Invincible and Comic Book Career

Give a little time for the child within you. Don't be afraid to be young and free. Undo the locks and throw away the keys and take off your shoes and sex and run you. It's Jordan Jesse Go. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's Radio Sweetheart. Jordan Morris recovered a new Disney memory. Okay. This is actually a very controversial form of therapy. And I want to make that clear. This is not admissible in a court of law. Nor should it be, because it could lead to false identifications. For example, saying, Look, there's Daisy Duck, but it's goofy. Yeah, listen, I'm not here. I'm not here to to spout psycho babble at you. I'm just here to share with you a Disney memory that I have recovered uh since the last time where we talked about a trip to Disneyland. Um The Body Keeps the Score. Yeah, that's uh that's something too. Um anyway. No one's mad about that on Blue Sky. Do I really know what that is? No. Should I have brought it up? Probably not. Don't know the context enough. Okay. Sorry As as we talked about a couple couple episodes ago where I talked about meeting the Disneyland Spider-Man and it being a wonderful experience. Although he may have been patronizing you. Yes. He may have been patronizing me. Um but he said I was a very special boy and I should keep at it and keep reaching for my dreams. And you know what? I've been doing that. Good for you. Since then I have kept reaching I have not stopped reaching for my dreams. And you know what? I never will. Spidey. I wish that I wish that our at home listeners could see where you're recording from so they could just know the extent to which you're reaching for your dreams right now. That's true. The featureless Airbnb closet you're in right now. That's right. I should n't be right. Anyway, we something we alluded to in that conversation is the Disneyland sure has changed a lot over the years since I was a kid. Uh a lot of new stuff. You're you're you're checking in on apps, you're timing corndogs, all this stuff. And something else that I forgot to bring up is that now there are people at Disneyland making content. There are contenters there, influence types. When you say people at Disneyland making content. Are you referring to employees or visitors? Uh visitors who are there making content for their personal social media. Got it. So they are like talking to the talking trash can that uh Matt who from Super Ego used to be. I have not I didn't see people talking to a trash can, but I still did see a couple different types. Here's the here's the types that I saw. Someone kind of like with their arms out swirling around as if to say, I can't believe my life. And then like they have a partner who's filming them. Um kind of like how you know that meme of like Nicole Kidman after she got divorced, like look at my life, some people doing that. To tell you what uh how they can't believe their life. You have like family doing a dance and you worry that no one's had a vaccine. Uh-huh. Is it a type of dance that implies red-hattedness? No, no, no. It's just a family doing a dance and I maybe this is just me, but I look at the family doing a dance and I think no one's been to school and I think no one's had a vaccine. These are just my thoughts. Right. But I could be wrong. I could be wrong. These could be very these people could be lousy with the vaccines. Yeah. I hope that's true. But something about it. I don't know. Just gave it away. I mean Jordan, they could look my kids still go to school, but they're vaccinated. This they could be f ully vaccinated but too weird for school. Could be right. But just perfect for Disneyland dances. And to be fair. Not all not all no school ers are canned good collectors. No, you're right, you're right. Yes. The light the this society is a rich tapestry, ain't she? Some are just confusing to their teachers. Sure. Uh so family doing a dance . Hopefully everybody's everybody's up to date on their vaccines. Then you have like Guy with a rig. You know, like have you seen the like like a steady cams? Yes. Like f have you seen the like freedom audit guys outside the post office, the guys who are taping people so they can get into a fight with cops because of free speech. I think we've discussed that that uh my friend John, the mild mannered record dealer, was at the Eagle Rock Post Office when this happened and almost got in a fight with someone despite being the most mild mannered like uh experimental rock guy in the history of the wor Listen, I when I saw