1625: Hug It Out, Bitch

[Tech007]

Mike briefly mentioned the Patrice O'Neal border troubles due to a prior rape conviction.

Chemda - I'm pretty sure it was discussed in serious detail on Maron's podcast #95. Long story of fucked up situation. Hearing Patrice talk straight about the experience is incredible radio.

Patrice also makes a unforgettable dating joke about fishing and a boat that is genius. I miss him.

This episode is a 'premium' buy but def worth it.

<edit - found it for ya on youtube - some audio dropouts but most of the story is there>

Legal problems starts around 1:32. Missing some audio - story restarts @ 1:58

Here's the joke - 42 -48 minute mark - "It's like being a fisherman Mark..."
Might be the best guys pov explanation of dating I've ever heard.

Both Mike and Myq shit on Keith almost saying his opinion is invalid because it's just bitching, the tag line of the podcast is Keith and his ex-gf talk shit but w/e. Anyway it all made sense though when Mike declared his just tired of the negativity, and that could explain why they try and defend such stupidity as that hack going further on America's Got Talent or Dane Cook being a joke thief and constantly repeating material, but the fact that they would defend such utter obvious shit makes me respect these two less when it comes to comedy.

Greetings! From a person who enjoys positivity. Now let me be negative at you.

I am not pro-joke thievery. I am not Dane's biggest fan, but I think there's something to considering the possibility that he didn't purposefully take those three jokes, out of the nine or so hours of comedy that he has produced (also, what are you talking about him constantly repeating material?). Maybe he absorbed them after seeing Louis do them, but when Louis himself has been vocal about number one, not caring, and number two, presenting both sides of the story, having him on his show to share his perspective... with all that known now (and Louis being on the record about not caring much earlier), do you disrespect Louis CK for not taking a hard line "fuck Dane" stance as well?

Keith shares his opinions. Guests share theirs. If we disagree, what do you want?

Just wanted to make this about me. Can we?

Sure, as long as you support labeling fried chicken as "Black People Food".

Since people buy large sized packages of food for the cost savings, how about calling them Jew-Sized, right?

Humus can be labeled "This food supports Terrorism."

You're good with all that right? You support Chic-Fil-A's stance against homo's serving or eating their food, right? Maybe if they just put a label on it...

Keith,

Food is gross, on all levels. I defy you to watch a video of a farm animal being killed and slaughtered without having it turn your stomach. Yet that will never stop you from eating meat, will it?

In the 6 years I've listened to this podcast, you have all said some ridiculous things about food on the show, and I've called you out on them several times. When you lost your shit about the ingredients in McDonald's buns and I pointed out that those are the chemicals that make up baking soda & cream of tartar for instance. Or when I thought you were crazy for suggesting that store brand frozen beef patties were better quality than McDonald's during the hamburger cook-off was another. Oh, that one was before "pink slime" became well known, guess who else puts MSM (mechanically separated meat aka pink slime) in their meat besides McDonalds yet magically never gets in the news for it?

Funny how that is, supermarkets sell some ridiculously unhealthy shit, but nobody points to them as helping the "obesity epidemic". Don't act like Whole Foods is better either, their "kitchen" cooked meals come out of cans from Sysco, they just have good marketing.

My problem isn't that you do or do not hate certain foods, that's fine, we're adults and we're entitled to our choices and opinions. My issue comes at the berating that you give others for their choices because they don't match your own. My issue comes from pretending that one restaurant sells shit food when every other restaurant/grocery store/deli sells that same shit food with a different label on it and people such as yourself eat it up and smile because you put up a Kony poster, so to speak.

I do understand that this is a show, and you're here to entertain, a part of all this is a character you become for the show. At least so Chemda has said before, not having ever met you in person that's the best I can give you. Although she does apologize for you a hell of a lot. Just saying.

People will, however, end up following your advice. You say you want to save lives, awesome. How about considering something else to save people from other than an issue that does have so much controversy, misinformation and real life consequences behind it?

How many women and men will become anorexic because of people like you spouting that "fat fuck" nonsense? Nobody can even agree what a healthy body type should look like. We consider Chemda to be healthy and gorgeous, her mother tells her she doesn't need to eat any cookies... Maybe, as a society we should just all shut the fuck up about other people's bodies period?

