when me and Paco get alone, two dancers, I'll. God, you're not Jay say that this week. And then next week, Paco comes in. You see that I'm throwing him back, flips off with my foot. He does a thing where he jumps, does the backflip, and then, oh, you.
Robert Kelly
Know you're not gonna do that to him.
Big J
And then I'm gonna do all his assistant stuff. Like he's gonna land in a split, and I'm gonna go grab his hoodie and act like I'm pulling him up when he comes up.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, you're the guy. Cheerleader.
Big J
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm gonna toss. I'm gonna toss Paco around. I'm gonna grab a lot. I'm a lot of hip touching.
Robert Kelly
What is this? Is this Jacob?
Paco
Jacob? Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Where is this at?
Jacob
Maral's wedding, My office.
Robert Kelly
Oh, my God.
Big J
Make a little love.
Jacob
By the way, my moves are even better now. I do the motorcycle still, but I've evolved.
Paco
Jacob looks like.
Jacob
That's right.
Robert Kelly
Jacob dances like a little kid in a way.
Jacob
It's not true.
Robert Kelly
It's like, let him go. Let him go.
Jacob
This is why.
Robert Kelly
Look at, look at, look at little Jacob go.
Jacob
This is why Jay won't dance in the room.
Big J
It is true.
Jacob
This is the reason I was attacked immediately for my moves.
Robert Kelly
Well, listen, your moves are basic. I'm going to say. No, they're not, dude.
Jacob
You guarantee I can better than you, Bob?
Robert Kelly
100%. Did you just see what I freestyled?
Big J
Yeah, we all saw it.
Robert Kelly
I felt that from my core, dude.
Big J
I bet $7,000 on Jacob.
Robert Kelly
7,000.
Big J
$7,000. Seven large on Jacob.
Jacob
Lewis and I danced at for the Vegas show.
Robert Kelly
That's unfair.
Jacob
What?
Robert Kelly
You have Lewis's.
Big J
Oh, he was carrying him.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, he was carrying you.
Jacob
We danced in unison.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, Lewis was throwing you jive, making you get some energy, man.
Jacob
I don't think so.
Robert Kelly
You're absorbing Lewis's soul.
Big J
He put his soul into you. Seven large on Jacob takes the dance battle.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I'll bet that seven large on Christine beating you.
Big J
There's not a chance.
Robert Kelly
100.
Big J
It's not a fucking chance.
Robert Kelly
Christine, you get that seven.
Big J
Listen, I'm gonna win from default. She's gonna quit. She's not gonna do it.
Robert Kelly
Is that true, Christine?
Paco
A freestyle dance off? Yeah. No, I won't do it.
Robert Kelly
All right. You get to wear whatever you want when you dance.
Paco
No.
Robert Kelly
No. Okay.
Big J

Big J
A choreographed dance routine. She's saying she. You will do that all of a sudden that you'll perform in front of people.
Paco
Do you want to take ballroom?
Big J
No. It's a battle. It's not us working in unison, but two hearts becoming one. Some beautiful, romantic. Yeah, this is a versus Jay versus Christine dance battle.
Robert Kelly
You're not at a Jewish camp in the summer.
Paco
No, we'll learn a routine together, and then people can judge who they believed more ridiculous.
Robert Kelly
No, no.
Big J
You're getting served or I ain't coming.
Robert Kelly
I tell you this, man, this is gonna be great too, because you're moving into a house and you're, You're. You say you're dancing in your bathroom, which is a tub. You're gonna go into a house with a like, no tub, right?
Big J
Well, there's a tub, but it's unattached to the shower.
Robert Kelly
Yes, but you have a.
Big J
Do you have a shower with full shower stalls?
Robert Kelly
Yeah, shower salt. No tub.
Big J
No tub.
Robert Kelly
No tub.
Big J
Oh, real dance room there, for sure.
Robert Kelly
Listen, my shower dude, me and you both could dance.
Big J
I'm concerned about you.
Robert Kelly
Understand what I'm saying? I made that shower for two dance to dance.
Big J
Yeah. And by the way, dancing on tiles is pretty great.