these guys, I'm I'm probably less fighty than this guy and I I had a like let's kick these guys' asses feeling. And that's what they want. Yeah, it's very bad. It's very confusing. Um they're worse than many murderous terrorists. Sure. Also, probably no vaccines. Or I don't know. Who knows? Uh so you but you have a guy with that type of rig, that kind of like a you know, a chest strap for his camera and a GoPro. And I think that guy just walks around and live streams and then you watch it and pretend you're at Disneyland. That's a kind of guy. Oh . I don't know. And so, you know, you have all these these influence types, and it's, you know, it's not ruining my day, but I am kind of cranky about it. I'm like, come on, what's the you gotta come on, can't you just You know what ? I watch one of those guys. You mention ited and I didn't even think of it until now. I watch one of those guys. He is always at Disneyland. I like to watch him because I like to pretend I'm in one of those very old-fashioned back braces, like the kind with all the pieces of metal and the thing and the screws going into you and all that kind of thing. That is a fun thing to imagine. That's but I and that's also you also like iron lung play, right? Exactly. Right. I know. I know the shit you're into. Yeah. So I'm kinda cranky about this. And then I come around a corner and I see these guys filming each other. And I'm like, fucking again, do we have another set of guy what are these guys? We have another can we all just why are we and then I saw what was happening and one guy was filming his friend and the friend had one you know the giant pickles you get at Disneyland? Sure. The guy had a I mean I d Jordan? Yeah. Absolutely no. I do not know the giant pickles. It's like a county it's like a county fair pickle. You can get a pickle in a bag, you know. Uh okay . This guy he has ol whip? Yeah, that it's the same, you know, it's like a no we gotta get the big pickle. Okay. This guy has a giant pickle. He's holding it as a. That's what my wife's Don't ruin the thing. He has the giant pickle on his crotch and he's pretending to jack it off and his friend is filming it. Oh so you know, I'm like, all right, that's pretty good. Go ahead and make a content. Well but what was the semen ? Uh I mean maybe bike pickle juice. I don't know if they could rig it to fire something. Probably not. I would guess these guys this was kind of an impromptu thing when one guy noticed the shape of the pickle. But I don't know. I don't know. I mean I think it was good if they had a good semen type. You you think you you think that a tr if someone was really dedicated to Disneyland picklejack content. Otherwise it needs a whole backstory about like maybe the the pickle dicked person is on an SSRI and is having a hard time achieving orgasm. Right , yes. Yeah. I don't know. Maybe this video is posted somewhere and maybe there is an elaborate backstory to it. Um but I think but I mean maybe this is the next step for for Disneyland pickled content. Could this be the you know how young people are in the newspaper? Uh I don't I don't see I haven't seen their videos, but I read about 'em in the newspaper that gets that hits my front porch Aaron Powell Yeah, and an article about how there's so many strollers outside of the restaurants in Park Slope or whatever. Anyway, I know that there's a thing where groups of young people get together and then they run through a Scientology speed run. That's pretty good. I think that is pretty good. They could be pretending to jack off while they do it. I do like that. I mean sometimes I feel bad for the Scientologists, just the regular the ones that are just walking around in the little outfits 'cause I'm like, God jeez, come on, buddy. They've maybe had a better way out of this whole you're in. Yeah, they maybe been brainwashed Yeah. But anyway, I do think that that is if look, if you're gonna r run like crazy through something, uh Church of Scientology place, a pretty good idea. But what I'm wondering is could the new that be jacking things off that aren't penises at Disneyland? Or at the various other Disney resorts? Uh Disney World. Sure, yeah, Disney C and Japan. Yeah. Yeah. These are all places you could pretend to jack off. Something that's not a penis. Yeah. I don't know. Maybe you take it to Universal Studios. Ooh, I bet they would love that at Notts Berry Farm. Can I tell you, Jordan, we had a Judge John Hodgman show the other day here in Los Angeles. And I'm like, well, I live in Los Angeles. I should