Your "fat fuck" berating got that guy who just wanted to buy a shirt in his size to show his pride in KATG to go on a diet. Congrats, you fat shamed a grown adult into trying to conform to the body image you feel comfortable with. Not only that you made a grown ass man thank you for the abuse. Go you, the pride you must feel.

I hope you also think to encourage him to get a doctor to check him out before he starts this diet, cause we want him to live longer, not die of a heart attack trying to exercise when he should start up gradually perhaps. Or keel over fighting through the pain, because "no pain no gain" right, that is actually his kidneys shutting down because someone who's friend's brother's cousin told him that Atkins said to cut out all carbs.

We are so fucked up on what is healthy, what is moral, what size a person should be regardless of what their DNA says, trying to fit into the body image of people who only look that way because of massive surgery and having enough money they can afford to do nothing but exercise and eat the organic meals their chef prepares for them. Why constantly add to that noise?

How about, for a change, discuss some good meals you enjoy once in a while? You used to rave about Chemda's cooking, don't think I've ever heard you say a word about something Cat's made for you, or that you've made for her. If you did it passed by so fast it was a blur.

How about getting a nutritional scientist on the show sometime. Surely there's one that can be entertaining in NY, greatest city on the earth in the greatest country in the world after all, (fuck yourself McNally) even if you haven't discovered central air conditioning yet.

[Keith]

You'll understand of course if I didn't read any of that.

[jimzhao]

Jeez, that fat fuck that gave you a message about how pop doesn't rot your teeth made me so fucking angry, and I'M a fat fuck.

Please Kieth, trust me, the fatass community is not that stupid (at least I hope not).

(Also, to Daemonik: ) You're an asshole and you spend too much time on the computer if you can write a post that fuckin' long.

[Keith]

I know you're still people. We have freaks in our weight class also.

Can you imagine that someone is saying McDonald's is the same quality food as what they sell you in health stores (never mind regular grocery stores)? Maybe Chemda's right. People really DON'T know. My gravy...

Ah shit. I didn't mean to tease anyone by mentioning gravy. It's really just a thing I say.

"A hot dog from Yankee Stadium. Potato latkes from the Four Seasons in Manhattan. Sirloin steak at Applebee's. The jumbo cheeseburger at the University of Iowa Hospital. While it would seem these menu items have nothing in common, they're all from Sysco, a Houston-based food wholesaler. This top food supplier serves nearly 400,000 American eating establishments, from fast-food joints like Wendy's, to five-star eating establishments like Robert Redford's Tree Room Restaurant, to mom-and-pop diners like the Chatterbox Drive-In, to ethnic restaurants like Meskerem Ethiopian restaurant."

"It comes as little surprise that institutions like hospitals, universities, and military bases flock to Sysco's pre-cooked foods. But well-regarded bistros and pubs have also begun to offer such items to save time and money. Recently, New York magazine reported that Thomas Keller uses frozen Sysco fries at his Bouchon bistros. (While a company spokeswoman wouldn't confirm the brand, she confirmed the use of frozen fries.) Mickey Mantle's Restaurant, an upscale sports bar, serves Sysco's pre-made soups, like Manhattan clam chowder and vegetarian black bean. And then there's Edgar's restaurant at Belhurst Castle, which has won numerous awards of excellence from Wine Spectator magazine. There, the kitchen takes Sysco's Imperial Towering Chocolate Cake out of the box, lets it defrost, and then sprinkles it with fresh raspberries before serving it to diners. "We've had a lot of success with that cake," executive chef Casey Belile says. The Edgar's menu, of course, does not list the dessert as a Sysco pre-made cake, but it does charge $8.95 for the experience."

Yes, it's really sad how much people don't know about who supplies their food.

You're right, soda will rot your teeth. If you never brush them. Now here's a tic-tac, could you quit opening your maw in my direction.

I'll see if I can manage to fit something in between your ritalin doses next time.

[Keith]

But you HAPPEN to be a fat motherfucker saying all this... That's all.

(Even your avatar is eating.)
