Dave Anthony
Oh, yeah, I do. Sorry. I think this is a guy that I hit in the parking lot of the gas station trying to call me.
Gareth Reynolds
Put it on the show.
Dave Anthony
I told him. Yeah, hold on, let me. Hey, this is Corey Forester. Can't talk right now.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Knuckle deep.
Dave Anthony
Leave message. I really. He was in a company car. I think I'm okay. I didn't hit him that hard.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We didn't know he was in a car until just now, by the way.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, he. Dude. And by the way, I didn't even really hit it. My door hit his door.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know, door war.
Dave Anthony
But I was. You know, door thing. Oh, are we recording?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, door work. Go ahead. Three, two, one.
Dave Anthony
We are.
Gareth Reynolds
I'm getting this.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What about the people who call you Corey? Ryan Dorister? What about Dory?
Dave Anthony
Hey, this is the pastime. And here comes a new segment called.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Are we recording?
Dave Anthony
Y. Yep. Christmas present. Christmas present that I got you both today and will never mail you. But it's the thought that counts. Dot com. That's a new segment. I don't know.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I have. I have to do the. Legally, I have to do the intro before the bits.
Dave Anthony
Well, just know what's coming. Daddy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, my God. It's already started. And it's the past times. You know what it is? It's a podcast. Our guest admitted it's. We got better numbers than his. Listen, you know what we do each week? We go through a newspaper from a random date in history picked out by none other than Dave Anthony. I, Gareth Reynolds, have never seen it. And neither has this week's guest fan favorite, Corey Ryan Forrester. Welcome back, Corey.
Dave Anthony
Hey, everybody.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Happy to have Dave's dad. Yep.
Gareth Reynolds
He's wearing a fascist hat.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, let's do it. I'm waiting. I want to be on the right side when the hits the fan.
Dave Anthony
Well, yeah, well, go eat some spaghetti, I guess I think is the latest.
Corey Ryan Forrester
How about this? You Corey? Yeah, you don't talk to us like that. Corey, how are you? Now, wait, what were you gonna say? You were about to launch into something and your gold on and off. So what was it?
Dave Anthony
Well, so I. Earlier today, I was at a used bookstore, which is where I often go to when I think I want to kill myself. So I'm there about three or four times a day. And I was at. I was at the store and I. I thought, I'm gonna look for you guys a Christmas present. Now, I don't know when this episode will come out, but, you know, everybody knows you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We're live.
Dave Anthony
We're okay. We're live. Well, it's around Christmas time, and I was thinking to you guys and I. I looked in the used bookstore. I was like, I want to find something for Gareth, and I want to find something for Dave and for Gareth. I picked this out for you because I know you're always worried that this little, you know, your little. The little bits and sketches you do on the road aren't always going to. You don't know. You're having a hot moment right now, but who knows if it's going to work out? So just in case I wanted you to have a backup, I got you clown skits for everyone. I thought that you could, you know, that's actually perfect. Yeah, you could go be a proper funny person, like a classically trained clown. And, you know, just in case that whole road thing where you get up there and you go, hey, hey, where are you from? Oh, from there. Oh, damn. That guy was from there to fair.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm curious where they're from. Okay.
Dave Anthony
And so I got that for you. Clown skits for everyone.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Thank you. And knowing Dave's the anti.
Dave Anthony
Well, knowing how huge of a fan of this guy Dave was, I was looking for the autobiography, but couldn't find it. I was Looking for a biography written on this person. Couldn't find it. But I did find. I guess this is sort of an autobiography written by the one Henry Kissinger. Years of Upheaval. Yes. And I got this for Dave because I know how much he loves the guy. But before you go, before I send it to you, I am gonna get it signed now. I.
Gareth Reynolds
By Kissinger.
Dave Anthony
Yes. I'm going to dig him up, burn half of him and dip into the ashes to make the signature the. His. The bone of his dick and use it as a quill and sign my name. But in Henry Kissinger's ashes. So. And there you go. Look at that guy. I mean, what a mug.
Gareth Reynolds
What a.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know, Years of Upheaval was actually the story of how they used to get him out of chairs before he died. Wow, Corey. Well, that's so thoughtful. That's the first time anyone's ever given us a gift that ever on the show. So that's really nice of you. And they are, I think, I think they really highlight the dynamic of this show pretty well, to be quite honest.
Dave Anthony
Yep. It is truly the thought that counts.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It is. Well, thank you so much. And you, you did tell your wife that this show was three hours earlier on accident and then said a word. You didn't retract that. And you sat up there and played video games for the time in between.
Dave Anthony
You are correct.
Corey Ryan Forrester
She just thinks you're in the middle of an epic run of podcasting up there.
Dave Anthony
Oh yeah, dude. She don't know what we do for a lift. Like, you know how I use what I do for a living on my wife? The same way that CEOs of company use the phrase tax write offs. Like I'll just. Will say, I'll just be like, ah, it's a write off. Like whatever anyone wants to hang out. Like, what would your wife say? I was like, I'll just tell her.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I gotta do ads. Yeah, they don't know we gotta go do Patreon.
Dave Anthony
It's also right. And she don't know what that she's heard the word Patreon so many times. I don't have one. Yeah, I do have a hero hero. We love Corey.com. you can go to it right now and subscribe, but there's so many. It's just we're so shrouded in mystery that you can always pretty much just.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Say not a lot of people frame podcasting properly. Like we're the Dark Knight. And I think that's really awesome. To put it that way. That we're shrouded in mystery.
Dave Anthony
That has to be. How y'all feel about, like, me and Trey having podcast start, like, 15 years after y'all? Y'all have to be like, you have merely adopted the podcast. We were born in it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know, it's funny because when we started, they were.
Dave Anthony
We have been doing podcasts since today. It was just us and Doug Benson.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We fought Doug Benson for this private space. When we started it, it was already a thing. And I was like, we're getting in late. Boy, was I wrong.
Dave Anthony
You were so wrong.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Holy.
Dave Anthony
You stayed. You stayed too late, I'll tell you that.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, but you didn't stayed.
Dave Anthony
No, you were there right on time, buddy.
Gareth Reynolds
Definitely overstayed. But this is how I became known as the. The Joe Rogan of the left.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, the Joe Rogan of podcasting.
Dave Anthony
Of all of them.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, Corey, what else can we promote for you? And then we'll get into this.
Dave Anthony
Well, again, I don't know what time this or what to when this episode comes out, so I just say, yeah, okay. We love Corey Dot com. That's my. That's my subscription thing. But please listen to my other podcast. I truly feel if you like the Dollop and the pastimes, you will enjoy putting on airs. The show where two idiot dum dums, me and Trey Crowder, talk about fancy culture, European history type stuff. It's. You know, we stole a lot from the Dollop. We even stole their producer, and now I have him send us stuff that you all don't use.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, very much. It's very much our show.
Gareth Reynolds
But he's not a. He's not a good producer, so, you.
Dave Anthony
Know, he's very bad.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. He gives me the worst scraps. We don't even. I scrap them. They're twice scrapped. Yeah, Potatoes sometimes.
Corey Ryan Forrester
He's giving you things we've already done. He's like, yeah, sure, just don't listen to their show.
Dave Anthony
He just loves forwarding emails, man. All day. God damn.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Big forward guy wears it out. Well, Corey, we're gonna go through a newspaper. You know, we're out of here. We're gonna guess, by the way, it's you. This appearance has been good so far, but you are the guy who did the fart voice memos open, so.
Dave Anthony
Oh, man.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know.
Dave Anthony
Is that the last episode I was on?
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, I think you did one in between.
Dave Anthony
I think I have one in between. Then I'm good.
Corey Ryan Forrester
But that one was okay. That was a shocking, shocking opener for the fans.
Dave Anthony
It was. Yeah. But as long as I've done another one since. And I'm not like, this isn't the. This isn't mine.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, you're a home run. But, yeah, this day would be coming.
