David0:00Moment view
What's up, guys? Welcome back to Views.
Natalie0:02Moment view
One more time. I kind of burped.
Jason0:04Moment view
Oh my God. I thought it was a fart.
David0:06Moment view
Is it true that if you pull your butt cheeks apart, you don't smell the fart or you don't hear the fart?
Jason0:10Moment view
If you pull the butt cheeks apart?
David0:12Moment view
Yeah.
Natalie0:12Moment view
Yeah, I think so.
Carly0:13Moment view
If you pull them apart, you don't hear the fart.
David0:15Moment view
Yes. Is that true?
Jason0:16Moment view
Of course.
Carly0:17Moment view
Yeah, because it doesn't vibrate.
David0:18Moment view
Are you fucking serious?
Carly0:20Moment view
Do you want to go try it out?
David0:21Moment view
No.
Natalie0:21Moment view
Then it's literally just air passing through. Air doesn't make sound, is it?
David0:25Moment view
No, because, like, Zane, when he farts, he'll spread his legs out. And he'll be spreading his ass cheeks, but it'll still make some solid sound.
Natalie0:31Moment view
But he's not spreading his ass cheeks. He's just spreading his legs.
David0:34Moment view
Did you just fart or did you burp?
Natalie0:36Moment view
Moral of the story, I just burped. I'm really sorry.
David0:38Moment view
Whatever. Let's just roll the intro music. Guys, welcome back to the podcast. I'm David. That's my friend Jason. Natalie's here. Carly's here. There's a bunch of people here. Natalie, I want to start by saying this. Dude, I've been trying to get Natalie to like come out of her room like 5 times a day.
Jason0:57Moment view
Yeah, you said that she sneaks off in there.
David1:00Moment view
She fucking leaves and she goes, give me 5 minutes, and she'll literally leave for an hour and a half. Okay, Natalie, admit that you do this.
Natalie1:05Moment view
Like sometimes, because I really have to get stuff done and you just suck me in with all like your stuff, then I have to do stuff independently.
David1:10Moment view
My stuff is your stuff.
Natalie1:11Moment view
I know, but like sometimes you just make me sit there and do things like I'm just literally watching your screen over your shoulder. I'm not actually like— I know, which is doing something in part, but like there's so many other important things I need to prioritize.
David1:22Moment view
Okay, well regardless, the other day I was like, Natalie, what are you doing? And, and I think she was pooping.
Jason1:29Moment view
Okay.
David1:29Moment view
And really?
Natalie1:30Moment view
Are you serious right now? What are you doing?
David1:34Moment view
But this isn't the story. But I was like, Natalie, what are you doing? And Natalie's mom came out and she goes, I think she's pooping.
Natalie1:40Moment view
Oh my God. Oh my God.
David1:42Moment view
And then a couple hours later, like 8 hours later, I go, Natalie! And then I go turn around, his mom, I'm like, is she pooping again? And she goes, well, I've actually been wanting to talk to you about this. She told me to not say when she— oh my God, she goes, I've been trying— I want to talk to you about this. She told me not to tell you.
Natalie2:00Moment view
Why would she say I need to talk to you about this after I told her to literally shut her mouth?
David2:05Moment view
Yeah, she told me, she goes, she goes, hey, um, I can't tell you anymore when Allie's pooping, so I'm just gonna pretend like she's changing right now. And I'm like, but she's pooping, isn't she? And she goes, yes, she is. Oh my God, your mother outed you out, and you pooped twice in one day.
Natalie2:21Moment view
I don't think I did. Honestly, sometimes I just go in there because I know you can't come in.
David2:26Moment view
Oh, I'm going to start coming in there.
Jason2:28Moment view
No, I used to do that when I was married. I used to just go sit in the bathroom.
David2:31Moment view
You used to just really?
Carly2:32Moment view
That's dark.
David2:33Moment view
You used to just poop?
Jason2:34Moment view
Because I knew, like, that's what this is. You couldn't knock on the door.
David2:37Moment view
I always thought the bathroom's such an interesting place because when I used to, like, sit at dinner with my parents or whatever and like, like they would be— they'd get so mad. They'd be like, fucking stay here until everybody's fucking done eating. But when I said I had to use the bathroom, or like I had to pee or something, no one would ever look at me. Yeah, like in an evil way. Everyone was like, yeah, that's normal, go for it, get out of here, go pee. It was so weird. Like they would try everything to keep me at the table, but then when I go, can I use the bathroom, they go, okay, go for it. Like it's like the bathroom's like the safety spot where everyone's agreed that like it is like your, like your dojo. Yeah, like no one's allowed to enter it.
Natalie3:11Moment view
And like it's like it's your dojo, it's your dojo, you know.
Jason3:14Moment view
Yeah, I gotta go to the bathroom right now, actually.
David3:16Moment view
Oh, you can't go. I'll follow you in there with the podcast equipment. What happened with your son?
Jason3:21Moment view
Oh, I was, um, he's had this project to do since Christmas and he hasn't been doing it, and that was one of the reasons why he got grounded or whatever. And so then finally Sunday night, he— all Sunday, all day, he was working on this song for school. And Marty was like, you gotta go talk to him. Like, he's been in there for like 6 hours and he comes out and he says it's not right, and, uh, and you gotta go talk to him. I was like, okay, okay. So I go talk to him, I'm like It was like 9:30. I'm like, you got to get this done. You got to, you got to get this done. I said, no one cares. No one fucking cares.
