It's the party of the year. All right, boys, we got some great go, please.
Alex Tomaselli
I was gonna say there's like comedy snobs at the Juggalofest.
Zach Miko
Oh, yeah, they complain. It's a lot of you. So the first year I was there, I had to do 45, and it was at 1 in the morning outside. Well, yeah, and they were a little restless and I had to use teacher voice.
Boris Hyken
They were like, we want Alana Glazer.
Zach Miko
They would just wanted to yell shit and be animals. I get that's their prerogative. But I was like, hey, guys, you know, there's people here that do want to see the show and you're ruining it for them.
Boris Hyken
And they responded well to that and apologized.
Zach Miko
The next year when they announced me, they were like, yo, this motherfucker yelled at us. He's a fucking piece of shit. He's not funny at all. And then, like, they just keep bringing me back. But hey, who knows? And it's a great. It's really fun. Everybody has a tough run. I've seen, like, established famous rappers two songs in. Go Now. Fuck this. Like, guys that are just, like. Some of them are in on it and they know, like, Waka. Flock of Flame came out with the shit on, like, the makeup, and he was just going nuts.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, he's with it. Yeah. No, he's Walk of Hawk. The flames tapped into white people in a weird way.
Zach Miko
But some of the, like, older, like. Like, I would call. Yeah. Like underground rappers, they'll go up and, like, people are throwing shit, and they'd be like, one more person throws like, I'm leaving, and then just eight more things come, and then people are furious. Like, yo, he only did two songs. Like, yeah, so stop throwing shit at his head.
Boris Hyken
Are they, like, heckling or that? That's just how they have a good time. Explain the culture to me. It's.
Zach Miko
You know what? It's trial by fire.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
If you get through it, they love you.
Boris Hyken
Okay.
Zach Miko
And if you make it a party. But if you get upset, that's when they turn.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. It's like. It's like a daycare center.
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
You know, like, you can't give in to the kids.
Zach Miko
Yeah. It's. They're having a good time, but also, please realize they're cooking in the sun for five days on drugs. A lot of them traveled there. Not by an airplane. And it is not a access. Like, it's the woods.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. Where is it?
Zach Miko
It's been in Ohio, but this year it is in Missouri. And I'm very excited. I think I'm going to go up a day early because it is about 20 minutes from Branson, and I want to go see Yaakov Smirnoff's residency. He has a theater in Branson that he does every day.
Boris Hyken
Yep. Yep. There's a great comic that I think opens from Adam Yesner.
Zach Miko
I believe so. Yeah. It's so fun. It's like, literally, like, the same menu every day. And I think the trays are magnetic, so I think they just hose the place down in between shows. It's like that. It's like a Medieval Times. Wow.
Boris Hyken
He's got a lot in common with the Juggalos. Yeah, they should do. Yeah. Yakov Smirnoff at the Gather Love. That would be amazing.
Zach Miko
For a few years, they were getting, like, higher, like, but people complain be like, yeah, we had Charlie Murphy, and I'm like, fucking get him again. I dare you. Yeah, well, they've had, like, Norton, they had Gilbert, they had Bobcat and so I think they want to see a famous person.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
More than they want to see comedy. Yeah.
Boris Hyken
I'd love to see, like, Gallagher. Gallagher at the gathering just smashes. He would use Faygo bottle.
Intro/Outro Announcer
Yeah.
Zach Miko
He would do. Well, he would actually do the Faygo thing is. It's so much fun. At the end of icp, they did. They call it Faygo Armageddon because they have pallets of cases.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And diet so that it doesn't stain.
Boris Hyken
Is Fago owned by, like, Coca Cola
Zach Miko
or something like that now? It is just a cheap ass. They don't even have a deal with them. They just buy it.
Narrator/Ad Voice
They go.
Zach Miko
Refuses to represent them. It's. But they.
Boris Hyken
But they won't give up on Faygo.
Zach Miko
Yeah. They're dedicated to it. And they buy diet so that it doesn't stain.
Alex Tomaselli
That's all I know Faygo for, too. Like, I don't know them for anything else.
Zach Miko
Yeah. They'll bring up, like, the VIP ticket holders and let them all come on stage and, like, just destroy the rest of the pallets.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
It's pretty fucking fun, dude.
Boris Hyken
I love that.
Zach Miko
And, like, they're so good. Like, the. The guys at the band are so good at, like. I've seen them hit the back of the venue, like, shake up the bottle and then boot it.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And it. They're good. They know their business.
Boris Hyken
The guys in the band. They're touring otherwise. Right. Like, outside of this.
Zach Miko
Oh, yeah. They're all. They tore all year.
Boris Hyken
Yo. They talk about wealth disparity in this country. The distance between those band members and that audience, you know, that's gotta be crazy.
Zach Miko
They're pretty good to the. They keep things pretty affordable.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
I was surprised. The last place I've seen a t shirt for $25.
Boris Hyken
All right.
Zach Miko
a concert.
Boris Hyken
At a concert.
Zach Miko
That's fucking nuts. Concerts. T shirts are, like 50 now, easily.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And they. They keep it pretty affordable for the kids.
Boris Hyken
How much are tickets to the.
Zach Miko
To the whole shebang to the festival? They're a couple hundred to a regular show. I think they keep them under a hundo.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
That's anything. All bands are charging because there's no. You can't sell albums anymore.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
Well, I mean, honestly, I don't mind, like, supporting in that sense, because I'm not paying.
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
For the most part. For albums.
Zach Miko
Yeah. Nobody. Nobody sells records anymore. That's why concerts got so expensive. Yeah. But hopefully see you guys out there. We got a bunch of silly shit. I want to start off with this. We're following Gypsy Rose Blanchard for quite a bit of time.
Boris Hyken
Familiar?
Zach Miko
No.
Boris Hyken
No.
Zach Miko
Is the. The.
Boris Hyken
The face that looks like the ass that you're imagining.
Zach Miko
Her and her very doofy boyfriend killed her mom, who had Eminem's mom disease. Munchausen by proxy.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. Yeah, she kind of, like, not deserved it, but had it coming, perhaps.
Zach Miko
Yeah. And the mom said she was younger than she was, that she was retarded, had cancer, a bunch of. She had her teeth removed, the feeding tube put in, shaved her head.
Boris Hyken
Pretty brutal. Yeah.
Zach Miko
Now, as some of the details have continued to come out, they might have
Boris Hyken
been in on it together, the mom and the daughter.
Zach Miko
There's a lot of footage of her FaceTiming now with the boyfriend, where she very clearly is aware of how old she is that she doesn't have. She acts like she didn't know and that the mom was keeping her. Seems like they were running a few scams. Yeah.
Boris Hyken
No matter what, I don't have really a ton of empathy for the moment.
Zach Miko
Yeah, of course. She's a bad lady. So she's been out of jail. She's married a dude. Right. Shannon.
Boris Hyken
She's got a kid.
Shannon
She married, divorced, and then got back with a guy she was engaged to earlier. Had a baby with him.
Boris Hyken
Oh.
Zach Miko
So what'd she look like?
Boris Hyken
No, no, she's got kind of a funky looking.
Zach Miko
You're saying this she looks like Foghorn Leghorn's nephew.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. You know, beats his ass.
Zach Miko
And she's kind of. Does the baby voice thing. Yeah, that's her before. That's before she.
Alex Tomaselli
What's the guy look like?
Boris Hyken
But she's on the left or the right.
Zach Miko
But this is before she got. Now, she's. She's doing her best.
Alex Tomaselli
Okay.
