Corey Ryan Forrester
And Doug, there's nowhere I wouldn't go to help someone customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual. Even if it means sitting front row at a comedy show.

Hey, everyone, check out this guy and his bird. What is this, your first date?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, no. We help people customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual together. We're married.
Dave Anthony
Me to a human, him to a bird. Yeah, the bird looks out of your league anyways.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Only pay for what you need@libertymutual.com Liberty.
Dave Anthony
Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Well, you're the guy with the fart file, you know.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. And you remember last time I told you guys that the fart files were missing? And then I was like, yes, they were in the Epstein files. I got caught farting on which, you know, I told everybody there I was like, I fart on 18 and up. That's my game. Yeah, but you get there, you don't
Dave Anthony
ask questions, sneak behind you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You know what I'm saying? You know, if you're in an or, you're in an R rated movie, you assume everybody there is allowed to see the movie. You know what I'm saying? You just assume. But no, I genuinely. I thought I was just high. I have lost the fart files. But fret not, fellas, I'm working on new ones. Matter of fact, I think I sent y' all the first batch, but I'm not releasing until I'm, I'm. This is going to be more of a concept fart album. So I'm not releasing a single because it wouldn't make sense with all of them.
Gareth Reynolds
First of all, you. You had me worried. When you say you're not releasing, I think thought you meant you were just holding your fart. Yeah, but you're talking about the actual.
Dave Anthony
The files.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I do that often. You know, like how you remember when you were a kid and like the best farts. And by best farts I mean the most powerful farts were always after you'd like, left your first date or you got out of church or a funeral because you were nervous and you'd been holding it.
Dave Anthony
My friend Steve Berg calls it Shackers Gas.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's tremendous. I'll name the track that Shackers Gas. So that's one of the things I'm trying to capture is like the different farts that like. And then I was thinking about like dude cards of humanity. So simple, why not farts of humanity? And so you press a button, you hear a fart, and the person that the game is. People have to guess what Produced that fart. Is that a grief fart? Is that a taco fart or is it mostly air?
Gareth Reynolds
Grief farts a thing.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Grief fart's a thing.
Dave Anthony
I think he's trying to say gravy.
Gareth Reynolds
No, no, a grief fart where you're sad and you're anxious and it creates a specific kind of fart. Remember the farting security guy?
Dave Anthony
Welcome to the Past Times. It's a podcast. Someone's doing it, and it's us. Our guest has never done one. You know, we do here 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, the great Corey Ryan Forrester.
Corey Ryan Forrester
How to do Everybody. Hey, not.
Dave Anthony
You're one of the. One of the main. You're one of the guys, Corey.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I mean, you know, people are gonna
Dave Anthony
see this and we're gonna hear and people are gonna be like, oh, yeah, that's gonna be one of those.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That makes me so happy. Per Reddit, it seems, because it's very weird. Like, I followed the dollop Reddit for years before we became friends, and then, of course, years before I came on the show. So it's odd to be scrolling through Reddit and then see yourself out of context, right? Like, I'll see. And I'm like, whoa, I didn't post it. Whatever. And it's usually people on the dollop Reddit wondering. They're like, hey, it's been a while since Corey's been on, and the last time he was on, we think he may have committed vehicular manslaughter of some kind. Is he in prison and I'm not.
Dave Anthony
It says a lot about the heat you bring that. The vehicular manslaughter, I completely forgotten about.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yep.
Dave Anthony
Well, that.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
I mean, baby, yeah, you really. You pack it in.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I got that Broderick charm.
Dave Anthony
Fardis Bueller. Corey, what's going on? You're in a new little. You normally are in what I would call a teenager's attic, but now you seem to have stepped it up. Is it the same room with a background? Is it still around you? Are there still what you call raccoons or future meat?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Actually, it's really funny you say that. I am in generally a way more redneck area. You have a studio, but. Yeah, so I'm at my sister's house where out if looking out my window, I can see the pigs, I can see the chickens, and I can see other things that I can't say.
Dave Anthony
Right.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, no, they. Well, first off, I don't know, because I don't think they have to wear their robes if it's just them hanging out together. You know what I mean?
Dave Anthony
Like, they don't do a bunch of Labor Day. Yeah, I know that one. It's tough for them.
Corey Ryan Forrester
But, no, I. My. My studio is at my sister's house, mainly because I lost Internet one day, had to come over here, and then I realized, oh, it's easier to work when you're. And, you know, in this. It could be a husband. A husband would do this, too, if the woman worked at home. When.
Dave Anthony
This is what we call the business. Getting ahead of something. Getting it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, get. It's a lot easier to work when some stupid ain't screaming at you all day.
Dave Anthony
Listen, favorite. Or do you want to call your
Corey Ryan Forrester
wife the B word?
Dave Anthony
My guy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I know, but I said it could have been a man, too.
Dave Anthony
So what? Will you at least walk through the version of what that would sound like if you were. If it was your husband, so we can at least counter what you just said?
Corey Ryan Forrester
So if I'm a woman working and the husband's being annoying.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, or you're a man and your husband's being annoying.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Either one. I'll be both. Okay, so I'm the woman working. Click, click, click, click, click, click. Hey, honey, Excuse me. I need you down here for a second. Hey, I'm sorry, darling, but, you know, as I've told you, even though I'm home, I'm not really home. I'm. I'm actually working. Okay. Oh, yeah. Well, if this was the 40s, I'd come up there and take you over my knee, lady.
Dave Anthony
What do you think about. No, Excuse me. Sorry. To be clear, the roles remained the same.
Gareth Reynolds
I'm. I'm a little actually concerned that he thinks in the 40s, women were being spanked.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, but. Oh, yeah, that's. That's what I mean. He.
Corey Ryan Forrester
They were.
Gareth Reynolds
Because it seems like this. It seems like you just started like a porno.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Is it. The women were spanked? You didn't know women were being spanked.
Dave Anthony
This is a great side podcast, first off.
Corey Ryan Forrester
First off, art reflects art reflects society, and then society then in turn reflects art. So it's sort of like a circular thing, such as the American dream. And by the way, I'm about to say a word here that I don't mean negatively, but with my accent, it's going to sound that way. But the American dream as we know it, the two Story house with the white picket fence was actually dreamed up by Jewish Hollywood producers. I'm. I mean this, and I don't mean it in a bad way, right? When a lot of the producers in Hollywood who were Jews that fled Europe, right, they come over here and they take a gamble on this thing called the Nickelodeon, right? Oh, it's the cat's pajamas. Well, they were just putting on screen the things that they want. Their. Their vision for America, like what they dreamed of and what they were escap. And thus that became the model for how we actually live. Hollywood dictated that. Now, reversely, back in those days, in many films, you would see a. And this is not in a comedy, a movie where when a woman back talked a man, he would put her over her knee and spank her, right? Ricky Ricardo did it to Lucy as a form of punishment. And it was seen as like, yes, sometimes you have to slap a woman. I used to spank a woman because they're children.
Dave Anthony
So.
Corey Ryan Forrester
So you sit here and you tell me that this never happened. And I'm telling you that you just don't know the history of television, you idiot.
Dave Anthony
All right, let's. Let's. Let's officially start
Gareth Reynolds
put in my place.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, he just put you over his knee. It's faked. You sure did, Corey. You know what we're going to do? We're going to guess what year this paper's from. No context you get to guess. I would say that I always lose,
Corey Ryan Forrester
but I don't know.