David3:49Moment view
You said that?
Jason3:49Moment view
Yeah, I said no one cares if it's perfect. All it has to be is 3 minutes about whatever book you're reading. That's it. And even Charlie, my daughter, was like, Wyatt, you could have just written 6 paragraphs and been done with this 3 weeks ago. Yeah, he's like, no, no, no, I got to make this song. I got to make this song. So I'm like, all right, so put it, get it, get it done, put it on the thumb drive, and that's it. Go to sleep. 10 o'clock. I don't care if it's done or not. He's like, okay, okay, okay. Then as I was leaving, I was like, what's the song about? And he goes, oh, the Holocaust. Like that. And I was like, oh my God, no. Yeah. So then I went home and I went to sleep. And then at 11:30 at night, he's like, he sent me the lyrics and the song. And I'm like, it's dark in my bed. So this is what I hear.
David4:29Moment view
This is him singing the Holocaust song.
Jason4:31Moment view
Yeah. This is for his school project.
David4:39Moment view
What the fuck?
Natalie4:40Moment view
Oh my God, you've been licking David's face right now.
David4:57Moment view
Okay, hold on.
Jason4:58Moment view
Really heavy.
David4:58Moment view
It's actually pretty good. It's pretty good.
Carly5:01Moment view
It's like the Arctic Monkeys.
David5:02Moment view
If the Twenty One Pilots came out with this, they got away with writing a Holocaust song.
Jason5:05Moment view
But we've been yelling at him for weeks.
David5:06Moment view
Wait, that was really good.
Jason5:08Moment view
Pretty good, right?
Carly5:08Moment view
Wait, wait, I can't believe David likes your son now.
David5:11Moment view
Okay, here we go, hold on.
Natalie5:21Moment view
Wait, is this Wyatt's voice?
David5:31Moment view
Yeah. Oh wow. What the fuck?
Jason6:00Moment view
It's 5 minutes and 37 seconds, by the way.
David6:02Moment view
Okay, I won't play anymore.
Jason6:04Moment view
Could have been—
David6:04Moment view
wait, what the fuck?
Jason6:05Moment view
You know, you're yelling at a kid to do—
David6:07Moment view
oh, they got me working like a slave. Oh, the number on my arms, my only name. Oh, I'm tired of this thing. I'ma stand up, but I'm just another Jew ready for cleanup. What the hell's going on here, dog?
Carly6:18Moment view
It's not like it was a music class. He could have written a paper.
David6:21Moment view
That was ridiculous. Yeah, that's— I don't know if I should— if you should call somebody or, uh, you should be proud.
Natalie6:27Moment view
Rather to be scared or impressed?
David6:29Moment view
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how to read. If my son showed showed up with this, I'd be like, okay.
Jason6:32Moment view
My mom and I were like scared by it. We were like, whoa, like this is kind of heavy.
David6:36Moment view
Imagine he performs it for you on a computer, or on like, like on a piano. He's just bawling his eyes out. You're just like, you're 11, you weren't there, how the fuck are you even feeling all these things? That, that was— I don't know, I don't know what to think of that. I mean, that was great, it's very impressive.
Jason6:52Moment view
Yeah, I know, he did a good job.
Natalie6:53Moment view
God, I'm looking at Jason's text messages to his son right now and there's literally just like scrolling a novel of just heart emojis. You have to scroll through.
Jason7:02Moment view
Let me see.
David7:02Moment view
Let me read your text.
Jason7:03Moment view
I have no one in my life, so I'm jealous.
David7:05Moment view
Let me read them. Let me read these texts. Give me the phone. I'll find them. Jason left him a voice message. Then his son said, thank you so much, miss you, good night, love you. Then Jason said, go to bed, love you too, see you tomorrow, congrats, you're on your way, I love the way you sing, so many things about the song, I'll tell you tomorrow, we'll go through it.
Natalie7:20Moment view
Are these all separate messages?
David7:21Moment view
These are all separate messages, and they all have— they all have 17 heart emojis in between them.
Natalie7:26Moment view
Shut up.
David7:27Moment view
No, I'm being serious.
Natalie7:27Moment view
Do you ever think you're just a little—
David7:29Moment view
Look at this. Look at this. I mean, you can't see it on the podcast, but they don't even speak in English. They just send each other hearts.
Jason7:34Moment view
David's mom is here crying.
David7:36Moment view
She's never had a relationship like this. Hey, you have 3 more kids. Don't fuck those up.
Carly7:43Moment view
Toby might be a good candidate.
Jason7:45Moment view
Did you ever write a song for school, David?
David7:48Moment view
No.
Jason7:48Moment view
Have you ever written a song?
David7:50Moment view
Yeah, I probably fucked around with GarageBand. Or like with lyrics?
Jason7:53Moment view
Yeah. Even for fun, like a funny song or—
David7:56Moment view
Oh, no, I don't think so.
Jason7:57Moment view
Never?
Jonah7:58Moment view
No.
David7:59Moment view
That was a pretty deep song, man. That really got me out of the mood out of this podcast.