Dave Anthony
Out after Pulp Fiction. You know what I mean? Like, I did a couple things.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, you've done some good stuff since obviously.
Dave Anthony
Okay.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, you do have your Hallmark movie. What. What year do you think this paper's from? Corey, go ahead.
Dave Anthony
Oh, usually you go first and you're immediately told that you're wrong.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I guessed it right the last time we recorded and was still told that I was wrong because you went over.
Dave Anthony
We play Price is Right rules. You dumbass.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You get it right.
Dave Anthony
It's.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You win the price. Right.
Gareth Reynolds
Can't hit it. You can't hit it on the head.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yes, you can. Before that be crazy rule on the Price is Right host.
Dave Anthony
They've changed a lot since Barker left. Listen, Drew Carey's all, he don't even know what's going on. He's just picking up checks for the working man. He has no idea. Drew Car actually has to pay for all those cars they give away now. They don't even actually do that.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Explains the body language. Every time someone wins one, he's like, yeah.
Dave Anthony
Oh, Drew Car just screams that from a Twitch account. It's not even on cbs.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I've seen him nudge the Plinko so that people go in the red. I was like, drew, exactly. Yeah. Sorry. The fates are against you.
Dave Anthony
Ah, Cleveland, you know, when I started.
Gareth Reynolds
Out in comedy, I did this college tour where we. We each go up and do. There are three of us. We do a set, 20 minutes each, and then we play a make, make, make me laugh game.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, wow.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
But the money would come out of our pockets.
Dave Anthony
What?
Gareth Reynolds
So if we didn't make the people laugh, like every. Because they would how much? And then they. We'd spin a wheel. So whatever was on the.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What's the matter?
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, it was like the max is like 50 bucks or something.
Dave Anthony
Well, that's everything you were making. You went to college in the slippers.
Gareth Reynolds
You do a bunch of people, sometimes you'd walk away with less money. Of course. It's terrible.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know, when I first did a college show, we did make me come and see you guys later. All right, thank you.
Gareth Reynolds
Thanks for having me.
Corey Ryan Forrester
All right, Corey, go ahead your guess. Go ahead, my guess?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, I was gonna. I was about to say I was gonna give you my first college show experience, but that would take 30 minutes, so. I'll just go ahead and guess this paper. Every time I use this method, which is that I assume that that Dave is going to pick a paper from the Civil War because I'm Southern. Then I found out Dave don't even pick the papers.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay, hold on. Corey. Corey, you're telling secret. Corey, you are telling secrets. Okay, from behind the curtain.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Corey fart member. Hurry.
Gareth Reynolds
I don't think. Has your wife. Has your wife texted you or have you gotten any texts from the guy? Look at your phone. Have you got any text from the guy? Who. Who did the.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Corey hit a guy in a parking lot today.
Dave Anthony
This is blank. In the van at the Circle K. And my boss wants to fill out a police report and said they would write it up as leaving the scene, but I haven't called the.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, I'm gonna ignore that till the podcast is over. I guess I'll stop drinking. Jesus Christ. That is clean the scene. I hit him with my door.
Corey Ryan Forrester
To be. To be clear to the audience. You opened your car door to another guy's car door and he's saying, fill out a police report that says you fled the seed.
Dave Anthony
Hold on. I'm in the middle of a live taping right now.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm not opposed to you calling him.
Dave Anthony
I know.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Okay. I'm just thinking it fun for Burns to produce if there's a 20 minute insurance.
Gareth Reynolds
Do you want me to go on me to call him?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Would you call. Is that crazy? Can Dave call him?
Dave Anthony
This is insane.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's not normal at the place.
Dave Anthony
And I was like, are we good? You got my number. He was like, yeah, boss man, we're fine. Like, you can't then say I'm leaving the scene of an accident.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, you did. You're not still there.
Dave Anthony
I mean, okay, I did. Well.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, the story shifted.
Dave Anthony
All right. Anyways, I'm gonna guess that the paper is from. Because I don't. It's like this never works out. But surely it's like your word of the day. You pick the same one every time and eventually it hits. I'm gonna say 18 and 63.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I mean, what do you know? You fled the scene of an accident.
Dave Anthony
That's right.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You did a hit. You did a door open and run an old march.
Dave Anthony
I did.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'll guess 1926.
Gareth Reynolds
Corey, you were super close. 1876.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, very good.
Dave Anthony
Didn't go over you did I win?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, I. I guess that right? Okay.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
All right.
Gareth Reynolds
Well, you didn't. There's no record of you guessing it correctly.
Corey Ryan Forrester
There is these Are recorded.
Gareth Reynolds
Whatever. It's the Tuskegee news. Tuskegee, Alabama, March 2, 1876.
Corey Ryan Forrester
See, he did cater this one towards you.
Dave Anthony
Yes, he did. Jesus, this is not gonna be good.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I got a good feeling some of.
Gareth Reynolds
Your relatives might be in here.
Dave Anthony
All right, every story is just gonna start. So some blacks moved to town.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's it.
Gareth Reynolds
They wouldn't print that. They'd print what happened after.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, that's true. Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Right in the very top corner, it says the week passed. And it's just this one sentence. The Prussian government compels bakers to keep their bread at least one day before selling.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What?
Gareth Reynolds
This is Alabama news.
Dave Anthony
You said crush depression bakers or depression pressure Prussian. Okay, so German news.
Gareth Reynolds
Up top. Germany's up top.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Why?
Dave Anthony
This is. Well, I did not see that coming. I mean. I mean, okay, I knew that Tuskegee, Alabama, at this time wasn't going to be diverse, but I guess any diversity they would have would be just different types of white people. So that makes sense.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's probably. It's probably a German. It's probably a German immigrant paper.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Ah, right. I still don't understand that. Brett Staling.
Gareth Reynolds
I don't either. I don't. They want them to keep it for a day before they sell it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
So maybe bread should be crunchy.
Gareth Reynolds
Like, I can't. Like, there's nothing about bread. Hold on to that. Hold on to that.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's a little too soft. I'm looking for something that hurts.
Dave Anthony
I mean, like. Yeah, I was gonna say, like, they're in the restaurant industry, which I've been in briefly before, you know, flailing out miserably. You would. You save the day. Old bread or whatever. And you. You would make croutons out of it. But it. But it was.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, you.
Dave Anthony
Your dream was that you didn't have leftover bread.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You don't toss the day old, but you don't go. This is a feature.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, yeah. You don't do this with it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dave Anthony
Sorry. You can't have a fresh sandwich today because you need to get an old sandwich tomorrow.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You don't understand.
Gareth Reynolds
What we learned is that Corey is the Gareth on their podcast because he just did a physical thing and nobody knows what it was.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We have Patreon.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. But I'm also the you on that podcast in that I care a lot more than Trey does, so I kind of feel both roles. It's really hard being both men. Being half a man twice is very difficult.
Gareth Reynolds
Corey's the. I mean, Trey's the trace that I'm going into my car to make. A video guy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. Yep.
Gareth Reynolds
He's. He's all about. He's one of those.
Dave Anthony
Just as I'm trying to find the non. Emergency number for the police at the moment. I guess. Why do we need a.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This is. This is. By the way, not a lot of people bring a B story to the show.
Dave Anthony
Gladly come to your place and then do a gun emoji and pay your boss.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Do. Do eggplant and then boss ask.
Gareth Reynolds
Ask first boss's number.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Eggplant and gun. Just do an eggplant.
Gareth Reynolds
Say just. Just. I'll take you out of it and I'll talk to your boss and they call him a piece of. And tell them that you've got a bunch of guys here and we're ready to come for him.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
I'll let you off the hook here and talk to him myself.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Good. And then I would do an eggplant and then a gun emoji.
Dave Anthony
That's right.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
That means different things now.
