This prompts Jay to spring into action and assemble The Flames Of Justice! The Flames would be a vigilante group of just Jay and Bob, and will patrol the NYC subways to stop violent attacks. Jacob gets surprised by a rat while he was taking out the garbage and reacts in the most un-cowboy way possible. *To hear the full show to go www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more FOLLOW THE CREW ON SOCIAL MEDIA: @thebonfiresxm @louisjohnson @christinemevans @bigjayoakerson @robertkellylive @louwitzkee @jjbwolf

Listen, man, the song is.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, turn it up, Lou.
Robert Kelly
Turn it up. Don't say his name. Don't say his name. What's wrong with you, dude? Why would you say his name?
Big Jay Oakerson
Your dad never took the time.
Robert Kelly
No.
Big Jay Oakerson
Larry went out there with you?
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
Showed you how to throw a ball.
Robert Kelly
I just never got to say thanks. And I never got to asking questions about how to be a dad.
Big Jay Oakerson
Can I make you turn us up blue? Please?
Robert Kelly
Come on, man.
Big Jay Oakerson
I want you to know something.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. This is therapy day, dude. Even I just got out of therapy right now.
Big Jay Oakerson
I want you to know when he passed.
Robert Kelly
Oh, come on, don't.
Big Jay Oakerson
In his heart, he never knew how you felt because you didn't tell him. He thought as he laid there, he was like, maybe Bobby didn't appreciate how I stepped in, but, Lou, please, some volume.
Robert Kelly
And I wish I could have asked him questions on how to be a dad.
Big Jay Oakerson
I know he would have been like, give me a little reverb for my voice. I'm doing Larry right now. We're not live. I can't. Wow. Don't give your son his own floor of a house. I don't feel like buying all these bags. Seems pretty gay.
Robert Kelly
I love a sling bag.
Big Jay Oakerson
Weight loss surgery. What are you, a fanuk?
Robert Kelly
He'd be glad about that, that I'm around. Maybe if he did something, he'd still be around.
Big Jay Oakerson
Nice pants, Bobby. Do they sell men's clothes where you got.
Jacob
You?
Robert Kelly
Talk about that. Other partners with a guy who does his fingernails.
Big Jay Oakerson
Bobby, you rape a man like that in prison, you don't start a business with him.
Robert Kelly
God, he was so good yesterday.
Big Jay Oakerson
He was great.
Robert Kelly
He. I mean this.
Big Jay Oakerson
Well. Yesterday, two days ago.
Robert Kelly
Two days ago.
Big Jay Oakerson
If we're days. Terminator timelines.
Robert Kelly
Unbelievable. Now let me ask you a question.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
When he was coming in, you didn't know much about his music?
Big Jay Oakerson
Nope.
Robert Kelly
Now, after he got done playing this song.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
I mean, were you like, wow?
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, yeah. Well, yes. I bet he's got a song that can make me cry. The grief is all. There's nothing I have.
Robert Kelly
Like, because you're not connected to human beings.
Big Jay Oakerson
I'm connected very much to human beings.
Robert Kelly
If he did a song about dogs or cheesesteaks, can I tell you the problem? Cheesesteaks are old enough. It's got no place to go except my belly.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's called eating my feelings.
Robert Kelly
Ozempic to be in tears.
Big Jay Oakerson
Grief is only love. When you spike that needle into your belly.
Robert Kelly
If you did a song about a 30 inch waist, you'd be like, that's what I want.
Big Jay Oakerson
Food can't go in. But still, somehow it still comes out. I gotta be organs at this point. There's nothing in me.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, he was great.
Big Jay Oakerson
He was amazing. That song particularly. Here's the problem. Well, it's not a problem at all if it hits on the nose. Yeah, it's. It's brutal. But the thing is, he's very specific in it. He says father.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. Well, he said all the ghosts in his own town and his grandfather.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's from like the past. Like people that he's lost.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. People that you lose. Yeah, People you lose. And grief.
Big Jay Oakerson
Right.
Robert Kelly
Is only love that's got no place to go.
Big Jay Oakerson
But he says fa. He really points out father.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
So I can see that being the thing. And because of that it takes. I can't now assign any meaning to it. There's plenty of songs that have nothing to do with why they make me cry. But in my mind I'm like, well, I can. It twists to this. Who died in your life most recently? That's like important.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
My grandmother.
Robert Kelly
What did you call her?
Big Jay Oakerson
My mom.
Robert Kelly
My mom. Can't you go? My mama. Mama is in the ground.
Big Jay Oakerson
Nope.
Robert Kelly
I was thinking more your grandfather.
Big Jay Oakerson
He died when I was 37 years ago.
Robert Kelly
Do you. Do you miss him?
Big Jay Oakerson
Sure.
Robert Kelly
Do you think about him?
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
When you think about him, what do you think of Jay?
Big Jay Oakerson
He taught me how to like do the stuff like throw a football, have a catch and stuff like that. He Would come to my Little League games or my softball games. I was too young for Little League yet when he died.
Robert Kelly
Sing it, Jay.
Big Jay Oakerson
He was a storm door salesman. He went door to door for a company called City of Mirrors. And then before that he owned a key making store in a flea market.
Robert Kelly
Yes, he did.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yes, he did. My mom. Listen, you could get me. It's. Again, the song's too known. So it's. And there's also so much funny things I've seen wrapped around it. But I think DJ Lou was standing next to me. Drops of Jupiter Train Live shortly after my grandmother passed away. Rough. Yeah, I had it there. Yeah, I think. Sure.
Robert Kelly
I think his next song. 1994 song. Yeah, I thought that was brilliant, the way he opened up with that.
Big Jay Oakerson
Well, he opens it. Yeah. He opens and closes with the Nirvana riff, which is why all apologies.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. Which I thought was really, like Lou was saying that that's.
Big Jay Oakerson
Well, me not knowing. Well me not knowing that that's what the song was going to be. When he started, he said something about 1994 and like somebody first kiss. And they started playing that riff. And I'm like, is all apologies about a first kiss? Is he just meant to do a cover, which I was fine with, but I was just like, oh, this is like. And then I was almost. The way Bobby was like presented, he was. I was like, does Bobby not know this is a cover of like a song that's already happened by Nirvana? But then he went into the actual song.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, that song is.
Big Jay Oakerson
I'd like to write more lyrics for that though. 1994, big year. Oh, that was a big, big year.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
Big J got laid by a 22 year old. It was technically statutory rape, but I begged her and I begged her and she finally g. We fucked in a Holiday Inn. We went to the Philly diner. I ill advisedly ordered spaghetti, had a belly full of pasta, holding in a fart for my first blow job. It was 1994. I later went on to found out that girl's uncle was molesting her, even as an adult. And that's probably why she had sex with me when I was so young. Hurt people, hurt people. Yeah. I faked coming. I said I did, but I didn't. I went in the bathroom and act like I was cleaning up, but I was just staring in the mirror being like, you did it. Oh, man. Why did. I could just learn a few chords, dude. I could play outlaw country so good.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, you could.
Big Jay Oakerson
He's sleep. Middle of the night Christine just farted again.
Robert Kelly
That's not 1994.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, that was last night.
Robert Kelly
That's your. That's your. That's your song. Last night. Do last night.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, last night. This was great. Last night I went to. I didn't tell Christina's. I went to. I had to wake up, my stomach's been. So I went to the bathroom 6:30 in the morning and I tried to get bed. Then I was like laying in the other room. I was like, maybe I just try to crash out in here for a little bit. And then I was like, no, I want to get back in like bad bed. And I got back in bed with the dog and Christine, and Christine even did what you might think was the beginning of a sexy move. That was when she kicked out of the covers and her naked butt and her T shirt was above her naked butt. And then I got back in bed. I almost went back in the other room again.
Robert Kelly
What kind of underwear? Tell me, was it none? Oh, she had nothing.
Big Jay Oakerson
Straight to the earth.
