19 Nov 2024

Transcription

Chapter 1: What unique experiences does Ron Funches share about his journey in comedy?

0.031 - 28.485 Unknown

I almost lived my dream of petting a koala. Got real close, but they would not allow it. I found out while I was there that apparently most koalas are infected with chlamydia. Don't judge them. It's just a fact that I learned that I am sharing with you. Most koalas have chlamydia, which is crazy. I didn't even know koalas went to Coachella.

He's a voice actor. He's an actor. He's really fucking funny. I actually really like Ron, and I'm super excited to talk to him. And he's friends with some of the people that we've had on this show before. My memory fails to tell me which friends of the show he is, or he has, but whatever. Anyway, he's in the circle of trust, in the tree of trust, and so we'll let him in the nest. Um...

There you go.

0

126.337 - 149.503 Bryan Green

We'll figure that one out later on down the road. But thanks for joining us. Here we are. So I was reading an article a couple weeks back, but I thought I'd bring it to your attention. There is so much attention on Trump taking the White House and how already two people have tried to assassinate the president by the FBI standards, not by mine, but have tried to assassinate the president.

0

149.543 - 156.275 Bryan Green

They are really concerned about people trying to do harm to President Trump, which is terrible. That's not the answer.

Chapter 6: How does Ron view the impact of his unique voice on his career?

156.375 - 159.621 Bryan Green

In my opinion, I'd rather have a bloodless president.

0

159.601 - 182.132 Bryan Green

argument over politics if you don't mind right um because it's 2024 do we really need to be shooting each other up we don't we don't have muskets anymore you know what i'm saying no one's running around musketing it anymore it's like different kind of things going on they have decided that they are going to be using boston dynamic dog robots to troll the white house lawn really as secret service

0

182.112 - 193.992 Bryan Green

Helpers? Agents. Tools. Yeah, as helpers. And they've already been spotted on the White House lawn running around doing practice trials. These dogs. I saw a video of it. It's the craziest fucking thing.

Chapter 7: What are Ron's thoughts on the intersection of comedy and wrestling?

194.893 - 215.222 Bryan Green

I'm like, robots are now protecting the White House. Robots. We have gone too fucking far. That's for sure. Shut down 8chan, 4chan, QAnon conspiracy, whatever it is. Shut it down. When you need robots to troll the White House, isn't that kind of dystopian a little bit? I don't know. I find it dystopian.

0

215.243 - 217.985 Krissy Hoadley

Robots are gaining headway.

Chapter 8: What future projects does Ron Funches have in the pipeline?

218.025 - 221.369 Krissy Hoadley

Chrissy says robots are the wave of the future.

0

223.031 - 246.619 Unknown

Whabam! Chrissy says robots will soon be with us. Wow! You take some dynamic motors and a little bit of AI, whatever that is, and you throw it into a cauldron with some orange hair and a bad tan. Whabam! We're protecting the president from harm with our Secret Service dogs, who aren't really dogs. They're what, Chrissy? Robots!

0

246.64 - 270.76 Bryan Green

Robots. Robots. I just find it to be really dystopian. Isn't like our Roomba is a robot? Roomba is a robot, technically. Yeah. Listen, when I was 12 years old, 12 years old, I won't forget this. The year, maybe 11, maybe 12. Actually, I don't remember how old I was. But I won't forget the moment that for Christmas, all I wanted was one of those

270.74 - 287.437 Bryan Green

robots, back in the 80s, they had this version of a robot, and it would, you know, roll as walking, and its little legs would move, but it was really rolling, and then you could give it certain commands, and then it would do certain commands, like lift your arm, put it down, you know what I'm saying?

0

287.457 - 300.491 Bryan Green

Or roll this, it had like a little plate you could put on its hands, and it'd be like, you know, roll this over to the left, or whatever. It was the most ridiculous. You look back on it now, and it's like, it's not really robots, it's just... A motor.

300.511 - 300.631 Krissy Hoadley

A toy.

300.671 - 321.153 Bryan Green

Yeah, a toy that's just running around. But that is the seedling of robots that now control some manufacturing, a lot of industry, and now apparently, you know, guarding the president of the United States. I wouldn't trust those things to be out. Have you seen those Boston Dynamic videos of those robots that do things?

321.193 - 321.353 Krissy Hoadley

Yeah.

321.373 - 322.754 Bryan Green

Some of them are fake. You have to be careful.