Boris Hyken
I wouldn't have recognized her from either of these images. I think I must have seen, like, a transitionary period of her.
Zach Miko
So she looks okay, actually, in that I have said. I don't think evil stops with a generation. I think there's something that lives in you and you got to fight it. Right. I think this. This girl has nature, nurture, whatever you want to say. She might have. She might. Don't got that evil in her. Or she might have been abused to the point where she. Her morals could be corrupted easily.
Narrator/Ad Voice
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And there is a video now circulating of her messaging her baby daddy. And I gotta tell you, I think another murder's on the way. I think if this lady. If this lady gets through life without another body on her, I will be shocked. Cause the crazies in There. Shannon,
Ken's Sister
Wait till you see the entire video that Gypsy Rose Blencher allegedly recorded and meant for her baby daddy slash boyfriend Ken over what sounds to be like another woman. Now, it's crazy that this video is now coming out because Ken's sister also just posted a video today talking about the headboard video. If you don't know what the headboard video is, apparently there's a video picture or something out there where Ken's side of the bed has a big X slashed through it, that Gypsy used a knife over his side of the bed because she was not happy about something that had happened. Now, this said headwind ready has not been released, but Ken's sister said that she has seen it.
Zach Miko
Yes, there was a video sent to my brother from Gypsy. Upset pause. Why does girl have a red nose like Cindy? So, yes, Gypsy has apparently sent her slashing the headboard that the girl slept in that she thinks slept with her baby daddy. And now, Shannon, we don't have the whole video of her just going bananas, do we?
Shannon
It's coming.
Zach Miko
Okay, great. Doing some things to his headboard.
Ken's Sister
This part needs a whole separate video for itself. A lot of people do not believe that this said video existed, which is why I think this video is released, because this is a whole separate video that she recorded of herself mad at Ken destroying something of his.
Shannon
She's having a real hard time with that scissor.
Zach Miko
Yeah, she is. This is what she needed the other guy for.
Alex Tomaselli
She looks speeding it up.
Zach Miko
Makes you look just silly's got to be great, though.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. Yeah.
Zach Miko
I bet that thing grips.
Alex Tomaselli
I mean, if you go back to her. Right. This is the same guy who's before, right?
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
Jesus Christ.
Boris Hyken
Wait, it's the. It's the guy that she divorced. She went back to him. It's not.
Zach Miko
So he started, I believe, dating her when she was in prison, right?
Shannon
Yes.
Zach Miko
Which already.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. I mean, everyone deserves everything.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Involved in any of this, you are playing with fire. But that's got to be part of the appeal.
Boris Hyken
Oh, yeah.
Zach Miko
Like I'm getting some crazy.
Boris Hyken
But once that's out.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
You know, it's just been marinating in there.
Zach Miko
Yeah. Don't you gotta. You can't leave it in. But I bet she's the kind of girl that fucking leg locks you like. It's a jujitsu match and makes you fucking dumping her.
Alex Tomaselli
I would understand this for Casey Anthony, honestly.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. Yeah. You see, very different.
Zach Miko
Casey's been walking around. Casey. Casey was shopping the other day.
Alex Tomaselli
Just give me a shot. Casey Please, can you bring. I don't care.
Zach Miko
I don't want paparazzi photos of her walking around.
Alex Tomaselli
I never wanted kids.
Narrator/Ad Voice
Just.
Alex Tomaselli
I know exact. I'll. I can forget.
Zach Miko
There was me and F talked about it a while ago. There was video of her at Disney walking around. And Casey Anthony's got a doper on her.
Boris Hyken
I bet she is.
Zach Miko
Yeah, she is.
Alex Tomaselli
K. Yeah. Dude, I don't. I don't care. All natural.
Zach Miko
Here she is.
Alex Tomaselli
She's beautiful. Oh, come on, move. It's very blurry. Are you filming me? Yeah. She spazzes sometimes too.
Zach Miko
How would you not? That's like seeing bigfoot. You gotta take your camera out of his. Casey, I would ask you for a picture. I'd be like, I'm so sorry.
Alex Tomaselli
I'd ask her out, dude. I. I'd pretend I don't know who she is.
Zach Miko
What are you gonna do tonight?
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, what's up? How you doing?
Zach Miko
You wanna go swimming? Need a babysitter? What's up?
Alex Tomaselli
Let's go in the woods.
Zach Miko
What's up, girl? How's your relationship with your father and your lawyer? Yeah, God bless her. All right. Hey, guys.

Alex Tomaselli
Yo.
Zach Miko
Kratom.com Home of the $60 kilo. All right, let's get back into the program. Let's do a story and then we'll look at some gross shit. But let's start with this. We have a running, I don't know, I guess, segment on the show of different things that have happened to people in India due to a lack of safety regulations. It's like somebody dared them to find new ways to die. They're like they're like, you know.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, it's.
Intro/Outro Announcer
We're bored.
Zach Miko
Can you guys just really just. It's like the game lemmings. Like, you just can't. You can't keep them alive. Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
The disregard for human life is astounding.
Zach Miko
And this is a fun one. Indian man dies after having sex using epoxy adhesive instead of a condom.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, no, it melted through. That's a thin membrane down there.
Zach Miko
He glued his shut.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, no. We don't have video.
Zach Miko
Shannon.
Alex Tomaselli
No, no, Shannon.
Boris Hyken
You know what's crazy is he was responsible enough to want to use protection. You know what I mean? Like, he had the foresight to want to not have a pregnancy, but not to not.
Zach Miko
But not. You had to go, that's a full ball decision.
Alex Tomaselli
That's not. That's misreading the package.
Boris Hyken
You know what?
Alex Tomaselli
Next to each other.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. But also, maybe it's like, worked a bunch of times. You know what I mean? Like, this time it went wrong.
Zach Miko
It's entirely. I definitely know a gentleman who tried Saran Wrap in a rubber band and got that girl pregnant. She stopped coming to school after that. Shout out. O'. Neal. Somebody keeps commenting on Instagram that I make up all my stories. And it's really. It hurts my feelings because I would make up much better stories.
Boris Hyken
The Saran Wrap is a thing that I feel like kids in high school would try.
Alex Tomaselli
You know, I've heard of that. Yeah, I've heard of people doing that. I've heard of a kid claiming to put it in a chip bag. And I was like, that makes no sense. But he said it, you know?
Zach Miko
I mean, like, did he?
Alex Tomaselli
I don't think. No, he said he tried, and I was like, that doesn't even. That's like. Like what stuff can get, like you said, in your dick hole. It's like you can get salt and vinegar in there.
Zach Miko
I would use a Pringles. I would use one of the short Pringles. Give her the old. Hi, how are you?
Alex Tomaselli
You know. You know what? Someone commented on the other videos that they think my hair is fake.
Zach Miko
Really?
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. They said they get a hair, you get a better hairpiece. I was just like, I didn't put anything in it that day, dude.
Boris Hyken
So, yeah, you're actually going back. I see you're trimming up.
Alex Tomaselli
I know. I got a haircut today, so I'm jealous.
Boris Hyken
I wish I had that. I feel like I don't look. I look like my most bald with these cameras.
Alex Tomaselli
No, you look great, dude.
Zach Miko
It's. You're Being overly critical.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
This guy just keeps commenting. He's like, I know everything you say is made up. You know, you don't have one interesting story. And then he's like, you're really funny, but you know your stories suck. All right? And then I go on his page, he's got a picture with me saying what a nice guy I am. And it's like, I'm a dude. Just stop listening. And he's like, you show up on all my favorite shows, then fucking don't listen. I fucking love you. I can't help it, man. Am I a bad storyteller?