Robert Kelly
Oh, you dog farted in the back.
Big Jay Oakerson
Farm the table, dude.
Robert Kelly
Wow. You dog farted. I'm asleep. I cannot be held responsible for anything.
Big Jay Oakerson
I can't hold. I hold no anger towards her. She was asleep in fact. And I. What was doing being awake at 8 in the morning. But.
Robert Kelly
But yeah, when you pooping, is it sounding like a middle aged woman taking a piss?
Big Jay Oakerson
Me.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, yeah, it's coming up. Yes. Oh, and it's hitting any. Everything but the water somehow. I'll tell you what's a fun thing to watch though, when you really paint the bowl with an explosion and you do that first flush and you get to see it all like shoot down the bowl. That's fun.
Robert Kelly
I'm surprised somebody hasn't made art out of that.
Big Jay Oakerson
I know, right? Somebody has. There's period blood art. There's definitely diarrhea art.
Robert Kelly
Oh, that's it right there.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Nashville.
Big Jay Oakerson
I have no idea.
Robert Kelly
When did you start to get sick?
Big Jay Oakerson
My birthday. Saturday.
Robert Kelly
My birthday.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah, Saturday. I think it might be just fucking bad, like nervous stomach because I'm not sick in any other way.
Robert Kelly
Why would you be nervous? What do you have to be nervous about?
Big Jay Oakerson
7,000 things. There's a lot on my plate right now where you said that a lot in your life. Yeah, yeah, I have. But this particular month is a lot. Yeah, actually the last few months has been a lot. But it's so maybe it's that. Maybe it's just because, I don't know, I don't feel like sick sick.
Robert Kelly
You think it nerves gives you diarrhea. Yeah, I don't know about that.
Big Jay Oakerson
Nervous stomach.
Robert Kelly
I've heard of a nervous stomach, but I haven't heard about nervous, you know, having shits for two days.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, four days. Could you.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, that's like cancer, dude.
Big Jay Oakerson
Four days.
Robert Kelly
That's like. Why'd you say that? Because it's funny. Exaggerated the trut for a HAHA with this guy. Now he has cancer.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. I mean, I'm fine with that.
Robert Kelly
King of hypochondria. You're getting cops.
Big Jay Oakerson
If I was a hypochondriac. If I was a hypochondriac, I'd go to the doctor more. I don't go to the doctor at all, but I probably have stomach cancer.
Robert Kelly
You probably have stomach cancer?
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Well, maybe. Yeah, it's fine.
Big Jay Oakerson
I just want to.
Robert Kelly
If you do wind up getting cancer, will you marry Christine before you go?
Big Jay Oakerson
No, I will.
Robert Kelly
Really.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, no. I have to enjoy my last year. No.
Robert Kelly
What about on your deathbed? Like you're going today?
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Then we just. We come in, you get married real quick.
Big Jay Oakerson
Can it have double meaning, though? Who does it over? I want to. Somebody over.
Robert Kelly
No, I don't think we.
Big Jay Oakerson
Any. My ex wife will be Dunsko. Oh, I'll tell you. Be over, Gil. Pretty nice.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
I better get that will made.
Jacob
She might, like, try to slip you a will while you're on morphine. Sign here, Jay.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, then good for her. Then she pulled it off.
Jacob
Yes.
Big Jay Oakerson
Can't get mad at that.
Robert Kelly
As soon as you sign, she just farts in your face. See you later, Chub, chub.
Big Jay Oakerson
And then they'll be like, oh, my God, you could even just do it through pants. And she goes, he likes it from the tap.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. Grief is only love. We've got no place to go. See you later. Say hi to mama.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. Oh, look, my grief did have a place to go right in your nostrils.
Robert Kelly
I tell you what. Yesterday, though, I mean, you give me so much. You give me so much.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, hang on, let me. That's how we operate.
Robert Kelly
It's really not.
Jacob
There was a moment.
Robert Kelly
You gave me so much shit for my. My intros.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
And my outro was. I mean, I smooth as ice. Asked him a question to get to his song, and he was like, yeah, and answer the question. I go, well, can you play one of those for us right now? And he went, sure thing. And he went. And you went. So when you were in school, I.
Big Jay Oakerson
Mean, just felt it while I was doing it, but I was like, I'm a pothead, and I'm like, what if I lose this question?
Robert Kelly
Write it down. Get a notepad.
Big Jay Oakerson
I need a notepad. I just had to blur out during editing. Grief is only love. Wait, wait, wait. I just remembered. Are those thrift store clothes or are you like, is it put together like a whole, like, a thing or. They're crazy expensive Somehow it was so.
Robert Kelly
Funny because it was like, yeah, sure. And I was like, this is gonna.
Big Jay Oakerson
Be beautiful, and I'd love to play a song for you, Robert. And I was like, in a second. Though, conversely, do you think it's gonna get. Do you think the winters are getting warmer?
Robert Kelly
When you did it, it hit me in the chest like, you punched me. I was like, huh? What?
Big Jay Oakerson
I hated it myself. A million apologies.
Robert Kelly
That was funny. It was very funny too.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, yeah.
Robert Kelly
It was very funny when you found out he was a nerd. Made me laugh. So. Yo. But I'm so sorry.
Big Jay Oakerson
Don't call our guest a nerd.
Robert Kelly
Hang on. Sorry. I apologize to you. He's wearing a Star Trek.
Big Jay Oakerson
Star Trek shirt.
Robert Kelly
A jacket.
Big Jay Oakerson

Big Jay Oakerson

Big Jay Oakerson
Grief is Only Love. You harmonized, dude.
Robert Kelly
That's all he does. He doesn't play the drums.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah, no, no, he plays Grief is Only.
Robert Kelly
He only plays the rim of the snare. There he is. There he is.
Big Jay Oakerson
That's that Nightingale.
Jacob
We were. It was great watching the both of you from the control room. We just kind of had your profiles.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Jacob
And then when Bobby was being emotional, letting. Letting. Letting himself be vulnerable and saying how much his. The song meant and how he connected to his. His stepfather.
Robert Kelly
That was wrong.
Jacob
And then Jay went like this. We just saw you side eye up.
Big Jay Oakerson
I hope the video captures hardcore. That as soon as you started that. I was like, what the are you doing?
Robert Kelly
I forget. I forget sometimes that I'm around. I'm around funny.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah, dude, Call me about that later.
Robert Kelly
You understand?

Big Jay Oakerson
I'm a comedian. Stand comedian. I had an emotional wreck, and still you got to, like, can't lay that out. Like, that.
Robert Kelly
It hit me, man. It hit me. Here's what hit me too.
Big Jay Oakerson
He go, he. That's sweet.
Jacob
If looks could talk, I know they can.
Robert Kelly
Cuz I felt him.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh y.
Robert Kelly
Something.
Big Jay Oakerson
Then I looked over. Then I looked over at Christine and Black Lou who started laughing hysterically, biting their Paco. Paco started covering his mouth and his stomach while you were rolling. So I looked at you and then I looked at them. I was like, what is happening here?
Robert Kelly
But then I got lost cuz I felt the energy in the room and then I was trying to get out of it somehow.
Big Jay Oakerson
You go. And then it's like your words were tor from the pages of my soul.
Robert Kelly
Play it again. It was two. I'm glad I didn't say what I was gonna say. I was gonna.
Big Jay Oakerson
When you were done saying it, I should have been like. Anybody who got that driving in their car, the scene shift from him crying. The. We have the shift, right? Do we have him start doing the prayer in that scene? When you play that fully. Yeah. The screams for heaven people haven't heard in a while. Larry, he taught me how to read, sort of. We are called Israel. We are called Israel. Shalom.
Robert Kelly
What a Jewish. The emerald or me?
Big Jay Oakerson
Donut lost you. I lost Larry. I don't lose what I got. You should tell me. Go. Steven Wilson Jr. For the first time in my life, I'm afraid, dude, I'm afraid I got you the kid.
