Chapter 1: What is Stavros Halkias's new movie about?
Das ist das Schöne daran, dass du lernen kannst, wie lustig wir sein können. Die Zeit, in der ich mich am meisten engagiert fühlte, war, als ich einen offenen Mikrofon hatte, um zu lernen, wie man Comedy macht. Und es ist cool, die Chance zu bekommen, einen Film zu machen und zu fühlen, ich weiß nicht, Dick, ich bin so dumm wie ein Scheiß. Lass uns herausfinden, wie wir all das machen.
Ich bin ein zurückhaltender Griech. Ich werde nie das machen. I had a Yido yesterday, bro. I had a Chichi yesterday, dude. Sorry, man. I thought you had some time under your belt.
No, no, no.
You know, sometimes I put on them nighttime underpants. You know what I'm talking about. Because who sleeps naked, baby?
A criminal, that's who. Not I.
Tommy Johns, that's what I'm wearing. I like Tommy Johns. I like them male negligees they got for you, them underpants, because they smooth. You can feel them and they feel good. God, you can't even believe you're feeling yourself when you got them TJs on, baby, them Tommy Johns. God, they feel so good. I want them on right now. I'll put them all over myself.
What I love about them is the waistband isn't super tight on them. Some underpants, you get them, the waistband's so tight. So I have one sip of water and then I gotta go pee-pee. I don't like doing that. Tommy John lets you feel comfortable and casual inside of your own skin. Exclusively for our listeners, you can shop Tommy John's amazing Black Friday sale early right now.

Chapter 2: How did Stavros get into stand-up comedy?
Yeah, it was big, dude. We're very excited.
That's some of the funnest, that's one of the funnest type of guys in the world. Oh, we're so high, dude.
Yeah. We're so high that all we can do is fucking laugh.
On hallucinogenics or just weed?
Yeah, we're taking some LSD. Cool. Und so sind wir da gewesen, weil es offen war. Es war der einzige Ort, der Lichter hatte, wo du irgendwo sein konntest und jung sein konntest und nicht... So lange wie du Essen kaufen konntest, hattest du einen legalen Grund, da zu sein.
Ja, ja, ja, ja.
Ich bin legal hier für Frühstück, richtig?
Ja, ja, ja. Nun, wir haben so hart gelacht... May I use the hash browns defense?
Sorry, go ahead. So you guys are fucked up? Oh, and we're so fucked up, my buddy starts laughing so hard and starts fucking choking. He's laughing so hard. The guy, the witness starts giving him the fucking... Heimlich? So there's a... Bro, I laughed. I... I mean, that would destroy me. My body was coming out of my fucking body, dude. I was doing like this.

Chapter 3: What challenges did Stavros face while making his film?
Und es tut weh, weil die demokratischen Parteien gesagt haben, dass sie nach Dick Cheney gehen wollen. Das ist so bizarr. Es ist verrückt, weil sie nach politischen, moderaten, republikanischen Leuten gehen wollen, die... Most working class people don't agree with the economic stuff that they're saying. And then culturally, it bothers me when you become a party of tattletales.
It's become a party of middle managers that want to get mad at you if you say the wrong thing. And it's like... Das ist nicht das wichtigste Problem. Das wichtigste Problem für die Leute ist, dass sie keine Gesundheit haben. Warenunabhängigkeit ist außer Kontrolle. Die Waren der Menschen haben nicht mit dem, wie viel die Bossen verdienen, gehalten.
Bernie Sanders hat gesagt, dass er dachte, wenn AI für Unternehmen stattfindet, also wenn Unternehmen mehr Geld machen, weil sie AI haben, weil sie Menschen nicht brauchen, dann sollte das Geld an die Mitarbeiter gehen. Natürlich. Sondern sie würden ihre Stunden für die Woche reduzieren. Jetzt geben sie ihnen eine bessere Lebenszeit, anstatt es zu machen, wo...
Well, we don't need you anymore. So you don't get anything and we keep all the fucking profits. And I do think, I mean, I think we talked about it a little bit last time where it's like AI is a tool to fucking do creative shit. It's so weird. It's like it should be making normal people's lives easier. It shouldn't just be for rich people to be able to charge less.
Like there should be some protections for workers and we should be able to like, you know, You should be able to fucking buy a house. All these fucking regular issues that weren't really hit on. It was just, well, you got to vote for us because the other person's worse. And even though I think that is true, that's not a winning message. That's nothing.
Especially when the other side is offering, they're at least saying shit's bad. And they're saying it's for the wrong reasons. I don't think it's immigrants' fault. It's definitely not fucking. Trans people aren't the people buying up houses and not letting you buy it. You know what I mean? But at least they're saying something's wrong. And they're saying some fucked up shit, in my opinion.
They're trying to make it culture war stuff. They're trying to divide people who should be on the same side by saying, oh, gay people are bad, trans people are bad, when it's like, the people trying to fuck you are rich people. That's how it's always been. That's the fucking, that's a tale as old as time. And it's weird.
Some people think they're going to be fucking billionaires when it's like, they don't make off crypto or whatever. And they're like, well, when I'm that rich, I don't want to be taxed. And it's like, You fucking don't. You're sharing a loft bedroom with your friend's dad who's taking dick pills. You don't have to worry about fucking tax rates going up on you. Bet on yourself now.
Bet on yourself right now, man. How about we raise some fucking taxes on the richest people and you get some fucking healthcare. It's just, I don't know, man. Maybe I shouldn't have asked. It's a lot. It's frustrating because I...