Dave Anthony
You've been pretty lippy towards Dave, so there's a chance I have a shot today.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
So what year? What year? Give us a year.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The thing about winning and losing, though, is it's objective. It doesn't matter how Dave feels about me. If I'm right, you know I'm going to be right.
Gareth Reynolds
That's right.
Dave Anthony
Don't say that's right. He's such a weirdo.
Gareth Reynolds
He's right.
Dave Anthony
Oh, good Lord.
Gareth Reynolds
Right.
Dave Anthony
He is right.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I'm gonna say this is from 19 and 44.
Dave Anthony
I like that. Guess I'm gonna. I'll go 1888.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You're wrong.
Gareth Reynolds
It's 1950.
Dave Anthony
Real good.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Didn't go over either, baby.
Dave Anthony
Champion once again.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Suck it. You.
Dave Anthony
You've really come into the house of this podcast. Have been quite aggressive towards each of those.
Gareth Reynolds
That's how you do it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Eli came into New England and beat Brady'. What do you want to do?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, two times.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Two times.
Dave Anthony
All right, well, as. Let's just start. Where. What is the paper from the old,
Gareth Reynolds
well, it's the Atlanta Dixie Clansman. His old employer.
Dave Anthony
Oh, God.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That is my old employer.
Dave Anthony
What happened there, Corey?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, you know, I, I, I wish I had a funny story, but they let me go two days after I renewed my contract. So, like, I genuinely don't know, like, I don't know what happened.
Gareth Reynolds
They, they turned in. He signed the contract and they turned in and some guy was like, no,
Dave Anthony
no, this guy is in the fart file.
Gareth Reynolds
We told you not to do this.
Corey Ryan Forrester
In attempt to get my job back, I emailed them. Is it because I'm a gay black? And they haven't returned my emails, so I don't know.
Dave Anthony
Just.
Gareth Reynolds
That's fair. This is going to get a lot of letters.
Dave Anthony
You like seeing yourself on Reddit? You said. All right, let's party.
Gareth Reynolds
Dave, did you see what Fluffy said?
Dave Anthony
No.
Gareth Reynolds
Yesterday, Fluffy did something.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, no.
Gareth Reynolds
Fluffy, Fluffy got a star on the Hollywood Boulevard and someone, Some, someone or just. He brought up Saudi Arabia and he said that.
Dave Anthony
An amazing call.
Gareth Reynolds
He said he didn't care because he, he, he, he took the money to buy a house. Okay.
Dave Anthony
Oh, Riyadh.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Okay, it was a house. Never mind. That's fine. Oh, you, you used it for something you wanted. We didn't think you'd do that.
Dave Anthony
That's, I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was a charity for you.
Gareth Reynolds
He makes it sound like he didn't have a house. He has six houses. He has a warehouse attached to it so he can keep, keep his Volkswagen VW bus collection at the correct temperature.
Dave Anthony
Let's, let's do this before we start very quickly.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I got another Fluffy thing. There's no way I'm going to fit it in, so. Go ahead, guys.
Dave Anthony
Go ahead. Well, we can start shooting arrows across the bow at Fluffy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Here's what I call stories that sound like the setup to an old man racist joke, but actually aren't because they just happen. Me and Fluffy used to have the same management. And one day I was sitting on the couch and he walked in holding, I swear to God, in his arms four Chihuahuas.
Gareth Reynolds
What?
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's holding four Chihuahuas.
Dave Anthony
That's a Taco Bell item.
Gareth Reynolds
Why would you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Why?
Gareth Reynolds
Yes, you get, you can get. The crunchy ones are better.
Dave Anthony
I'm a soft shell Chihuahua.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. Why?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, why? Is a good question.
Gareth Reynolds
Giving them away? Like, what?
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, they were just, they're his person. They were his personal Chihuahuas and he brings them there and I guess he doesn't put them on leashes. He lets them run around the way
Dave Anthony
that Corey says Chihuahua, it's pretty great. He really likes the Wawa. Say it again.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Hold on, hold on. You say it first.
Dave Anthony
I want to hear you say it then. Chihuahua. Say it again.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Chihuahua.
Gareth Reynolds
You hit. It's because you. You.
Dave Anthony
It's kind of gonna. It's going to corrupt how I say it. Because you're Wawa. But hold on. This is what I would say. Chihuahua.
Gareth Reynolds
That's what I just said.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, but yours is wrong. We're upset.
Gareth Reynolds
One time I was racist a shuttle in Vegas and it was packed and a Mexican guy got on and he just looked at all the people and he went, hi, Chihuahua.
Dave Anthony
That is a great.
Gareth Reynolds
One of the best moments.
Dave Anthony
That's what I said before I threw Lucy over my knee for a spanking. All right, let's start.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's what I would say if I was a Chihuahua and explaining myself to an alien.
Gareth Reynolds
Just so. So Fluffy's on the board. We can take swipes of Fluffy from now on. Because that's insane.
Dave Anthony
People don't know. And then we'll start. People don't know how much they have to pay for these Hollywood stars. It's a shitload of money.
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, It's. It was $10,000, like, 15 years.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, it's like 50.
Corey Ryan Forrester
50, 60 now.
Dave Anthony
So anyone who's getting.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's why they always say, like, I can't believe someone's just now getting theirs. I'm like, yeah, that's because they just now decided to get theirs.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
They usually do it when they're old and retired or when their career needs a little bit of a.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Exactly. Yeah.
Dave Anthony
It's a.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And that's why you pay for it. It's a PR stunt, which, by the way, I got no problem with. But, like, no, you know,
Gareth Reynolds
and more people need to. On the Trump one.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Are people pooping on it?
Dave Anthony
Oh, yeah, there's poop.
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, there's been a lot of poop on it. Someone destroyed it last week again. Yeah, it gets destroyed a lot, too.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Going to drone some poop over it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And this is separate from the other poop of your vile city.
Gareth Reynolds
Excuse me.
Dave Anthony
Wow. Why don't you go out and roll with the pigs, you little animal. Go ahead.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I know, dude. Everybody that talks about. There's just. There's everywhere in California. It's like we. I, Dude, I step in horseshit every single day of my life.
Dave Anthony
Let's be honest. There's. There. The human stepping in human is worse. I've done both.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's so much worse.
Dave Anthony
Stepping in human is a terrible moment.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Listen, I was trying to walk back. It is insanely worse.
Dave Anthony
It's real bad. It's demoralizing.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's a heat. When the heat hits it.
Dave Anthony
Yes.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, my God.
Dave Anthony
Oh, my God.
Gareth Reynolds
That's nice.
Dave Anthony
Chihuahua.
Gareth Reynolds
The Atlanta constitution, Tuesday morning, February 7, 1950.
Corey Ryan Forrester
By the way, fun fact, this is when it's called the Atlanta Constitution, not the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Because there was the Atlanta Journal and the Atlanta Constitution. One was very pro Democrat, one was very pro Republican. And then I believe in the 60s
Dave Anthony
centrism, they came together.
Corey Ryan Forrester
So to make it balanced.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Which is important. And it's gone well. All right.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, it's gone great.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. They fired me.