Robert Kelly
I want to talk about that. That guy today. Who. Dude, I almost got into another. Yes, I'm sorry we talked about the Valley incident. I'm on the same spot, same train. This guy was.
Big Jay Oakerson
Same. Same platform. That. The other thing.
Robert Kelly
Same same platform.
Big Jay Oakerson
Fourth.
Robert Kelly
No, it's 14th F. Yes. Yeah, yeah, 6th Ave. Yep. Go down. And I'm. You know, I always got my. My head on a swivel anyways now especially there. And dude, this guy like walking back and forth, mumbling, mumbling, mumbling, mumbling. And I was like, fuck, please don't come up to me. Please don't come up to me. Please don't come up to me. And he almost like saw me from a distance, was looking for somebody to.
Big Jay Oakerson
Fucking up to him.
Robert Kelly
And he came right up to me, mumbling past me. I just kept my head down. And then he walked by me mumbling shit at me. And then he kind of just stood there and started just like, motherfucker.
Big Jay Oakerson
And what do you look like?
Robert Kelly
He was.
Big Jay Oakerson
I know he's a white guy, but what.
Robert Kelly
He's not a white guy. He was a black dude.
Big Jay Oakerson
No.
Robert Kelly
Black dude. Fucking shoelaces undone. Oh, crappy shoes.
Big Jay Oakerson
No.
Robert Kelly
Kind of crazy. Crazy person.
Big Jay Oakerson
Homeless.
Robert Kelly
I don't know if he was homeless because he wasn't, like, smelly, but he was. He was. You know, I look at the shoes.
Big Jay Oakerson
But it's raining outside.
Robert Kelly
I always look at shoes. If your shoes are untied, there's something wrong with you.
Big Jay Oakerson
Sure.
Robert Kelly
If you're a black guy with untied sneakers, something's wrong with you.
Big Jay Oakerson
My sneakers aren't tied.
Robert Kelly
No, I'm talking, like, flipping out. Like, the shoelaces got you gotcha. Or the. All frayed at the end. And of course. And he was just like, you want to. Fuck it. I should. I should fucking get you right now, bitch. Just. I mean, he's talking to me, but I just didn't acknowledge him and I.
Big Jay Oakerson
Damn, What a pussy move.
Robert Kelly
The train came. Nah, fuck that. I don't want to wind up like, buddy, you're right.
Big Jay Oakerson
You don't. You have a family that. You have a family that relies on you. Number one, A son that looks up to you, and you have to be around for them. And if that means you got to act like, I don't know, a terrified pussy on the subways, that's what you got to do. It's not a matter how those people think or how the rest of the world thinks about you. It's about how your family feels about you.
Robert Kelly
I have my American flag hat on.
Big Jay Oakerson
Okay.
Robert Kelly
Okay.
Big Jay Oakerson
And I had a time to take back the streets.
Robert Kelly
I just. I just bought. I just bought Max Jordans. So I had a box with Jordans in them, too, for Christmas. Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
Nice.
Robert Kelly
And. And my Louis Vuitton crossbody. I think that's a jinx. I think that Louis Vuitton.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's not a jinx. It's a beacon. Why are you. You're running around on the subways with, like, Gucci bags, and that's sort of your fault. That's ridiculous.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. First of all, it's not. It's Louis Vuitton. It's a little upgraded. Whatever it is, we're gonna talk. Let's talk. Right? I mean, back in the day, I.
Big Jay Oakerson
Won'T even take something like that to the airport anymore because they fucked me.
Robert Kelly
They have a hair port.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, airport.
Robert Kelly
Oh, I thought it said hair port. I thought you went to a place to get your hair done.
Big Jay Oakerson
I went to the hair port.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, dude, look, I get it, but it's during the day. It's. It's, you know, 1:00. There's a million people. I mean, and it's funny because this guy. What's the guy who just got off? What's his name? Oh, the guy that choked out the guy.
Big Jay Oakerson
American hero. Something. Penny.
Jacob
Danny.
Robert Kelly
Daniel. Daniel, what is it?
Big Jay Oakerson
I know, dude, you've been dying to kill a homo since that guy.
Robert Kelly
No, but this guy, you know, was on the train. Daniel, Penny, he's on the train. He's a marine. This guy's getting on, telling, I want to kill you. I don't give a. If I go to jail, I'll go to.
Big Jay Oakerson
He's somebody else.
Robert Kelly
He's. What is somebody else? This is walking up to everybody on the train. I'll kill women, black women, Spanish women, white, anybody on the train. And this guy, as a marine, stepped up, subdued the guy.
Big Jay Oakerson
Once he started going at white women.
Robert Kelly
No, he. He went. He, he.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, he's going with the blacks and Hispanic women. He was like, sucks to be them. And then he went, beautiful white.
Robert Kelly
True dude. It's not true.
Big Jay Oakerson
Feel like he would get black glue to go nuts on the subway.
Robert Kelly
This guy.
Big Jay Oakerson
Did you go on a beautiful white woman?
Robert Kelly
This guy grabbed the guy, choked him out, you know, and he was still alive, by the way. When the cops came and they just didn't. They chose not to give him CPR because he was a drug addict. They could have gave him cpr, but the cops have a choice at that time to do it or not. Because they could catch something. They could get sick from the drug.
Big Jay Oakerson
Sure.
Robert Kelly
So they chose not to give him cpr. They could have gave him CPR and he would have been fine. He would be alive today.
Big Jay Oakerson
Right?
Robert Kelly
Wait, mouth to mouth of the mouth to mouth.
Jacob
Everyone is going to die. If I have to do that, I.
Big Jay Oakerson
Only do it as tomorrow. Atm, that's called in the biz.
Jacob
I mean, that's a cop job to give. Mouse him out.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. If I put my face between Christine's butt cheeks last night, she would have brought me back to life.
Robert Kelly
But they. They're the ones who chose not he. He was still alive when the cop showed up. And they chose not to bring. Give him cpr. That was their choice. Whatever.
Big Jay Oakerson
He's still alive. No, he wasn't alive. He was.
Robert Kelly
He was. He could have been.
Big Jay Oakerson
He could have been saved.
Robert Kelly
He still had a pulse is what I'm saying. Understand. He was still technically alive. They could have brought him back. They chose not to. And this guy was going to go to jail and they found him innocent.
Big Jay Oakerson
It nice.
Robert Kelly
And now everybody's in a uproar.
Big Jay Oakerson
Why? Because it's open season on the homeless. Dude. Let's go.
Robert Kelly
Well, it's gonna get worse because.
Big Jay Oakerson
Damn right it is. I'm gonna start taking. Finally a motivation to take Jiu Jitsu. He goes, do you know if you know Jiu Jitsu, you can kill the homeless in New York City?
Robert Kelly
Well, it's. It's. It's like you're in the subway now and these crazy guys are coming up. There's no cops anywhere. There's no. There's no safety.
Big Jay Oakerson
I thought that's what was changing. I thought that that was. There's gonna be cops everywhere.
Robert Kelly
No, there's cops. Cops at Westforth. That's it. West 4th has cops.
Jacob
Didn't.
Robert Kelly
But they're up at the front and they're out there. But they're. No, they're not at all night. They're only during rush hour times. And they're there and they're behind a barrier, and most of them are on their phones. Whatever. I started a. I see guys jumping over the. In front of the cops, just jumping over. Not paying the. Not paying the fee.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, constantly. I heard. Yeah. Most people just jump.
Jacob
Glad you brought that up. I'm. I'm. I'm convinced I'm the only one that pays my fare.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
I watch people. They don't even. It's not even a thought. They just hop right over. And I'm the.
Robert Kelly
I did it today when I was getting up, when I was getting on the training guy, I just stepped over it and I was like, all right. And I'm like, beep. And I paid my stupid thing. But I don't. Nerd.