make like a little joke video about Los Angeles to plug my Los Angeles show because that's the only way that you can get people. It's cute, see anything. And I had wrote a little thing, and I'm like, oh, but I gotta be in Los Angeles to do this. Our office is in downtown Los Angeles, full of people, full of stuff. I went out on the I went on the sidewalk and talked in talked into my phone walking down the street for 70 seconds. Yeah. I felt like I was going to die, Jordan. Yeah. Talking into my phone in public for 70 seconds near ly killed me. I could I couldn't I I don't have any idea how someone I can't I can't even understand how somebody who does it for a living can bring themselves to do it. You know what I mean? Like a streamer that's a professional, that blows my fucking mind. But like somebody walking around talking to it and they're just gonna post it and just a person they know from elementary school is gonna like it on Facebook . I can't even talk selfies in public. Sure. Oh why don't you you come on you you do lots of you're you're you're I gonna do it every time I have to like fight it's like fucking talking yourself into jumping into a cold pool. I hate it every time. But you do it. You've got probably gotten used to it at this point. You're good on social media. You do a lot of you do face for the algo. I try and do it in my house. Gentlemen gentlemen protest too much. You're you're good at it. I do it in my house. I don't do it in the street. I think that's a just a generational thing. I think maybe we just like we're you know, we just missed always online a little bit. And also I think we're we're also too young to be a weird uncle with a selfie stick. Sure, yeah. Like I think if we were five years older, we would be walking around with that selfie stick in our nation's national parks like it was nothing. Right. Uh but hey, we have a young person here. We have a young person here to get to get a perspective. Our guest is a legendary comic writer and artist. Yeah, that's right. I I bumped you up. I figured what what what tier should I put Cena Grace in? I I put it in legendary. Legend ary. We I went with legendary. Uh he's worked for Marvel, DC, Image Comics. That's your big three. Plus Boom. Boom. Working for Boom sometimes too. Uh his new. Sometimes called the Big Fourth. Yeah. Uh I'm allowed to react. Ghost Ghosted in LA. You could have been reacting in LA. You could have been reacting this whole time. His most recent book Hello, hello. So happy to be here. Tell me how you feel about talking into a phone in public or taking a picture of yourself in public where you have to pose? I don't I don't love being out in the wild. You're like, hey guys, I found the hottest new spot. I just did brunch at the Universal Hilton or whatever. Uh my boyfriend got a free room and he loves buffets and hotel rooms and we were having margaritas in this like weird get you a man corridor. Get you a man. Well, you were saying all the stuff about Disney and I was like, I've got stories too. I should have brought my my one of myriad Disney sweaters. I'm not even a Disney gay. I just I go crazy at theme parks. Wait, you say let's let's let's a myriad? What are we talking? Two. Two's a lot. One one's just a standard gray Mickey, you know. You can wear it to dinner. Yeah. You can go to Chicone's. I don't know that's what I had off the top of my head. And then the other one is like a a uh like a you know, baby pink, whatever, and it's Christmas, and all the characters are like Christmasing, and the there's the castle, and I always forget the girl's name. I call her Dina Duck. She's there though. Yeah, Dina Duck. Dina Duck is there. It's Adina Duck. Adina Duck. Destiny What? It's Adina Howard. That's Donald's Donald's that's Donald's side piece. Dira, what is her name? I don't know. Yes. Daisy Duck. Dira. But yeah, Dira is there too. Um and yeah, and I wear I like to wear that in May. I like to wear my Christmas pink. Really fuck with Disney . Yeah. I mean you're really giving yourself a cultural context when you wear that in May. You're you're really relying on others to understand that you're doing a thing and not just being that guy. I think that's my entire life. And I think that's why if I have to, I would walk around with a camera and talk. I don't, but I could. Like you have a cool mustache and I think that will really help a lot in that effort. I'm like a sexy Viltram foreshadowing. But I'm not, you know, it's dicey territory is what I'm saying. Yeah. Yeah. People don't know when I'm being