Gareth Reynolds
We're about to fton. Chief Ellis hunting trip was spoiled. He lost his dogs.
Dave Anthony
Oh.
Gareth Reynolds
Fon Police Chief Neil Ellis has gone a hunting. And it literally says a hunting. Yep. But for different quarry than he planned. The chief had started for South Georgia to hunt birds, but his two dogs got away from him on Flat Shoals Avenue. They were last seen at Ormwood and Moreland avenues. Wait, if you're.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Why was he hunting near an avenue?
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, it's really me. Because sometimes there's avenues out in the middle of, like, in the country. There can be.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's true.
Dave Anthony
They have streets. But Austin Powers hunted birds on the streets all the time.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Hey, go ahead.
Gareth Reynolds
But I gotta say, if your dogs like you, they come back to you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
They do.
Dave Anthony
It is interesting. Well, I think for anyone who's upset by the fact that they ran away, we should point out those dogs are dead either way.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And let's also understand that he's not upset that he lost dogs. He's upset that he lost tools.
Dave Anthony
He lost birds. Impact. Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
I. I didn't realize. I never thought about this until recently, but when I was growing up, a guy across the street from me was a hunter and he had two hunting dogs. And he always kept them in kennel and crates on the side of his house. They were never inside.
Dave Anthony
That's.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That.
Dave Anthony
That drives me crazy, dude.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's. I knew these people. The people that I knew, these were relatives. They. These were this. Funnily enough, these were Chihuahuas too. These people. I know they used to.
Dave Anthony
They.
Corey Ryan Forrester
They just had a separate place away from their house, this big kennel where they just kept all these dogs. And then once a day they would go feed them and then leave. And I was like, selling them, whatever. And I was like, they're like, no, they're just our dogs. And I'M like, but you don't, you don't want, like, you don't really want dogs. Like you have them in a whole set also.
Dave Anthony
Then you also go, well, okay, the alternative is they're in a pound. Which is, which is what they're in, though. Yeah, I know, that's what I mean. But. But maybe if they're in a kill shelter, it's like, is it a lie? I've gone down that path.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I don't think any thought was put in. I think the kids wanted dogs and the parents were like, all right, but you know, you're gonna have to, you're going to have to.
Dave Anthony
You got to go out there once a day and pour food on the ground. And that's pretty much where it ends.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. And I was like, I don't think you like. I don't think you like dogs. I think you just think that you have to have dogs.
Dave Anthony
Now you do that with kids. I'm listening. Go ahead.
Gareth Reynolds
I don't heard that. Am I the only one who thinks dogs should be imprisoned in your backyard?
Dave Anthony
No, I meant go ahead with the paper.
Corey Ryan Forrester
They are cops.
Dave Anthony
Okay, let's all, let's all slow down.
Gareth Reynolds
One is acad, One is a black and white setter with Nelly stamped on her collar. And the other a liver and white pointer with the name Spot on his collar.
Dave Anthony
By the way, this. I know we're a while ago, but just putting the dog's name on there isn't really helpful information. No, I mean, they print the address of everyone in the newspaper. Why not throw your address on there? Yeah, Just be like, oh, cool, I know this dog's name. That's it. Yeah, Spot.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Hey, Spot. Yeah. Every dog in the world in the 1940s comes and runs. Every one of them was named Spot.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, Spot.
Gareth Reynolds
Well, it was. Legally you had to name your first dog Spot.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Because it had a spot. The first guy who did that is like on account of the Spot.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. And if you go to. If you're a Pentecostal church, you have to kill your firstborn dog after you get baptized.
Gareth Reynolds
What just happened? It's some southern.
Dave Anthony
Put a fart noise in there. It's called the fart punched
Gareth Reynolds
pistol. Gamble proves fatal to professor.
Dave Anthony
Now that's a headline.
Gareth Reynolds
A 25 year old Princeton professor put a pistol to his head and killed himself Saturday night in what authorities listed as a game of Russian roulette.
Dave Anthony
All right, let's talk about it. Why aren't we playing Russian roulette more? I mean, look around us. It's time to gamble on this low stakes existence.
Gareth Reynolds
Shouldn't that be a fraternity thing?
Dave Anthony
Completely agree. Should be a political thing.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
Anytime there's a runoff, it's Russian roulette.
Gareth Reynolds
What if. What if. If you got elected to congress, we. We elect. We elect twice as many. And then they have to.
Dave Anthony
I like that. I got another pitch. If you win the. You win the electoral college. You're the president. Just because we live in the era of God is anointing these people. We put the ultimate test. You put a revolver at the swearing in all that whole day. You do the whole thing. But it ends with one round of Russian roulette.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yes.
Dave Anthony
Because, you know, maybe.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And since maybe the government we're talking about, I'd like to propose an amendment to that. It's Russian roulette. But it's a double barrel shotgun, loaded to the hilt.
Dave Anthony
That's good too. That's also pretty good. Yeah, that's. Yeah, that's a different version. Yeah, that's like if roulette had one
Gareth Reynolds
number sawed off shotgun.
Dave Anthony
I'll put it on seven green.
Gareth Reynolds
Again sought off.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And you know what? Politicians love a sure thing. You know what I mean?
Dave Anthony
We do. Well, it also begs the question, what do they call roulette in Russia? Go ahead.
Gareth Reynolds
Russian.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Whichever one live gets potato game.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Or. But it has to be confusing if you want to play actual roulette.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Right.
Gareth Reynolds
I would just like to.
Dave Anthony
Should I do it in a Seinfeld voice?
Gareth Reynolds
I just want to pause a moment.
Dave Anthony
What do they call Russian roulette And
Gareth Reynolds
Russia is that just roulette I think they call.
Dave Anthony
Or do they put a gun down and you end up blowing your brains
Gareth Reynolds
like they call it a seven. A guy. A 40 year old guy who's fucked 17 year olds. Is that what they call it?
Corey Ryan Forrester
I think you call him a Hebeo file.
Dave Anthony
That. That term big in our culture now is a sign of some disturbance.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's bad. Somebody has. Somebody had a great joke. I can't remember who it is. He's like. He's like. Look, I don't want to get into the weeds on this thing, but technically, you know, this dude is not a pedophile. He's a hebe a file. But you know what? You know what you sound like if you say that? A pedophile.
Dave Anthony
John Marco Ceretzi.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, it was. It was jm.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
He got me so good.
Gareth Reynolds
So it's really funny. Gareth.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Dave.
Gareth Reynolds

I tasted it.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay. Police said friends of Dr. Allison Williams Bunkley told of watching him pull the trigger twice. But nothing happened twice. Oh, not. That's not Russian related.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, that's a suicide.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's exactly.
Dave Anthony
Man took his own life and he just was like, I'd like some people to have. I'd like to shock some people.

He refused. He refused to quit, they said. And laughing.
Dave Anthony
Remember, professor, there is a bullet in there. And now for my fourth attempt.
Gareth Reynolds
And laughingly announced he'd do it just once more.
Dave Anthony
I'll do it once more just to test the faith. Now that it's 50 cucumber sandwiches with the crust cut off.
Gareth Reynolds
That attempt sent a.32 caliber bullet into his right temple. He died at Princeton Hospital.
Dave Anthony
From what? Wow.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Vaxed.