Big Jay Oakerson
Who's the nerd?
Robert Kelly
First of all, so scared to hop.
Big Jay Oakerson
The turnstile because they would ticket you.
Jacob
First of all, it's like sheep jumping over railings. That's what it looks like.
Robert Kelly
Let's be honest. None of us are getting over the turnstile. I'm gonna flop. You might.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, I could jump over the turnstile, but I can.
Robert Kelly
No, you wouldn't. Your wallet chain would get hooked on the turnstile and you flop right on your cheek.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, I can get over the turnstiles for sure, but it wouldn't be like. What I wouldn't be able to do is the straight. Like the push up and get your legs up and over from it. I have to do, like a sideways cartwheeling motion sort of over it, but I can't get over it.
Jacob
You can do it. No, not everyone does it.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, no. I. I thought that I could. I could I could figure out a way to step over it. I'm saying there's ways I can get over it without making a thing. But if you want me to, in one motion, get over. It's the same. One of my biggest dreams, dude, is I can jump over a chest high fence one day by just doing the thing and going somehow sideways. Like you bring your legs, like, sideways and back over the other side. It's mine. Always has to be a weird, like looping legs, like, fly over.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I tried to do that. Max threw his mid over the fence and I tried. I was like, I'll get it. And I tried to. I thought I would just jump over the fence. I jumped on it and my stomach got hooked. And then the fence started bending. Oh, and I heard the other parents go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I was about to pull down the whole Little League fence with my fatness.
Jacob
I hear they're actually putting, like, glass or plexiglas things now. Literally. Nobody I know pays.
Robert Kelly
I don't give a fuck.
Jacob
I see.
Robert Kelly
I know you're gonna. If you have the balls to jump over and not pay, fine. I don't give a shit. I really don't care. But the crazy people on the train.
Jacob
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
If. If this. If I was on that train and this guy stepped up, I would be like, thank you. Because there's a bunch of women. These women were terrified. And I see it all the time today. You. Nobody around me would have helped me at all if this guy started attacking me. This guy was two feet away from me. Call me a motherfucker, trying to get me to look at him. Trying to get me to say something to him so he could do whatever the fuck he was gonna do. Look, I got a knife on me. I'm gonna protect myself. That'd be a nightmare. Thank God the train came and he walked away. And then I had to walk. I walked down a little bit. But now you're terrified when you get off the train. Is this guy still here? I can't sit down and play my ball game like I usually play. I gotta make sure he's not coming on. And I gotta take the train after the show. And I gotta. You're always looking over your shoulder. Now Val is gonna have that mental shit. I had that for six months after I got attacked. Down, down there. I was always looking for that guy.
Big Jay Oakerson
And I know what they say, that true strength is that you get right back on that horse. And Val starts getting the subway again. Like, I will not let fear run my Life. But I don't subscribe to that. I say you just learned. Stay off this bum infested shit pipe that runs through the bottom of the city.
Robert Kelly
It's the fastest.
Big Jay Oakerson
If you're a New Yorker, you have.
Robert Kelly
To take the subway. But it's the fat. If I wouldn't make it down to the seller, if I jumped in an Uber, I wouldn't make it down to down.
Jacob
You'd save so much time using the subway.
Big Jay Oakerson
Absolutely. Super fast, dude. Unicycles. But I'm not gonna just fly through traffic on a unicycle.
Robert Kelly
I gotta take it. I have to to get to where I'm going.
Big Jay Oakerson
You don't have to.
Robert Kelly
I do. I do. But I'm not taking it at night anymore. From the cellar to the garage.
Big Jay Oakerson
City bike, dude.
Robert Kelly
I love the city bikes.
Big Jay Oakerson
City bike, it.
Robert Kelly
I love it. But then that comic just died on a city bike. He died on a city bike. No helmet.
Jacob
That's nuts. Taken.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, he got hit by a car. No helmet, hit his head. It was a city bike. Yeah, some comic died.
Big Jay Oakerson
That was a while ago.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, no, it was this year. This year.
Big Jay Oakerson
Kenny DeForest.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, that's this year. Yeah. He died on a city bike. Got hit by a car.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. It took a while too. Yeah, he didn't die right away, which sucks.
Robert Kelly
Sucks. I'm not wearing a helmet.
Big Jay Oakerson
Never.
Robert Kelly
Not on a city bike. I wear my helmet when I use my bikes up in. Up in New Hampshire. I wear my helmet because nobody can see me.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. Night time.
Robert Kelly
There's no way I'm gonna put a helmet on and show up out front where you guys I got for talking about my dead dad in a sweet song.
Big Jay Oakerson
I would love to see you come out of work and start putting your wallet in your sock so you can go jump on the.
Robert Kelly
Tucking my leg.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah, you gotta tuck your pant leg into your socks so it doesn't get caught in the chain.
Jacob
Hey, nerd.
Big Jay Oakerson
Now Jacob's picking on you on the streets.
Robert Kelly
I think it's crazy that people. People are still this guy. And then he went through the process and they found him not guilty twice. That one was a mistrial. Then he went back in.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, is that what happened? The first one was they gave him.
Robert Kelly
Two shots to get this guy on something. And jury of his peers, black, white, Spanish, women, men, you know, everybody straight white, men. And no. And primarily straight. And he's. And they're still fucking with this guy. I mean, this guy is not a piece of shit.
Big Jay Oakerson
It does suck that he has to like look over his shoulder the rest of his life. I agree. I mean, like, listen, he did something. I don't think he went on the train. Like, next motherfuckers going to catch it.
Robert Kelly
Of course not.
Big Jay Oakerson
I think he did. But again, we also don't know the guy. Like there might be a lot of people be like this guy, cuz remember, that's the funny when the story comes out first. Remember American Sniper? The movie American Sniper came out. They. There's so many. Jesse Ventura is one of them. But he's a loop. But I mean, there's several people I believe who have come out and been like, y. Don't celebrate. This guy's a piece of. Yeah, like American. You know, I mean, like he was a jerk off.
Robert Kelly
Well, the guy's killing people. But here's the thing.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, but they were like, he was like stoked to do that. He. They said like, he wasn't a guy that was like, yeah, I'm gonna go protect my country. He's like, I want to kill some people.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. I mean, he's a sniper. He's shooting people. It's crazy. But the guy that he wound up choking up, he was arrested 40 times. It's not like it was some guy who got on the train, had a bad day. This guy is, you know, arrested 40 times and yelling, I will kill you. I don't care if I go to jail. And then he. Was he supposed to just let people, somebody die?
Big Jay Oakerson
No. You take justice in your own hands.
Robert Kelly
I mean, that's a scary thing too. Take it.
Big Jay Oakerson
I mean, swift and blinding violence, dude. Oh, all day long.
Robert Kelly
What would you do if somebody was on the train screaming and yelling at who? If somebody was like, I'm gonna kill you. Screaming and yelling at people, how far.
Big Jay Oakerson
Away are they from you on the train?
Robert Kelly
He's around 5ft, but he was, he was all the way at the end. But he's coming, he's walking towards you, screaming at people.
Big Jay Oakerson
I'm fucking, I'm stand up and say, does anybody know karate? Does anybody know karate? It's. Listen, it depends. I do feel like it's dude's job as in relation to how close it's getting to you.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
If he's going at. If he's saying some crazy shit to a woman who's three people away from me and on the other direct side of her, right in the next side of her is another guy. Well, it's his job there.
Robert Kelly
So it depends on the guys in between you and the guy.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's the relation to where am I the closest person? Am I the closest person? That should handle this, right. You know, I mean, or try to, I should say, look, I'm sure I can get the kicked out of me.
Robert Kelly
By some lunatic if I was in between you and the guy. It's my responsibility.
Big Jay Oakerson
Your responsibility? Now this guy, this is the one who said he was gonna kill everybody. Yeah, he killed the Michael Jackson impersonator.