Shannon
No. And it's also that guy that. Because I saw that comment earlier and it was a comment on your Instagram page for this show. So he is choosing to view your content and be an asshole about it.
Zach Miko
Yeah, it just drives like, I don't have the time to watch the stuff I like. I don't know how people fit it in. A day to hate. Watch. Sure. Do I find a few things. Yes. But usually it's because we're in a group and we're laughing at how bad somebody's bombing in their special to stand produced. But I swear you hear a fart. So let's hear about this Indian guy.
Shannon
Okay. So is this guy. He's 25, with his fiance. They were in the hotel room. They were also doing some sort of drugs. It seems like they were sniffing glue. And in one of the. One of the other articles I read, they said a white. A whitener.
Alex Tomaselli
This is a lower caste Indian.
Zach Miko
Is that like. Or like whitening strips or.
Shannon
I'm not sure.
Zach Miko
Or white out.
Shannon
Oh, maybe. Maybe white out. Yeah. So they were like sniffing some stuff.
Zach Miko
I think you can sniff white out.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, sure.
Shannon
And yeah, so they said they didn't have protection, so they decided to use the adhesive to make sure she didn't get pregnant. They found him in the hotel room the next day, like, in like very bad. In a very bad state. And then he was hospitalized, but then died. So they feel like that doing the drugs didn't help, but putting it on the penis, like, helps it to get into the bloodstream quicker. And he died due to multiple organ failure.
Zach Miko
So what? Exact. He probably had a piss too in it.
Boris Hyken
Right, Right.
Zach Miko
It probably wasn't the low.
Boris Hyken
Basically.
Zach Miko
It was probably. Yeah, he probably exploded.
Boris Hyken
Right. Well, it's the. What is the shit in your piss.
Zach Miko
The.
Boris Hyken
In your piss. The. What is it ammonia?
Zach Miko
I don't know. It can't be good. No idea. It can't. It has to hurt like a month. Don't you just cut the tip of your dick off? I, I don't. Maybe he really got in there.
Boris Hyken
I mean, I've sealed crazy glue off my fingertips. It's not that big a deal, you know?
Zach Miko
Maybe he really got in there, though. Yeah, maybe he really.
Alex Tomaselli
What a way to go.
Boris Hyken
Brutal.
Zach Miko
Because my, I, I, my what I immediately thought was just on the outside and then you squeeze the tip.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. Or you do a tracheotomy and, like, cut a little tube on the side.
Zach Miko
Yeah. I think maybe he took the applicator and put it in the inside. There you go.
Alex Tomaselli
I'm pulling them tight right now, dude.
Zach Miko
All right.
Boris Hyken
But he got one last nut. You know, he got one last nut.
Zach Miko
So we got two different, Two different hand videos that fucked me up this week. And because I like sharing my tragedy. The other day, Mrs. Amico and I were laying in bed and she heard me go, ah. And she goes, what? And I just turned her the phone and she goes, ah. And this was man's fingers falling off, just falling off. I'm going to assume this is a result. Look, you can pull it out.
Alex Tomaselli
No, no, no, no, not these. Oh, God. Oh, it's like a crackhead thing.
Boris Hyken
Just gangrene.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, sepsis. Oh, yeah.
Boris Hyken
It's like frostbite.
Alex Tomaselli
You gotta take them off. Yeah,
Boris Hyken
yeah. He can't feel that at all. The thing, it hurts us more than him, I bet.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, my God, dude. Why would they tell him to do it, though? Wouldn't you just be like, yo, go to the doctor and have them pull it off.
Boris Hyken
This hurts me more than it hurts you.
Zach Miko
Let me see.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, my God, dude. Yeah, Eat it.
Zach Miko
At least sell it.
Alex Tomaselli
What did he do? Yeah, that's. Yeah, that's some disease or completely untreated. Yeah, gangrene. Diabetes.
Boris Hyken
Yeah, diabetes for sure.
Zach Miko
Isn't that the worst when you're on the train and you'll just. You'll accidentally make eye contact with the guy's legs and they're, they're moving from the inside.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, dude. Yeah. Looks like a resident evil creature, dude. Yeah, I know the feeling.
Zach Miko
There is. Oh, boy. What is that, the T virus? What? No. What's the, the thing, Shannon? What's the bug? The p. Is it like. I want to say chiggers? I'm not being.
Alex Tomaselli
Of course you do say. You want to say it.
Zach Miko
That's what I call black people in China. No, is it. Is it something like that, Shannon, what's that?
Shannon
What's the full question? You're Asking, what's the.
Zach Miko
It's like a bug that homeless people get that's in their legs.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, that's not mites. That's just a fucking there.
Zach Miko
But you can see like physically see them moving. Yeah. Dude, I want to say it's chiggers with a flamethrower.
Boris Hyken
Dude, there's a worm.
Zach Miko
Yes, thank you. I was close. And now we have another one. As a fat person, I think especially this bothers me. Ring stuck on finger. Oh, no,
Alex Tomaselli
you gotta. Oh God.
Zach Miko
By the way, is he waiting on a finger already?
Alex Tomaselli
He's already down one.
Boris Hyken
He waited way too long.
Alex Tomaselli
Way too long, that thing.
Zach Miko
Oh, nope, no, he's not down one.
Alex Tomaselli
That was just hitting.
Boris Hyken
It's almost cracked too. Oh, just put a screwdriver in there.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, dude, there's some.
Boris Hyken
Wait, there's a leg gone too there.
Alex Tomaselli
That's just laziness.
Boris Hyken
Honestly, the impressive thing is the rest of him that is still put together.
Zach Miko
Yeah. What is. What happened?
Progressive Insurance Announcer
Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
How?
Boris Hyken
It's like Elephant man but with a finger.
Zach Miko
That's horrendous. Dude. I, I get so afraid of the rings cracked. Yeah.
Boris Hyken
Honestly, the most impressive part is that's a married man right there.
Alex Tomaselli
You gotta let it crack.
Zach Miko
And then. Well, his wife won't let him take it off. She doesn't want him going out getting pussy. No, no, no, no. She loves that finger I get so afraid of. So I wear the, the rubber one.
Boris Hyken
Uh huh. Yeah.
Zach Miko
Because I come from machine workers. Yeah.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And my dad always. Now I think he liked also just being able to be a little fast and loose with the wedding ring. But my dad was, you know, we, in our family, we wear the, the, the, the stretchy ones. And he's like, one day you will know why. And I opened up a text from my dad a few years ago and all the, all the text said was, this is why we don't wear metal rigs. And it was one of the guys at his shop jumping off the back of a truck.
Alex Tomaselli
Right.
Zach Miko
It had mesh on the back of it. Ring got caught. He lands on the ground. And it was the aversion thing. So it went gloved. It gloved the whole. It was up to his fingernail and it was just bone.
Alex Tomaselli
Fuck my ass, dude.
Zach Miko
And it wasn't like a crazy act. He just jumped off the back. Okay, hold on, I'll be there in a second. Vop.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And there's no like putting the peel back on the banana.
Alex Tomaselli
No, they just like.
Zach Miko
There's no. Yeah, there's no.
Alex Tomaselli
You go to the doctor. They can't wrap it up.
Zach Miko
Oh, fuck.
Boris Hyken
My ass was so much worse.
Zach Miko
It was all crunched up at the end.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Zach Miko
That's what. I didn't like that at all. Jimmy Fallon do that to himself, right?
Boris Hyken
Yeah, there was something.
Zach Miko
I'm sure he wasn't hammered.
Boris Hyken
He was also fast and loose with the ring.