Gareth Reynolds
Doc.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Probably. Actually, he probably was vax. Because in the 40s they were pretty. That was a popular thing to do, you know, and everyone wanted to do it. It made you cool.
Dave Anthony
Well, I don't know though. But have you seen. Have you seen RFK working out in jeans? That's pretty good too.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I have. And let me tell you the That's. Everybody keeps talking about the. The dumbest things about. They're like, oh, all he wants to do is show that he's tough. And he. We want to see this. It's the jeans that we need to be focusing on. It's the jeans.
Dave Anthony
Major problem, dude.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I see. I see people on the golf course, the old men on the golf course sometimes in jeans. And it doesn't make me mad in the sense of like the dignity of the game. You must wear khakis. I don't care if you're naked. It's that jeans are the dumbest choice to wear when doing anything aside from being out on Friday at a pub quiz.
Dave Anthony
Stand up. Yeah, right. Yeah, that's it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Like I. What are you. What are you doing here? Jeans.
Dave Anthony
Well, didn't he come out and say why he wears jeans? Did we read something about that?
Gareth Reynolds
It's convenient. So he doesn't. He doesn't.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
He doesn't want to change out of.
Dave Anthony
By the way, that is so crazy to imagine a grown man working out in the least breathable fabric and then keeping it on. I mean, that taint zone must be real bad. Dude, it sure smells like Corey's phone.
Corey Ryan Forrester
He's got. He's got a rare condition that I coined a long time ago called pickle diclia. It's on Urban Dictionary. You can look it up. Pickle dicklia. It's the souring of the penis when you work out and don't take a shower. Pickle diclia. It's on there. You can buy a coffee muglia.
Dave Anthony
Like, he was like, jotting it down is like, oh, it's interesting.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Why don't work.
Gareth Reynolds
I can't find it. Sort of. I feel like. I feel like early on, he was in shorts at one point, and everyone made fun of him for his little tiny legs.
Dave Anthony
Well, but now it's like, how Stephen Miller became a Nazi.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This is the problem, really. It's not just that these guys are evil. It's that all of them are so insecure. Like, he has. Is like, somebody made fun of me for my short, so I'm gonna wear jeans. It's like that. Oh, do a dumber thing. That's a good call. And then Kid Rock has to like, I wasn't lip syncing. I. Matter of fact, I flew my DJ down from Detroit just to hang out. Just. Just shut the up. Like, why are you so insecure? Yeah, but it's not even an like, bro, like, how much money before you just go away? Like, I can't. I'm have. Have to do this podcast today. Do you know how much I wish I did now? I would still hang out with you guys if y' all wanted me. If I had a bunch of money, I'd be flying out there and hanging out with you. But what I'm saying is, like.
Dave Anthony
Like, the way you phrased it is.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, no, that was a little bit rough, and I apologize. I'll walk it back. I'm just saying, like, it. Doesn't having $100 million mean not having to care if somebody on Twitter thinks that you're lip syncing?
Dave Anthony
Dave just showed me a picture of RFK with Djokovic, and he's wearing shorts, and his legs are a little wiry.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, well, I think at that age
Dave Anthony
don't discount seeing the two, like, patriarchs of your existence get shot in the head and all this, too.
Gareth Reynolds
I think hilarious. I think that at some age, you know, I think you. When you take all the testosterone and stuff, he does the gears, they call it. I think it's easier to build up the muscle.
Dave Anthony
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
Like, it's hard to. When you get older, to keep your legs.
Dave Anthony
You should not look like most.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, dude, if you're that old, like, doing the leg workouts, you need to get big. Legs will hurt your knees. And I'm not making fun of him. Like, it hurts my knees. And I'm not even that old.
Gareth Reynolds
Well, you're not. I wouldn't call you, like, a good example of any sort of physical.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Just go ahead.
Dave Anthony
Just.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I can hold my breath for 2 minutes and 50 seconds.
Dave Anthony
Weird counter. Keep going.
Gareth Reynolds
What is that even? Who. Okay. Dr. Bunkley was the son of retired Rear Admiral Joel Bunkley of New York City. His grandfather was the late Senator John Sharp of Williams. So he's a. He's a.
Dave Anthony
He's connected.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Never on time for meetings.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, I have a feeling Admiral Sons are probably pretty up, dudes.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, sure.
Gareth Reynolds
Famous one. Lead singer of the Doors, Jim Morrison. His father was an Admiral Morrison.
Dave Anthony
That's good. Tony, how's your son? Oh, I'd rather not talk about Jim.
Gareth Reynolds
Family shame.
Dave Anthony
He started one of those rock groups. He's a vampire. He took acid. He thinks he's the chosen one. Matter of fact, he's on the COVID of Rolling Stone. Got a big bush in his pants. It's disgusting.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Riders on the storm. I was in Burma. I was riding in Burma in the Boer War.
Gareth Reynolds
The young professor had earned considerable renown as an expert on Argentine. The Argentine, sure.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Being an expert on the art in Argentina in the 40s, that's suspect.
Gareth Reynolds
The Argentine, which is not the same as Argentina.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, do you mean the people of Argentina? The Argentine.
Gareth Reynolds
The Argentine.
Dave Anthony
Use it as a restaurant?
Gareth Reynolds
I don't know.
Dave Anthony
Is it? In a sense.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I mean, I know that you.
Dave Anthony
Recently, they talked about the Argentine.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Well, we'll just agree to disagree.
Dave Anthony
In Argentina, he was in his adolescence, AKA an Argentine.
Gareth Reynolds
The Argentine is an older, now largely outdated term, historically used in English to refer to Argentina.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, suck my dick, boy.
Dave Anthony
No.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, my God.
Dave Anthony
No. No.
Gareth Reynolds
You don't get to bring yours.
Dave Anthony
Two things. First of all, no sound effects. Second of all, what took so long?
Gareth Reynolds
You don't get to bring your sound effects to our podcast. That is not how we do.
Dave Anthony
I actually think he is allowed to do that.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I didn't do it the first time I bested Dave, but I thought there wouldn't be a third, so I thought that I better bring it out. Now I know there's not gonna be a third.
Dave Anthony
Well, we shall see. Watch your ass, pal. I'm a little tired, so bend over his knee, Lucy. A lot of explaining to do.
Gareth Reynolds
What are you doing?
Dave Anthony
I don't know. I'm a little lost in the sauce. I don't know. I'm riding both sides of this fence.
Gareth Reynolds
He had published the Argentine newsletter based on information which he had said was obtained from underground sources opposed to the Peron administration. When he became assistant professor in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International affairs, his friend said he told of carrying a gun Newark because of possible attacks on him by the idea that
Dave Anthony
he's worried about an outside force getting
Gareth Reynolds
him well from Argentine. They're coming for him. This is a Nepo baby with grandiose.
Dave Anthony
This is how Baron Trump goes.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, this is.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, War babies are terrifying.
Dave Anthony
Very special breed.
Gareth Reynolds
Shouldn't Baron Trump have to join the military?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, dude. You know he can get there just by stepping over the ocean.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We've. We've talked about. I know us have. We three have talked about this. Maybe off mic or whatever, but like,
Gareth Reynolds
I've talked about it. Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
US have taught. Shut the up. You can't. You know what?
Dave Anthony
No, hit the sound for Dave. Hit the side for Dave.
Corey Ryan Forrester
All right, hold on.
