| 0:00.0 | Andy, it's Nick. I'm calling you from Iceland. |
| 0:06.0 | Here's the thing. I've been here for two days and I've made the executive decision. |
| 0:10.0 | I'm never coming back. I'm quitting the podcast forever. |
| 0:14.0 | I stepped off the plane in Reykjavik. They saw my flowing red beard and Mississippi for Eric the Red. |
| 0:20.0 | I am a Viking god to them. I'm being highly revered by everyone here as far as I can sell. People are bringing me food and wine and taking care of me. They think I'm important. So I won't be coming back. Thanks for everything. I hope everything goes well. I hope the sit-ins are going well. I think you're in the 50s now or something like that. |
| 0:38.5 | So I just want to call you and give you a heads up. I won't be coming back to America. Thanks for everything. |
| 0:44.0 | Okay, Andy. Just calling you back. Things have changed. You were right. It's pretty expensive here. |
| 0:51.5 | Like I kind of underestimated how much everything costs and I'm running low on funds. I was wondering if you could advance me for next week's salary plus maybe another couple, like 2K? I know you got it right now. You've been playing festivals all over the country. I see your crowd. Okay, I know you have the money, man. Just send it, dude. Just hit me on Venmo. |
| 1:11.2 | The Wi-Fi here is pretty good, man. So just, can you send me like, I don't know, three grand? I don't know, maybe $4,000. Honestly, I might need $5,000 to get through the week. And then I'm definitely coming back now. Apparently, I was wrong about the Viking thing, and they were just being nice because they work here and they were a flight attendant |
| 1:29.0 | and so things aren't going as good as I thought and so if you could just get that money to me |
| 1:37.1 | if you I really need it by the end of the day if anything by lunch if you can do that okay uh have a good |
| 1:43.1 | day I'll see you next week for work again. |
| 2:03.2 | There we go. That's that synchonosity. Is that a word? Synchronicity. Synchronicity. And we're back. Andy Frasco's World Sasing podcast. I'm Andy Frasco. How are we doing? How's our heads? How's our minds? We got my, um, my second man in charge, my vice president. Fucking Sean Eccles on the phone one. |
| 2:06.6 | Sean. Hey, buddy. Wow. You never get to hang out in Denver when, uh, when we're. Yeah, well, |
| 2:12.9 | I mean, we kind of did on Fourth of July there for a second. Yeah. We're both depleted and empty shells of a man. Trying to impress the ladies in our life. Nice week and I'm here. Being present. We're being present. Oh, shit. It's so hard to sleep when we're not on the road. Do you sleep better on the road or off the road? I mean, you're kind of forced to sleep on the road when you can because you get those little disco naps on planes or whatever you fight for and then you're so tired that you do actually sleep. But I'm at home, I think too much. You're off your routine and you're not in gig mode. So it's like, okay, I'm just waking up at 9 p.m. on the road. And then it's like, let's go to bed at 9 p.m. on the road and then it's like let's |
| 2:51.8 | go to bed at 9 p.m. shit doesn't find no it doesn't fucking work it takes too long |
| 2:55.9 | does Toby get pissed no but she just early riser and goes to bed earlier do you have to |
| 3:01.7 | lay in bed with her or can you like watch TV yeah for sure but like usually the as it |
| 3:06.8 | goes if you turn your screen off yeah get it all dark, fall asleep eventually. How many edibles do you have to eat? Unlike my wife. I can eat 10 to 20 or, you know, 50 if I'm feeling crazy. Yeah. 50 milligrams. 50 fucks me up and it's like, it's fun. It's like peel yourself off the couch and it's a little scary too.'s like whoa have you have you've been eating those doubting gummies they're my favorite yeah yeah they taste the best and like yeah they're good that you can manage those like on planes we've been eating those yeah killer i love it what about the i've i've been rocking before i go to bed now although one the other the other morning we were flying somewhere you had two flights. I't one on the first flight and I had a second one and I had a little panic attack. Well, yeah. I was like sweating my ass off and everything. It was like, oh man, I ate too many, you know. It was like 10 minutes of hell. We stayed up all night. Sure, yeah. So you're like, you're crazy. I hate that. |