Robert Kelly
It's great.
Big J
It's pretty great dancing on tiles.
Robert Kelly
Dude. We should dance.
Big J
Paco, as a fellow dancer, what's your favorite. What's your favorite floor to dance on?
Amica Insurance Advertiser
I would say linoleum.
Big J
Linoleum. So I was going to say too.
Amica Insurance Advertiser
Cardboard is sick.
Big J
Cardboard does work pretty good as far as Poplar.
Robert Kelly
That's a different type of dance, though. That's break dancing.
Big J
Break dancing?
Robert Kelly
Yeah. We're talking dance.
Big J
Well, I like to walk in memory lane. Do you remember the time we tried to get DJ Lou to simply dance with his feet only shuffle dancing? And he panicked at the first count? He kicked one foot out and quit immediately. It's the fastest, funniest video I've ever seen in my life. Do we have that? Christine, buddy.
Robert Kelly
I don't. We gave him one line and a song for Christmas and he fucking failed.
Big J
I forgot how hard you whiffed that. Yeah, I mean, you're the only one who had a cue. You had a cue.
Christine
It was such a.
Robert Kelly
Such a long wait.
Christine
And I. I bugged out.
Robert Kelly
In both cases.
Christine
I had a little panic attack. Bobby, you up the song, too.
Robert Kelly
I did up the song because of you.
Christine
Because I threw you off.
Robert Kelly
You threw me off.
Christine
All right. That's. You're a selfish performer.
Big J
Guys, don't worry. I brought it up. I brought it all back with. With putting Christine's face in the glass. It unified the room.
Robert Kelly
It really did. Thank God you did that.
Big J
Much like me beating her in a dance battle would really unify the room. Christine, we could do this dance battle on the Gaza border and probably bring that. That whole thing that would end.
Paco
Paco, what do I have to Google to find videos of you dancing?
Amica Insurance Advertiser
Of me?
Paco
Yeah.
Big J
A Paco. Oh, there's some videos.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. What was your dance name?
Amica Insurance Advertiser
Yab. Oh, sorry. Yabe Yellow.
Robert Kelly
Yaba Yellow.
Big J
I knew it. Chinky Japs.
Robert Kelly
Why Yellow? I'm kidding. I.
Big J
Call him Volcano. Something Hawaiian.
Robert Kelly
What would your dance name be?
Big J
Big J.
Robert Kelly
Come on.
Big J
It's gonna be something cool. Big Jizzy.
Robert Kelly
He's got Yabe Yellow.
Big J
Big Jizzy.
Robert Kelly
Big Jizzy's good.
Big J
Yeah. Yahweh. Just God. Because you take the name of God and offend some people. I'll be Yahweh.
Robert Kelly
I'll be. I want to be Stinger K. Wow. You like that?
Big J
I like it. But you said it. You were asking us all the question. Because you've had this in your head for a while. Cause you just blurted out. You didn't even wait for us to go. Do you have one? Bobby, you would do and you didn't even do a thought. You go. What would your dance name be? Mine's would be Stinger. K.
Robert Kelly
I've had it since sixth grade.
Big J
Christine, taking advantage of having an Asian in house. Hey, Paco, while you're here, just fix this computer for me. Can you defragment this? Hey, you have a cousin somewhere overseas that could probably handle this.
Robert Kelly
Is this him?
Big J
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Wow. I mean, this is. This is break dancing.
Big J
O Paco, that's not me right now.
Robert Kelly
Oh, that's not him, you racist. That's just another Asian.
Big J
Okay, this is you then. This is you, Paco. But how are you dancing and everybody watching?
Robert Kelly
Wow. Oh, this explains your outfits.
Big J
Yeah, Paco, those jeans stretchy because.
Robert Kelly
Did you get those jeans off K. Simon?
Paco
What the.
Big J
Look at him go, huh?
Robert Kelly
He's pretty good. Dude, I gotta admit, whatever that thing was.