Jason8:02Moment view
I'm sorry, but good for him. Yeah, it was a lot. It was a lot for me to get at 11:00 at night and it kept me up. I was like lying in my bed like, oh my God, wait, was the project about the Holocaust or was it just write a song about anything? No, it was about the book The Night. Okay. So he had to read the Holocaust. Yeah. You know who's a fun— you know, as a fun singer is Natalie.
David8:20Moment view
Yeah, Natalie loves this.
Jason8:21Moment view
I love what she sings.
Natalie8:22Moment view
I love singing. Should I sing us all a ballad right now?
David8:25Moment view
Yeah, yeah, sure.
Natalie8:26Moment view
I really love to sing.
David8:27Moment view
Oh my God, I fucking hate you.
Carly8:29Moment view
Wait, that was so genuine. Like, yeah, the way she said it, she was like, wait, I really love to sing. I do too.
Natalie8:34Moment view
I'm like, I really love singing.
Carly8:35Moment view
Are you good at it actually?
Natalie8:37Moment view
No, not at all.
Carly8:38Moment view
Like, if you're by yourself in the car, you're like, oh, I suck. Are you like—
Natalie8:40Moment view
well, I think I sound great, but I, I actually don't.
Carly8:43Moment view
Have you ever recorded yourself singing and then you listen, you're like, damn it, 100%?
Natalie8:47Moment view
I like— I'll sing to that. Like, I'll have the music on in the car and I'll sing to it. I'll be like, okay, I actually kind of think I this one. And so I'll like put my— turn on my voice memos and I'll record my voice.
Jason8:55Moment view
Same thing. Wait, really? Yeah.
Natalie8:57Moment view
And then I'll turn the music down and should we pull up my voice memos?
Jason9:00Moment view
So if I sing— wait, you have—
David9:01Moment view
wait, you've done that before?
Natalie9:02Moment view
I do it often. I, I'm telling you, I genuinely love singing.
David9:06Moment view
Oh shit, I didn't know this was serious.
Carly9:07Moment view
Let's get her in the booth with Charlie Puth.
Jason9:09Moment view
Oh wait, you record yourself in your voice memos singing and then you listen to it?
Natalie9:13Moment view
Like for like— it's like a 20-second part of the song, cuz then I realize—
David9:16Moment view
so you'll listen to a song and you'll be singing along, you're like, wow, I really got this chorus down.
Jason9:20Moment view
Like, I do that too.
David9:21Moment view
Like, it feels like I'm hitting these harmonies.
Carly9:23Moment view
You've never recorded yourself to see if you sounded good?
David9:25Moment view
Never.
Carly9:26Moment view
That's what I thought. Literally everybody did that.
David9:28Moment view
What?
Carly9:29Moment view
Yeah.
Jason9:29Moment view
When we sang the other night, there was like a couple Instagram stories where we did karaoke and I went to look at it and the next day I listened to it like 10 times, this one story, just to hear if I was like in key at all.
David9:39Moment view
Did you sound good?
Jason9:41Moment view
I mean, no.
David9:42Moment view
I recorded with Charlie once. I got in the studio and he let me—
Jason9:46Moment view
tell me that—
David9:46Moment view
and he let me sing a little bit and then I heard my voice back. But that was the only time, like, I was— it was horrible. But what he does is he'll, like, layer my voice so he'll make it actually sound good.
Jason9:56Moment view
Really? Yeah.
David9:56Moment view
Sick.
Natalie9:57Moment view
Oh, how do we do that?
David9:58Moment view
Wait, well, Natalie, play an album. Natalie, play us a voice memo. I'm so confused.
Natalie10:02Moment view
Let me see if I have one.
David10:03Moment view
I'm a survivor. I'm not gonna take it. She plays the wrong voice memo. It's just her crying about her job. And then he told me Okay, my mom told him I pooped. My mom told him my shit twice a day, and I told her to cover my ass, no pun intended.
Natalie10:25Moment view
It's labeled Castle on the Hill, so I think it's Ed Sheeran.
David10:28Moment view
Wow, you fucking label your songs?
Jason10:30Moment view
That's a title song to sing.
David10:32Moment view
You're a freak.
Jason10:33Moment view
I didn't know you label them. No auto-tune.
David10:37Moment view
Castle on the Hill, 7 PM, just had brunch. I think this is the one. In parentheses, show this one to the agent first. Hey, what the fuck?
Jason10:49Moment view
Go. Play it.
David10:50Moment view
Oh my God, go, go play it. No, play it for all of us here at the same time and hold the mic up to it. Wait, let me— wait, let me hold it because you're gonna— you're gonna pull it away.
Carly11:01Moment view
Natalie, you're literally so brave. Okay, I could never do this.
David11:05Moment view
Okay, here it is. This is— this is Castle on the Hill.
Natalie11:08Moment view
Turn the volume all the way up. Make sure it's all the way up.
David11:10Moment view
Okay, this one's a 13-second one right here. Okay, here we go.
Natalie11:14Moment view
This is really brutal.
David11:14Moment view
This is Castle on the Hill. I like the accent.
Natalie11:16Moment view
My English accent.
Jason11:31Moment view
Castle. Not the castle. That castle.
David11:33Moment view
That's fucking crazy.
Natalie11:35Moment view
Okay, don't listen to more because I don't know what's on there.