Zach Miko
Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure he wasn't completely.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. Oh, would you look at that?
Zach Miko
I haven't heard that about him at all. I think he did it on the banish there in his house. But he had like a full. Because I think they saved it. Yeah, but he had like a full cast for a while.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. He had a little more resources than your average mechanic.
Zach Miko
Yeah. Yeah. I would say that's. That's got to be a tough day.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Because then you go to the hospital when they say, sit down and fill out this form. I'm looking at my bones, lady. Yeah.
Boris Hyken
Brutal.
Zach Miko
All right.

Zach Miko
So I have a history on this show of falling for AI. I am, I believe there's a medical term for it. Dumb as fuck.
Boris Hyken
A boomer.
Zach Miko
I am a fucking moron. And so now I'll just send Shannon something and be like, wait till the show to tell me if it's AI or not.
Boris Hyken
You got to just ask AI.
Zach Miko
Well, I have Shannon. Yeah, I have Shannon to tell me I'm stupid. So on this edition of How Dumb is Zach? This is giant bat.
Alex Tomaselli
I always check the comments if I think I'm being duped. Yeah, Zach, this looks like a from Cabin in the Woods.
Zach Miko
Dude, watching it now. It does look like a deleted scene from the Underworld movie.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, it's a great prosthetic.
Zach Miko
It's cool as.
Boris Hyken
It does look cool.
Zach Miko
Shannon, it's AI, right?
Shannon
Yes. Bats, I'm pretty sure don't scream like that.
Zach Miko
They have sonar.
Boris Hyken
Welcome to my lair.
Zach Miko
Maybe he was trying to speak bat for I'm AI.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, he's freaking out. He doesn't know where he is. Shannon. God, no.
Shannon
The biggest bat is like the. The cute face. Little B. Fox looking bats.
Zach Miko
Okay.
Shannon
And the biggest one ever is a five foot wingspan, but their body is like less than a foot tall.
Zach Miko
Okay.
Boris Hyken
Oh, they don't have the thing we have where you're like height matches your.
Zach Miko
No.
Boris Hyken
No.
Zach Miko
All right, well here's a fun one. I thought this was very. And we're gonna have a body cam thing coming up. So Shannon, start warming up your. Your hooch. I think we are gonna find out in our lifetime that our Hank Scorpio, like from the Simpsons, our supervillain, we let Bill Gates get a pass. I think secretly Bill Gates might be the real man behind the curtain.
Boris Hyken
The man behind Epstein.
Zach Miko
I have a distinct feeling and I base that I think he knows or is planning a cataclysmic event.
Boris Hyken
Oh yeah, you're not the only one. There's chatter of these things on the
Zach Miko
Internet, like a worldwide cataclysmic event.
Boris Hyken
Like a pandemic or something.
Zach Miko
Because if you look at the map of if the oceans rise, what will be left? And you look at the map of the farmland Bill Gates, his companies have been buying, he is very clearly basing those purchases off of A worldwide event where the ice caps melt and we lose a bunch of land. And I think he has research or a head knowledge and he is not sharing it because he wants to be the guy that owns all the food.
Boris Hyken
Him in China, I think China's been buying up similar farmland.
Zach Miko
And I read this thing about Bill Gates today that I thought was very telling because they always say he's. That he dresses down, right? Not fancy sneakers. And it's. Yo, he's got. Oh, that's because he's an every guy, right? Bill Gates has been plotting to base his outfits off of Mr. Rogers so that people find him more acceptable and not evil. And they think he's a nice guy and used a customized mannequin to test boring potential outfits. Shannon?
Shannon
Yeah, so sorry, I just ran peed, so I didn't hear exactly what you said. But so, yeah, so he used a team of stylists to make him as likable as possible. And like, here's. Here's like one image of his, like soft colors, neutral tones, sweater over button down to make him look like Mr. Rogers. Even though Mr. Rogers had a very bright colored sweater here.
Zach Miko
I'm sure he said that, but, you know, toned it down. I don't want to upset people.
Shannon
Yeah. And then they said that for any, like, public appearance, they would have to bring like three different options for him. So they would have like the mannequins, three different options for him to choose from.
Zach Miko
I think. I think there is a super villain in there.
Alex Tomaselli
I see it.
Zach Miko
That we are gonna, I think within maybe the next generation. Because he will live on think so
Boris Hyken
he will be one of the robot body.
Zach Miko
He will make himself AI or he will transfer his consciousness into something that lasts forever. And I think he will be the guinea pig to do it.
Boris Hyken
It's possible that. Do you see that interview with his wife talking about like the stuff about him asking Epstein for a pill to drug her?
Zach Miko
No, please. I know about that one. Yeah.
Boris Hyken
Oh, yeah. But like, they interviewed his wife afterwards. And that was like, probably the most damning part is that she left it like very open ended. Like, my husband and I had troubles. And like, if I remember correctly, like, she didn't deny that, like, any of that. You know what I mean? She kind of left him hanging, which means either it's true or like that she just really fucking hates him because she didn't do him any favors.
Alex Tomaselli
My other favorite Bill Gates clip is when they bring up Epstein. This is a while ago too. They bring up Epstein to him and he's like, well, I mean, like, yeah, look what happened to that guy. I mean, I don't want to speak ill, but like, he's not around anymore, you know? So like, I don't know. He's basically insinuating, like, right, hey, I don't, you know, I don't know. Want to associate?
Boris Hyken
Sure.
Alex Tomaselli
He's dead. So, you know, I, I might, you know.
Zach Miko
And he's also very politely going, I mean, yeah, he was murdered.
Alex Tomaselli
Exactly. He's insinuating like, hey, he, he, he was murdered.
Boris Hyken
You sure you want to go down.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, you want to go down this path type thing. And you're like, okay, but he's a nerd about it too, so it still isn't that threatening. But you're like, well, it doesn't have to be. He has all the money.
Boris Hyken
I've heard like, there's a lot of legitimate, like medical establishment people and others that just don't like the fact that he medals and all that. Basically, like, even if you argue that, like he's trying to do good, even those people will be like, I get it. But also like, just fun and like, you don't need to be the decision maker with this kind of stuff.
Zach Miko
He likes the power part of it.
Boris Hyken
Oh, I'm sure. Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
They all do. Like, musk is like that. They want to be famous and cool, but it's like, dude, you're not now. You're a piece of shit.
Zach Miko
Do you guys remember the was dated Kathy Griffin?
Alex Tomaselli
Who's the was? Yeah. Okay.
Zach Miko
When Kathy Griffin had her reality show the D List, was it?
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
She was dating Steve Wozniak.
Boris Hyken
Wow. And was is definitely the better of the pair.
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
He was the, like the actual architecture.
Boris Hyken
Right.
Alex Tomaselli
He was the one who did this,
Boris Hyken
made the stuff and seemed less like kind of business hungry to dominate everybody.
Zach Miko
Yeah. I think he genuinely just dominated Kathy Griffiths. Yeah. Okay. I'm going to go out on and I know everybody's going to go, oh, she's a liberal con or whatever. I hate this whole people's politics deciding whether or not a lady is pretty. The people that say fucking AOC isn't hot.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Or Tommy Lauren, you gotta fucking check yourself, dude. Aoc, yeah. Is a piece. Is anyone saying so many Republican dudes would be like, lose horse face bitch?
Boris Hyken
No, I did.
Zach Miko
So she's like Rosario Dawson. She's so hot.
Boris Hyken
She's obviously very conventionally beautiful.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
So many dudes. Ugly, crazy woman.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, she's in great shape.
