| 0:00.0 | I mean, nobody admitted my mother was schizophrenic, |
| 0:02.4 | and she was talking about Elvis being her dad. So, like, no, he's not gay, and maybe Elvis is Patty's father. Shut up, let's all have a nightcap. This is death, sex, and money. Death is dead. We don't have to worry about him anymore. The show from WNYC about the things we think about a lot. |
| 0:39.6 | But I do think the unwanted boner is a thing males have to deal with, and it can be hard and need to talk about more. Oh, what's that odor? I think it's the scent of a deal. I'm Chris Getherd. Filling in for Anna's sale. I know everybody out there misses Anna. I do too. Trust me. We're going to catch up with Anna a little later in the show. |
| 0:54.7 | I myself, former guest on death, sex, and money. I'm also a comedian. Anna talked to me a while back along with my wife, Hallie, about comedy and depression and anxiety, our careers, all the things you've come to expect from this great podcast that I'm lucky to be a part of. |
| 0:59.6 | Now like I said, I'm a comedian. And look, when you're a comedian, you're just around comedians all the time. You get numb to it. Comedy becomes like static. You just watch all these comedians. It's just |
| 1:04.8 | background noise. Comedy after a while. Then I met Tim Dillon. A couple of years ago, there was a tragedy, a young gay student prematurely ended his life by jumping off to George Washington Bridge. |
| 1:16.2 | I told my friends and family that I was gay the same week that happened. |
| 1:21.3 | So you can only imagine the phone calls and the emails that I got. |
| 1:24.0 | They were like, we hope you would never do anything like that. And I was like, |
| 1:29.1 | as bad as things get for me, do you have any idea how long of a walk it is to the middle of that |
| 1:36.7 | fucking bridge? I did a show with this guy a few years ago. I had to follow him. I had to go after |
| 1:43.8 | his set. Didn't go well. He was too funny. And he was like a hurricane. It was like a hurricane or a tornado hit the room. He was so smart and manic and just throws all these opinions against the wall. And he can tell me the perspective of a drug addict. And he can tell me the perspective of a conservative and of an angry guy, |
| 2:02.8 | all these things that I think I am not. He makes me understand. |
| 2:06.7 | I was a child actor. I started doing coke at 12. My mother is a schizophrenic. I was a |
| 2:12.5 | closeted homosexual. I'm politically all over the map, though I lean conservative. I was in the mortgage |
| 2:18.2 | industry. I idolize hucksters, thieves, cons, and cheats. My dream is to be a traveling |
| 2:25.8 | salesman through America. And if comedy works, that's nice, too. Now, I've heard of people |
| 2:32.3 | who say, like, they smoke their first cigarette at age 12 and |
| 2:36.0 | even hear some concern. What I would say are generally concerning stories of someone who says, |
| 2:39.8 | oh, I've started drinking when I was 12. Sure. You're the only person I know who says they've |
| 2:44.1 | started doing cocaine at the age of 12. Is that true? I did a line of cocaine with my friends in |
| 2:49.5 | my friend Tina's backyard and and we did a few, |