Gareth Reynolds
No, do the eggplant and the. And the. The little c droplet.
Dave Anthony
Listen, I. Yeah, yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm sc.
Dave Anthony
I'm not going to give anything about this very working class feller away, but he wouldn't understand the emojis. However, on the off chance he did, I'm not safe. You know what I mean? So there's.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I understand.
Dave Anthony
There's really no way to win, huh?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, it's. It's great. Updates are great. Keep them coming. Don't stop.
Dave Anthony
This is unbelievable. I can't.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's great for radio.
Gareth Reynolds
It's great for radio.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This is perfect. Then it comes out that we scripted this.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Right. But I still have to go to jail.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Flailing down.
Gareth Reynolds
Corey has his. Always has his text on. No notifications allegations anyway.
Dave Anthony
I do. I do.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know what?
Dave Anthony
I turned them off because I told this guy. I was like, tell your boss to holler at me because we're not involving the cops. Right. You know, and I turned him off just for this guy. I did not expect to get a. We're calling the police.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm just trying to get my lawyer together so we can head over there.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. What the.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I mean, you did hit a door.
Gareth Reynolds
I mean, the problem is you can just show the police the text exchange and be like, I've been talking to this guy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Like, yeah, that's why you should send that eggplant gun emoji asap. That's your move.
Gareth Reynolds
You know what? Oh wait. Check made him send a Picture of like just your hard dick and see.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Let's get back to the show.
Dave Anthony
Dude, I've still got one saved from like pre marriage. It's like the only time has ever looked good, you know, you just find that, you know, when you're in department stores that the mirrors are supposed to make you look more slimming. And so they put them in there. I was at some hotel and they had good dick lighting. You know what I mean? And I knew it as soon as I.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You. Are you suggesting that your penis has. Has. Has become worse because of marriage?
Dave Anthony
No, I'm suggesting that, like, you know, sometimes someone. You're just saying, yeah, it's never looked good. I'm saying, like this one.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You've got to see my penis guy. My penis.
Dave Anthony
John Goodman in Cloverfield Lane. You're like, God damn, look at that guy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, right.
Dave Anthony
This handsome man. But other than that. Okay, yeah, fair, you know, it's. Every now and then there's a good, good one.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, all right. Fair. It's fair. He's right. He's not wrong.
Gareth Reynolds
I think your deck looks like Marty Feldman.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Hello.
Gareth Reynolds
All right. Years ago, Reverdy. Reverdy. R E V E R D Y Reverdy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Sure.
Gareth Reynolds
Johnson lost the sight of one of his eyes while training Edward Stanley to fight Henry Wise. So many names after a robot racing.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This is like, so what? After a what?
Gareth Reynolds
So he was training this guy about something, a fight of some kind or something. And then they got into an argument about racing and.
Corey Ryan Forrester
But not a robot argument. Not a rope.
Gareth Reynolds
No, there's no robot involved in this. Where did you come up with robot a lot?
Corey Ryan Forrester
I. So I saw my doctor. I'm hearing a lot of phantom robots. I hear a lot of robots.
Gareth Reynolds
Corey, what's going on?
Dave Anthony
I was. I'm just making up excuses. It was not even an excuse. I'm like. The guy says, well, that's just what my boss said to do. And I can't give you his number. My business number is 423, blah blah. It's on the van, but it's going to be an answering service until tomorrow. And I'm like, well, please have your boss call me because I'm doing my job right now. I'm a broadcaster and I'm on the air. That's why I was in a hurry at the gas station. All this is true. So do you think I should just.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay, so just wait till tomorrow and.
Dave Anthony
Just be like, okay, I'll deal with it then. I'm not going to jail.
Gareth Reynolds
Just send a Message and say I'm happy to show the. I'm happy to show the police this text exchange so they know that I'm not running from anything.
Dave Anthony
Just show you're taking legal advice from.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Dave who's been to jail for killing.
Dave Anthony
Police officer so they know that I'm not running from anything, which I'm not. Okay, there we go. Good. Let's do the show. Turning that over we're dealing with tomorrow.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Let's do this. Let's do a check in. In 15 minutes. Cuz this.
Dave Anthony
Do a check, but you have to tell me because I've turned the phone over. All my attention is on you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I. I like that. As our last message.
Dave Anthony
That's it. And this is what today's. We're recording. This is Monday. I've got to leave Thursday to go to Nashville to do shows. So as long as I'm not in jail.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You're not going to jail.
Dave Anthony
Well, I know, but I'm saying I can deal with this tomorrow. And if they.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You're going to prison. But you're not going.
Dave Anthony
Dude, honestly. Okay. I think about this sometimes. Like, I know prison sucks. I get it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Sure.
Dave Anthony
I get it. You know what I mean?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Sure. But I.
Dave Anthony
But like, if you went to like White Collar, you know, let's just say you went to White Collar. I think like a two month stretch would. You know, it shows you how shitty life is.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You want the.
Dave Anthony
You know, a couple months, you could just. Off the grid.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You want the podcast you. I'm podcasting.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You're too much. What the hell is.
Dave Anthony
If I could still do that. Like Tupac from prison. You still got to let me put out my hits.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Tupad.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, Tupac. That's it. Anyways, so the bread. I'm so sorry. God, this is the. This is so much worse than the fart episode. I'm really. I'm really losing.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Way worse than the. But again, you know, that was your quadrophenia. All right, Dave.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay, so Stanley was practicing for the duel. Oh, it's a duel. So he was gonna.
Corey Ryan Forrester
So you know this is not who you want help from if you lose an eye during dual training.
Dave Anthony
Right.
Gareth Reynolds
So he. So this Reverber Johnson was training Edward Stanley to have a duel with Henry Wise. Okay, so he's training Stanley how to shoot a gun, I guess.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yep.
Gareth Reynolds
So Stanley was practicing for the duel when his bullet striking a tree glanced back and lodged in his instructor's eye.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, wow.
Dave Anthony
That's what you get, dumbass.
Gareth Reynolds
Like how the. How in the. Do you should Number one, you should be shooting, not near trees. So all over a sandwich, your instructor's bad. If you're very close to a tree.
Dave Anthony
Number one. Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
But also, if you hit the tree and it bounces and takes out your instructor's eye, everybody's bad.
Dave Anthony
Everybody.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's one of those things. If you're the instructor too, you're probably trying to play it off for a minute because then it makes you look like a bad instructor. So it's like the bullet hits your eye and you're like, yeah, dude, let's. Let's take 10ft away from these trees real quick. And then you're like, that eye's gone.
Dave Anthony
I. I don't know. I mean, I've held grudges before.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Sure.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You're in the midst of one.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, I'm in the midst of the start of a pretty good goddamn. Yeah. But like, I feel like if. If me and someone were in dual challenging mode, if I. To me, it's like the duel has to take place henceforth because if I've got time to where it's like, I gotta train for this duel and I gotta think about this, dude, I'm eventually gonna be like, you know what, can we just not do?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Not even mad anymore.
Dave Anthony
I. I don't care. Like, I just feel like I would calm down. Like. Yeah, it's not like Tyson versus Jake Paul or whatever. We're not doing a prom. Nobody's coming to our stupid little duel, you know? Like, I don't think I trained for a duel. I'm not doing a duel.
Gareth Reynolds
I do it. But when I get out there, I. I wink. I wink at him first thing.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, but it's like from quite a distance.
Gareth Reynolds
What do you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What do you.
Gareth Reynolds
What are you doing from there? No, when you first get there, you're close, and then you do paces.
Dave Anthony
You do 10 paces. What do you think? Because I've always wondered this about, like, if I was getting jumped by like three or four guys. But like, in a sexual.
Gareth Reynolds
Or is this.
Dave Anthony
Yes. Kind of sexual. So what do you think? Like, if, if me and you were dueling, right? You turn your ten paces and you turn around and look, and I'm just butt ass naked. Like, do you think you're hitting me? Do you think you're hitting me now?