David11:37Moment view
I want this to be my ringtone. Natalie's calling. Come on, that's funny.
Carly11:46Moment view
You should have Aaron walk down the aisle to that.
David11:48Moment view
That's crazy.
Jason11:49Moment view
What else is there besides that?
Natalie11:51Moment view
Let me see about my nose.
David11:52Moment view
That's it. No, give me— Is there a better—
Jason11:54Moment view
So you just, you just sang one line from the song and recorded yourself?
Carly11:57Moment view
I'm—
Natalie11:58Moment view
I don't know what I was doing. It was 2017, Jason. I was a whole— you know, I don't know what I was doing.
Carly12:02Moment view
She was wilding out.
Jason12:02Moment view
Oh, I thought you did this last week.
Natalie12:04Moment view
No, that one was not last week.
David12:05Moment view
So our friend Todd kind of has like a crush on Natalie. We don't really know what's going on, but he texts Natalie late at night like all these things like, I miss you, I can't wait to hang out with you, stuff like that. And the texts kind of just pile up and it's pretty embarrassing when he sees them in the morning. So what we did is we took the texts and we put them on a billboard next to a picture of him and we surprised him with the billboard and he actually took it pretty well. I think he was kind of happy about just being on a billboard in general.
Jason12:29Moment view
Yeah, I thought it was funny.
David12:31Moment view
He thought it was funny, which I was surprised about. And then, and then there was like some news places that picked up the story. Yeah, Fox 5 picked it up from like D.C. and it was like, and there was— here I have a clip. One of the women was talking about it. This is her talking about the billboard.
Clip12:43Moment view
All right, a YouTuber printed out his friend's drunken inappropriate texts and put it up on a billboard. David Dobrik setting up his friend Tati Smith, all in an effort to teach him a lesson. Smith had been texting thirsty things to Dobrik's assistant when he was drunk, like, can we please cuddle tomorrow? And you break my heart. So Dobrik printed them out, put them on a Hollywood billboard along with Smith's picture, and then revealed his friend on camera. Now, Dobrik is known for calling out his friends in public ways, uh, but is this a little too public?
Clip13:12Moment view
And that's, you know, he's doing it for— all right, the only reason I don't like it is because it's staged and contrived. And that's, you know, he's doing it for clicks for his YouTube page. And that to me is just—
David13:21Moment view
I'm done.
Natalie13:22Moment view
Bye.
Clip13:23Moment view
Yeah, I just— yeah, all those, those YouTube people, which, look, it's, it's very lucrative. I mean, there's some YouTube artists, or I watch a lot of makeup tutorials, they make a lot.
Clip13:32Moment view
Oh my God, money.
Clip13:33Moment view
Jeffree Star flies on his own private planes, he has his own business. So I don't want to knock anyone's hustle, but when it's these types that just want the self— real self-promotion and just like you said, more clicks, like it's not— they're not really enriching the community.
Clip13:49Moment view
What I'm curious is, is did this assistant— did she feel— did she, you know, did she feel offended by this?
Jason13:55Moment view
Was she okay? Well, we have her right here.
David13:59Moment view
It literally—
Natalie14:01Moment view
reporting live on site.
David14:02Moment view
Now, half of that, the second half of that felt like aliens. Were talking about, like YouTube, like just the way they approached it just made no sense to me.
Jason14:08Moment view
Yeah.
David14:09Moment view
Like how they're like, oh, they're just doing it for clicks, which is already so weird from a new— for a news station to be saying because they're a news station and the whole thing is based on clicks, which isn't really even what the videos are about. Like they're videos just like any episodic series would be. They're episodes. And this one has like— this one had the funny button of the billboard and it made no sense what she said. And just listening to it, like, was so, so, so incredibly confusing to me.
Jason14:35Moment view
Yeah, she got confused too because she said he's doing it for promotion. Was she talking about you or Todd? And she got totally mixed up in what she was saying. But Natalie, were you offended?
Natalie14:46Moment view
Um, no, not at all.
Jason14:47Moment view
No, I bought the fucking billboard.
Natalie14:49Moment view
Yeah, I definitely encouraged it.
David14:51Moment view
That's ridiculous.
Jason14:52Moment view
Yeah, they do that. They're the ones— they do the same thing, but it's not even the same thing. They're—
David14:57Moment view
they do stuff for clicks. Like, it's like the whole thing is just so— it's such an out-of-touch way to look at anything, right? The way she went about it, I was so confused. Tesla stock was at an all-time high the other day. Great, great news. I remember, I remember the podcast. I used to talk about my Tesla stock because I bought $1 million of it for fun. Not for fun, but I wanted to see— like, I wanted to buy more so I could make money quicker, but I panicked. Because the day after I bought it, it dropped and I lost like $80,000.
Jason15:27Moment view
Right.
David15:28Moment view
So then I waited for it to come back up. And the second it was where I bought it at, I sold it. So I only made about $6,000, which is horrible because I put down a million. So there's a lot to lose. And then the day after I sold it, it actually went up like $80,000. So I would have made $80,000 if I held it for another day. Right. But recently, Tesla stock has gone up so much that if I held on to it, or better yet, if I bought it a couple of months ago in June, I think if I bought it and I bought $1 million worth of Tesla stock and I sold it 2 days ago, I would have made a total of $4.8 million.