Zach Miko
And I would say up until a certain wall that Kathy Griffin was very fuckable, if not very hot.
Boris Hyken
I don't know if she was ever like pretty in the face, per se.
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
But she kept herself. Yeah. Great body.
Zach Miko
Kept herself in very good shape.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Up until I would say2010.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
She's got a little. I think she's also had health stuff.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, yeah, she had a bunch.
Boris Hyken
She's probably had work done though, also, right? Yeah, I would guess a little bit.
Zach Miko
Yeah, a little bit. I hate this whole, like defining a woman's politics is her. Like, I don't care.
Boris Hyken
Right. Not at all. Like, can we stop pretending Liz Cheney's not hot?
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, yeah. I've lied to women in the middle of a date. They're like, who'd you vote for? And I just. I already looked at their Instagram. I'm like, you know, whatever you did, like, they don't know. But I just. I say it.
Zach Miko
Dude cares. I don't think we talk about John McCain's daughter having giant tits enough.
Boris Hyken
John McCain's John McCain. Yeah.
Zach Miko
She's got some fucking honkaroos.
Boris Hyken
I'd have to. I'd have to look again.
Zach Miko
Am I wrong about that?
Alex Tomaselli
I just know her as the Tim Dillon thing.
Boris Hyken
So what happened with her and Tim Dillon?
Zach Miko
He. He impersonated it.
Alex Tomaselli
That's what I see.
Zach Miko
I remember right around when he died, there were pictures of her and she had some bubbly bubblies.
Boris Hyken
Busted him out for the funeral.
Alex Tomaselli
Okay.
Boris Hyken
Oh yeah, of course.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. Hell yeah.
Boris Hyken
I.
Alex Tomaselli
Okay.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. I mean, she. I see a little bit of Dick Cheney in the face.
Zach Miko
There was a John McCain.
Boris Hyken
John McCain, rather in the face there.
Alex Tomaselli
Mixed.
Boris Hyken
Mix the two of them up, but
Alex Tomaselli
you know, way worse.
Zach Miko
I'll do it and I'll go, hottest political relative, Ben Shapiro sister.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, fuck. You beat me to it.
Boris Hyken
She's good looking.
Zach Miko
That is.
Boris Hyken
I didn't consider.
Alex Tomaselli
She's got two.
Zach Miko
That is the kind of woman you want her while you're having sex with to say, breed me.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. Or just like, yeah, grab your face and just.
Zach Miko
Yeah, yeah. That is just. What's her. Is it Abby?
Alex Tomaselli
Who cares what her name is?
Shannon
Yes, Abby.
Zach Miko
That.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, that's actually a. That's a very nice picture of her, but it's, it's.
Boris Hyken
It actually makes her tits look not as big in this photo. Cuz they're enormous.
Alex Tomaselli
Disrespectful tit picture of the Ben Shapiro sister.
Zach Miko
That was like a picture you'd show me in the car and be like, she's driving me, dude. We did a show we did a show in Connecticut, and now, like, she called me an asshole. She called all my friends. She started a mic called Mic. Then she calls me to talk shit about you, and I have to fucking. Yeah, yeah, okay. And then I go right to you. Cause I have no loyalty.
Boris Hyken
It sound like I still got a shot, though.
Zach Miko
Jesus.
Alex Tomaselli
Hey, man. What?
Zach Miko
Just. Just boys being boys.
Alex Tomaselli
Don't blame a hound for chasing foxes, dude.

This one's for you, Officer. Shoot. Suspect after being struck with machete.
Shannon
Just before we start, there's something just a little bit misleading there.
Zach Miko
Oh, no.
Shannon
But no, still great video. Still. Still great video, but the. The officer was not struck with a machete before he shot him.
Zach Miko
Okay, Relax.
Boris Hyken
Love a good, deep green house.
Shannon
Also, just in case you can't see it, it showed a little bit previous to this in another clip, but then it was cut off and he has. He's like holding a child. Oh, good, he has a machete and a child.
Zach Miko
It's okay. Pause. Is he gonna juggle? Because that would be a great if you had two machetes and a baby. That's a fucking act.
Boris Hyken
That's an act.
Zach Miko
That's top of fucking America's Got Talent. Shannon.
Alex Tomaselli
It's like A scene from the raid.
Zach Miko
Go, go, go. Move. He a good cop?
Alex Tomaselli
I was about to say. Did they hit the door or did he hit the door?
Boris Hyken
I can't even tell what's happening. Yeah, also, what's up with that gun? Why does it have a whole orange thing on there?
Zach Miko
I think that's a. A thing to break, breach.
Boris Hyken
I thought orange meant it's a fake gun. I gotta.
Alex Tomaselli
I think it was just to breach the door.
Zach Miko
Yeah, see, he's got the.
Shannon
I think it's a less lethal option. Like.
Zach Miko
Ah.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, yeah.
Boris Hyken
So the orange does mean it's not a. Yeah, pepper.
Zach Miko
Like a bean bag.
Boris Hyken
Yeah, it's like the gun they're supposed to use on the baby.
Zach Miko
Okay,
Shannon
so it's inside where the guy charges them and then he stabs an officer after he was already shot.
Alex Tomaselli
This is for real. Like, anyone played the game, ready or not.
Zach Miko
Yeah, it's just like it.
Alex Tomaselli
Yep. Non lethal. Now he's down. Yeah, they pit him with some beanbags
Shannon
or pepper with the taser.
Alex Tomaselli
Nice. These cops, dude, having a great time. Except for the one you got. The other ones are like, dude, this is awesome. All I signed up for, smash the door, shoot a guy.
Zach Miko
I gotta tell you to have the wherewithal after somebody hit your officer with a machete to still non lethal them.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Guys, can we start giving out awards for the ones that do it right?
Boris Hyken
Yeah, right.
Zach Miko
Like, listen, I understand there's a huge disparity and it's an issue and we need to punish the ones that do it wrong, but can we just go? Hey, yeah. Way to go. Protocol was established. And boys, everybody kept a calm head. We saved the baby and you non lethally take it. Who? Lesson. Lesson learned. Don't swing a machete at a cop.
Shannon
Just by FYI, the guy did still die from the gunshot.
Zach Miko
W. All right, well.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, well.
Zach Miko
Well, you know what? Not out of them not trying.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, I mean, yeah, dude, that's. That's what happens, man. You swing a machete at a cop and they shoot you. It's like.
Boris Hyken
Right? We give attempted murder. How about attempted not murder? Yeah, that was pretty good. We gave it a good try.
Zach Miko
They did their best, Shannon.
Shannon
I think they did a great job,
Zach Miko
baby.
Alex Tomaselli
Just like.
Ken's Sister
Hey.
Boris Hyken
It's like Michael Jackson.
Alex Tomaselli
That is wild.
Shannon
And none of the kids were hurt.
Zach Miko
Good.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Then another great. Dude, where are people getting machete? Are they just have machetes at like Walmart?
Boris Hyken
For sure.
Zach Miko
That's crazy.
Shannon
I have one as one of my personal.
Zach Miko
How big is it?
Shannon
This?
Zach Miko
Oh, I Remember Shannon?
Alex Tomaselli
Keep doing that. But like, keep going like this and that.
Zach Miko
And I just remembered, I also. I have a sword.
Alex Tomaselli
I got a dagger in my room.
Zach Miko
I have a sword with my face on it that a fan sent to the face. I. You know what? Everybody did their bad by the. I've been watching gameplay of Ready or Not. Stressful for me to play.
Alex Tomaselli
Dude. It is stressful.
Zach Miko
The one in the gay nightclub that just.