ironic or serious and and sometimes I don't know either. Um so that's half the fun. But so how does d at when you were at the brunch, the Hilton brunch, did you were you like did you feel compelled to hay guys? Is that where we were going with this? I almost did. I almost did because the buffet, I don't know if you've ever done it. Here we go. We're influencing right now. The buffet at the Universal Hilton. Tell me more. It's so freaking crazy. It's like three different rooms. It's like crazy rich Asian style. They have like a boba bar. They have this. They have like boba bar. They have like a bow station . And I typically don't I can't like I have stomach issues and I don't really do a lot of breakfast foods. And so it's like, you know, my boyfriend's like getting himself the crab legs, the lobster, the bacon, the eggs. And I'm like, oh where's the banana? And uh but then they had like They got breakfast lobster? They got breakfast lobster and it's stuffed with stuff. I don't know. I I I I made a joke. was like, it's stuffed with Fontina. I don't I d i it was brownish and whitish and fontina's not that. But uh yeah, but then they had a whole room for things I could eat. You know, things that just go down easy, steamed vegetables and whatnot. Yogurts, parfaits, oatmeals. Yeah. So I there are So they have a room. So they have three rooms, and one of those rooms is for people with sensitive tummies. Sensitive tummies. It's just anything before lunch is a little like my stomach needs to like catch up to me. Uh so yeah, I'm not I'm not great at brunch, but I uh there was a part of me that was like I should do like one of the speed videos where you like are going, you know, you take four minutes, but it's eight seconds of just everything they offer. Uh but the real truth of this is we had to wait for our wristbands and because I was like, I don't really want to eat anything. Do you need a wristband for the buffet? Uh I think it was because it was through his work. I don't know if you need it. He works at a wristband company. Yeah. Yeah. It's Phoebe Buffet's wristband company. Right. Yes he works at the wristband back. See, no, you don't I know you I know you don't want to like you know, I know you don't want to say too much, but I know that he works at the prime rib carving station . You guys this is recording. I can't talk about this right now. The wristband factory . But yeah, no. Anyway, but I actually ended up leaving before we got in because I was like we did the mini buffet where I had like uh watermelon with manag.ed They had a micro behind his work did his work provide buffet wristbands? Yes. Is that what we're but they ran out? And so then they had to get the second batch of wristbands. And at that point I was like, I had watermelon with Manchego, that's enough till three PM. So I said I'd rather work on wrap the watermelon with Manchego or a stack. It was a stack. With like a crumbled pistachio. This is classy. This is pretty serious. Jordan, why don't we go get some crabs? Man, I'm uh Cena, unlike you, I am such a breakfast man. I and to the point where I I now if I don't eat by seven AM uh my day is ruined and I should probably just go back to bed that I get so mad. I would love to roll up on this thing six fifty five and then just start scooping crabs on the plate. Get that custom er. Oh, yeah, sure. I'll hey. Listen, if I can get I, you know, I don't like to do this. If I can get access to the Hilton bar, I'll say hey guys. Hey guys. Yeah. Hey guys, you're at the Hilton Bar. Yeah to eat breakfast. I am not a huge breakfast lover in terms of pancakes, etc. I don't hate them. I I like them perfectly well, but I'm not like one of these people who's like, oh I love I I love breakfast food or whatever. But that having been said, I would eat lunch at any time. I'm looking at my watch like I'm ready to eat lunch the second I get up, I'm good to I did it the year w we did this last year and I did I think that's what I ended up doing was like just having myself kind of like you know like a nice nice kind of thin cut of steak. Mm-hmm. Korean style, I think. Okay. Yeah, and then I had rolls. I had rolls. A lot of times it could be ten thirty at eleven A.M. Koreans will eat a very uh ritzy piece of beef cut thin. Like a very fatty piece piece of beef cut thin sometimes. Yeah, I can do that over bacon. That'll that'll stay down. Yeah. Steak and eggs. There's a breakfast, Jordan. That's a nice breakfast. Um listen, we're talking about the Hilton buffet. Yeah, of course we're gonna want