Robert Kelly
No, he was a Michael Jackson. This is what they're saying. This guy was just a Michael Jackson impersonator. You shouldn't have done that.
Big Jay Oakerson
He was like mental.
Robert Kelly
He was mentally ill. And I mean.
Big Jay Oakerson
When you're threatening, that doesn't look mentally ill to me.
Robert Kelly
Dude looks pretty badass to me.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah, guy's nailing it. Oh, he's doing the thing.
Jacob
Look, no one's denying he has moves.
Robert Kelly
I mean, he does have moves, but he wasn't wearing that. I'm sure if he was wearing that that day, he wouldn't have, he wouldn't have choked.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh my God.
Robert Kelly
If he killed him.
Big Jay Oakerson
You can't choke a guy out in a marching band jacket.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
Did you kill a black drum major? No.
Robert Kelly
There's Michael Jackson.
Big Jay Oakerson
Man. So somebody does this and sometimes he says he's going to kill everybody.
Robert Kelly
I mean, you're right though. You don't know. There's no, here's the problem. People didn't wasn't recording him saying, I'll kill you, I'll kill you. Because they were afraid. You know, when people start doing that, you don't take your camera out right away because you're afraid that the guy's gonna see you.
Big Jay Oakerson
Because he was going around the camera, he was going around to everybody in their face screaming, I'm bad, I'm bad. You know it. You know it. I'm bad. I'm really, really bad. Because I had to put him down.
Robert Kelly
Maybe he did make a mistake. Cake.
Big Jay Oakerson
I'm bad, I'm bad.
Robert Kelly
You know it, Shimon.
Big Jay Oakerson
And the whole world's going to tell you right back if they ask you once again, who's bad.
Jacob
But when the families afterwards say, you know, he suffered from mental illness, I get who's, who doesn't.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, I'm going to learn how to.
Robert Kelly
Do that to kill people.
Jacob
I, I, you don't have to tell me that.
Robert Kelly
It's just you put you people.
Jacob
I assume that already.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, yeah. It's nuts.
Big Jay Oakerson
I mean, somewhere in between his mental illness, he finds time to Michael Jackson his hair up.
Robert Kelly
I mean, that's mental illness right there.
Big Jay Oakerson
That's not a process. That is a process you have to go through.
Robert Kelly
It's really good. He's really sorry. Was. He was really good.
Big Jay Oakerson
That's my favorite when you do little. Was it a foot shuffle? Happy feet. I'm starting to believe by watching YouTube videos. You wanna know what I do alone, bobby? I watch YouTube videos to see if I could eventually learn how to do that foot shuffle.
Robert Kelly
You could do it right now.
Big Jay Oakerson
Well, I can't.
Robert Kelly
I can get you those shoes. I think they're available. Sorry.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, look how fucking sweet he was.
Jacob
She was running through my head. Now if I'm sitting there with my noise canceling headphones and there's that music is still blasting like through my headphones, I'm.
Big Jay Oakerson
Somebody killed. Yeah. Murder this guy. Murder this guy aggressively is what you say.
Robert Kelly
It's.
Big Jay Oakerson
You go.
Robert Kelly
It's.
Big Jay Oakerson
Hey, sir, you look like you used to be a marine. If I give you 20 bucks, will you murder this guy?
Robert Kelly
Yeah. That's sad. That the guy was just doing. Thinking he was. I'm helping. I'm just restraining this guy until somebody shows the fuck up. And it. And this guy wound up dying, which sucks because this guy should have been in a mental institution. He should have been taken care of. And they. They release all these people now, they don't put them in the institution. They put him on the streets the next day. And it sucks. You get arrested 40 times because you're mentally ill. You should get help. This guy should have had help somewhere.
Big Jay Oakerson
Listen, I don't think. I'm not saying necessarily. I think the guy who did. Who killed him should be in jail necessarily. I don't know. But I just really just don't know enough of it, I guess. And what went down. But trying to subdue them. Like there's probably a little bit of a. That guy probably Daniel Penny. Again, I'm all. It's all speculation. I don't know any. Could be a fucking loop.
Robert Kelly
He could be a piece.
Big Jay Oakerson
It could be a like a loop. Who was like fucking. Who's like. Can't wait. Like he does shit like this all the time. Like get into trouble. He's the one who always got to sort it out and stuff.
Robert Kelly
Because these are the movies we love to see. Just some vigilante.
Jacob
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Takes care of some guy attacking people on the train.
Big Jay Oakerson
I don't have a problem this way with him being out at all.
Jacob
It's like Bobby said, though. If you see this guy, subdue this crazy guy, you're. You're happy. If you're on that.
Robert Kelly
Everybody.
Jacob
You're so relieved.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. Everybody on the. If I saw if today, some guy like him showed up and told that guy to leave me alone, I would have been so happy. I would have been like, thank you, sir. I had nobody.
Big Jay Oakerson
This is the system. Megyn Kelly reacts to Jordan Neely's father saying, system is rigged. You love her responding to anything.
Robert Kelly
She's so hot.
Big Jay Oakerson
She goes for it too.
Robert Kelly
Right now she is, she's got. She's saying.
Big Jay Oakerson
And she's like, blacks need to be in prison. I'm Megyn Kelly.
Robert Kelly
She's hot. Not.
Big Jay Oakerson
She's not though.
Robert Kelly
Marks a moment ago outside of the courthouse. Here he is.
Big Jay Oakerson
I miss my son, man. I mean, hairline to chin on that girl is a tiring walk.
Robert Kelly
Here's the thing, though. To hear it, to hear a guy go, I miss my son sucks. It really sucks that this guy's son is dead. But your son was arrested 40 times, had mental illness. Where the. What the are you doing?
Big Jay Oakerson
Stop dressing like a well known pedophile on the trains too. Just be worked up.
Robert Kelly
I'm just like, dude, the man. Why was your son out freaking out on a train? It's just crazy to me.
Big Jay Oakerson
Damn. Do you think when his dad went to the hospital he was like, jordan, are you okay? Are you okay? Are you okay, Jordan?
Robert Kelly
Can I ask you a question?
Big Jay Oakerson
You've been hit by. You've been struck back. A former Marine.
Robert Kelly
Why. Why in this. Why in this interview is there a forest ranger in the background?
Big Jay Oakerson
I don't know exactly.
Robert Kelly
Why is Yogi Bear. Yeah, why is the forest.
Big Jay Oakerson
He's like those great words from. From Jordan Neely's father. Now, if you get a word from Smokey the Bear, only you can stop forest fires.
Robert Kelly
Has anybody seen my pick in a basket?
Big Jay Oakerson
Tony Woods.
Robert Kelly
Why is that uniform?
Big Jay Oakerson
I don't know.
Robert Kelly
Maybe that's one of his dance partners.
Big Jay Oakerson
That's his court outfit inspector. Now we have a comic strip inspector here to talk about.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, it's kind of sad.
Big Jay Oakerson
Of course, it's like I said, no matter what. But also like, I didn't realize how like peckery thin the kid was too. Like, well, did you have to do it? Did you have to do.
Robert Kelly
He didn't look like that.
Big Jay Oakerson
Choke him out.
Robert Kelly
He didn't look like. If you see the video of him choking him out. He did not. He looked like a crazy dude. I'm sure if Michael Jackson was screaming at people.
Big Jay Oakerson
There's also, there's a level of. Again, I can't put myself in any of this position, other than I'm saying, like, there are things, like, I don't know if someone that small, like, my restraint would think that I'd have to, like, choke them unconscious. Should be like, I could probably, like, keep them here, you know, I mean, I could probably, like, bottle them up pretty good until help comes.
Robert Kelly
He's probably doing what he does.
Big Jay Oakerson
That makes sense. I don't know, like, more than just like. More than like, the straight up, like. Like putting him down. Like, if. If you're doing that, I assume your move is like, oh, I'm gonna put him out and then let go. But that's the idea is he didn't let go right when the guy was unconscious.
