Welcome to another episode of Two Bears, One Cave, coming to you from Los Angeles, California. Look at that big smile. Extra pep in your step today. You came in firing hot, dude.
I'm firing real hot today.
Man.
Wouldn't it be great if I could just unleash everything that goes on in my head for real?
Yeah, dude.
I mean, I think I'm fucking crazy, Tom.
I think we all are a little crazy. I was thinking about that the other day about... about comedians I was like oh cause you go like that guy's fucking nuts and then you're like yeah but you know I am too we just have different versions of crazy that manifest differently some people are more outwardly presenting crazy some of it just festers inside it's different versions of crazy
I said something to Leanne the other day that made her laugh. Now, I want everyone to know I may tell this on stage. So if I choose to tell this on stage, it's because I came up with it, okay? And since I came up with it, I get to tell it here and on stage sometimes. Just so everyone, all you dirty fucking... Anyway... I just don't want to hold back on the podcast and save everything for stage, you know? So I get on the treadmill the other day, and I'm at a hotel, and I put on Lou Reed. Have you ever listened to Lou Reed, Tom?
I have listened to Lou Reed a little bit, yes.
Okay, now, Lou Reed... His early stuff from the 70s is the stuff everyone knows, Sweet Jane, and that's more like the popular version. But Lou Reed came out with an album, I think it was called New York, in 1989 that my English teacher, Bob Wiener, turned us on to.
The English teacher was just like, you guys got to check this out?
Every day before class started, he'd play a song from Lou Reed's new album. We'd put our heads on our desk every day before English, and he would play a Lou Reed song. So I'm very familiar with this album, New York. And it's really wild, and it's fun, and it's crazy. And it's creative and it's different and it's Lou Reed. So I get on the treadmill and I start playing Lou Reed and I'm jogging and I'm like, this is great. And then I start talking to Lou Reed. I'm like, dude, I am so grateful that I have you in my life. I'm so grateful that I get to experience your music because it really opens another side of me. And then I hear Lou Reed go, I didn't fucking make this for you. Like, I was a heroin addict bisexual in the 80s, 70s, and 90s in New York City.
I have friend die of AIDS. You think I made this for you? It actually makes me sick to my stomach that you enjoy this. You are the epitome in art of what I detest. And I get off the treadmill and I go, fuck this. I'm not going to let Lou Reed talk to me like this. That's great self-talk, man.
I realize I'm not talking to Lou Reed. I'm talking to myself. pretty good that's a pretty good one i was like i'm gonna listen to someone who likes me and i put on jelly roll i have to say i go jelly all likes me and so i listen to him jogging
I have to say, dude, I've done the same thing. I've done the same thing. Why does that happen? Because what happens is like some of these artists, you know, they're like, they're too cool. Like they're just, they're cool. And they're like, they're up there. They're too much. They're like too sophisticated. And the people that like them like to, you know, espouse the level of connection that they have to it. And then you go, yeah, that guy wouldn't like me. So then you're like, fuck that guy. It's a crazy thought. It's a crazy person thought, but it's bizarrely relatable. It is relatable because you know, they wouldn't like you. It's exactly the truth. It's exactly the truth. You have that for like, you know, pretentious artists, like whether they're songwriters, filmmakers, actors, sometimes you see like a great performance in something.
And then you see that person in an interview and you're like, this guy's like, and you're like, Yeah, he wouldn't like me. This guy wouldn't like me for sure. He'd be like, oh, you're a comedian? Yeah, and you'd just go, fuck this guy. Yeah, 100%.
There's this guy that showed up in my house.