Jason16:07Moment view
Wow. So if you held on to it for 2 years, isn't that fuck—
David16:09Moment view
what?
Jason16:10Moment view
So if you'd held on it for 2 years.
David16:11Moment view
No, if you held on to it for— I told you, since June. If I bought Tesla stock in June, right? And then I sold it, I would've made $4.8 million.
Jason16:18Moment view
Oh wow. Yeah, that's nuts. Why'd you sell it? Why didn't you hold onto it?
David16:21Moment view
I got scared. It went, it's gone up that much. It's Tesla stock is fucking crazy. And, and I sold it and I only made $6,000, but whatever.
Jason16:29Moment view
Oh, I know. But the interesting thing that you said was, um, I said to David, I go, well, why didn't you tell us all to buy it? You know, like even put in like $25,000 or put in a small amount. And you made a really good point, which was, when it, when it got to—
David16:43Moment view
when it got— even if Jason said like, why didn't you tell me to buy in June? I was like, okay, I tell you to buy it in June, and then if it went up— it went up $2,000, you would have sold. Yeah, there's no way you would have held on to it for this long where— and you would have sold at the exact right moment where you would have made $4 million. That's how I look at it. But that, that is— it's crazy to think about that it's gone up that much. And it's crazy that like, I don't play the stock game at all because The second I put in $1 million into stock, like, that's all— that's all I was thinking about. My mind was consumed with the thought of this stock. Like, I would check it literally every, every 2 minutes. I would be checking the stock, which is ridiculous. I have investments, but nothing as like aggressive as $1 million on Tesla. But yeah, but it's crazy that that's like some people's life. Like, it's their lives. Like, they live by that. Like, how the stocks are doing. It's an interesting game.
Jason17:32Moment view
Well, we went to the movies last night, didn't we, Dave?
David17:34Moment view
It was a tough decision. It was tough to get everybody out of the house.
Jason17:36Moment view
David likes to get everybody riled up and go to a place called iPic. That's his favorite place in the world.
David17:40Moment view
It's the best.
Jason17:41Moment view
But unfortunately, David doesn't know how to pick movies.
David17:44Moment view
Yeah, okay, I may have picked a movie that wasn't up to par, but I prefaced it with, hey guys, I only want to go to iPic because they have really good buffalo spring rolls. I don't really care about the movie. After I eat the spring rolls, I'm down to leave.
Jason17:56Moment view
It's $32 a ticket.
David17:58Moment view
Very expensive.
Carly18:00Moment view
Plus, plus the food.
Jason18:01Moment view
Yes, the food.
David18:02Moment view
It's super expensive, but this is like me treating myself. Like, this is me going like— like, this is like me going to steak dinner. Like, that's how I love iPic. Okay, so yeah, we got there, we ate. Movie wasn't too good.
Jason18:12Moment view
No, was not.
David18:13Moment view
Yeah, so we got up and left right after the—
Jason18:14Moment view
and we don't need to say what movie it was. What we do need to say is you need to reevaluate what a good movie is, because once again, you fucked us all.
David18:23Moment view
Oh yeah, it was so funny because— because we got up to leave the movie theater and Jason didn't come with us there. He met us there, but I didn't know he made it. So I left.
Jason18:32Moment view
That's what I was really mad about.
David18:33Moment view
And as I was leaving the parking garage, I get a text from Jason. Yo, did you leave? And as we're all in the car, all 8 of us are in the car, and I'm like, yeah, we're heading out. Were you there? And he was like, yeah, I was sitting right fucking behind you.
Jason18:46Moment view
Am I watching this shit by myself right now? The movie, this awful movie that you made me go see. Also, it's at 10:45 at night is when you want to go.
David18:54Moment view
Yeah. And you always ask me— Jason went into the bathroom to send me voice notes. He's like, I'm in the bathroom right now. You have fucking lost all movie privileges. You are never deciding what movie we're seeing ever again. As I'm, you know, 40 minutes away, already halfway to my house, I felt bad.
Jason19:07Moment view
Yeah, I was fine.
David19:08Moment view
Last night, Natalie and I went to like an Oscars type of party for the agency that I'm with. Right when we walk in, there was this kid there and he was like, oh yeah, he was very, very nervous to meet me. And I don't know, I honestly thought it was a prank because the way he came up to me, he was like, Hi. Oh my God. Like, it was like he was like shaking, like out of a movie person who really, really likes somebody. Yeah.
Jason19:32Moment view
Yeah.
David19:32Moment view
Like, yeah, he was a little bit dorky and he's like, how are you? Hi. And he was very nervous as he was talking. And at the end of the conversation, he turns to Natalie and he goes, oh, and this is you and this is your husband. As he's pointing to Natalie, I was like, no, she's my assistant. What? Yeah, he was so nervous. He called Natalie my husband.
Jason19:52Moment view
What was he?
David19:53Moment view
I don't know, he must have been like 14.
Natalie19:54Moment view
Yeah, he was.
David19:55Moment view
He was 14 or 15.
Jason19:56Moment view
What'd you say?
Natalie19:57Moment view
And I— we just laughed and I was like, wow, I went from assistant to I self-proclaimed myself partner and now I'm his husband.
David20:04Moment view
Really funny.