Robert Kelly
No, he was. No, he wasn't. He didn't go unconscious. He was still breathing when he. When the people, they said it was.
Big Jay Oakerson
Well, you're not breathing when you're unconscious. I mean, you go unconscious. Kind of like.
Robert Kelly
He didn't look at watch. He didn't go out. He was still moving around. His stomach was going in and out. He was still going.
Big Jay Oakerson
I think whatever it is, you give this guy off because he did jujitsu in a backpack pretty good.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
I always got to give credit where the credit's doing these stories.
Robert Kelly
Well, there's a other dude there holding his arms down. There's another brother holding his arms down. There's another guy standing over him, and it's like, right now, you should let go. He was trying to fight the other black.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's white to the people. You. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Robert Kelly
That's so funny. It's all white people.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. Hey, juries. The mayor was like, he. Fine, y'all take back the night. We need a bunch of these Batman running around this city. Dangerous out there.
Robert Kelly
So all the facts and all the evidence and made a decision, and I joined DA Braggs and stating that I respect the process. Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
You know, Giannis Pappas always. I'll never forget, made me laugh so hard in Montreal one year. I think it was the first year I saw him up there a while ago now. But it always stuck with me. I was like, man, you just get here, Giannis. He was like, yeah. I go, it's a great city. The fucking homeless here are like. Like, it's out of control.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
Like, they're Come and sit next to you at a. Out when you're at an outside table. So they'll sit next to you while you're eating, and you have to be like, get the fuck out of here.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
Like, it's crazy. He goes, yeah, yeah. He goes. That's the thing about New York, you know, like once a year, somebody sets one of them on fire. So they always keep that in the back of their mind. Like, maybe I shouldn't push the envelope too hard. It's just true. Once in a while, I'm just set to homeless guy on fire. Just remember, we could turn on you too. You're not the only crazy people here.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, it's a sad thing that happened, but I'm glad that he didn't get convicted of murder because he wasn't trying to murder somebody. He was trying to restrain somebody. And it got up.
Big Jay Oakerson
I'll tell you what I'm putting. I'm putting down the next Michael Jackson impersonator I see. I'm doing a copycat killing. That's what they call that. That's what they call that in the true crime world. I'm doing a copycat killer. I'm gonna do all accidental death, copycat killings.
Robert Kelly
You don't have to worry about me killing anybody. I just put my head down.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Robert Kelly
And hold on to my Louis vu.
Big Jay Oakerson
You have a family you have to worry about, so you have to sit there like a. Just like a. A.
Robert Kelly
But it is. I. I've been on a train in Boston. I was on a train when I used to go to call when I was in college. I took the train.
Big Jay Oakerson
That's when you were the train vigilante.
Robert Kelly
I know.
Big Jay Oakerson
I was like, I own those trains.
Robert Kelly
I was on a train and there was a lady with a fur coat on, and this guy was screaming in her face, calling her a. A you and your fur coat, whatever. And then he was screaming. Other people were like, hey, leave her alone. He was like, fuck. And he was just getting violent. And I finally told him to shut the fuck up. And he came at me and I spun, kick him in the stomach.
Big Jay Oakerson
Landed it.
Robert Kelly
I don't know where it came from.
Big Jay Oakerson
You landed it.
Robert Kelly
I landed a spin kick into his stomach and he went to the floor. And I said, I go, none of you fucking people are gonna do anything. It's a woman, for God's sakes.
Big Jay Oakerson
Were you staying like this when you said it? Nobody.
Robert Kelly
And then I. And then I got off the train. That was my stop. And I got off and I left the guy. The guy who was on the ground, I left him on the train with the lady. I don't know what happened to her, but we gotta take a break real quick. Hang in there. You never know who's gonna Get a pivot. Next.

It was so frustrating and not be able to ask for certain things. You know what? I just turned on my Babel app. All of a sudden I was speaking sentences, saying good afternoon. I got to go in and say por favor ques which means please cheese. This app was amazing because it teaches you in a fun, relatable way that all of a sudden you just know words and they're in your lexicon. I'm learning Italian with my son. I put my whole family on babbel right now with a quick 10 minute lesson handcrafted by over 200 language experts. Babbel gets you talking in a new language. Just three weeks. And with the advanced speech recognition by Babbel it's like having a personal language tutor in your pocket helping you pronunc whenever you open your mouth. I got Babbel. I hopefully know Spanish and Italian by the end of the year and I already know a bunch of words. I know a couple swears too. Not on there. From the guy I met in Cuba. Here's a special holiday deal for our listeners right now. Get up to 60% off your babel subscription. But only for the bonfire with big J Okerson and Robert kelly.

Robert Kelly
But it's.
Big Jay Oakerson
We do because, guys, we have to make it a little more inviting for problems to come towards us.
Robert Kelly

Robert Kelly
Yeah, we actually turn our jackets and is the flame of. Just on the back so they feel it.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Robert Kelly
We should get LED lights on it. So we hit a button, and they.
Big Jay Oakerson
It lights up, and we should talk like Batman. We should be like, you're safe now because of the flames of justice. Let crime people that you know know they will burn. Do you think you're gonna pull crime off in this city? You're gonna burn the flames of justice.
Robert Kelly
Dude, I like it.
Big Jay Oakerson
I don't even like it. I love it.
Robert Kelly
I don't say we get jackets. I say we get hoodies. Yeah, we get hoodies and we get chain wallets. But it shows what rank we are in the flames of justice.
Big Jay Oakerson
And the different kind of chain wallet. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
It's almost like a belt.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. It's like prospecting.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. And we use the chain wallet to tie people up. It's also handcuffs.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. You have to bring back, like, the hair of a homeless that you beat up in order to earn your beret. You have to be. You're a prospect until then.
Robert Kelly
And we keep our nunchucks in our asses.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yes. And we carry nunchucks but they're only in our asses.
Robert Kelly
And we pull them up. We don't use them. We just put them under the person's nose. It. Is that what you want?
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Is that what you want?
Big Jay Oakerson
The flames of justice have spoken. And it smells like in here, man. We got to take back the night, dude. For Val. We're avenging Val, who's very much alive.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
This city is unsavable, man.
Robert Kelly
It's bad. The DA Is a da.
Big Jay Oakerson
What do you mean? Why don't you give us an opportunity first?
Jacob
I'm League of Shadows with the.
Big Jay Oakerson
This.
Jacob
This city needs to be raised. Forget it.
Big Jay Oakerson
We will do it.
Robert Kelly
No.
Jacob
Saving it.
Robert Kelly
You want to just burn the city down and start over. But that's how. That's not what we stand for. We stand for justice now, right?
Big Jay Oakerson
Hey, my black friend, maybe everybody on the train car doesn't want to hear your music.
Robert Kelly
Even though G loves it. And he can name every song and every band member.
Big Jay Oakerson
I mean, this is my jam. But you seem to be making those old folks uncomfortable.
Robert Kelly
I mean, I love Cool the gang.
Big Jay Oakerson
If you continue this behavior, the flames of justice will make you burn. You all burn.
Robert Kelly
But after we beat somebody up, we have a dance. We have a move.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, that's what we should do. Yeah. And then we just. Then we hit them. Then we. Wherever. We leave their bodies on the ground. We outline them in the. You know, like the crow. We do like the.
Robert Kelly
Like lighter fluid.
Big Jay Oakerson
With lighter fluid, we make the bonfire logo. And then before we leave, you've lighted on your thing. And he goes. And he goes. These goddamn flames, adjusted, are taking the city back into their own hands. I want to work with you, Commissioner. There's no commissioner here, just a police chief. Right, Sorry.
Jacob
Can you guys talk to my landlord?
Robert Kelly
About what?
Jacob
About the rats.
Big Jay Oakerson
Send him on the subway.
Jacob
That he won't do anything about.