Dave Anthony
Not as good.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We have talked about this before, but like, dude, every single elitist class it throughout history have been terrible. Yes, but at least, but at least they would go fight in their own wars that they started. Like it was. No, like the king would go out there all the nights.
Dave Anthony
Who?
Corey Ryan Forrester
The landed gentry. They would like, say what you will, but they weren't just sending the soot faced boys to go fight. So, yeah, I think if Trump wants to do this thing right and truly be like, we're fucking, Baron has to go. And that sucks for Baron because, you know, he's innocent and all this. He's.
Dave Anthony
I still think he can fight. I also think that if Trump is this chosen holy warrior, make him go. Let's see him out there.
Gareth Reynolds
He looks great right now.
Dave Anthony
He's really looking good. His. His skin is finally turning into full sludge, which is a very important phase.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, he looks like you threw biscuit dough at an old cigarette wall right now is what he looks like.
Dave Anthony
It's very.
Gareth Reynolds
There's a lot going on there.
Dave Anthony
There's a lot. Like there's a region of Our listeners right now, they're like, perfect.
Gareth Reynolds
It's the most southern phrase I think it's ever been uttered.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, well, look, my aunt couldn't afford to get yellow paint like all you, you know, elitist coasters. So she just sat and hot box.
Dave Anthony
And French is mustard. And her lung sauce, she just, she
Corey Ryan Forrester
just, just, you know, Virginia slimmed it up in the same room for 10 months, got that yellow tent she wanted. And then remember, hole in the throat, blue people for toy cars.
Gareth Reynolds
I want to cry.
Dave Anthony
And also, just hit the button real quick, cleanse the palette. All right, this is our strangest episode officially.
Gareth Reynolds
Why believe Bible?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Why believe Bible? Wow,
Dave Anthony
that's a truck. That is a Trump quote. Why believe Bible? I love an op ed where you're like, you left a word out.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Why believe Bible?
Dave Anthony
Why believe Bible?
Gareth Reynolds
I believe the Bible from COVID to cover, said a Georgia man named Corey. But I have never read it. He continued, we have very.
Dave Anthony
That would fly today? Yeah, that would fly today.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, of course.
Dave Anthony
That is a Trump quote. Yeah, I love it. I've never, never read it. I don't know what it is.
Gareth Reynolds
We have In Georgia about 3 million people who say they believe the Bible, more than one half of whom have never read the book. Just why do you believe the Bible? Suppose I were an atheist and you wanted to give me one overwhelming proof that the Bible is the word of God. Just what one argument would you give that would convert me from atheism?
Dave Anthony
What is his ideology?
Gareth Reynolds
Just what one argument will you give that would convert me from atheism? So.
Dave Anthony
Oh, I see. Right. So he is a Christian, but he's wondering why atheism? I think so is how do you get there?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, right.
Dave Anthony
And he hasn't read the Bible. Right. I think it's called, I mean, faith.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Now, for the record, to defend this guy, I've never read Steven Tyler's biography, but I believe that he a 14 year old. You know, I. I believe. I believe all the stuff.
Dave Anthony
Another example you could have used. I read the Sex Pistols book, but I know Johnny Rotten did coke.
Gareth Reynolds
Are you gonna be involved?
Corey Ryan Forrester
What's that, Dave?
Gareth Reynolds
Are you gonna be a witness in the Steven Tyler trial?
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, I don't like to witness things like that. That seems like it would harsh my buzz, but I glad you're the victim. They always, all these. Did they always use like. They're like, well, yeah, I mean, how are you an atheist? Like, look at the sky or how are you an atheist? Look at a baby and it's like, what is that? So what does that have? If my mentality is that we all came from a burst of atoms, then I go. And that's. And so is the baby. You know what I mean?
Dave Anthony
Because it's.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's like. Also I'll say they'll be, how can you not believe in God? You've seen a baby. I'm like, have you seen a garfish? Okay, so same guy or there's not a guy. And I'm betting on there's not a guy.
Gareth Reynolds
I mean, I was lost a while.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You don't know what a gar is. It's his co host, the Gators of the Pond.
Gareth Reynolds
No, I don't know about a pond gator.
Dave Anthony
No, I really, I get. I honestly. A show that I would watch would be Corey taking Dave through the south on a tour. We could watch six episodes of that.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I was watching the trip last night, the Coogan film, and I actually thought. I was like, there's no way to do it without just blatantly ripping off the film. But like, yeah, a then Dave would be the perfect guy for me today on like a book tour through the South. That would be amazing out of times.
Dave Anthony
Or he'd be like, Corey, please, come on. You've got the button from your studio.
Corey Ryan Forrester
You remember this cow's butt too? Yeah, all that stuff.
Dave Anthony
All right, I'd say we got two more articles in a space.
Gareth Reynolds
Do you have a clear, intelligent, convincing reason for faith in the Bible as the divine holy spirit inspired eternal word of God? Or do you believe the Bible because your grandpa believed it? Remember now, the atheists are shrewd, well equipped with arguments that are clear as mud.
Dave Anthony
Wait, this guy is really back. He's really made it difficult to know what's going on in his head.
Gareth Reynolds
He has what one clear intelligent reason for Bible belief can you give that is able to annihilate the atheistic philosophy we have in Georgia? 159 counties to get. Do you really? That's a lot of counties for such a small.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And I live in the biggest one.
Gareth Reynolds
Do you really?
Dave Anthony
I know the name of it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Walker County. Biggest county.
Dave Anthony
Never mind. I just know your city.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, Chickamauga. Oh yeah, Chickamauga. Chinatown. Big county.
Gareth Reynolds
Did you go to the University of Georgia?
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, I didn't go to you. I mean, I was there.
Gareth Reynolds
Why? Why are you allowed to root for them?
Dave Anthony
I mean, I was there is a great answer too.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I was there a lot. You know why? The same reason people believe in the Bible, because my papa did. And really. And you know what's? Funny. My papa actually was a Tennessee fan from birth. But then Tennessee Johnny majors over my papaw took all his Tennessee shit out in the yard, burned it, looked at my dad and said, we're Bulldogs now. And my dad was like, all right, I guess we are. And so I was then born. And so like a phoenix rising through the ashes, I'm now a Georgia fan because of all that. And I'm. And he loves.
Dave Anthony
You're the phoenix rising through the ashes becoming a Georgia fan.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yes, exactly. And he hated. And he loved Georgia even more because at that time, Georgia's biggest rival was Auburn. And my papa was a contractor. And he said that every single prick architect he knew went to Auburn.
Dave Anthony
So fuck them.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Go dogs.
Gareth Reynolds
Is there any story that you tell that isn't the most southern story of all time?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Not to you.
Dave Anthony
This is in the preview for the show.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, I mean, not to you, but like, if me and my buddies were sitting here talking it, nobody would even.
Dave Anthony
They'd be like, yeah, I would be like. I don't like when you say peepaw. All right. I don't mean to be a buzzkill.
Gareth Reynolds
How many cars do you have broken down cars you have on your lawn?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Actually, you know what? None. I don't actually. I'll have you know that I have two paid off cars at my house. Ain't got no bank note. They don't know. Oh, nothing for me. I ain't gonna have to slap nothing on the table head and get it back with my next.
Dave Anthony
Okay, all right, all right, all right. Let's all. It got heated. Let's cool down and let's just cleanse the palette.