Natalie20:04Moment view
I'm really going places.
Jason20:05Moment view
But I had a suit and tie on though, right?
Natalie20:07Moment view
No, not at all. I had a dress on, like my hair was down and curled, makeup fully done.
David20:12Moment view
Yeah, I was trying to be the most beautiful woman I could possibly be. Oh, look at this man you're with. Who's this handsome gentleman? This must be your husband.
Jason20:22Moment view
It's the worst thing he could say.
David20:24Moment view
Yeah, it is. Then there was Adam Sandler was there. And as you know, I'm a big fan here. So I had my friend introduce me to him. I never know what to say to these people, but like, it just fucking clicked as soon as I shook his hand. I was like, click, no pun intended. I was like, I love 50 First Dates.
Jason20:40Moment view
Yeah.
David20:41Moment view
And, and he goes, what? Oh, he like laughed. He was like, really? Like, because I think he just, he just got done filming Uncut Gems. Yeah. Which is like a life-changing role for him. So I think it was pretty like out of character for, or pretty out of context for someone to to come and be like, 50 First Dates is my favorite, right? Especially at this Oscar party where everyone's like analyzing like their, you know, their incredible acting and stuff. Um, yes, I told him, I was like, yeah, my friend and I had an argument about it on our podcast for 35 minutes about whether or not it was the best movie of all time.
Jason21:11Moment view
And what did he say?
David21:12Moment view
He just laughed. Yeah.
Jason21:14Moment view
Do you think it was the best movie of all time?
David21:16Moment view
I should have asked him.
Jason21:17Moment view
Should have asked him. Fuck.
David21:18Moment view
Do you think it was the best movie of all time? What if he was like, I do, I do, I do, I'm really glad that you, you see the same way.
Jason21:26Moment view
That's great.
David21:28Moment view
All right, guys, my mom is here. She doesn't want to be on the podcast, but she's sitting right next to me. So I'm going to— I'm going to perfectly describe her reactions to things I say. We're going to talk about her for the next 2 minutes.
Jason21:37Moment view
All right.
David21:37Moment view
I moved out of my parents' house. Let me just first— first of all, say how happy I was. Right now she's kind of smiling, kind of embarrassed. Yeah. I mean, no, I'm happy I moved out for sure. Were my parents good parents?
Jason21:49Moment view
You know, who's better parent, me or your dad?
David21:53Moment view
Um, that's tough. You guys are both good, but like in your own way, right? Yeah. Like, who would I rather have as a dad? Yeah, probably my dad.
Jason22:04Moment view
Oh, that's nice.
David22:05Moment view
Yeah, but because, because I would have turned out differently if my dad sent me as many hearts as you send yours. My dad sent me a single emoji as a kid. I would have turned out differently.
Jason22:16Moment view
Maybe he'd write a beautiful song about the Holocaust.
David22:19Moment view
I don't know if that's what I want my dad doing or that's what I want me doing.
Jason22:22Moment view
Well, now everyone else is your mom. You know, your mom thinks you're really funny, by the way. People should know that she has this pattern with you where she— you like, if I go visit in Chicago or she comes here, she has this pattern where she's frustrated, frustrated, frustrated, and then she's like also dying laughing.
David22:38Moment view
I know, dude.
Jason22:39Moment view
And then frustrated.
David22:40Moment view
My parents do this thing where they're like, they're always mad about something and they always like want to talk about something and it never has a resolution ever, ever. They'll just like, they'll be like, we need to talk to you and then I'll sit down and, and then the first 10 minutes of the conversation will be about why I never sit down and conversate with them. So they're already wasting their time there. And then, and then, and then she'll start talking about something like, you need to take more time. And like, my dad always talks about meditation. That's something he brings up all the time. He goes, are you finding time for yourself? And like, it makes me want to blow my fucking brains out.
Jason23:11Moment view
Yeah.
David23:11Moment view
Like, like my mom will go like, you need to go see a therapist. And I'm never more stressed out or just like just angry than when I am around them. That is the most stress that comes. She said I never said it today. You literally said— she's saying that she's never said that I need to see a therapist. You've said it multiple times. You made me get on the phone with a therapist. I mean, listen, if I was to go back and change like my parents' parenting methods, I wouldn't, right? Because sure, because then I would be somewhere totally different now. But do I think it like— do I think it works the best way? Probably not. Probably not. Our friend Jonas here, he's a big fan of Nathan Fielder. Nathan Fielder has a show called Nathan for You, and I don't know where it airs, but it's a really funny show. He's a really funny central Hulu, Comedy Central. Bottom line, it's funny and Jonah's a big fan. And we were at the movies one day and we were walking into the theater and Nathan Fielder is coming out and he's walking home. He just saw a movie. It's pretty late. It's like 9:00. He's going home. And Jonah goes, oh my God, that's fucking Nathan Fielder. And I go, yeah, that is. And then I don't think I even had time to react.
Jason24:15Moment view
Sure.
David24:15Moment view
But, but all of a sudden Jonah goes, oh, yo, I'm gonna go pitch my movie. I'm gonna go pitch my movie. And I go, no, no, you fucking idiot. And then he goes, no, this is the chance. This is the time for me to go do it. And, and I was like, okay. And Jonah fucking runs. And Nathan Fielder's walking down the, like, the steps. It's like a long staircase. And he stops him right in the middle of the staircase. And he goes, hey, can I tell you about my movie? And, and at this point I walked away. And I knew they were talking for like— they were talking for like a solid 2 minutes. What did you tell him?