Big J
Ooh, drunken monkey. Oh, oh, cartwheel. Oh, that thing. Oh, elbow sit. Elbow sit again.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
Oh, back, back thing. Snap it. Pop, Push underneath. There he goes. Dick rub. What? Capri pants. Gay thing. Point of the guy.
Robert Kelly
Dude, that. That is. That is the gayest cluster of men I've ever seen.
Big J
I'm out of breath watching him. I mean, I'm out of breath.
Robert Kelly
Dude, that's in some high school gym. Yo, we rented the gym out tonight.
Big J
It was a little past high school.
Amica Insurance Advertiser
Community center.
Robert Kelly
Oh, yeah, Community cell the Philippines, which.
Big J
Is a Filipino community center.
Robert Kelly
School, the church and the police station.
Big J
The parents would make some sort of a seaweed soup while the kids would all break dance in the other room.
Robert Kelly
Oh, come get your spam.
Big J
Oh, time for seaweed soup.
Robert Kelly
That's like even too.
Christine
They try to save the community center with their dance.
Big J
God damn right, dude. Oh, now listen, I think we can get even Christine out of her shell to dance publicly if we could save a community center. Is there a dying community center in New York? Christine, see that? We could help out here. Paco will lead the charge. Just when we think that they hate us, we'll have Paco come headline.
Robert Kelly
We wouldn't save it. They'd actually rip it down faster.
Big J
No, I'm telling you, we could raise tens of thousands of dollars if we get DJ Lou doing a worm. You get DJ Lou doing a worm across the stage for sure. We will raise a lot of money.
Christine
I promise I won't bug out and panic.
Big J
Panic? Well, panic all you want. Just do it while you're worming. Nothing. You gotta remember there, it'll be me and Bobby yelling the word worm at you until you do it. Worm Lou Worm.
Robert Kelly
The video of him failing on the Christmas show is the greatest ever.
Big J
Did you find the other thing, Christine? You find him at the shuffle dance.
Robert Kelly
What was your line? But in the show, by the way.
Christine
I play the sound effects.
Big J
Yeah, that's it. I played the same. And he had a. And the song goes ting. Dan. It was. It was the only line that had a cue ready to go. And. And Lou just. And I just looked over and he was like this, staring straight, upper and bottom teeth exposed.
Christine
I heard the ting. I knew it was time to sing, but. But nothing was happening.
Jacob
I knew it was.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
Did the rehearsal.
Robert Kelly
Rehearsal.
Jacob
He wasn't getting it at the right.
Christine
I never once got it. I still didn't get it.
Robert Kelly
You got it. You got Emily, blunt mouth.
Jacob
Jay was patient. He wasn't getting it.
Christine
Everyone else had to follow somebody. I had to sit in silence and instrumental to that ting.
Big J
You waited for a ting.
Christine
It hypnotized me when it hit.
Big J
But then there was a ting. And you just sat there and we.
Robert Kelly
All looked at you and we were like, yeah, we knew it was gonna make it.
Big J
Seven heads looked left.
Robert Kelly
I was still looking at you when I missed my line.
Christine
Not one of you pointed at me.
Big J
No, I looked you and started singing the line with you. I did. I stage mommed you.
Christine
I did kind of get one word, Lou.
Big J
Doesn't matter. You make all up for it when we save the community center because of your worm. Individual. Your worm. Yeah. And we get to mean. We get to choreograph dance numbers. Christine, I'll ballroom dance with you to save the community center. But we break off from that ballroom dance at the end and it's verses.
Robert Kelly
And then I. I'll battle Jacob in freestyle.
Big J
You battle Jacob and freestyle.
Robert Kelly
Freestyle, sure. Freestyle.
Jacob
That's all I do.
Big J
Oh, my God, Bobby. He's making me so confident in the 7k I put down on him.
Robert Kelly
Dude, you don't know who I am, do you?
Jacob
No, you don't know who I am.
Robert Kelly
Jay knows who I am.
Big J
Stinger K. Stinger K. I'm not gonna with you. I'm not gonna lie to you, Christine. I'm betting on you, but I'm not gonna lie to you. You are with Stinger K. Google Stinger.