Gareth Reynolds
You're like, yeah, I think I'm totally. Or no, you don't have to be bug as naked. You could just pull a little string in your pants, come down, and then you're just.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's a good one.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, yeah. Winnie the Poo it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Be like, hello, sir.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, I'm small, Ms. Small. See, I got myself in another predicament.
Gareth Reynolds
Put your head.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Or, you know what?
Dave Anthony
I just turn around on step one and blow the back of his head off. That's the move.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's the move.
Gareth Reynolds
If that. That's actually probably illegal.
Dave Anthony
Oh, yeah, I would think.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, then, what is it? That guy's probably within our rights.
Gareth Reynolds
Because you know what then happens then his second, I think, shoots you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. But then that second, the whole time is like, this dude gonna take 10 steps. You're in his head. Nobody wants to duel a guy who turns on eight.
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, no. Yeah, you turn on eight and you go, I totally lost count.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Oh, Judo Mississippi's. Oh. I don't know what accent that just was.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's beautiful.
Dave Anthony
That was. That was perturbed. Jar Jar Binks's moms. Oh, you so sad.
Gareth Reynolds
Well, okay, so this. So this now says the duel was then prevented and nothing but Johnson's iron frame saved his life.
Corey Ryan Forrester
So the guy lost an eye for nothing.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, for a. Yeah, it never happened. But he's also a shitty instructor, so he shouldn't have an eye. You know what I mean?
Corey Ryan Forrester
I don't know if that's true, but. Okay.
Gareth Reynolds
Yep.
Dave Anthony
I want to see the movie about him rebuilding his life as a dual instructor, having one eye. You know what I mean? Like. Like, what is Francis Ford Coppola been wasting his goddamn life with making this megalopolis thing? Like, he should have done this. This would be great.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
And Russell Crowe has to play him.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Honey, it's time. It's time to think of another profession. This. It's just time. You need to.
Dave Anthony
No, God damn it. Some of these boys don't know how to deal.
Gareth Reynolds
What about a pirate?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Turn around.
Dave Anthony
You could be a monocle model.
Gareth Reynolds
Don Pedro ii, the Emperor of Brazil. Did you know was there. I didn't know there was an emperor of Brazil.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, yeah, he's the guy.
Dave Anthony
Well, Dave, let me ask you this. You're the person on the show, I'm not going to say the smartest, but the one that cares the most about books.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, my God. Butterflies. I'll be right back.
Dave Anthony
So, like. But back in the. Back in the day and still now it's like, some people have emperors, some people have kings, some people have czars. That's all the same goddamn thing, right? Like, Emperor of Brazil just means King of Brazil. Right. And I would totally think that Brazil would have a king. It's Just that to me, Emperor was always like, that's Asian, you know. Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Emperor doesn't feel. Yeah, you're right. Emperor always feels weird to me. A king makes sense. But you've got to be talking about the. The ruler of. Of Brazil. I would. I mean, Portugal.
Dave Anthony
I would think a king sounds like it could go benevolent or not, whereas Emperor sounds like I'm here to up.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's such a bad system. Why have the penguins adopted it for? So, I mean, the penguins have never afraid from the Emperor lifestyle.
Dave Anthony
That's true. They haven't. They're monogamous.
Corey Ryan Forrester
They co parent really well.
Dave Anthony
They really do. I mean, and if they're sterile, they just like foster a rock or something. I've heard.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I. I'm actually doing that right now, to be honest.
Dave Anthony
Fostering a rock.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I fostered a rock for about two and a half years.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
My son Clark, he's hatching soon, don't you worry. It's so funny that I take him out.
Dave Anthony
The reason that we're in this predicament we are in our country, is because a lot of people who voted had a pet rock when they were a child.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Meaning what?
Dave Anthony
I just mean that that was to them a good thing and a fun.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, that sort of made them be like procreations the way I just think.
Dave Anthony
They'Ve been sniffing lead paint their whole life. And so you can just sell a. A rock to that kid. You know what I mean? And then they grow up and they vote against their own self interest. Rock boy, I call them.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, Rock boy is a good one. I know. I. We did that in my school. And then my. I. I tried to suffocate my rock and my mother came in and I was like, die you crap in my life.
Dave Anthony
Then I realized that like, I had a Tamagotchi, which was just a digital rock, which is dumber, but a lot still.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I was like, parenting's really hard.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, give the boy a rock.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Give the boy a rock.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay, while you guys are doing rock chatter, I learned the history of Brazil.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Okay.
Gareth Reynolds
And Brazil was of course a Portuguese colony until 1911, 1822, when they declared independence. And then it became the empire of Brazil. And so it was Brazil and Uruguay was the. Was the empire ruled by Pedro the First. And now we're on Pedro the First.
Dave Anthony
Pedro Racist to laugh at that. But that's really funny to me. Pedro the First.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Any of the first is weird.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, the first is definitely weird. Just Pedro, Pedro, Pedro, and then Pedro Jr. Pedro. Yeah, you never hear that, though. A junior, you know, Frederick Jr. The king of blah, blah, blah. They have to be the second because that Junior makes you sound like a emperor.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Little Pedro.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay.
Dave Anthony
But also that. Go ahead. I know we got a paper to get through. I know. I get so curious about this stuff that, you know. Go ahead with your podcast.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Go ahead.
Gareth Reynolds
Don Pedro ii, the Emperor of Brazil, and the Empress Teresa. Christina will.
Dave Anthony
Teresa.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, Teresa Christina. She's white.
Dave Anthony
Christina's fine. But I'm having a problem with Teresa because the first Teresa I ever knew was my aunt who would suck dicks through that hole in her throat right before Christmas to make enough money to get us all stock cars that she still stole anyways. Like little, little ones. The match book ones. So Teresa, to me seems like a very present name. This might be the Tiffany problem, but with Teresa.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Go ahead.
Gareth Reynolds
Well, you asked in the fart.
Dave Anthony
Come here, boy. Santa's got a big basket this year.
Gareth Reynolds
Well, we just got a little taste of this out.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm just looking at our numbers, Dave. They are dropping. I'm just looking at the live numbers here.
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, okay. Teresa Christina will leave for the United States on April 1st with a numerous retinue and $1 million pocket money.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, wow.
Gareth Reynolds
Philadelphians expect to relieve his majesty of about $500,000 during his stay in their city. And they're gonna rob along every day. They're just gonna.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Straight up, Robin.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. Take everything they can.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Dude. I invented something called the D battery.
Dave Anthony
My sister. Please take them off your nipples.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I mean, I'm covered in tapestries that are being ripped off of me.
Dave Anthony
Oh.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Not my tassels.
Dave Anthony
This one is.
Corey Ryan Forrester
They're beating me with my tassels. Oh.
Dave Anthony
Hoisted by my hand. Oh.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh. They found my spare petard.
Dave Anthony
Oh.
Corey Ryan Forrester
A double hoisting.
Dave Anthony
Oh. I challenged you to a duel.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The royal toad is red. Oh. Oh. My bottom is the color of a half cut grape fruit. I've been beaten badly with my own fashion. My purse.
Dave Anthony
Oh, no.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Half of it's gone. Where's my boy? Where's my rock? My boy's gone. They took my boy.
Dave Anthony
I've abandoned my rock.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I've abandoned my rock.
Dave Anthony
I've abandoned my boy. Oh, me. Sometimes you just gotta. Sometimes you just gotta let the kid hit the hoop with a stick.
Corey Ryan Forrester
There you go.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. A breed of tailless dogs has been discovered in Africa.
Dave Anthony
That's called a pig.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yep. Tail and a snout has been discovered.
Gareth Reynolds
Are they talking about hyenas?