Gareth Reynolds
Dave, to get a cross section thought as to this, I would like to have 159 letters, one from each county, giving the one convincing reason for Bible faith.
Dave Anthony
We're looking for our most prolific atheist.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I thought there was only 26 letters.
Gareth Reynolds
They're looking for the most Bible.
Dave Anthony
Oh, okay.
Gareth Reynolds
The invitation to write is open to all. Your name will not be used. But I do want to hear from you. Write me at 1-061-ON.
Dave Anthony
I think I'd like to do an in person visit.
Gareth Reynolds
Atlanta. Thanks a million.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Wow. What a weird. That's crazy how early that is in the paper too.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's. They, they never leave you any room for argument too, because they'll be like, see, it says right here in the book. And it's like, right. But I believe the book is made up, so it doesn't. It doesn't matter. I can write a Book.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. The evidence is it there. There is that flaw in the argument, but also it seems like a sticking point. We can't really get through where you. Well, I've said.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I've. I've said this. The. Those type of people, evangelicals and now right wing, they're really good at putting a. A line in the sand down that prevents them from being argued with. And used to. Whenever I would question religion or like, well, why would God do this? Or why would God do this? This doesn't make sense. They could always fall back on. The Lord works in mysterious ways. And from. You cannot argue from past that because any argument you give, they go, lord works in mysterious ways. And now that is just fake news like that. Now, anytime you say anything, it's fake news. And that's their thing. They always have this one phrase, this one logical fallacy that you just can't communicate with them. So again, what I'm saying is midterms, double barrel shotgun. What, three of them?
Dave Anthony
This is your point? No. Yeah, I don't think that. I think.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Dwyer Day. Do it on Bud. Dwyer Day. A national hero.
Gareth Reynolds
When I was in college, I was geology major. And how'd that work? I switched majors and I was walking through campus and a guy in one of my classes, a fellow geology major, hands me a Bible study whatever thing. And I was just like. I read it and I'm just like, what? I go, what are you doing? And he goes, well, do Bible study. And. And I said, well, what do you believe? And then he tells me, creation, Earth. And I was just like, but we're geology majors. And he goes. I go, what about the dinosaurs? And he goes, well, they. They just put them there to try to trick us.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
It's only 6,000 years old. And so if you can extrapolate from that, fake news makes total sense because they're literally saying, well, the Earth is fake news.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It's good to be.
Dave Anthony
I think having a, like, personal edict is. If it can coexist with reality, then it's like, yeah, go for it. But it's when you start going, donald Trump came down to fight a holy war by bombing Iran. Where you're like, now hold on, I'm missing some pieces here.
Gareth Reynolds
I feel like. I feel like I should do. And maybe I will do this soon.
Dave Anthony
Third part on Trump.
Gareth Reynolds
No, I have an episode about how insanely religious the Iraq war was. And it's crazy. It's crazy.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This one's gonna. Yeah, this one's gonna be worse, I think, because there's Already, man. There's a lieutenant governor running in Georgia that just put out this AI video. I mean, the worst. Like, I have a problem with all AI, but especially it's so advanced now that when you put out one that's so shitty, I'm like, dude, did you. You didn't upgrade to premium banana?
Dave Anthony
Being able to tell now you're like,
Corey Ryan Forrester
buddy, try like, let me send it
Dave Anthony
to a friend who tells me it's AI.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah. And it's just like, it's a Georgia lieutenant basically saying that what's happening in Minnesota is going to happen here. And I'm like, oh, what military is going to kill a bunch of white mammals? That. Is that what you mean? But it's like, it shows. The first slide is like, this is what's going to happen. And it just shows two women in burkas walking into a building. That was it. That was the great crime that might happen. And then, and then, and then it goes on and it's just a, it's a subdivision. And all of a sudden these like black super Sweet Retro Ford F150s with ISIS flags pull up and I'm like, well, first off, I know this is fake because they drive sawed off Jimmy's. They would kill for these fucking cars. These are rad.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Then they're just standing out in the middle of a cul de sac, shooting their guns in the air, not at anybody. Arguably could be dove shooting. Perfectly legal here. And then the last.
Gareth Reynolds
You guys on fourth of July.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Exactly. And then the last one is a suicide bomber in someone's driveway who hits the suicide bomb and all it does is explode him. No collateral damage, no nothing. So like everything they described just.
Dave Anthony
They don't talk about those guys who get a little excited before pulling the trigger. Yeah, some guys detonate a little early. Like, Dave. No. Jesus Christ. Act like you've been here before.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I saw a tweet the other day that was like suicide bombing in the days of drones is such commitment to the game. Like, you don't have to do it.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, it's cheaper.
Gareth Reynolds
I mean. Yeah, I ran. I was reading how many drones.
Dave Anthony
I ran for 20 grand. Iran is taking out millions. Like they just spent 20 grand on a drone.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And then it's like.
Dave Anthony
And then we're like, we just lost $7 million.
Gareth Reynolds
They can make 500 of those drones a day.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We fired it. We fired it.
Dave Anthony
So flat footed for. This is nuts.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Did you know that we fired at a painting today?
Dave Anthony
We hate you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, I'm not in Georgia by The way the United States military Iran painted a helicopter on the ground and we fired at it from above like it's Wiley Coyote. Like Wally Coyote hack me.
Gareth Reynolds
That's so amazing.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Anyways, I'm sorry I got us derailed now.
Dave Anthony
It's fine. It's never been railed. Yeah, we weren't real.
Gareth Reynolds
Catholic Baptism revealed due for Bergman Infant One more time. Catholic baptism revealed to do for Bergman. There's a Catholic baptism is coming for a kid.
Dave Anthony
Okay. All right.
Gareth Reynolds
I'm gonna baptize the.
Dave Anthony
And they're calling the do like it's an event.
Gareth Reynolds
Ingrid Bergman smiled happily at her blue eyed baby boy in the Villa Margarita Hospital yesterday, while her sweetheart Robert Rossellini looked proudly. Father Felix Morleyan, director of the pro Dia Catholic University of Rome, said definitely that Rossellini was the father of the baby born to the glamorous Swedish American movie star. Ms. Bergman is still waiting A divorce from Peter Lindstrom. Oh, this is where that. That's why it's news.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, it was a bad. So that was a boy. So that wasn't Isabella, that was her brother. It's Isabella's brother.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, it's a boy. So she's married when she did this. When she had is scandalous for the time.
Dave Anthony
Disgusting.
Gareth Reynolds
Who gives a. Hollywood brain, sir.
Dave Anthony
Hollywood brain surgeon. I'm very busy. Business is booming year round.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I only work on the worst brains.
Gareth Reynolds
Miss Bergman still is awaiting a divorce from Dr. Peter Lindstrom, Hollywood brain surgeon whom she married in Sweden. Hollywood outside of her career.
Dave Anthony
Well, I got an offer from Hollywood today.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What is that?
Dave Anthony
It's a place where we might go and I could operate on stars like. Yeah, I guess Humphrey Bogart needs a bit of a something done.
Corey Ryan Forrester
And you will be helping the regular people too.
Dave Anthony
Aren't you American?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yes, but I've had a stroke. Can you help me? I am not a star.