Robert Kelly
K. See what comes up. What if I was. What if I was a star in the Philippines?
Big J
Oh, so great. Dude, you're like, yeah, looking for Sugarman. Sugar. Searching for Sugarman. He's a dance star in Norway. The Kia Stinger. That's the thing you're talking about.
Robert Kelly
That's what I drive up in.
Big J
Kia Stinger. Stinger K's and a Case Stinger.
Jacob
I will says that you both said that you were confident slow dancers in total in school. Well, that was the one thing that I danced. Slow danced once with a girl in seventh grade and popped a full boner. It was the worst moment. It was so embarrassing.
Big J
No, I. I can say seventh grade.
Robert Kelly
Or seven months ago.
Jacob
Seventh grade.
Robert Kelly
Okay.
Big J
Yeah, in school I could slow dance well. But the it used to just be side to side thing for the longest. And then fucking Janessa Faragelli, dude, she threw fucking a one two, one one at me and it just fucked my night up. I was focused too much. I didn't say a word to her. I was staring at the side of her head while she talked to her friends. It was. I was not catching that one one.
Robert Kelly
What the fuck?
Big J
I wasn't catching the one one. I was one two. I'm like, what if it's every other and then it's this side this time and I'm overthinking it. And then it fucked up. Then I took a professional picture with another guy's girlfriend. Told people at my dad's house it was my girl girlfriend.
Robert Kelly
We all got to do what we got to do. We're all going to do what we got to do, kid.
Big J
Hey, man.
Robert Kelly
Is what it is. Yeah, man.
Big J
I'll tell the whole world that story and will not. Damn. I mean, it's my. Listen, we talk about this, Bobby.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
It's my dream for me, you and three other black guys to get on stage in white suits and do the new edition. If it isn't Love Dance from the Apollo. Yeah, it seems doable. It seems possible. I know with my gift of rhythm, I can handle it. I would worry about my partners being in concert with me.
Robert Kelly
You don't listen to me. I know you just saw my moves, but I want you to understand, bro, that was freestyle.
Big J
Yeah, yeah. No, I know. You get Stinger K in the studio for sure. No, you're gonna nail it.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, dude. Stinger K. I don't think Christine.
Big J
I don't know if Christine can nail her. I'm not saying she can't nail it. She does not perform.
Robert Kelly
I just think Christine has it in her, but she won't let it out.
Big J
Of her for sure.
Robert Kelly
I think she has it in her.
Big J
I think she's in it too. I just think she has it in her less than I do. I think I'm a better dancer.
Robert Kelly
I think she has it in it more than you. And that's why she's afraid of releasing it, because she might, in her late 30s, decide to have a career of dance and follow that passion. And she's afraid of that tsunami of. Of just emotion and creativity to come out of her. She's holding it back.
Big J
Christina, I would support you if you quit everything to go pursue dance. I'll support you anyway.
Robert Kelly
She's coming home every day, sweating with a bandana around her forehead all day.
Paco
I can finally pursue my lifelong dream of being a professional dancer.
Big J
Yeah. No, this is the right time now. Your bones are set now. No, it's good. Your bones are fully grown. Your soft spots grown over. You're ready to rock, girl.
Robert Kelly
Ooh, yeah.
Big J
Why does it hurt so bad? Make me feel so sad. I don't know what they're doing there.
Robert Kelly
You see the kids of the block are back. Back on tour and they're doing all their dance moves again. And it's pretty funny just to see Jordan Knight out of breath with his little belly popping out of his skinny jeans.
Big J
My boy.
Robert Kelly
I follow him on Instagram. It's my greatest thing ever. Just seeing him out of breath with his little. My little 50 pot belly coming out.
Big J
My boy. My boy. D Walls told me he's. It's keeping him in good shape, though.
Robert Kelly
Who?
Big J
Oh, Donnie Walpole. What do you call him? You weren't here. You told me at the end of the thing.
Robert Kelly
It makes me angry that, look, I'm friends with Jimbo.
Big J
I don't care that we're messaging. It's so what? So what? Me and him message on IG a little bit.
Robert Kelly

Robert Kelly
When he was on, did you mention me?
