Oh, yeah. And how about one more time for the best damn band in all the land, everybody, playing for you live here in the live music capital of the world, Austin, Texas. That's Carlos Sosa on the saxophone. It's his birthday, everybody. Fernando Castillo, Raul Vallejo. Normally, it's Nachos Belgrande, but tonight, tonight, I think it's Tres Leches over there.

105.668 - 126.038 Sam Tallent

How about a hand for Justin Heights sitting in tonight on the drums? We have the great Matt Muehling on the electric guitar, John Deese on the keys, and this is indeed D Madness live in the flesh, ladies and gentlemen. This episode is brought to you by Netflix, the roast of Kevin Hart on May 10th.

Some of your favorite roasters and human beings and just overall great people are going to be on that, so you're going to want to watch that because... Yeah, May 10th, live on Netflix, following the roast of Tom Brady. Fun fact about the roast of Tom Brady, the most watched comedy event of the past decade. So, we'll see where Kevin Hart lands and everything. Should be fun, should be fun.

150.95 - 169.498 Sam Tallent

I specialize in making fun of small black people, so. This could be good. This could be good.

Thank you, Sam. I think you look great, and your shirt is not too big. You look amazing, man. Thank you. Hell yeah, man. A little positive energy. How about that, Tony? I know you don't like that shit. But you never smoke crack. No, motherfucker, I ain't smoked no fucking crack, man.

835.01 - 839.136 Sam Tallent

I could have sworn. I want to go back and rewatch the tapes of your first interviews.

0

839.156 - 839.937 Brian Redban

Hell no, man.

0

840.057 - 843.122 Sam Tallent

I could swear when you had the old teeth, you would admit that you smoked crack.

0

843.142 - 860.848 Brian Redban

I ain't never smoked. You know what crack do to the black community, motherfucker? I would not be up here if I smoked crack. I'd be fucking breaking in people's cars or something, man. Or you'd be in Parliament Funkadelic. Yeah. Yeah, they smoke crack. But the crack was different. They were freebasing, you know? It's something they put in the crack.

860.868 - 868.379 Brian Redban

There's a difference between freebase and crack. That was that cameo shit there. Yeah, you know what I mean? Freebase is like cocaine and whatever they make of it.

868.399 - 870.602 Sam Tallent

How do you know all of these scientific facts?

870.622 - 882.9 Brian Redban

Because I'm from the hood, motherfucker. That's how they teach you that. How do you think he bought his teeth? Nah, I don't do nothing illegal. I just go on the road and have a good time. You know, I live a better life, you know? I got health insurance, uh...

882.88 - 886.345 Sam Tallent

Wow, that's very good for a recovering crackhead.

Chapter 3: What is Sam Talent's new book about?

891.834 - 913.882 Sam Tallent

You have? Yeah, of course. How do you like I lost the weight? No, I've smoked crack, though. I've done free base, I guess. I've never done crack. What the fuck is going on up here? You mean you two have smoked crack and David's offended that I even asked that he smoke crack? I have smoked crack, yeah. What was that like? Awesome. It was? It was really high for like 12 seconds.

0

914.563 - 915.183 Unknown

Wow. Yeah.

0

915.383 - 919.888 Sam Tallent

And how about you? How would you describe it? I didn't like it. It was very panicky, and it smelled like burnt plastic.

0

919.928 - 924.572 Unknown

It smells bad. And now when I smell it in the wild, I know every time. Actually, it was really bad.

0

924.612 - 933.861 Sam Tallent

I smoked crack, and I brought these guys back from the bar where I got the crack, and then they stole my laptop. I would imagine those are the types of things that happen. Hey, ask David. I don't know.

933.881 - 933.981

Yeah.

935.699 - 939.084 Sam Tallent

Like, I never smoked crack, but I did steal a few laptops.

940.046 - 957.627 Brian Redban

I'm living a pretty good life, and I really don't like that negative energy that's coming from over there. It's a lot of negative energy, and, you know, I'm having a great day. Yeah. You know, I've never smoked crack, Tony. Okay. I done did cocaine, though. How much cocaine have you done? In one day? What are you talking about?

957.648 - 966.139 Unknown

I used to be a bartender. I remember me and this white girl, she was, her name was what, Christy. She was like 135. Me and her moved a whole- Is that her weight or her credit score?

Chapter 4: What challenges and topics are discussed regarding weight loss?

1201.362 - 1204.526 Unknown

I just fucked a power outlet, dude. I don't know.