Big Jay Oakerson
We gotta sit on the subway. We run the subway.
Robert Kelly
As you see, we don't. You're gonna have to talk to Brendan Sagalo, Mike Feeney, and Mike Canney. For the suburbs.
Big Jay Oakerson
They're the boots on the ground.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. They're the boots on the ground. In the burrows, me and Bobby are.
Big Jay Oakerson
Making sure the subways are safe for all.
Robert Kelly
Where the flames of justice world up in Queens, they're the borough burns.
Jacob
Gotcha.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, well, you have. You have a rat problem.
Jacob
The garbage area I've had. He won't get rid of the massive amounts of garbage that they just leave it there for weeks on end. I want to put my garbage out in the bin.
Robert Kelly
You screamed.
Jacob
I opened it up and a rat went. Launched at me.
Robert Kelly
But how?
Jacob
And then I went. Well, I don't want to.
Robert Kelly
You screamed.
Jacob
I didn't.
Robert Kelly
You screamed. No, buddy, you screamed.
Big Jay Oakerson
Was it more of a yelp?
Robert Kelly
What? You. What did you do? You yelped.
Big Jay Oakerson
You jump on a chair and take a broom.
Jacob
I'm still reeling about my china joke earlier. Can we move on?
Robert Kelly
No, no. Jacob, Jacob, Jacob. There's no way I went like this.
Jacob
Whatever.
Robert Kelly
No, you didn't.
Jacob
Yes, I did.
Robert Kelly
You yelped. You yelp. Which is a man scream.
Big Jay Oakerson
I would have, too.
Jacob
It was the worst noise I've ever made.
Robert Kelly
I have to hear it. I have to hear it. I have to hear it. You have to reenact it right now. You're going out with your traps.
Big Jay Oakerson
You remember I made these noises.
Jacob
It was.
Robert Kelly
Was it at night?
Jacob
No, it was day. That's why I only go there in the day, because I think in the day it's safe.
Robert Kelly
You think rats don't come out in the day?
Jacob
Typically, no. They wait for them to take. They take over the night.
Robert Kelly
Can I say something? They're not bats. That's bats, right?
Big Jay Oakerson
They do dwell more at night, though.
Jacob
They do a little bit. They're a little rat nervy at night.
Robert Kelly
Okay.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
So. So you go. You go. You go to put your trash out, you grab the lid. You think you're safe, because it's not.
Jacob
I missed the. The rat entrance that they chewed. There's a rat size hole. Yeah, in the. In the lid.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah. Do you think we summoned them when Generation Kill played the Rat King live here? Do you think they've been coming? They're looking for them.
Jacob
I'm so ashamed of the noise I made.
Robert Kelly
What is it?
Big Jay Oakerson
Was that. It was that audio of you. Did you speak to them in rat?
Jacob
No. That's rat talk for a. I made you flinch.
Big Jay Oakerson
You got punch buggies? The rat went up and went.
Jacob
It was this close.
Robert Kelly
Do you see that? Yeah, that. That screams like that all the time.
Jacob
The thing flew like.
Robert Kelly
Is that the guy who watches women's soccer? Yep.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, yeah, it does.
Jacob
Maybe it does know that I watch women's soccer.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, it knows.
Robert Kelly
Oh, it knows.
Big Jay Oakerson
It picks on anybody.
Jacob
It's twice as bad as you think.
Robert Kelly
I want to know. I think I'm gonna do my. What? I think it was, and you do yours. I think you open the lid, you're taking your trash out. You're nervous. You're nervous.
Jacob
You're nervous. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
You look around. There's no rats. You open the lid, you hear, all's.
Jacob
Well with the world.
Robert Kelly
You hear this, and you go, go. And then you get manly. I say you go, girl. And then you become manly. You get your composure. You're like, God damn it.
Big Jay Oakerson
You punch brick dust off the wall.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. God damn landlord Bobby.
Jacob
Now I'll tell you the truth. That's way worse than what you described.
Big Jay Oakerson
I'm gonna talk to this Chinese.
Jacob
There's a twist to the Jewish prick. There's a twist to the story.
Robert Kelly
What is it? You had no underwear.
Big Jay Oakerson
It wasn't a rat. It was a dog.
Jacob
No, no, no. It was a rat.
Robert Kelly
One of your slippers, size of a.
Jacob
A kitten.
Big Jay Oakerson
It was wearing your old pants.
Jacob
I'm here. The bins here. I open the lid, and there's no noise. I hear you. You know, like when the. Your brain doesn't have time to comprehend what you. The noise.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. When you did that joke earlier about the china and the same thing happened.
Jacob
The brain didn't stop me from saying it.
Robert Kelly
No, I couldn't, because my brain shut down.
Jacob
So the only. I hear two seconds of rustling a second, and then this rat goes, like, right in front of my face.
Robert Kelly
I'm sorry. What did it do?
Jacob
And then. I'm not saying it again.
Big Jay Oakerson
Why? I loved it.
Jacob
Because he has it on tape.
Robert Kelly
No, I just. I didn't hear it. I was. What it.
Jacob
Do you hear the rat? That thing?
Robert Kelly
The beginning. It did have a. It flew like it had.
Jacob
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
How'd it go?
Jacob
Good, because it literally launched off the. The garbage. The trash.
Big Jay Oakerson
It was waiting for this moment.
Jacob
And ten feet into the. Into the. To the neighbor. The other building.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's a regulation dunk.
Robert Kelly
And what is what?
Jacob
And I went.
Robert Kelly
What was the sound?
Jacob
And, well, you want the sound?
Robert Kelly
I made the whole sound. I want the shh. I want the lid. Then the shh.
Big Jay Oakerson
This is radio, Jacob. It's like the old thing. Okay.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. We're trying to get confident.
Big Jay Oakerson
The thunder was going.
Jacob
I hear two seconds of the. I'm telling you, half a second the thunder came. I hear. And then. And then it launches across my face. And I go. I don't want to say.
Robert Kelly
Just do it.
Jacob
And then Bobby. And then Bobby.
Big Jay Oakerson
The winner for best impression of the year goes to. Jacob Atat for trash Rap.
Jacob
But Bobby, it's not over.
Big Jay Oakerson
This is Bobby's first bonfirey. This is. This is Jacob's first bonfire.
Jacob
And then I do regain my composure like a man, and I'm like. I do that.
Big Jay Oakerson
Like, my voice thinks, lucky it ran away.
Jacob
And then here's what happens. The other rat comes out of the. Of the garbage. There's a second rat.
Robert Kelly
They're like deer, dude. If there's one, there's always another one.
Jacob
But I'm already traumatized, so I can't think straight. The second one, after I, I, I bitched.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
And then.
Robert Kelly
And then became a man.
Jacob
Deepened my voice so that hopefully somebody heard that.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
The other rat came out and went.
Robert Kelly
That's a good one. Wow.
Jacob
And then I. It ruined my whole day.
Robert Kelly
Of course. It ruined everybody's day.
Jacob
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
No, because they thought a little kid was being raped.
Jacob
Yeah. That's what it sounded like.
Big Jay Oakerson
Oh, great. There's child rape happening right in my building.
Jacob
It sounded like child rape.
Big Jay Oakerson
I gotta tell you, Christine didn't make a sound like that when that rat ran right up her body.
Jacob
It was two.
Robert Kelly
When did it, when did a rat.
Big Jay Oakerson
In front of our building, when we lived in the East Village. It was nuts. A rat just came out of the garbage. Like, the garbage was like, sit on the street.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
And we were sitting on the thing smoking, and. And it just ran out. It ran. Christine was sitting on our steps, like the stoop step, which is only three. It ran up. It ran up her inner leg, up her, like, torso. Just went, like, up and came back down and darted back into the street. Right. Pretty much just the move it did. It was crazy.
Robert Kelly
Didn't run up my body 100%.
Big Jay Oakerson
No, it was. It was crazy.