Big J
Yes.
Robert Kelly
And what did you say? How did you bring me up?
Big J
You had other stuff you had to do that morning.
Robert Kelly
No, no.
Big J
And I said, bum me up because my buddies and my partner on the show is a Boston guy too. And I said, he goes, who? I was like, could be Robert Kelly. And he was like.
Robert Kelly
And he went, what?
Big J
And then he, like, moved on quick from it.
Robert Kelly
But did you bring up other things?
Big J
Yeah. I was like, oh, if Bobby was here, he would probably know what you're talking about in this very Boston centric story. And you guys would probably bond so much. It's too bad that he had. And I think his quote was, anything else to do this morning.
Robert Kelly
Where was I?
Jacob
You were up in the mountains that we.
Big J
And everyone saw Lance Bass cross town.
Robert Kelly
No, where was I?
Jacob
You were Shooting your show, that, that Campy Talk.
Robert Kelly
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. What'd you call Campy Talk?
Big J
Yeah, the show that we don't. Which we do not speak.
Robert Kelly
It's not called Campy Talk.
Jacob

Robert Kelly
I mean, listen, I just got a phone call about it.
Big J
Well, whatever Norton saw in those woods.
Jacob
Man, it made him.
Big J
Made him quit SiriusXM radio.
Robert Kelly
Made Yamanika lose around 100.
Big J
He could drop to weight. Jim hasn't been the same ever since Bobby Lee's normal. Jim's wife goes, jim, you haven't slept in weeks. Jim, I noticed you haven't been sleeping. You've been sucking my Packer last Jamie Lee Curtis help me with my OOP sack. Yeah, she's Swedish, right? No, same thing though, right? Yeah, the same thing though. Someplace where Phil Collins likes to live, probably.
Robert Kelly
Wow.
Big J
Yes, Lou had it. Thank you so much. So this is a couple years back. We were going to do a shuffle dance. EDM shuffle dancing. If you could show Lou an example what EDM shuffle dancing is. Or show Bobby, rather. EDM shuffle dancing. It's just all foot motions that we were saying is pretty stupid. You know what it is, right? Paco, you're a fellow dancer. I know who if I'm explaining it to what you what it is.
Robert Kelly
I know Paco, I'm Stinger Paco, he.
Big J
Gets an ego when I try to tell him about dance stuff. Can you as a fellow dancer explain to him from what EDM shuffle dancing is? It's very simple.
Amica Insurance Advertiser
So shuffle dancing is where you aggressively stomp your feet in place, but you are sliding it from front to back so it looks like you're kind of moving fast but in place.
Big J
Yeah, so it's.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I do that on. I do that on water.
Big J
It's right here. Look, look. It's this dumb shit. Paco, can you do this? Because I'll tell you what. And this is embarrassing. I'm gonna tell you an embarrassing. I don't know why I haven't told this before though. It's pretty funny. If you look in my YouTube history through time, you will see there is. I've trying to find the best tutorial video to do and I have eight names for this. The Happy Feet. Some things call it the shuffle dance. So. But it's the something where you make your feet go and like they go out and into the other side. Was it Charleston? No, I don't think so. No, no, no, that's kid and play. Now this is Christine. Look Up Happy Feet. Dance, please. I want to do this so bad.
Robert Kelly
I can do this. No problem, dude. I've done this.
Big J
Oh, well, just so you know, we thought so. All of us can do it. And. And then, DJ Lou, we all gave it a little try, and then we said, hey, DJ Lou, would you give us. Give us a little show? Show us what the. What you're working with here.
Christine
See if you can pinpoint when the confidence leaves my body.
Big J
Yeah, this is great, Christine. Yeah, Go back to.
Christine
We even picked out a Pearl Jam.
Big J
Version we got from. Is this from the beginning? Okay, here we go. Ready on. Turn the volume up.
Christine
It is.
Robert Kelly
All right.
Big J
I don't know. That's the whole video. He takes one leap forward and he goes, I. I don't know. Quit. He put on sunglasses.
Robert Kelly
Wait a minute.