0

1204.546 - 1207.65 Sam Tallent

Yeah. So how are you surviving in Austin, Texas?

0

1208.331 - 1213.398 Unknown

I finally got a job. I was in debt. That's why I only have 10 mics.

0

1213.918 - 1216.722 Sam Tallent

Open mics are so expensive, yeah.

0

1216.842 - 1218.044 Unknown

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1218.064 - 1220.207 Sam Tallent

It's the big barrier to comedy. Yes, sir.

1220.407 - 1221.028 Unknown

Exactly. Yes, sir.

1221.468 - 1223.231 Sam Tallent

You don't have money. It's hard to do. Go ahead.

1223.631 - 1226.755 Unknown

But I finally got a job doing fiber optic works again.

Chapter 5: What childhood trauma does Sam Tallent share?

3933.528 - 3960.31 Unknown

And mushrooms showed me that my biggest trauma was learning that Santa Claus was not real. But here's the thing, when you think about Santa, when you're on mushrooms, you realize they've been talking about Santa for thousands of years. And they're gonna keep talking about Santa for thousands of years, yet I'm only gonna live for like 80 years. So in a way, isn't Santa more real than me?

0

Chapter 6: How does Sam's perspective on Santa change during the conversation?

3966.061 - 3986.245 Unknown

So here's my question. If Santa is not real, and I'm less real than Santa, then why did it feel real when he molested me at the mall? Our traumas ground us in the physical reality.

3988.507 - 3992.874 Sam Tallent

Thank you. Okay, Akshay Bimbit.

0

Chapter 7: What does Akshay Bimbit reveal about his journey in stand-up comedy?

3993.235 - 4015.597 Sam Tallent

What a spooky final line to say here at the comedy show. Spooky is a good adjective for the styles of Akshay Bimbit. Welcome. Thank you. Welcome, Akshay. We met your black wife earlier. How's being a father going for you? I was like, I'm going to say it. I'll roll with it. No, you're good.

0

Chapter 8: How does the drum-off between Akshay and Sam unfold?

4015.617 - 4044.666 Sam Tallent

Was she lovely? She was so lovely. Akshay, how long have you been doing stand-up? I've been all in since COVID, but it's been around a decade. Okay, where have you been doing it at? I started in New York. New York City. When I left Wall Street, I moved to LA. Okay, Wall Street. And then I moved with my band from LA to Austin. Your band? Yes, sir. What's the name of your band? The Ancient Asses.

0

4045.187 - 4053.151 Sam Tallent

Ooh, wow, I'm surprised I haven't heard of you. Red Band, you're going to have a hard time Googling that with your search history.

0

4057.888 - 4060.918 Unknown

You're going to have to close some tabs, I think.

0

4064.223 - 4091.379 Sam Tallent

That is amazing. The ancient action. Two E's. Sick. Two E's. The, just to be pretentious. What kind of music do you guys do? We're going with post-psychedelic is the genre we're rolling with. And it says here on your website that you are a drummer. Is that true? I am the drummer, yes. That's amazing. You know, Akshay, and I don't even think... I don't know if you know this, Justin Heights.

0

4091.98 - 4109.726 Sam Tallent

I don't know if you know this. Do you know about this? There's a part of the show every once in a great while, once every 10 episodes or so, when we find out someone's a drummer, they have a drum solo off. Are you down to do this? All right, Justin Heights is down. Akshay, put the mic in the mic stand there.

4109.746 - 4129.799 Sam Tallent

We're going to hear a little drum solo from Akshay, who I'm guessing is going to play the drums with his bare hands by the looks of things. Well, there's no Mexican here, so this is our first ever not Mexican drum off. This is our first ever Indian black drum off, everybody. Here we go.

4129.819 - 4134.527 Tony Hinchcliffe

This is very exciting.

4135.942 - 4172.202 Sam Tallent

Very good, Red Band. Very good. All right, ladies and gentlemen, the first ever Indian Black Drum Off. Here he is, Akshay Bimbik. Wow. All right, Akshay. All right. Yeah. Well, yeah, no, let's do it. Sam, you know what? Justin, before you get back there, because I believe... Here, come this way real quick.

4172.242 - 4204.973 Sam Tallent

We're going to get to you in just a second, because I do believe that in this crazy world that we live in, I'm betting that Sam Talent can actually beat Akshay Bimbat in this drum-off. Ladies and gentlemen, this is our first-ever Indian white-black drum-off. That's right. It's the first time you've ever heard that sound effect before. That is Terrorist with the Friends theme and baking soda.