Alex Tomaselli
The Pulse shooting, all the cell phones going off.
Boris Hyken
This a video game?
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
So, yeah, it's like a SWAT team game.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And they have one level that's very obviously supposed to be the Pulse nightclub shooting.
Boris Hyken
Wow.
Zach Miko
After.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, going in after.
Zach Miko
I remember reading an article where they finish them off.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
That they said the haunted Hannibal directive
Alex Tomaselli
at Pulse nightclub,
Zach Miko
the thing that haunted a lot of the cops was all the bodies on the floors. Phones were going off with people calling, saying, are you okay? And they said they could. And they. When you play the level in the game, just.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
You're just walking through the club and everyone's phones are going off on the
Alex Tomaselli
floor and it's distracting too, cuz you're trying to hear footsteps and stuff. Oh, it's so. It's such a good game.
Zach Miko
Yeah. Here we go.
Alex Tomaselli
Great game. And you kill a lot of pedophiles in this game, too. Open and clear.
Zach Miko
We're gonna get into that next.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, it's so good, dude. It's a brutal, brutal shooter. But people will, like, be hiding behind stuff. They'll shoot you and. Or they'll. They'll put their hands up when you go to arrest them. They'll pull a knife out and they'll stab you. Oh, it's so much fun.
Boris Hyken
So here. There were. Were there multiple shooters at Pulse?
Alex Tomaselli
No, just one.
Norwegian Man
This is.
Boris Hyken
But it is, like, traumatized, like, loosely based on it.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. You have to tell civilians to, like, get on the ground. It's so much fun. I was usually.
Boris Hyken
Why are they wrestling?
Alex Tomaselli
Because she. You just have to detain her so she's not a threat. You have to make sure she's not a threat.
Boris Hyken
Jeez, you just got through the shooting and now you got to get zip tied.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, exactly.
Boris Hyken
In your own d. Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
It's the best game, dude.
Boris Hyken
I mean, not just a club. They got a little bath house in here.
Alex Tomaselli
It's also extremely difficult if you get shot, like once you're dead.
Zach Miko
And now there's a level where you're just breaking up a child pornography ring.
Alex Tomaselli
A few. Yeah, a few different ones.
Zach Miko
Yeah. But it'll be like a bloody child's mattress with a camera in front of it. Yeah. Is one of the.
Alex Tomaselli
And then the guy will be like, I surrender. And you're like, just you, dude.
Boris Hyken
You.
Zach Miko
I don't give a. Yeah, you know what? On that one. Yeah. And you're nobody there.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. Well, you're on camera. So your SWAT guy would be like, like, lieutenant, hold your fire. It's not. It's too lethal. I don't care.

All right, Shannon with this next woman with the California woman left with injuries. Can we show them the injuries and then they can guess what did it?
Shannon
Yeah, give me one second.
Zach Miko
So this is a California woman who got pretty beat up and I thought you guys could maybe guess the culprit. So I will give you the hint. Not a person.
Boris Hyken
Okay. This is a Spencer Pratt ad, right?
Zach Miko
Yes. This is a woman who got her shit rocked. And I want you to guess maybe what did it.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
Huh.
Boris Hyken
Pitbull or monkey?
Alex Tomaselli
It's a nose.
Zach Miko
Nose. Black eye.
Shannon
She also had to get multiple stitches on her hand.
Zach Miko
Aha.
Boris Hyken
I feel like Pitbull. There'd be more open wounds.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, maybe a pitbull would. She'd be in way worse shape. Unless it just got her once. Then it's. That makes sense. Maybe a Chihuahua. Maybe a little bit.
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
I haven't seen like a. Like a monkey beat up beats up owner story.
Alex Tomaselli
A lot of people having pet raccoons nowadays.
Zach Miko
All right, I will give you another clue. Not a fuzzy animal.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, okay.
Zach Miko
Okay.
Boris Hyken
But that takes. Our monkeys are fuzzy, I guess.
Zach Miko
Yes.
Boris Hyken
A bald cat.
Zach Miko
A parrot maybe you're getting closer.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, I'm thinking an eagle.
Zach Miko
An E. Split the difference.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. One. The condor. The one that's you.
Boris Hyken
Chicken.
Zach Miko
Because chickens are getting very.
Boris Hyken
Rooster. A duck.
Alex Tomaselli
You're.
Zach Miko
You're Red hot goose. Red hot goose.
Boris Hyken
Duck, chicken.
Zach Miko
Think other meals, right?
Alex Tomaselli
Goose, Turkey.
Zach Miko
Bang. Hey.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Level entry after being attacked by wild turkeys.
Alex Tomaselli
I believe it.
Zach Miko
Shannon, give us a story.
Boris Hyken
What was she doing though? Her face looks kind of mean. Like, what was she doing to those turkeys?
Zach Miko
She's chasing them with cranberry sauce.
Shannon
So she's. She's 83 and she was just walking around her neighborhood when two of them attacked her from behind, which sent her crashing to the ground. She broke her glasses, the palm of her hand, her thumb. She bled in her nose. But they do say that this is. I pass turkeys every day and a turkey has never bothered me. But.
Boris Hyken
But yeah, I've heard. There goes the neighborhood. Turkeys moved in.
Shannon
But they say that it's. It's springtime now, so they're. It's kind of mating season. So they're a little bit more aggressive. But they were trying to file some sort of report with the city to like do something about the turkeys. And they're like. It's like we could do something if it was someone's dog, but we can't do it about just like wildlife in the area. So.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, she's just healing like little dinonychus. Dude. They run up on you just.
Zach Miko
It's got to be hard not to laugh if you're sitting at the table
Boris Hyken
watching someone get the beaten or.
Zach Miko
No, just. That's your grandma. She's sitting there all up. It's like grandma got attacked by. That's got to be a funny Thanksgiving. Every time you walk and be like, are you okay? You nervous? Any turkeys in the Grandma's Revenge?
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, that's. I was about to say that's an easy vengeance because the turkeys aren't quick. Could walk right up on them and
Zach Miko
just, you know, get one. Yeah. Me and. Me and Doug Uram trade videos of turkeys getting. It's. These guys have these arrowheads that look like little axes.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, yeah.
Zach Miko
And be a Doug Yeram. Send each other videos all the time of turkeys. Just be like. And then just got. Just nothing. All right.
Boris Hyken
Really rub it in. Get that turkey a pardon from the president.
Zach Miko
We got two more things I want to do real quick. This one was just fucking hilarious. And yeah, I haven't seen a good one of these in a while. Stunning video shows body fall out of bottom of casket at funeral as mourners scream.
Alex Tomaselli
This is just good old fashioned fun.
Zach Miko
This is just slapstick.
Alex Tomaselli
That's the meme, right?
Boris Hyken
The dance.
Alex Tomaselli
The Ugandans.
Boris Hyken
Yeah, right, right.
Alex Tomaselli
Where's the sound?
Boris Hyken
They just put the casket on top of it.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, God, no.
Zach Miko
What are the bottom. What is this thing? Made a paper mache?
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
Came right out. Oh, yeah, that's a thin. That's thin wood.
Zach Miko
That looks like cardboard.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
IKEA casket.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, that's baby blue casket too. This is. Yeah, this is a black funeral to the bone.
Zach Miko
Dude, dude, dude. Baby blue casket is such a great note.
Alex Tomaselli
I was like, whoa.
Zach Miko
He's got a casket to match his shoes and hat.
Boris Hyken
You gotta coordinate.
Zach Miko
I. I've shown people before. One of my favorite Instagram follows is a place that does wraps for cars and caskets.
Boris Hyken
Huh.