Gareth Reynolds
Speaking of this angle, Father Morlian said, as a Catholic priest I have stressed that the duties of parents to the immortal soul in the eyes of the Church are no less if the child is born outside of legitimate union.
Dave Anthony
But what a gracious statement.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What?
Dave Anthony
You've got to keep raising it.
Corey Ryan Forrester
But.
Dave Anthony
Okay.
Gareth Reynolds
But you're not allowed to baptize it. I don't think. I think this is like totally outside of the. I don't know. Who gives a. They make.
Corey Ryan Forrester
They only sprinkle, don't they? For the record. So that kid's going to hell anyways.
Dave Anthony
They're only sprinkling now.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I think they. I think they sprinkle don't they?
Dave Anthony
I got the. Not only did I get the dunk, my cousin got the dunk. And we were very small and when he came out, he looked at my grandma and he said, nan, I've had to wash.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I. I got the dunk. Yeah, I got dunked and right afterwards saw the biggest dick I've ever seen in my entire life. Still, there was a grown man,
Gareth Reynolds
so. So where he's from, they do it in a gym in a men's gym at the ymca.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, they have, they have the. Where all the choir practice robes are. You go back there and change. And they baptize people of any age
Dave Anthony
when you got BAP the first, probably six months ago.
Corey Ryan Forrester
No, probably like seven or eight the first time, I guess. But this like 30 something, I guess he would have been at the time 38 or 39 year old man was also getting baptized and they just let us go change back there and I came back down out there and I was just like, I, I was like, God damn. Well, that's a hammer he's got on him.
Dave Anthony
Just big old dick. It's good.
Gareth Reynolds
Dick to a kid looks big.
Dave Anthony
It's good that Dave told us a bird geology because the way he looks at you when you're telling most of your stories is the way I think he would look at. If he like found a fake wall in a cave and there was hieroglyphics behind, he's just like, well, if, if
Gareth Reynolds
aliens ever come down to Earth, I would like them to find Corey.
Dave Anthony
Oh, they'd be like, we're not sure. A lot of our readings were improper.
Gareth Reynolds
And that's who they talk to about every.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Statistically, there's a good chance most of the sightings are from my area and I have seen one. I saw a ufo. Not right over there, on the other side.
Dave Anthony
We don't know where you are. You don't need a point. But okay.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, I'm just letting you know.
Gareth Reynolds
I always thought that if like Jesus returned and he popped up in Kentucky, that they would like put him in a cage and sell tickets to see him.
Dave Anthony
We found an immigrant.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We already got an ark.
Dave Anthony
This immigrant's trying to take Jesus's job.
Gareth Reynolds
Then announcing that Rossellini was the father, Father Maureen Kid Morlean continued, Catholics will learn with the Christian satisfaction that the parents of the child born Thursday night have decided to give Catholic baptism and education to the child, which can constitute the first step toward obedience to the laws of God. Oh, there's a follow up. There's a follow up. A couple days later.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, Preston does follow up.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Sometimes we held him under too long.
Gareth Reynolds
These are.
Corey Ryan Forrester
We need someone to work on his brain quickly. He's a Hollywood star.
Dave Anthony
Well, allow me to jump in
Gareth Reynolds
and what the follow up are. It looks like letters to the editor.
Dave Anthony
Oh. Oh, wow. So this is. People had something to say.
Gareth Reynolds
Terrible example. Either Constitution. Oh, editor. Sorry, Editor. Constitution. In regard to the recent scandalous actions of Ingrid Bergman, it seems to me that mothers of teenagers should rise up in arms and demand that her pictures not be shown in America. It sets a terrible example. That's the complaint all we tried to uphold as good and fine and scorns the sacred vows of marriage.
Dave Anthony
Look, you printed a very controversial article the other day about a woman who was getting divorced.
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, there's more. There's a lot more. So now we put a premium on illegitimacy and the Catholic church apparently has openly condoned adultery, illegitimacy and free love, Dear God, from such evils as these. Deliver us Ingrid Bergman. Ingrid Bergman is still not divorced. Richard Keach.
Corey Ryan Forrester
It'd be really funny if somebody wrote him it was just like The Bells of St. Mary's was an overrated piece of. Bing Crosby was great, but you sucked.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. Here's another one. Trash.
Dave Anthony
Trash.
Gareth Reynolds
I am disappointed in my favorite Atlanta newspaper. Why on earth should the birth of an illegitimate child front page news and a paper so fine as yours. The whole story from the Bergman Rossellini romance has been nauseating in my opinion. I am sure thousands of other Atlantins feel the same as I do. Why not put. Why not put trash like this in a very obscure place if what need be your at all, Mrs. R F.
Dave Anthony
S. Put the trash in an obscure place is the weirdest ask.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I would like to say, though, in defense of my home state. Very good for them that no one used the word guido or wap or guinea or anything like that about Rosalini.
Dave Anthony
You know, there's another letter from some guy named Doran. Ryan Ford.
Gareth Reynolds
From how White Announcer's Curse. Strictly between you and me. Strictly between you.
Dave Anthony
This guy basically just wanted this to be left alone. And the editor was like, this is very good.
Gareth Reynolds
Is it possible that the moving picture producers and the radio experts are correct in their assumption that they are appealing to the national mentality of from 8 to 12 years. I refer to the headlines that appeared in this morning's paper. No doubt the next size type is being reserved for banner lining. The second coming of Christ being. Being a sucker for alliteration wouldn't it have been nice if some of the headline writers had let go with something like, Rossellini reveals results of Revolting romance. Stromboli. Stromboli. Seduction startles select society. There you go. Stromboli.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That guy's spitting, man.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, very close.
Dave Anthony
That guy's complaint being the headline Alliteration and lack of racism.
Gareth Reynolds
Oh, here's that's amazing. Bastard boy born by Bergman.
Dave Anthony
Oh, that is a good one. He's right. He is cooking.
Gareth Reynolds
Don't credit me with being a member of the Vox pupali family.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Rupert Murdoch, wasn't it?
Gareth Reynolds
Because this is the first time I've ever indulged in the weakness. Was just so damn amused at seeming value placed on the story, I could not resist and figured that you probably got the same kick out of it that I did. Al C. White.
Dave Anthony
One more, Hal sure does. See why.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Wow.
Dave Anthony
By the way, he. It makes sense why he would want to keep this just between him and the editor. Yeah, he probably saw the paper was like that.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I don't know. You know it. Yeah, back then people wanted to keep those opinions to themselves, but now, boy, they're proud to print it in their own location.
Dave Anthony
The amount of times on threads, someone will. And I know it's the algorithm, like, attacking you, your anger, but it just will be like, I'm a proud white man, 35, love to bench press, and
Corey Ryan Forrester
you're like, how else can I offend you today?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, yeah. It's just that shooting yourself on live
Corey Ryan Forrester
television like the hero Bud dwi. That's how it's a.
Dave Anthony
It's a theme. He's got a theme.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I always have a theme.
Dave Anthony
You can't say that. He doesn't bring themes.
Gareth Reynolds
No, he has a theme.
Dave Anthony
God, your road trip show is going to be great.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Amazing. We can do all Michael K.
Gareth Reynolds
It ain't crackers. Parrot52 willed 40,000 by his friend. End.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I need that one more time. I didn't hear the first word I. I heard Crackers.
Gareth Reynolds
It ain't crackers.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, damn it.