Jonah24:42Moment view
I started stuttering really, really bad.
David24:44Moment view
No, what did you say? Be honest.
Jonah24:45Moment view
I walked up to him and I pitched him an idea.
David24:47Moment view
You pitched him an idea? Well, for what?
Jonah24:49Moment view
It was a movie idea.
David24:50Moment view
It was a fucking movie idea. And the thing is, Jonah hasn't finished this movie yet, but he's like working on this movie in his head.
Jonah24:55Moment view
No, I have.
Jason24:57Moment view
And what did he say?
Jonah24:58Moment view
Huh?
Jason24:58Moment view
No.
David24:58Moment view
Yeah.
Jason24:59Moment view
What did—
David24:59Moment view
what— how do you respond?
Jonah25:00Moment view
I asked him how I can get in contact with him, and he said he doesn't want to.
Jason25:06Moment view
Did he really just say I don't want to?
Jonah25:07Moment view
I don't remember what it was, but he said he's not interested, right?
David25:11Moment view
Yeah, it's the worst place to find somebody. Yeah, I was like—
Jonah25:14Moment view
I melted, dude. I really did.
David25:16Moment view
And Jonah came back and he's like, I pitched him my movie. And I was like, you did fucking what? Like, that's the one thing you're not supposed to do in LA is go up to a celebrity and pitch them a movie. Like, that's crazy. And he was like, what? What did I do wrong? What did I do wrong? And we were just like— we thought he was kidding. We thought he was fucking with us. We're like, you're fucking with us, right, Jonah? He goes, no, no, no. Why should I have not done that? I was like, no. And this isn't the first time Jonah's done something like that. Jonah's a huge fan of Judd Apatow, like huge. And Jonah found out that Judd Apatow was handing out like hot dogs in Indiana, like at Indiana University. Yeah, he was— Judd Apatow was like handing him out, maybe like for a promo for some movie. And Jonah calls me frantically like his fucking mother's been kidnapped, and, and he goes, yo, Judd Apatow right now, he's handing out hot dogs, he's in Indiana. Do you think there's any chance if I get on a flight right now with him, I could get him for 5 minutes when I get there? And I go, probably not. And he goes, you don't think if I get on a flight right now, I could talk to him for 5 minutes and pitch him an idea? It could literally fucking change my life. And I was like, first of all, Jonah, I don't think Judd Apatow has ever been further away from you than this moment of him being in Indiana. The dude lives in LA, maybe 20 minutes away from you. So I don't know why it's when he's in Indiana all of a sudden you have the urge to fly and meet him there. It made no sense. And then second of all, definitely don't go up to him in any circumstance and pitch him a fucking movie.
Jonah26:30Moment view
I would never do that again. I would never, 'cause I don't know. I was just so silly. I don't know why.
David26:34Moment view
That was crazy. It's like the— it's like people hate that. People hate that.
Jonah26:37Moment view
No, I know, I understand. I— yeah, I would— I would do— I melted.
David26:41Moment view
Like, with the Nathan Fielder one, you were really nervous, but it was kind of cute because it was like, like an endearing— like, he really liked him, but he just kind of fucked up.
Jason26:48Moment view
I've met Nathan Fielder, and I, I feel like, uh, he would like you.
Jonah26:52Moment view
No, he didn't like me.
David26:53Moment view
Nathan Fielder? No, he would like you. He would like you. He would like you if you didn't come up to him and pitch him a movie.
Jason26:59Moment view
Yeah, that's all.
David27:00Moment view
Like, if he got to know you, because you're really funny. Yeah, but like, that just wasn't the right—
Jason27:03Moment view
you were funny.
David27:04Moment view
It wasn't the right circumstance. Good news is he probably won't remember that situation because it happens to him so much, so often, where someone comes up to him and puts him in a movie.
Jonah27:12Moment view
Looking back at it, after we left, I got in my car and a tear fell down my cheek, and I'm like, oh man. I'm like, it's okay, it's okay, you'll forget about it. Like, I was so embarrassed for months after that. I don't know why I was so embarrassed. It was weird.
David27:24Moment view
You're fine. It's a—
Jonah27:25Moment view
I couldn't like— I couldn't like forget about it.
Jason27:28Moment view
Now people come up to you and ask you if you can be in their movie, right?
Jonah27:31Moment view
I've been pitched a few times. Yeah, not even kidding. I have. But like, it's such a stupid thing for me to do. It was so dumb of me. I couldn't forget about it for months after that because I felt so embarrassed of myself, so ashamed of myself. But I'm like, whatever, dude.
Jason27:43Moment view
Jody used to be really different when he— when we first started hanging out with him, he would be like, fucking you guys doing YouTube and your dumbass thumbnails. And he used to shit on YouTubers all the time.
Jonah27:53Moment view
No, I did.
Jason27:56Moment view
Because, you know, you wanted to be a serious actor or a funny actor.