Zach Miko
Whoa. Like photos of the person, like with clouds and stuff behind them. And it is not a lot of old people. It'll be like, you know.
Boris Hyken
Right, right.
Zach Miko
D. Ray. Not a lot of 1992. Yeah.
Boris Hyken
It's like the Wire.
Zach Miko
Yeah. And then it'll be him. Like be like, make that money.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
They're all $$ in heaven, y'. All. Then there's a few and it'll be. It'll be checks and I'll just be sad.
Alex Tomaselli
They'll be like 19 angel went to heaven this day.
Zach Miko
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the idea of getting the coffin wrapped is pretty crazy because it's just going in the dirt. Just spend it on the tombstone.
Boris Hyken
Right?
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
Have that. Shannon, you don't have that by chance, do you?
Shannon
The coffin wraps?
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Shannon
So I.
Boris Hyken
Hold on.
Shannon
I found a Couple of them.
Boris Hyken
It's got to be so expensive, too. Just because everything's so.
Zach Miko
Yeah, it's got to be retarded.
Alex Tomaselli
Yes, dude. Yes. With his. His big old, like, mutant hands. That rules.
Zach Miko
Oh, yeah, that's. That boy ain't right.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, either.
Boris Hyken
That's like the rap got stretched.
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
Stretched. Or that he has, like, the boy's disease or something.
Zach Miko
All right. That's kind of sick.
Boris Hyken
This is, like, what Prince's casket should look like.
Alex Tomaselli
Looks like. I like the purple, and it's dark purple. Like a color, you know, like a carnival.
Zach Miko
Yeah, that's pretty sick, dude.
Boris Hyken
It's other.
Alex Tomaselli
Yes, that's sick. That's what I want. That would be me, dude. All the chicks will come to my funeral with that.
Boris Hyken
It's also, like, someone making that decision on their behalf, you know? Like, they're too young. They didn't have a will yet. That asked for a wrapped casket. That's their, like, little brother. Put Spider man on it.
Zach Miko
The Mets colors are real now.
Boris Hyken
She got nice legs. You got to put the legs on the casket.
Zach Miko
Oh, no. It's a Florida Gators casket. I thought it was Mets colors. Forgive me. These people really like football.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. Now, are there any white ones, Shannon? Any ones with white people on them?
Shannon
I mean, maybe the Spider man one was.
Alex Tomaselli
Any golf ones? No, Spider Man's been. You know, he's.
Shannon
Oh, wait, I found.
Alex Tomaselli
He's been co.
Boris Hyken
Opted.
Shannon
I found a white one. Hold on. Here you go.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. It's as corny as.
Zach Miko
That's so sad.
Alex Tomaselli
It's so much worse.
Boris Hyken
Jesus.
Zach Miko
That's like. Somebody made that in, like, an art. That's decoupage.
Alex Tomaselli
They get the wood part right because
Boris Hyken
it's got the wood paneling to match their.
Zach Miko
Hey, we paid for the good wood. Make sure it shows. Somebody made that in their shop and was very proud of it. Let's do one or two more. Shannon, pull them up. Jesus Christ.
Alex Tomaselli
That girl's a slut.
Boris Hyken
Is that a hijab?
Alex Tomaselli
No. Yeah. Maybe not. No way they would do that to a girl. That hijab. The uncles would freak out at that funeral. What is this?
Zach Miko
That's fucking nuts, dude. Thank God. I mean, one thing.
Alex Tomaselli
They all died. Oh, my God.
Boris Hyken
They're going on tour.
Zach Miko
A lot of money.
Boris Hyken
This looks like the posters for, like, a Barclays comedy show on Fulton Street.
Zach Miko
Yeah, that's that. That only person missing from that is Jacob Williams. Hello.
Alex Tomaselli
We're here for the black family. I didn't know that. Well, obviously.
Zach Miko
Shout out, big pookie. And little Ray Ray for booking me on this funeral.
Boris Hyken
I did bring potato salad.
Zach Miko
For
Boris Hyken
Shout Out.
Alex Tomaselli
Jacob Williams.
Zach Miko
Classless.
Alex Tomaselli
I thought that was a fucking air hockey table.
Zach Miko
That would be a great thing to do with your body if you could get a clear top.
Boris Hyken
Oh, yeah.
Zach Miko
And you make an air hockey table out of it.
Boris Hyken
Yeah. Get formaldehyde it in there like Lenin.
Zach Miko
Yeah, dude, that would rule.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh, that gotta be good.
Zach Miko
That would be so much fun.
Boris Hyken
Custom pinball game with, like, your body inside there.
Zach Miko
Oh, yeah. That would be fun as shit, dude. Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
Your head comes out if you hit the, like, center two.
Zach Miko
Ooh. Dude, these are fucking gross. All right, one more thing. And this really made me laugh, and it's not okay. It is what it is, which is. This is a Norwegian guy who claims he was Shannon. If I'm wrong, correct me. Left in India.
Boris Hyken
Oh, yeah.
Zach Miko
He's got the thick accent and a. It's very funny to just watch a fat white guy do the voice. Trust me, I know. It's the head that he does the Bob, he does the. And if it's. It's a nature versus nurture thing. And I don't think he's doing a great impression. I legitimately think.
Boris Hyken
Oh, no, I think it's legit. Yeah.
Zach Miko
He is speaking the way, like, when you meet a white guy that speaks fucking potwa or whatever.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Alex Tomaselli
Or.
Boris Hyken
You know what's a big phenomenon for Russians is like, there's all these, like, Russians that look like Chinese people that I didn't see until, like, I, like, went to a couple funerals or something like, in my later years and saw, like, distant relatives. Because it's all these, like, you know, like, Uzbekistan or, like, Kazakhstan. Russians that are like.
Alex Tomaselli
They sure.
Zach Miko
Forget my ignorance. Is there, like, a hint of, like, Mongolian or something?
Boris Hyken
Yeah, yeah, for sure. I mean, just once you get Eastern enough Russian.
Zach Miko
Yeah.
Boris Hyken
All this overlap between, like. Yeah. Among, like, all the step peoples that kind of.
Zach Miko
Yeah. It's like telling the difference between Bigfoot and the Abominable Snowman.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
It's like we were all one thing at one point.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
But we were all on the Bering Strait.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
We just walk to Oregon.
Boris Hyken
But they just speak, like, pure Russian. And you just, like, do not expect that coming out of their mouth.
Zach Miko
Oh, yeah. I still. I do. I get weird out when a black guy has a British accent.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah. French.
Zach Miko
I never see it coming. Not in a million years. All right. But this guy really fucking tickled by pickle today, Shannon.
Norwegian Man
Fucking dangerous. There are not any people to just to play around with like.
Boris Hyken
He get in trouble at UCV for doing this?
Norwegian Man
I didn't know any better. I was a kid.
Zach Miko
No pause.
Norwegian Man
I was left behind. Yeah.
Zach Miko
What's the fuck's his name? Alex. Who's the super jewy one man show? Alex Edelman. Alex Edelman yelled at me at an open mic for doing it, for doing an Indian voice. And he was like, I just need, you know, you're above that and that brings people down. And I think doing a stereotypical accent on stage like that is really going to keep you from being able to be successful. And now he's got a TV show and Jerry Seinfeld does his one man show. So I guess he was right.
Boris Hyken
But I bet Seinfeld's done an Indian accent here and there.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah.
Zach Miko
What is the deal? I don't know. Comedians in cabs, getting coffee, angrily.
Boris Hyken
Comedians and tuk tuks.