to go there, but here's what here's what people are screaming at their podcast machines right now. You got three noted banana slugs on the podcast. Uh yeah, Glorp Glorp. Glorp Glorp, of course. They all went to the same college. We want to hear about what Cena did at UC Santa Cruz, but first we want them all to sing the UC Santa Cruz fight song. Okay, let's all do it. Oh we hear the gu ys who went to C Santa Cruz . Oh we're the guy who went to C Santa Cruz That's right, that's beautiful. Some good science depart ment s and F. We did the other stuff . Plus a gorilla cadaver. Plus a gorilla cadaver. Let's find out more about that. I think in the in the in the colleges that didn't have names the number ones? Uh-huh. Like, so the res uh UC Santa Cruz residential college system. So uh it's uh relatively small for a big public school, but it's still div subdivided into residential col leges. Yeah. Where you spend the first year or two or in my case three years until they m said I couldn't stay for a fourth year of your college experience. In the like subdivisions or whatever. Yeah. I was uh Yeah, I like to me I'm like, oh that was X-Men Red, X-Men Blue or you know, whatever. But I I was Stevenson. X X Force or uh X Factor. Alpha Force. Stevens Stevenson was uh Stevenson was the college of the original Sound of Young America co-host, Matthew Dobbs. Ooh. Who co-hos ted for one or two weeks before his class schedule chang ed. Uh but the but people that Stevie High. It was known as Stevie High. Oh I like that. Because it was like an extension of high school. And but people like the real fans are like it's it hasn't been the same since Matt Dobbs left. That was when the show was great. That's I mean it's okay now, but um Do you still get letters? Yeah. Hard cop people send hard copy letters. Um wait, so so who had a gorilla cadaver? I never I was there four years. I never saw a gorilla cadaver. I never saw one either, but I was told one you know, somehow I made friends with one of the ones in the eight, nine, tens. And and that was more like science and medical focused. And they said that like underground there were like animal cadavers and there was a a gorilla cadaver. And I I mean listen, I'll believe it. I I I didn't smoke weed till I was twenty five, so I believe anything that I experienced before that. Yeah, so it wasn't a weed weed hallucination. No. You know those weed you know when you smoke weed and you just like see a bunch of hallucinations? So like I think at some point Yeah, actually I think right around when we were in college 20 years ago, 20 to 25 years ago, UC Santa Cruz realized it got like ranked, you know, number one party school and stuff. And and this was because they were giving a lot of points to for doing mushrooms and not a lot of points for dangerous binge drinking. Right. So like it ended up ahead of your Arizona states and your Florida states or whatever. And there was a si big effort to change the reputation of UZ Santa Cruz and make it more serious. And what they did was they boosted instead of s they knew that they wouldn't get they couldn't get away with eliminating all of the UC Santa Cruz bullshit. Because people would lose flip out and lose their minds. Like the cows, they have to keep the cows lower. So they decided they were gonna water it down by adding a lot of people who would take classes. Science students take most of their classes in like four hundred person lecture halls. Yeah. Uh so they're cheaper and uh they're serious and so they added a bunch of colleges with just numbers instead of names and uh they put all these new people there and also apparently this gorilla cadaver. Where in the timeline were you from the transition between no grades, just assessments, and some grades? Because I was in the middle and I was hybrid, so you could take some classes for pass no pass, and then the rest you could do A B C D . I think I think they we could choose if we wanted one or the other. Yeah. And they introduced that I think like when I came in. Like it went from all narrative evaluation to intro ducing grades because I think they realized that like all the narrative evaluations would start with John did very good in the class and that meant B, you know. So they they started giving the option because they said they was for people who wanted to transfer to graduate schools uh and needed a grade point average. Yeah, yeah. I was you could take a quarter for pass no pass, and I made the stupid decision. I was like, I'll take all the classes I don't want to