Dave Anthony
I think it'd be.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Discovered. It was discovered. Yeah. People there actually. Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
My God, you've got a no tail dog. You don't know you've been sitting on a gold mine this whole time, do you? Here, boy. Here, boy. Here. Oh. Oh. I'm also being attacked.
Dave Anthony
The royal chode is the color of.
Corey Ryan Forrester
A half eaten grapefruit. Milan, they're fighting over the beetroot colored show. Two of the tailless dogs. This.
Gareth Reynolds
This is a sarcastic comment on the declaration that nature is perfect. Think of a tailless dog in a harmonious universe. Talk about the wonderful mechanism of the animal kingdom. Why, the common honeybee is so clumsily built that he, or rather she cannot sting an enemy without fastening her barbed spear and pulling out her own abdomen. She cannot defend herself against assault without committing suicide. The barbs ought to have been committed from her java javelin. But this generation is pessimistic. Good night.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This is so.
Dave Anthony
This is 1872 Alabama.
Gareth Reynolds
I think that's comedy for the. Yeah, I think that's comedy for this to some extent.
Corey Ryan Forrester
But it's also just like, get ready, bees.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Who looks at bees and it's like they're doing it.
Dave Anthony
It's just funny. To me that's like the civil War ended it immediately. Their editor was like, we gotta fill these pages. Anybody got any B stuff? No, no, I meant like not A. No, you have some actual B stuff.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, well, it's B and it's about bees. So how dumb is it that they commit suicide every time they sting?
Dave Anthony
I swear to God, I wish I could. As the. The veteran newspaper guy from Alabama. I'll tell you what, it's like. I'm killing myself every time I roll over and see that next to me.
Corey Ryan Forrester
These krauts are giving people fresh bread. This paper is going to be really good.
Dave Anthony
They got. They got some good ideas about what to do in 40 years.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Just let them hang out.
Gareth Reynolds
It is the opinion of a well informed New England paper that the Massachusetts legislature would excursion 200 miles to see a hog pen if anyone purchased free passes and gin.
Dave Anthony
What?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Who? Look, I'm just floating it out there. I'll travel anywhere to hang out with pigs and get drunk.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, that's what they're saying. Was the word circus used at all in that sentence and I missed it?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Nope, nope.
Dave Anthony
You said a lot of circus.
Corey Ryan Forrester
There's a lot of.
Gareth Reynolds
They're just saying that the New England legislature will go wherever booze is, no matter what the event.
Dave Anthony
And a pig spin.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And pigs.
Gareth Reynolds
And pigs. But.
Dave Anthony
And a pig pit. Well, they said pig pen. They didn't say Anything about the pigs? Did they?
Corey Ryan Forrester
I would assume pigs were part of it. I just. I just need a fenced in area I can't escape.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, right. I mean, you would, right? They did, but they didn't. You know, having a pig pen is.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Different than having heard of a werewolf. I'm like that, but with gin. I'm a gin wolf.
Dave Anthony
I turn into a pig, you don't want me around.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I wake up, my clothes are in tatters, I don't remember what I've done. And you need to fence me in.
Dave Anthony
I'm like a tailless dog from the wild Sahara. Oh, no. Help me.
Corey Ryan Forrester
He's in a tree.
Dave Anthony
Why didn't you savages tell me you had discovered it already?
Corey Ryan Forrester
All the fabrics caught on the branches. My wife is dead.
Dave Anthony
Does it matter what story you're rating? When it comes to Gareth's tangents, do you think he's just got a couple plug and plays where it's like every now and then he just has a vibrate that goes off and he's like, all right, go into Dave, time for the old man.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Dave, Dave. That's funny. I think it's a siren. Okay. Dave said something like on an episode recently where he's like, no, hold on, go. Something like that. I was like, that's a good old title. He was like. It was like, just starting again. I was like, here's a joke from 20 seconds ago that still feels right. He was like, just watching him, like, stop reading. Like, all right, finish. Finish it up. Try it out, boy. Cry it out.
Dave Anthony
I am the Gareth of Poa.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's true.
Gareth Reynolds
So this is a little section called Grave and Gay.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Wow.
Dave Anthony
Grave and gay.
Gareth Reynolds
So gay means happy.
Dave Anthony
So then. Yes. And grave means depressed.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. Okay, okay.
Dave Anthony
So they're. They're happy. This is like a bittersweet, bittersweet section. I guess. I don't know what to expect from this. It's like, here's a fun tale and then. But boy, you're not gonna believe this afterwards. Why not just all gay, right?
Gareth Reynolds
Why not just have, you know.
Dave Anthony
Well, they can't fit. You can't fill an 1870 Alabama paper with all gay. Let me tell you something right now.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, not working.
Gareth Reynolds
Happy orchid paper.
Dave Anthony
Way more grave.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
It's an unpleasant fact that what your friends call self. Self possession, your enemies call brass.
Dave Anthony
You know what my enemies.
Gareth Reynolds
I don't know. That one's.
Dave Anthony
I don't get it. Your enemies call brass. Is brass another word for like being like a hoarding bastard or something?
Gareth Reynolds
It must be my brass. Must be negative A Brassard.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Thank you. Good one.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It been 96.
Dave Anthony
Well, you were never going to get another chance to say brassard in your life. I get that feeling where you're like, look, is it plus? No, but there's. I thought it and there'll never be another time for me to say it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm not willing to sign off on the not eight plus part of that either, but okay.
Gareth Reynolds
Ms. Kirby of Caldwell county recently lost eight children by diphtheria in such quick secession that. That four were buried together. Holy.
Dave Anthony
Is this under the gay?
Corey Ryan Forrester
I don't think. Damn me, I'm over the moon. I have a new lease on life before the pitch of the four in one is dark.
Dave Anthony
That's very dark. But I mean dude, you're going to want to deal. Like this is pre TVA Sal.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh yeah, no, you know what I mean.
Dave Anthony
This is during the week.
Corey Ryan Forrester
She was probably pushing for six. She was like zip.
Dave Anthony
I mean, if I'm not mistaken, Johnson is president right now. Right? Like reconstruction is not going well in the South.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Did you say Ben? John Benjamin. Benjamin Johnson. Ben Franklin.
Dave Anthony
Andrew Johnson. Oh, Andrew Johnson. And I'm not sure of that actually. No, he wouldn't have been president because this is eight years after the Lincoln assassination.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
This has been Andrew Johnson's predecessor. Which either way, reconstruction is not going well in the South. And for the record, they deserved it. My point being is that when you see a good 4 for 1 on a casket, baby. You know what I mean?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Literally.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. You're saving. You're saving money. I mean, you're saving money.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We'll go.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I mean, you know what we're gonna do? We're gonna go head to toe. Head to toe. That's great. Look at them. They sort of lock in like ikea.
Dave Anthony
Some of them didn't have legs. What we do about them?
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's the dip.
Dave Anthony
Sugar took Junior's leg. Can we get a discount? Sugar done run off with his leg.
Corey Ryan Forrester
25 off indeed. Not the boy.
Dave Anthony
You still lick his nub.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And we'll be right back.
Dave Anthony
Sweet. I should have left a long time ago.
Gareth Reynolds
A jawbone 60ft long is to be exhibited at the Sentinel by Massachusetts. Put it in the women's department, by all means.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What?
Dave Anthony
Did you know that some dogs had a 60 foot jawbone?
Gareth Reynolds
I think. I think they're saying women talk a lot. Is that what.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
They've got a bit.
Dave Anthony
They jaw off. Yeah. Okay. All right.
Gareth Reynolds
Hey, I think.
Dave Anthony
Hell yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
All Right. Cory's a blooding because he. He got it, not because he agrees with it.
Dave Anthony
Well, okay.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay.
Corey Ryan Forrester
All right.
Dave Anthony
We'll take that.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yep.
Dave Anthony
I just realized that there's a sombrero in frame.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Of my. That's not a good look.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's okay.