Jacob
It didn't. Jay.
Robert Kelly
Jay.
Jacob
Because I need it not to have.
Big Jay Oakerson
Happened to her so that she took it so well.
Jacob
Yes. It makes. It hurts me so much that she took it better than I.
Robert Kelly
That she didn't scream, like, it didn't run up.
Big Jay Oakerson
She grabbed it by the tail and bit its fucking head off, dude. Like V. Here's why.
Jacob
Here's why it hurt me so bad.
Robert Kelly
I can't even do you a screen.
Big Jay Oakerson
I was gonna say I smoke. I can't get to that. I can't hear that octave.
Jacob
My voice is already high, so it's. It's no problem. But see, on YouTube, I watch.
Robert Kelly
Okay, okay.
Jacob
The second one hurt me worse than the first one. The second noise out of my mouth.
Big Jay Oakerson
Because you thought you would get. You thought. You collected yourself earlier.
Jacob
I thought I had let the most unmanly thing out of me that could possibly. That I could possibly have uttered in my life.
Big Jay Oakerson
And now you have attention.
Jacob
And then I fixed it.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
I handled the situation.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
And then it.
Robert Kelly
With a manly.
Jacob
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
And then the second one was way worse than the first one.
Robert Kelly
The second one? Yeah, because the true you needed to get out. You tried to hide it.
Jacob
See, Bobby, this is why I thought.
Robert Kelly
You were a cowboy. Cowboy.
Jacob
I am.
Robert Kelly
I thought that.
Jacob
But in the city.
Big Jay Oakerson
Well, nobody's a rat rancher.
Jacob
I'm not a rat rancher.
Robert Kelly
Cowboys aren't afraid of rats.
Big Jay Oakerson
I would love though, if there was footage of you with a horse just wrangling rats into a circle. And I'm running them out of town, guys.
Jacob
No, If I was Florida, Jacob, that thing would. Would have a. A bullet through it.
Robert Kelly
Because you'd have your pelican, I'd have my gun.
Jacob
I'd have a.22 pellet through its brain.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, but without a gun, I would.
Jacob
Spend hours actually just waiting and picking them off.
Robert Kelly
Right. Without a gun, you're Bette Midler.
Jacob
No, this is. The city is sewage.
Robert Kelly
The city's bad.
Jacob
I'm not. I'm a. I live off the. On the land, on my ranch.
Robert Kelly
Right.
Jacob
It's clean living.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, yeah, but rats are a city. Iguanas, dude. Think of them.
Jacob
Yeah, but you're not allowed to shoot them here. You have to take it.
Robert Kelly
You can. You can hit them. You could hit it with a bat.
Jacob
Punch it with my fist. Yeah.
Big Jay Oakerson
You could make fucking Negan bats and.
Robert Kelly
Fucking kill Rip with. Have punched it right in its face, grabbed midair.
Jacob
Young Rip. Heavy Rip. Or a young rip.
Big Jay Oakerson
Not fat Rip.
Robert Kelly
Fat Rip would have ate it.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yeah, that's good eating right there. That's not wasted fat.
Robert Kelly
Would have barbecued that.
Jacob
I watch on YouTube. This is what hurts me more than anything. CIA agent Jason Hansen. And he teaches you how to react in. When you're being. In any situation. If you're being kidnapped.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Jacob
By Russians. He'll. He'll actually go through every scenario how to get out of a trunk. But he tell you if a guy's eyeballing you, how to react. You give him that, you stare him back in the face. Because the second you look like a. Yeah. You're a target.
Robert Kelly
Right?
Big Jay Oakerson
And that's what these rats are. Rat friends.
Jacob
But the ratched me out twice. Twice.
Robert Kelly
Him and his wife.
Jacob
I didn't know his henchmen. His little sidekick was his wife.
Robert Kelly
Wife. That was his wife. His wife. I bet his wife. He's like, honey, come out. He's a. It's okay.
Jacob
It felt. Neither of them felt any.
Robert Kelly
Now you can't. Now you're afraid to throw the trash out.
Jacob
I have not thrown my trash out.
Robert Kelly
What are you gonna do.
Jacob
I emailed my. For whatever it's worth, I throw. I don't know what to do.
Big Jay Oakerson
Jacob, you're gonna get your masculinity back right now because you're gonna eat this thick man cheese and meat sandwich made of rat. You can't have it. It.
Jacob
It's two weeks before the show. I always. You know how bad. You know how I go into full diet.
Big Jay Oakerson
See, I was giving you full chance to like regain your masculinity.
Robert Kelly
I'm amaz all the same.
Big Jay Oakerson
Yes, they are.
Jacob
I'm in full training mode for the show.
Robert Kelly
Can you tell me what this is again, Jay? This is steak and cheese.
Big Jay Oakerson
Chopped cheese.
Robert Kelly
Why do they call it chopped cheese?
Big Jay Oakerson
Cuz it's cheeseburger.
Robert Kelly
Oh, I love cheeseburger.
Big Jay Oakerson
But we're taking this again. This is a taste of Pueblo food truck.
Robert Kelly
Oh.
Big Jay Oakerson
Authentic Mexican and Latin foods.
Robert Kelly
Are we supposed to eat on?
Big Jay Oakerson
Well, no, but show's over pretty much. We're just gonna take a bite here.
Robert Kelly
We'll take a little bite.
Big Jay Oakerson
We want to give them their shout out. What if you spit it right back out and this is a sucks. I'll tell you what looks good.
Robert Kelly
Looks good. Ready?
Big Jay Oakerson
Okay. Okay. I'm getting flickers of tomato. The fondant's nice touch.
Robert Kelly
It's got a little spice to it, but not too much. Wow. That is good.
Big Jay Oakerson
That's delicious.
Robert Kelly
That is ridiculously good. That is good.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's. I'd actually argue there's a good chance this is better than a Boston steak and cheese.
Robert Kelly
You're out of your mind. You're out of your mind. May rats attack you tonight.
Big Jay Oakerson
Don't you wish that evil on me, you son of a bitch.
Robert Kelly
Crawls right up your chest. I hope it crawls up your shorts.
Big Jay Oakerson
God. You were ready to get a pivot for all of your great behavior today. But that right there hurt me.
Robert Kelly
That hurts me that I didn't know I was on a pivin scale.
Big Jay Oakerson
You were a pivot scale. You were about to get yourself a pivot.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. I take it back.
Big Jay Oakerson
It's too late.
Robert Kelly
No, I can take it back.
Jacob
I want. I'm returning my piven because of your behavior today. No, the rat behave. I can't even. I don't deserve a pivot for the rap story.
Big Jay Oakerson
I understand. It's okay. It's okay. You know what though, Jacob? Again. That self awareness always gets me. You're getting that pivot back, my friend. Look at that million one chance can do that again. Again.
Robert Kelly
Let's hug it out. I'm going to say this. Why Philly cheese steak better than Boston steak and cheese?
Big Jay Oakerson
Wow. Wow. This has been a real experience.
Robert Kelly
I'm going to say that. If there's one thing you guys do right, it's not socializing.
Big Jay Oakerson
No.
Robert Kelly
It'S steak and cheese.
Big Jay Oakerson
Cheese and steak. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Cheese, cheese, steak. I'll say it for you. Cheesesteak. You guys. You guys make a fantastic. Probably the best cheesesteak out there because.
Big Jay Oakerson
You just got yourself a cheesesteak. Morgan steaks.
Robert Kelly
I don't want that. I want a pivot. Oh, did that shoot out?
Big Jay Oakerson
I'm sorry. There you go. There's a pivot.
Robert Kelly
All right. What the.

But you also get yourself a cheesesteak.
Robert Kelly
I'll take the cheesesteak. You guys do do a cheesesteak, right? And you know what you do? This is why you're good. It's not all the same thing. Every place does a different version a little bit. A little bit bit. Some have the sesame seed bun, but.