Zach Miko
Yeah. By the way, unrelated, before he finishes my. I call an Uber today. The guy picks me up and I live in a all Middle Eastern neighborhood. And I have a thing that happens to me every week or two where I'll get an Uber. The guy will go, my friend, I have picked you up before, say hi, how are you? I'm like, sorry, I gotta tip him this time. He goes, my friend, do you remember me? He goes, it's different car. Last time you're in my car, man. Hit us in back. Destroy my car. No pay. No pay. Oh, my friend, I have this new car. Two months I have you like, tell me all about the car.
Boris Hyken
Is that true? Do you remember that?
Zach Miko
I do remember getting back into this thing. We get the fucking tunnel. We are rear ended. No.
Alex Tomaselli
Oh my God.
Zach Miko
He hit the back. I went, I'm so sorry. I'm bad luck. He goes, no, not. Not your fault. He goes, they always have their phones. And he walks out. And I watch the Clash of the Titans.
Intro/Outro Announcer
Yes.
Boris Hyken
Motherfuck.
Progressive Insurance Announcer
Bitch.
Boris Hyken
Mother.
Alex Tomaselli
Is it that?
Zach Miko
No. Orthodox Jew.
Boris Hyken
Oh, yeah, that is.
Zach Miko
That's a Arab Uber driver.
Boris Hyken
Yeah.
Zach Miko
And dude, the fuck. It was Godzilla versus King Kong. And who's paying who for what?
Boris Hyken
Incredible.
Zach Miko
We were at a dead stop, this guy hit us.
Boris Hyken
And you had to be like, I got a plan how we're going to divide up this situation. Trust me, fellas.
Zach Miko
Nailed him. And then the Jewish guy got out and he started doing that. He goes, my brother, my brother. No, no, no, no, no, no. And he was. He goes, I am not your brother.
Boris Hyken
But cousins. You guys are cousins?
Zach Miko
To be completely honest. Spin me around a few times. I don't know I'm getting in the wrong car, but I just said to the guy, I'm so sorry, but please, if I come up again, cancel the ride. I can't. I can't be in a car with you a third time. If something else happens, it's me.
Alex Tomaselli
Jesus.
Zach Miko
But that is my fifth time being rear ended in an Uber in like two years.
Alex Tomaselli
Jesus.
Zach Miko
I don't know why. It just happens to me all the time. All right, let's watch just a little more of this guy and then we're done.
Norwegian Man
My fucking mother in jail and father in Norway. Brothers already left. If you guys was not there, people from the slums were not there fucking helping me out, where I would be. I would be somewhere maybe my kidneys would have been removed or something. Never know. I'm not even joking about that because the lifestyle that I lived around these people are dangerous. There are not any people to just to play around with. You say the wrong word, you'll get beaten up. That's the kind of people. Yeah, I've done wrong things in life, but that was a survival. It was my life. I couldn't do anything else. I didn't have people to help me. These people.
Zach Miko
I want this kind of a movie so bad. We got to get a doc on this. I want to know the story. I want to see childhood pictures. I want to meet the family. That's a feature length documentary.
Boris Hyken
There's a. There's a book called Shantaram about like an escaped Australian convict who survives in India on his own. This guy could definitely play that guy.
Zach Miko
Oh, I want it so bad. Was there a second video? Him or. No, Shannon, there's another one. Yeah, let's check it out real quick.
Alex Tomaselli
Yeah, I've seen this.
Norwegian Man
I was lost between borders. Norwegian citizen, born in Norway, stocked in India, living on the streets, surviving, being a tourist guide, smoking on the road.
Alex Tomaselli
It's like, that's real Indian.
Shannon
I want to say, speak like India. That's the only way I'll believe it.
Norwegian Man
They're supposed to do the Finnish embassy when they helped me out of the country. They were supposed to report me to children's services because I was under 18. Did they do their job? No, they didn't do their job. Thanks to them, I don't have nothing. I even told the Norwegian government once they came back to Norway, I have no school. Then they should have done some kind of research, find out why don't I have school. What's the reason? No European. At least from a. One of the richest Countries in the world don't have schooling. There must be a reason to it why they don't do their background check. Because they know they are in the wrong. I was lost.
Zach Miko
It's incredible, dude. I can watch this guy talk all day.
Boris Hyken
Yeah, I would love to hear him speak Hindi though. For sure.
Zach Miko
If you guys know any more, send. If there's any more clips of this guy pop up, please follow. I want to. I want to get this guy to FaceTime in.
Alex Tomaselli
Get him on the pod.
Zach Miko
Get him on the pod, dog.
Boris Hyken
Right.
Zach Miko
Holy. He just hits. He gets hit by a train. All right. Thank you guys so much for tuning in. Thank you so much for my guest Boris and Alex. And we'll be back this Wednesday here on the morning zoo. Goodbye.

It was 5k to pay the bill for my son and I need only 22 hours. It was amazing. People really trust on GoFundMe.
Shannon
How did Juan raise $5,000 in less than a day? He posted a short video on GoFundMe telling his story in 30 seconds.
M
30 seconds. Be specific. Be quick and tell. What are you gonna be using the funds for? I was nervous to do because it doesn't feel okay to ask money. But you shouldn't be nervous. Sometimes you just have to do it and see the results. We were able to save my son's life thanks to gofundme that we still have my son with us.

Guests: Alex Tomaselli & Boris Khaykin
Date: June 5, 2026
Network: GaS Digital
Host: Zac Amico
This episode of Zac Amico’s Morning Zoo delivers another raucous, chaotic, and darkly humorous slice of “drive-time radio gone off the rails.” Zac is joined by comedian and podcast host Alex Tomaselli and stand-up Boris Khaykin for a morning packed with wild stories, macabre news, irreverent banter, and twisted comedy. They cover everything from the culture of Insane Clown Posse’s Gathering of the Juggalos, infamous true-crime cases like Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Casey Anthony, bizarre deaths, gruesome bodily injuries, the “perils” of AI, their suspicions about Bill Gates, and end on both weird animal attacks and an internet-famous Norwegian “adoptee.” The irreverent, no-holds-barred humor is constant, as are the asides, tangents, and oddball observations.
“If you get through it, they love you. But if you get upset, that’s when they turn.” (06:46)
“I think another murder’s on the way... If this lady gets through life without another body, I’ll be shocked.” (13:09)
Alex: “I would understand this for Casey Anthony, honestly.” (16:11) Zac: “That’s like seeing Bigfoot, you gotta take your camera out.” (17:05)
“Indian man dies after having sex using epoxy adhesive instead of a condom.” (19:05)
“I’ll just send Shannon something and be like, wait till the show to tell me if it’s AI or not.” (31:43)
“If you look at the map of if the oceans rise... and the map of the farmland Bill Gates has been buying... he wants to be the guy that owns all the food.” (33:53)
Zac: “To have the wherewithal after somebody hit your officer with a machete to still non-lethal them? Guys, can we start giving out awards for the ones that do it right?” (46:13)
“It’s so difficult...all the phones are going off on the floor and it’s distracting, you’re trying to hear footsteps and stuff.” (48:09)
“What’s this made of, paper mache? That looks like cardboard...IKEA casket.” (56:46-56:57)
Zac: “I can watch this guy talk all day... That’s a feature length documentary.” (67:29)
This episode is a rollercoaster of morbid hilarity, real-life medical nightmares, true crime fascination, conspiracy theorizing, and raw, unfiltered comedy—exactly what Zac Amico’s Morning Zoo promises. Listeners get an eclectic mix of shocking news, internet oddities, and the kind of brutally funny commentary that only a room full of seasoned comics can deliver.