Gareth Reynolds
It's fine.
Dave Anthony
I don't know who get. Oh, a dead lady. I got that from her.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Now, see, now it took a turn. See, it was fine, and now it took a turn.
Dave Anthony
She wanted me to have it. It's. I didn't even buy it. It's like she wanted you to have this. And this is huge sombrero. And I'm like, I can't say no. So got this dead lady's sombrero.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Wow.
Dave Anthony
You know, it's weird.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. Yeah.
Dave Anthony
I'm just saying I'm not. I'm not racist. I'm very weird.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, no, I always find the people who aren't racist say, I'm not racist. I've always.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. I'm just saying I don't have a big sombrero for the reason you'd think. And I don't know what reason you'd.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Think, but of course I'm gonna tell you something you're gonna want to hear from a lawyer when dealing with this car door situation.
Dave Anthony
What's that?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Less is more.
Dave Anthony
That's true. I'm so gonna. I'm going to jail. I'm gonna admit to. I've never done in my life.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I killed it.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
And I did go there for beer. He saw me coming out with.
Corey Ryan Forrester
All right, let's do an update after this because we got it.
Dave Anthony
Okay.
Gareth Reynolds
It is said that a woman of Xenia, Ohio offered her husband a divorce the other day for a seal skin cloak.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This is a danger kill setup.
Gareth Reynolds
That was no sign, however, that she was particularly anxious for the cloak.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You hear about this woman from Zany? Her husband offered her a cloak. A cloak. I tell you.
Gareth Reynolds
That'S the end of.
Corey Ryan Forrester
All right, Cory, have a look.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay.
Dave Anthony
Okay. I'm on it. Genuinely terrified.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Glad that's. This is good for me.
Dave Anthony
So the last thing I said was what Dave texted me. I told me to say. I said, I'm happy to show the police this text exchange so they know I'm not running from anything, which I'm not. And his text, which came at 7:35, so like pretty much right after. And I just put down. Just said, I'll show them. So he's just going to show the cop. By the way, I'm staying at my fucking house. I'm not leaving.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Can I not leave?
Dave Anthony
Can I leaving?
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's the Southern attitude. Can I pitch. Can I pitch the response.
Dave Anthony
No, I'm not saying another fucking word.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Let me just pitch the response before you walk away.
Dave Anthony
Okay?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Send him the fart memo.
Gareth Reynolds
Dude.
Dave Anthony
I'm not going to. Because of that. Oh, wait, hold on. But if I do, it'll have to come up in trial. Like, it'll be taken as evidence. Yes, but here's my. I don't. I'm not saying anything else because he's already like, I'll show them. And it's. I'm like, this is me being like, okay, you heard what I said, which is that I'm not leaving my home. Right? You'll. You show them. They want to come here. Let's fucking.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Let's go.
Dave Anthony
But I'm not. I've had a couple of drinks since then, as I. You knew I was doing. I'm not willingly driving to meet the police somewhere. Also, dude, fuck them. You know what I mean? Like, just fuck them. This episode is going to come out in four weeks, and I'm going to be.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This episode is going to be played at trial.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, at trial, for sure. And. But I've said many times in here, I was not drunk when this happened. I was there to get booze to do this show because I've been sick all week.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Were there to get drunk?
Dave Anthony
Yes. All right. I'm not checking again, but there's not gonna say anything again because, yeah, I. You know, I didn't respond. Yeah, I'm going. I'm going to prison now. I'll never hear from these people again. They're gonna get bored with this.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I can't wait.
Dave Anthony
Me either. I'm not calling it tomorrow. I can tell you that right now, buddy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Unhinging right now. I'll tell you what I'm not doing. It's calling them tomorrow. All right?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, I'm not. I'm not to do. I got a podcast, dude. I've got a podcast. I got bonus episodes.
Gareth Reynolds
And, yeah, you're gonna do this through insurance, right?
Dave Anthony
No, I want my premium.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay.
Dave Anthony
No, I'm gonna ignore them till they go away.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You've got to get door insurance from my guy.
Dave Anthony
That's true. Dude, it was nothing. There was a little black mark on it, but it was literally just like the scrape of. My car is black. Just a little tiny of the paint. Whatever. Like, you can scrub this. I could do it right now. I've done it a lot, you know. You know how Many times I've hit my wife's car every day. Every day?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. Well, that's. That's not a good thing to say, to be honest with you at court.
Dave Anthony
That's true. All right, what's the next story? Which give us something gay, huh?
Corey Ryan Forrester
No more grave.
Dave Anthony
I like the grave.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay, what's this? A North Carolina editor raves. Look where you will. What a labyrinth of world of tangles and misfits, Everything jumbled, lopsided, ill assorted and muddle t fluxomed. Here a president with a peanut peddler's soul, their scavenger beneath whose ragged waistcoat throbs a hero's heart. Here, a senator governor's wife whose rich brocades and laces envelop a galvanized oyster wrench. Or worse, they're a smutty fizzed chairwoman whose dinghy tatters enclose the spirit of a martyr. Here, courage, gratitude and affection wrapped in the hide of a dog. There, baseless and brutality swaddled in blood, cloth and fine linen. Two legged donkeys bring in all our legislative halls and dieting at our demonicos and their infinite superiors in every worthy quality and qualification Munching course straw in a thousand county stables could quadruple men and bipedal swine. Every fellow married to the wrong wife. The mul mated with the eagle, the hedgehog with the swan. Pasha. Pasha.
Dave Anthony
It's all blind luck.
Gareth Reynolds
The whimsies of fates shaken dice.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What is this?
Gareth Reynolds
I don't know.
Dave Anthony
Well, first off, I'm gonna need to know how to spell Pasha. Pasha. I'll try to it. I'll try to interpret. What is just.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
At first I literally. It said North Carolina editor raves. I thought was like, okay, this is going to be a like. Like critic. Well, a. Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Ra.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You've got to go see chorus.
Dave Anthony
And then I was like. I was like, is this like a play? It sounded like you were talking about someone describing a theatrical performance of Pinocchio. Man, I thought this before you got to the donkeys, but then you got to the donkeys and I was like, wait. He said some about politicians. So they're definitely talking about democrats. Which back then democrats was a very different thing. They controlled the South. Right. But then you said. And then I was like back to here's here was my thought. Is that like people back in this time used to eat mud for dinner?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Sure.
Dave Anthony
And they still sound. And even the dumbest of them sound so much more intelligent than our smartest now. Like the language, English language. Used to be such a beautiful tool to wield. And now we're just like, I take, hey, that president, you know.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. Two things. One, you're definitely correct. I watched this Chris Hedges rant. Not rant, but where he's talking about reading. Actually reading.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And he was like, you have to incorporate actual reading into your life. He's like, we cannot be not reading.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The other thing is people were eating mud.
Dave Anthony
Oh, yeah. For dinner. Not for like lunch. Dinner was mud.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, sorry.
Dave Anthony
Lunch was bugs. Lunch was bugs. Breakfast was fear. That's what they ate. That's what they all had.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Lunch was bugs.
Dave Anthony
Any bug. Any bug.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Lunch, bug buffet.
Dave Anthony
Any but lunch was bugs. Breakfast was fear.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
And then you snacked on, you know, a bygone time. This was the south in 1873.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, you snacked on a dead child, probably.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. You hear about that boy's Lego? Chopped off right before they threw him in that grave.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Falling off the bone.
Dave Anthony
These are my people. Oh, Henry died in the left up. Heard it's got some sugar on it. Gotta go get it, get it. Henry's mama's gonna be sad.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And we're looking for Corey Ryan Forester over a door murder.
Gareth Reynolds
He drove through the parking lot with his door open and he hit 33 people.
Corey Ryan Forrester
His wagon wheel smashed my wagon wheel.
Gareth Reynolds
Corey, by the way, I also watched Hee Haw growing up. I did you on heehaw too.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, the other day, didn't we?