Big J
He prepared himself for the whole thing.
Robert Kelly
I think I missed it.
Big J
You did miss it.
Robert Kelly
No. Can you play it again, please?
Big J
Yeah, Hang on.
Robert Kelly
All right. I. What?
Big J
By the way, look how hard we're laughing. When it gets over to me, I'm hysterical.
Robert Kelly
What the.
Big J
What? Start from the beginning again. If you blink, you'll miss it. It's one of the best videos of all time.
Robert Kelly
I've never seen somebody's soul leave their body.
Big J
It's a.
Christine
It's a great first step, though. Come on.
Big J
I mean, God, Christ only knows what that was leading to.
Robert Kelly
His hands. Didn't know his feet gave up yet. Did you see that?
Big J
His hands. His mind was the first thing to give up.
Robert Kelly
His hands was like, oh, we're not doing this.
Big J
His mind was the first checkout. His. When he leaned forward, his mind went, I'm not doing any more than this. But his body was already moving that direction.
Robert Kelly
And then his feet were like, okay, we're not doing it. Then his hand was like, are we. You sure we're not doing.
Big J
This guy's good. I've watched this guy do it a lot, and he's doing what I'm talking about.
Robert Kelly
Paco, is that Dusty Slay?
Big J
Sort of. He shows you how to do it, and I'm telling you, I haven't even tried because I'm like, I'm gonna fucking fall in a hotel room like a dope. I'll do this in two seconds, okay? By all means, please. He's wearing pants like you, Bobby. God damn it. Christine. Yeah, that's. You're down one pivot. Now you're negative one pivot. You cut it off at my favorite shuffle part.
Paco
No, look, there's a search bar for some reason. Cover his feet. I was trying to get rid of that.
Robert Kelly
I can't believe she's terrified of the piven. And that's exactly where you want her to be?
Big J
Yes.
Robert Kelly
Did you hear her? She went, no.
Big J
No. Now watch when he does it. Now he's doing something.
Robert Kelly
Yes.
Big J
Does it look so simple?
Robert Kelly
I can do it.
Big J
No, you can't.
Robert Kelly
I'll do it right now.
Big J
You can't, though.
Robert Kelly
Out. Over.
Big J
Paco, you familiar with this?
Amica Insurance Advertiser
Not really, but it seems simple enough, doesn't it?
Big J
But he's showing you over and over.
Robert Kelly
It's heel up. That's it, dude.
Big J
Christine, how fast you think you figure that out? Show me one more time, Bobby.
Robert Kelly
Show me one more time.
Big J
You're gonna One more time.
Robert Kelly
Only don't call me Bobby.
Big J
Sorry. Stinger K. Hang on, hang on. You already don't know what he's done.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I do.
Paco
He's doing. He's going in and out, but then it switches to one in, one out.
Big J
That's not it, Bobby. You're breaking equipment it, Bobby. This is all rental stuff.
Robert Kelly
Doing it. Am I doing it?
Big J
You're not doing it.
Robert Kelly
You sure?
Big J
I'm certain.
Robert Kelly
Hang on, hang on.
Big J
You do that on a dance floor, though.
Jacob
He looked like a flacker girl from the 20s when he tried that.
Big J
Yeah. No, Bobby's definitely. Bobby's putting on the Ritz. I don't know what's going on over there. That's a whole different thing. Jacob. F I doing it.
Robert Kelly
Am I doing it?
Big J
Something? How I want to love you. How I want to love you. You made me love you. I didn't want to do it.
Robert Kelly
Fella. Go doing it.
Big J
And Paco, as two fellow dancers do. You igno. Get out of this, Christine. Go back to that. Do you agree? If you could, if you pull this off anywhere where you're dancing, people are going to be like, all right, I'd.
Jacob
Be happy with that. Yeah, a little bit.
Big J
Yeah, just a little bit.
Amica Insurance Advertiser
I would definitely say if you're more to the white side, you'd be very impressed.
Big J
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
So what is it? The heels go out. The heels.
Big J
I can't explain it. I could watch it a hundred times and not explain it to you.