Gareth Reynolds
I like it when it is $40,000 by his friend. Do you remember the puppet that was driven around in the Rolls Royce in la?
Dave Anthony
Yeah, yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
What was the puppet's name?
Dave Anthony
Oh, I don't remember the puppet's name.
Gareth Reynolds
Or madam. I don't remember Madam. Do you remember that puppet, Madam? She was like one of those hard, like, ventriloquisty puppet. Well, she was a famous one from, you know, back in the day. And when she died, when the. When the guy. She's alive. She's when the guy woodpecker attack, he. He put in his will that. That she. A Rolls Royce with a driver and enough money that she would just be driven around Hollywood all the time. So for years.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's amazing.
Gareth Reynolds
That puppet madam would just be that
Dave Anthony
person needed a Hollywood brain surgeon.
Gareth Reynolds
Just see her go down the street.
Dave Anthony
That's just crazy.
Gareth Reynolds
There's madam.
Dave Anthony
That's crazy.
Gareth Reynolds
That could have gone to homeless people.
Dave Anthony
But no, you see that all the time. You. Dave busted me on a comment, you know, you ever see that where like someone will see your comment and like comment on you just being.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh, God.
Dave Anthony
So there's this cat that was flying in first class and. And I just saw it. I was like, what? So I wrote tax the rich. And Dave was like, you know that you're part of the pro. This is your dream for your cat.
Gareth Reynolds
It is.
Dave Anthony
God damn it. How do you find me any.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Tax the rich so I can become one.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, well, Twitter snitches now since Elon. So you used to just be able to write a comment to someone, but now he highlights your replies to your followers. Yeah. So it. Elon is a snitch. It's a snitch thing.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, I got that got me the other day because my wife gets notifications and stuff with. Of people she follows and she's like, Corey, why did on three separate videos you comment. Damn right. Shake that black ass girl. And I was like, they were. This is a new update, you know.
Dave Anthony
That was your retort?
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, yeah, I didn't have anything else. It must have been a new update.
Gareth Reynolds
Did they.
Dave Anthony
No.
Gareth Reynolds
Okay, last. Last one. That's what we're doing. Parrot 52, willed 40,000 by his friend Bob. A 52 year old parrot has been. By the way, they live to like over 100.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, they 150. Yeah.
Gareth Reynolds
You know what's sad is they get super attached to their human. So their human dies before then.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, I have a. I have a joke about that. I'm a special.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What kind of words he said because he was 50 in the 40s.
Dave Anthony
Oh my God.
Corey Ryan Forrester
This bird was going, don't free all of them. You know, Fire the buzzer.
Dave Anthony
Fire the buzzer.
Gareth Reynolds
Have you ever seen the video of the. The cockatoo that was seen the video of the cop used and then a guy rescued him and like. And then smashed the cage in front of the cockatoo and the cockatoos was like, yes. Smashing the cage and the cockpit is
Corey Ryan Forrester
just like, that's awesome. I watch a lot of videos of Cockatoos list. They like. They either like death metal or just
Dave Anthony
like doing this a bunch like that.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah, they like to rock out.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Oh my God.
Dave Anthony
I saw the largest cockatoo after my baptism. Go ahead.
Gareth Reynolds
You know what's so sad is how much they've up parrot and cockatoo videos because it's all this AI now.
Dave Anthony
And it's all.
Gareth Reynolds
You know what? That they were great before AI. This is. None of this is neat, by the way.
Corey Ryan Forrester
None of this.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, Mike, this is. They're always asking for the anti Rogan. This show is the anti Rogan. Do you hear what we're saying? Take AI out because we like our cockatoo videos.
Gareth Reynolds
Thank you.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah, that's right. I'm not gay, but I've had a cockatoo. You know what I'm saying?
Dave Anthony
All right, just cap it. Hurry up.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yep.
Gareth Reynolds
A 52 year old parrot has been willed 40,000 by his master, George Blair, who he has no living kin.
Dave Anthony
Okay.
Gareth Reynolds
The bird is the only friend I have. Blair explains I'm leaving him everything I own.
Dave Anthony
Well, that's a real sad way to go out, obviously.
Gareth Reynolds
And he hopefully pecks my eyes out. His estate includes. That's not in this.
Dave Anthony
Oh, okay. Yeah. That is how you do a good ending.
Gareth Reynolds
His estate includes.
Dave Anthony
Put some of his seed in my ass and let him bird bath it out. Is that possible? Put him in a lady outfit and have him coddle my arms. Please fill me with seed and let him eat his way through me. Bung the mouth. Don't tempt me.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Have him suck me so dry I cannot weep. Yeah.
Dave Anthony
I told you to go.
Gareth Reynolds
That's barely bird related. What he just did. It was crazy.
Dave Anthony
He had it written down. He was reading it something.
Corey Ryan Forrester
What?
Gareth Reynolds
Bird is stuck.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I do keep a list of just things to randomly shout at y' all like.
Dave Anthony
I do like it's.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I swear to God. Look, past times rant like if something happens and we don't have time today. But I have.
Dave Anthony
We don't have time.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I said thinking that you walked up on a feral cat rape orgy in the woods. But we'll do that for next week. Next time.
Gareth Reynolds
That's another time.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
We need to find The Fart files ASAP.
Gareth Reynolds
ASAP.
Dave Anthony
Because Corey's bench is weak.
Gareth Reynolds
His. His estate includes 20, 000 in paid up insurance policies, a home valued at 15000 in government bonds. I hope that's enough to provide for Bob after I'm gone. He said, Blair.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, it will be.
Corey Ryan Forrester
That's apparent.
Dave Anthony
I think he's gonna be okay.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Yeah.
Dave Anthony
It's actually called low overhead.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. Blair said that the poly has been in the family for three generations.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Wow.
Dave Anthony
They're dying young and they live long.
Gareth Reynolds
Years old.
Dave Anthony
Yeah, so? Well, they're not livers bad.
Gareth Reynolds
Some bad generations. We're born with a liver failure.
Corey Ryan Forrester
I've seen everyone I care about perish.
Gareth Reynolds
Please. Your family is torturous to be a part of Rock.
Dave Anthony
Until I heard otherwise recently, I assumed the average lifespan of man was nine.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Rock.
Dave Anthony
Rock.
Corey Ryan Forrester
Edward. I wish I'd spent less time at work. Rock.
Gareth Reynolds
Blair. Blair was a member of the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania police force for 20 years. He retired in 1927 and came to Detroit. He works part time at Chrysler.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The bird.
Gareth Reynolds
Yeah. After the parrot dies.
Dave Anthony
You're gonna love this, Rock.
Gareth Reynolds
After the parrot dies, the estate will go to charities, Blair said. But right now, Bob is one Polly. That's going to get more than a cracker.
Dave Anthony
Thanks for having me over, Bob.
Gareth Reynolds
Just happened.
Dave Anthony
That's the Anna Nicole Smith figure trying to bang her way into the fortune.
Corey Ryan Forrester
The bird.
Dave Anthony
Yeah. Wow.
Corey Ryan Forrester
There was a Greek God that did that. A bird or a lady who then turned into a bird. Athena, was it? No, it was Lita. Lita, Yeah. I can't remember who the God was, but he. She tricked him down there. Her. And then she was like, I'm a bird. What are you gonna do now? And something happened.