Gareth Reynolds
I don't think it was a. I don't think it was like a southern thing. I think that yeehaw was nationwide.
Dave Anthony
Like, yeah, there were two channels when you were born. And so it was just on one of. Oh, dude. I loved he haul. But like, here's the thing. A lot of like, yes, okay. It was definitely targeted towards my people, but the people on there, like Grandpa Jones, Roy Clark, Buck Owens, Mini Pearl, for God's sakes, Junior samples. These were genuine, in my opinion, comedic geniuses. Like, I think they were hilarious. Their timing was great. Like, sure, some of the jokes are corny, but like they were literally standing in a cornfield delivering them. They were self efface it. Like they knew, you know what I mean? And I. And that show like was so formative from my comedy and I still watch it. Me and my granny used to watch it all the time. And now talk about wor way worse things. I didn't get my clean, you know, he haul was a very clean family show. I strayed away from that. You did a phenomenal show.
Gareth Reynolds
You have a filthy Mouth.
Dave Anthony
I'm a dirty boy.
Gareth Reynolds
You do a lot of butthole stuff.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Admit it. Well, look.
Dave Anthony
No, no, no. I don't do a lot of butthole stuff. A lot of butthole stuff has happened to me and I report it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Right.
Dave Anthony
Do you know what I'm saying?
Gareth Reynolds
I just tell people, are you doing buttholes?
Dave Anthony
Oh, right. I didn't even consider that's what you meant. I do talk about a lot of butthole stuff. Yeah, I'm a butthole comic. That's a nice genre. Come here. Corey Forster, the butthole comic.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's like.
Gareth Reynolds
It's like the Outlaws.
Dave Anthony
But you like to. With some other comedy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, we don't do comedy the way that other law abiding comedians do.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, some of you may have heard jokes from some non butthole people. That ain't what we do around here.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This next one's called Brown. I'm gonna start doing that before my jokes intro them.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This next one is called Electronic Checkup.
Dave Anthony
So.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay, here's one that you'll. This is what you said would happen at the beginning. This one is titled Old Massa's Grave.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, no.
Gareth Reynolds
Hang on to your butthole.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, no. Cory, spit take.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, he did. Oh.
Gareth Reynolds
This is the title of a new and beautiful work of art.
Dave Anthony
Oh, no.
Gareth Reynolds
It is a 14 by. I don't know what that is. It's. You can't really see. It's blurred something 9 inches. So it's big in size and artistic in design. Finely engraved and printed on heavy plate paper. In the foreground is. Oh. In the foreground is seen a young Confederate soldier who has just returned home from the war, looking sad and thoughtfully at his father grave, which is shown to him by an aged black servant.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh. What the.
Dave Anthony
Sorry.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That is a crazy. It commemorates the moment when a black man is sad because he's probably going to go free pretty soon. And he's showing the white man how tough it is because he lost his. It's a moment that is so relatable. It's happening all the time.
Dave Anthony
We didn't beat them Yankees. You gonna have to let Stumpy Steve go.
Gareth Reynolds
To the right. The calm river indicates peace and rest as the harbinger of brighter days to come.
Dave Anthony
What the.
Gareth Reynolds
It is a picture that will touch everything.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This is like msnbc.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, yeah, it really is.
Gareth Reynolds
It should find a place in every Southern home. One copy will be sent, mounted on a roller and paid and postpaid on receipt 25.
Dave Anthony
It costs 3/5 of a cent.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Wow.
Gareth Reynolds
I mean, that's Something.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, racism is what that was.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Some artists, like, it's really important. Yeah, I got it. Right.
Dave Anthony
I mean, can you look a little.
Corey Ryan Forrester
More sad that this is all over for you, sir? No.
Dave Anthony
Okay. Chisel, chisel, chisel. Remember, remember, no slaves. You're gonna have to do it all.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No. My poor hands.
Dave Anthony
God, that would suck though. Like, on the real.
Corey Ryan Forrester
My poor hands.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Real bad day. You just like, you wake up, you're like 12, you didn't go to war, you didn't do anything, and now all of a sudden you got chores. You know, you're like.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Me. I've never heard that distillation.
Dave Anthony
Oh, my God.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know, that is holy. Well, it's.
Dave Anthony
Wow.
Corey Ryan Forrester
To make a. The. The. It is so funny. It is fun. But the way that white people, like, works hard every time it falls on them. Yeah, actually it was. We talked about this before, Dave, where they. Alabama, like, passed the law because they were just like, there's these migrant workers and all this. And then all the white people had to do it. They were like, I quit. Like, yeah, so fast.
Gareth Reynolds
What if we don't eat?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, yeah.
Dave Anthony
They can't make up their mind on whether or not. And this is not. This is well worn territory, but like whether or not migrants are taking your jobs or whether they're lazy dead beats. And it's like, dude, pick a lane.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Like the intersection of, okay, you like comfort and now you have to do the work for it. Right?
Dave Anthony
Because like, dude, when I was a kid and. And nothing was political and I know that that stems from the Internet not being a huge deal when I was a kid, but I, I remember a South that was literally firmly apolitical. That was just like them both, far as I concerned. And they really like that. Like, I knew a bunch of Clinton voters who are now, you know, Trump voters or whatever.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
But like they all.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Every single one of them.
Dave Anthony
Before. I'm just saying before. Like a lot. Yeah, they are before a lot. Before the Trumps or whatever came and told them, by the way, be mad about Mexicans.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Not.
Dave Anthony
No one had anything but positive. They were just like, God damn them hard working. I tell you what, man. That some bitch will have a fence put up. I'm weird. You know, we had a big.
Gareth Reynolds
We had a big anti Mexican wave in California in.
Dave Anthony
Well, I get it. That's where they all are.
Gareth Reynolds
It came through and they're just like, they're all taking a job, blah, blah. And it was just this beheaded thing and they passed laws. Then it just went away.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Then went back to normal.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, yeah. You would think. Like, I know. It's. It's. It's a big deal in Texas, obviously. And it's like, again, it's. Because that's where they are, you know, it makes sense, I suppose. But like, again, I'm telling you, like, before, whatever it was that the GOP decided, like, we gotta. We got to make it their fault for everything, everyone.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Like, don't be wrong.
Dave Anthony
There were still racist jokes, but they were all, like, kind of positively racist. They were all racist about how this group. What I mean is, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, they were generalizing, but the generalization was about how hard working and family oriented these people were, not that they were lazy and taking CS all the time.
Gareth Reynolds
Do you think you've gotten out of the hole?
Dave Anthony
I don't give a.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The good news is he's a white guy. He digs it half as fast.
Dave Anthony
That's right.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Let me tell you.
Gareth Reynolds
And then goes home to his family.
Dave Anthony
Let me dig at some bits for me.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Let me tell you. When I knew the border was a big issue. When I was in Alaska about a month ago, and the senator running from Alaska, the Republican, was talking about border security.
Dave Anthony
My Lord Jesus Christ. My Lord.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's when I went, okay, if you.
Dave Anthony
If you're the governor of Alaska, if you could just get 10 less people to commit suicide, you've done a remarkable job. And you're going to talk about the border.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The border.
Dave Anthony
10, 10 human beings, by the way.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You built a. You got a border. You got a. The Lord blessed you with a border.
Dave Anthony
Let me tell you where Mexicans do not want to go. Alaska. Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
All you should be running on in Alaska is like, I'm gonna get more women up here.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'll tell you. You'd ever do a gig where you're.
Dave Anthony
Like, he's gonna show up.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, I talk. I talked to the Teletubby son. Do you ever do a gig where you're like, oh, what? Like, it's almost like if you went on a date and they just kept thanking you for going on a date, you'd be like, like, I'm. I'm here on my own marriage. Like, relax.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The people at the show like, God, thank you so much. I was like, I don't think I should have come. You are too thankful for me to be here.