Jacob
Again, he slow motions it, but then he doesn't do what he does in the slow motion.
Paco
He doesn't. Because what's happening is he's doing both at the same time, but then when he speeds it up, he's doing one in, one out. One in, one out.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Amica Insurance Advertiser
Healing toll at the same time, but the opposite feel. So Want his heel and his. Like, if his left heel.
Big J
Let me see how fast Paco can make it look pretty good. It's gonna infuriate me.
Amica Insurance Advertiser
So if his left heel is moving out, his right foot, toe is moving in at the same time, and then you switch and then you bounce.
Big J
That's sucker nailing it.
Robert Kelly
That was sick, actually.
Paco
That was actually so sick.
Robert Kelly
Hey, settle down. This is not the Philippines.
Big J
Where's the camera?
Robert Kelly
Give me the camera.
Big J
Paco, I'm filming you. Which one do I grab? Paco.
Robert Kelly
Nailed it.
Big J
Immediately.
Christine
I prefer a humble dancer, but that was great.
Robert Kelly
That was nuts.
Big J
Show him the move. He's got so fast.
Amica Insurance Advertiser
Oh, it's got a. You go fast.
Robert Kelly
I got it right here.
Big J
Nailed it.
Paco
I like queers.
Jacob
Look at his face. He looks straining so hard.
Robert Kelly
I'm worried about your face.
Big J
Bobby.
Jacob
Bobby, relax. Your face.
Big J
Bobby, calm down.
Robert Kelly
You look terrible. Did I do it? Did I do it?
Big J
No.
Jacob
You made everyone anxious with your terror face, Paco.
Big J
Yeah, I was worried. I was like, are you going down? Is he going. Is he losing consciousness?
Robert Kelly
I just want to say something. Something. I had the same feeling inside that he had.
Big J
You shouldn't have.
Robert Kelly
I did.
Big J
It looked way different, but you put a lot more effort in. You put a lot more effort in. Damn. Paco got that immediately.
Robert Kelly
He's Filipino.
Big J
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
They have gifts.
Big J
Yeah, they do.
Robert Kelly
They do. They can sing like anybody. They do awesome karaoke.
Big J
You could wheelbarrow your family behind you.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, they know how to.
Big J
Paco.
Robert Kelly
Wow. Yes.
Big J
Just got yourself a pivot, my man.
Robert Kelly
You're goddamn right, you're good.
Big J
You're goddamn right, you're good. Fuck, that was awesome. I was so proud of him. We have to take a break. We have one to two rad reads today.
Robert Kelly
I wish there was a. There's no try, Piven. There's no E for effort. Piven.
Big J
I'm gonna give you the loner.
Robert Kelly
I don't want the loner. That's Christine.
Big J
No, it's several people's.
Robert Kelly
It's hers. All right, listen, I'm not negative.
Paco
Right.
Robert Kelly
You are. You're negative. You're negative. One pivot. I shouldn't be negative now. You are for bringing that up.
Big J
Remember how excited I was to watch that shuffle dance? Then you flip to the next video. Remember when I lost my goddamn mind over that? She was trying down one Piven. She's negative. One pivot.
Robert Kelly
I want a real pivot. And I don't want the loaner picture.
Big J
Piven, state your case.
Robert Kelly
Listen, I thought I. I tried Maybe I didn't succeed, but I tried. Rocky.
Big J
You know what? The face for the content. The face alone.
Robert Kelly
A content piven.
Big J
That's a content pivot right there. God damn it. God effing damn it. You got it. Anything to retrieve that pivot for the.
Robert Kelly
Guy who throws the pivot. Maybe you should have a pivot taken away for your throws. What the is wrong with you?
Big J
Two days. Okay, that's fair. I'm negative. One pivot. That's fair. Because I tell you, it's two days in a row that I've whiffed that throw. And part of being the person who controls the pivins.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J
Is being able to send it. I should be able to send this around the cameras to you.
Robert Kelly
You should send it to Christine and have it come back her just missing it and then come back to you and catch it and go, no, not yet.
Big J
I'll learn that before Christine can beat me in a dance. Off.