Jonah27:59Moment view
I mean, especially nowadays in this industry, it's not going to it's not going to work out as— I don't know. No, it'll work out. Like, traditional acting is so dead almost. We're like, I'd rather create my own shit on, on like traditional acting online platforms. No, no, it's— it like, think about it, dude. Think about TV shows and shit back in the day.
David28:17Moment view
Poor DiCaprio, just out of a job.
Jason28:19Moment view
Well, he's right. There's less of it.
Jonah28:21Moment view
There's less of it.
David28:22Moment view
Yeah, it's not that, but there's less of it.
Jason28:23Moment view
But there's more TV shows. David, you know what? Jonah's given you so much humor over the years. Why don't you throw him 3 compliments right now on the podcast and let them feel good.
David28:33Moment view
No, no, these are good. I can, I can give you comments. I miss you a lot when you're not around.
Jason28:37Moment view
Yeah, we were in New York.
David28:38Moment view
Yeah.
Jason28:39Moment view
Oh my God, he made Natalie and I feel like shit because every 5 minutes she goes, wish Jonah was here, wish Jonah was here. Finally Natalie was like, hey, what the hell, we're here.
David28:47Moment view
Natalie was pissed that I was bringing you up so much.
Jason28:49Moment view
Really?
David28:49Moment view
I actually think you're really funny and I think you're perfect for like New York because it's like so out of your element that it's just any situation. Like, every time we like drove by like a shop or like a restaurant or like a donut store, I would be like, man, I'd just be imagining like you sitting next to me.
Jonah29:05Moment view
And we're just like, we're smiling, feeding each other sprinkle cupcakes.
David29:08Moment view
My favorite is when you make, when you, my favorite, you make the same joke with, with whatever situation we're in. Like, we'll be by the Empire State Building and I'll be like, wow, it's a crazy building. And Jonah will go, imagine I eat it. I do, I do make a lot of eating jokes wherever we are. Like, Like, like we could be like literally standing right by the ocean, like, imagine I swallow all this. And the joke, the joke works for any situation. Yeah, yeah, those are the jokes I miss.
Jason29:39Moment view
Really funny.
David29:39Moment view
Remember that day I was telling you to leave my house? Yeah, the day I was like pushing you out.
Jonah29:44Moment view
Yeah, I've like, I've caught it so many times where you like try to hide me away from like, yeah, like important people, important people. Yeah, because I like— I don't know. I understand. I don't have a filter sometimes.
David29:57Moment view
Yeah, you're very hit or miss. A person could really love you and you could be the best part, or you could be like the worst part.
Jonah30:04Moment view
Yeah, I know, I know.
David30:05Moment view
Yeah, it's like really hit or miss. You're right. This next segment of the podcast is called Joe's Teeny Weeny Podcast. It's where we give our editor friend 25 seconds to say and do whatever he does in return for editing the podcast. Joe, hit it. You got 25 seconds.
Jason30:17Moment view
Woo!
David30:17Moment view
What's up, weenies?
Jason30:18Moment view
Welcome back to another beautiful week here in sunny California. And I flew out one of the hottest guests in Chicago.
David30:25Moment view
We have David's mom.
Jason30:27Moment view
Fuck.
Jonah30:28Moment view
How are you?
David30:30Moment view
Don't be shy.
Jason30:31Moment view
I know you wanted to be on the Teeny Weeny for so long.
Natalie30:34Moment view
Yeah, I'm very happy to be here.
Jason30:36Moment view
How are you?
David30:36Moment view
How was your flight? That's it. Stop. Oh, come on, I have so many questions. That's it. That was amazing. Do you like David more than me? Thank you for— thank you for having my mom on the podcast. She refuses to be on our podcast, but for some reason Joe kind of found a way around that and booked her for a show. So thank you.
Jason30:52Moment view
How did you manage to book David's mom? That's really incredible.
David30:55Moment view
She's been a big fan of my dog for few months. Okay, so Sad Bobby. Yeah, check Sad Bobby out on Instagram. It's a dog that looks sad.
Jason31:02Moment view
You know what's really funny? David's mom actually watches all of our stuff. I had a really funny moment with your parents when I was in Chicago. We were sitting there and, uh, you were upstairs, and I just said— I said to both of them, I said, I said, wow, it must be so amazing that— what do you think about David? It was really— I think I was like kind of loopy from flying.
David31:21Moment view
Yeah, who says that?
Jason31:22Moment view
I know. And then, and then I think, I think Paula said something like Yes, but for how long? But why? But he's too, you know, it was like, I was trying to get him just to be like, yeah, it's amazing, you know, but he was like, no, no, he wouldn't concede. He's like, but we worry about them. And he worries too much about the edit, you know, sometimes it's done because enough, you don't have to keep trying and editing.
David31:52Moment view
Sure.
Jason31:53Moment view
And then I can't remember what Christina said. She's right here, so I can't make it up. Like I just made up what your dad said. Best part is, after I had that really awkward conversation with David's parents, David came down from upstairs, like wet head, all showered. And he walks in and he goes, yo, Jay, my parents are trying to steal clout from me. He's like, yo, he's trying to take my clout. Look at these two. Dad's sitting in like bike shorts and just like just watching TV.
David32:30Moment view
What's clout? All right guys, well, that's all the time we have for today's podcast. Thank you guys for listening. It's been a Views podcast.
Jason32:36Moment view
Go check out David's merch, it's how he pays for his house.