Dave Anthony
I feel that same way.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
I'm like, you know, it's my job, right? Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I was like, that's the whole. I'm happy to be here. They're like, it means a lot.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. When you go to. Yeah. Like, when you're in a place like that where people like, we can't believe you came.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You must be in a bad spot professionally, right?
Dave Anthony
This, you're not. You're on the way. You're either on the way down or on the way up. You're up at the bottom of the on the way. Yeah. Yeah. And they always ask you, they go, where are you staying, by the way?
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's the best.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Where are you?
Corey Ryan Forrester
You.
Gareth Reynolds
The place I experienced that the most was I did a comedians a comedy tour with like Patton and those guys. Orlando, losing their mind. That there nobody could ever come. Promise me, promise me you'll come back. Promise me you'll come back.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Come back is another one. We're like, settle down, Please come back. What do you have an eta and when you'll be back?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, we, we had that experience in Orlando too. And you know, we have a large gay fan base because we're heroes. And there's a lot of gay people in Orlando because it, there's a theater district there, which is why you have all the doubles for Minnie and Mickey. And. And they would tell us the same thing. They're like, we can't believe you came to Orlando. And we're like, well, nobody told us it was. We won't come back.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, I'm not coming back.
Dave Anthony
Thanks. We had no idea. Like, we figured if they could have a Disney World. Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I was like, maybe in Eugene, Oregon. And they were all like, this means a lot. Oh, I won't be.
Dave Anthony
Eugene's crazy.
Gareth Reynolds
Like, but look, I will say being in Orlando, that was the first time I was ever like, oh, this is what a meth problem is.
Dave Anthony
Like, yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Orlando is like meth times 10. You're like, what?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, but dude, Eugene, Oregon, we were doing a show there one time and like, I, I don't know if I had just gotten off or whatever, but there was a bunch of like, I'm just gonna say wild looking people running around, right. Varying degrees of odor. Right. And I was like, well, it's Eugene, whatever. But then I started noticing, no, that's deaf. And I was like, oh, how sweet of them. They let like the homeless people volunteer here and they made me give them a meal or something like that. And I was like going up to a person and telling like how cool that was. And they're like, so just, just be cool. But actually, the mental hospital had a breakout tonight and that's what's going on a bunch of mental patients had broken out and just they saw a door and they came in and I wonder, I wonder.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I I, I'm. I' kidding. I wonder if we did the same venue. Cuz I pulled up and I was like, it's right.
Dave Anthony
The mental hospital is right next door. Yes, you did the same.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I pulled up and I was like. And then I went in. I was like, is everything cool around here? They're like, no, not at all.
Dave Anthony
Not at all. But thank you for being here.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I was like, okay.
Dave Anthony
Go Ducks.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. All right. They're gonna win it all. Okay. This will be the last one.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Okay.
Gareth Reynolds
Ms. Cross of Papa Michigan. Papa. Thinking her husband was unduly attentive to his brother's wife, was thereby made jealous. One evening. One evening he left the house and she guessed he had gone to meet his sister in law.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Law.
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, so she's thinking he's cheating with my sister.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Sister in law. Which that happened a lot back then.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh y they ate mud. And anyone back then, your sister in law was like.
Dave Anthony
Only not your wife until your wife died.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
You know, because like your wife died. She. Your sister in law just moves over one notch. So like makes sense. You're going to want to try that out.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm glad I bought a spare.
Dave Anthony
But it was true. We've all seen the patriot.
Gareth Reynolds
So Ms. Cross followed stealthily and discovered not a Leah liaison. She dogged him to a place where he was joined by two brothers.
Dave Anthony
Oh, the miss Cross crisscross going on.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This ain't grave.
Gareth Reynolds
And thence kept them in sight while they took a drunken stranger toward a lake dark. It was a murder.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh no.
Dave Anthony
Boy, just when you're waiting on a butt.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, that's a twist. Oh, it's worse.
Gareth Reynolds
And then she went home and this the stranger was robbed and drowned. And her testimony is used in the trial of the three brothers.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Holy.
Dave Anthony
So she thought her husband was cheating, but turns out he was a murderer.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. He's taking care of his family.
Dave Anthony
I was about to say people's lives weren't worth anything in 1873.
Gareth Reynolds
Thank you.
Dave Anthony
That guy was gonna what, live two more years, have his foot chopped off and then have somebody, you know, parlay.
Corey Ryan Forrester
For how much Alabama so light on limbs. As Corey's suggesting it was just no limbs.
Dave Anthony
Hello, hello, Alabama the footless.
Gareth Reynolds
This is Michigan.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Go fighting phantoms.
Dave Anthony
That's why you know country music. They have that, that stomp.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
You know why there's not two one stop one.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, that's.
Dave Anthony
You know what I'm Saying a footless bunch, we are.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. Poor Stomp guy. They think I'm gonna lose Stomp, dude.
Dave Anthony
But. But the balls on that woman to snitch on her man in 1873, like, I really respect.
Gareth Reynolds
She probably still couldn't get a divorce. Probably.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Absolutely not.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, so let me get this straight. He wasn't cheating and you won't ask?
Dave Anthony
Ma'am, you're going to prison too, you know.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Ma'am, you're under arrest for not understanding how cool your husband is.
Dave Anthony
You know, time served.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, that's the. Arresting her. Go ahead.
Gareth Reynolds
So before we go, is there a clothes on our texting exchange?
Corey Ryan Forrester
I was curious about that.
Dave Anthony
Let's. I hope not. Oh, hey, Corey Chickamauga just left. I assume he means police. And I showed them your text and told him it wasn't a hit and run or nothing. You gave me your info, and he took pics of the text and got your info, then said everything should be fine. Well, that is not the climactic story ending y'all were hoping for. But it does go to show you that in this country, as a white man, if you ignore something long enough and get drunk on it, it will go away. Thank you, Jesus. Praise God. God, I've been saying it.
Gareth Reynolds
I've been saying it.
Dave Anthony
Amen, Father God.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, listen, you can hear Corey on the He Haw podcast. And, Corey, thank you again for joining us. I'm so sorry you brought a plot. You've brought great energy. You've been in an attic drinking alone for three hours.
Gareth Reynolds
What's. What's great about the hit and run thing, which he's clearly a criminal, but.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And he's admitted to it on air.
Gareth Reynolds
We had a beginning, middle, and an end like it. We did it fit into the hour.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, it was perfect. It was perfect.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, Pedro. One, two, and three.
Corey Ryan Forrester
There's no better time to send a fart memo.
Gareth Reynolds
Hey, and don't you talk about this on your podcast. This is our. We own this.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And if you're listening, Burns, don't you dare give him any scraps.
Dave Anthony
I'm happy to not talk about this ever again, and here's why. Because y'all were really cool and on my side about it, but Trey would have been trying to get me arrested this whole time. He would have. He would have been like, hey, I'll be right back. And he would have called the Chickamauga police and been like, hey, listen, he's lying to you. So. No, this is a y'all story. A y'all story. Exclusive Also, I'm not telling my wife. And if I told. If I told it on Putting on Airs, which is my podcast with Trey. His wife does listen to it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
She does.
Dave Anthony
You know, his. Trey's wife listens to it, which is why every week I open with welcome to Putting on Airs. Katie Crowder's a huge stupid. Then she gets mad. Maybe she'll forget the next five minutes, you know, but no, she'll definitely find out. So I'm going to keep this one from my wife. And frankly, I'm. This is a need to know basis, I think.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, you just reminded me. I'm going to start saying Ben, frankly, when I do things like that.
Dave Anthony
Ben Franklin.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, Ben, frankly, I mean, at the end of the day, Corey, thank you, everyone. Listen to Putting on Airs and go find Corey at the Chickamauga Police Department. Thank you.
Dave Anthony
That's right.