take. Like the science and math. And uh and then I just got so dangerously close close to not passing, because I was like, well, I I don't have to go today, and I can wing it, and then it's every time I was like, What are you doing? This is statistics. I don't know how to wing statistics and I don't know how to cheat on statistics tests. So yeah, that was uh advice for any listeners. Take the hard ones for a grade. Oh . I mean, also they don't do that anymore, right? It's all gone now. I think it's all letters. I th I don't even think there's anything you see Santa Cruz. No, I mean I think what you have to do to graduate is capture and kill a gorilla. Yeah, I think they just if you apply to UC Santa Cruz, they just send you right down the street to Cal State Montere y. They're like they got an aquarium. Just head because find a gorilla in the aquarium. Over there. Can I really eat seals? Yes, Jesse. Some UC Santa Cruz adjacent news. Ooh yeah. That'd be great. Okay . I just somebody share this with me on No Bad News Blue Sky the other day. Well, okay, so first of all, I just want to say that the SEAL is fine. Whew. I just want to say the SEAL is fine. Nothing bad happened to the SEAL. The SEAL was uh mildly surprised, but that's it. Now uh Heidi Clume's husband. Yeah. You see how's he doing? Well one bad thing happened to him. I don't know what it is, but it's she left his mark left its mark on his face. This is an article from Surfer Surfer magazine. Okay. Surfer.com. Better be able to sleep after this. And it's written by Dashel Pearson. He's the editor in chief. They got the big they got the big Gahuna Alright, I'm ready. I'm gonna skip the headline just so you can get the full flavor of the uh text. Vile behavior spread across the internet yesterday as scenes of a man throwing a large rock at a monk seal on Maui began to circulate. The man was reportedly found following the incident, and some citizen justice was issued. He got what he deserved, the video says. He threw a big ass rock at a sea lion, sick , and proceeded to say, I'm rich, I can pay the fines. On top of that, he shoved my girlfriend. Meanwhile, an unidentified gentleman begins wailing on him. Watch here. Wow. That's uh how now have you seen the wailing, Jesse? So A I L I N G I imagine. Yeah, that'll be a W A I L G I N G. I went ahead and and took a look at this video. Yeah. Yeah. This man is I mean I'm gonna show this man from behind to Cena and you're gonna tell me this is a guy that goes to Hawaii and throws a rocket as seal, right? Yeah. Like that's what we s that's what we have a picture of here. We yeah we legally can't show you but I can agree. I can yeah, I can attest to that. And you know, and then he goes to the Unite the Right rally afterwards. It's this guy. He throws this rock at this seal. And then you just hear this voice of the lady, and she just goes, Hey , you just threw a rock at a sea lion. I got that on video . Dude, you can't be doing that. And then he goes, but did she also have the camera on her? No, no. Only on him. And it looks like. I don't know. It looks like a fucking Sasquatch video. Like it very low quality video, this whole thing. I mean you see now you saw the picture of the man. This is not a high resolution image. You can see what's happening, but it's not a high resolution man either. You know what I mean? No, exactly. Thank you. It could be a naturally low res matt. So and it the screen is covered in text. So this is like an Instagram video, TikTok video, and the screen is covered in text from the like local semi-news out let that published this video, right? Like this is uh, you know, uh shitgoing down on oahoo dot com . Only they don't have their own website. It's at shitgoing down on Oahu or whatever. Uh And so the screen's covered in text and you see the rock throw, you see the woman the woman who's probably the girlfriend of the man enter the picture. She looks pretty good in a bikini. I'm not gonna lie to you guys. I mean I just haven't I haven't been to the beach in a long time. I haven't seen any bikini babes, so maybe I'm just you know, I'm just like go I I'm just have that like a hooga built up inside me to a good you know. Plus it's low resolution, you can't really tell. Everybody Everybody looks good low res She looks like the cool world girl. Yeah. She looks like the cool world girl. Oh yeah. She's like this the whole time. Yeah. She's sort of a Jessica Rabbit type. I uh any time I have to post my a selfie, I uh I filter it through a PlayStation one 'cause I look great. I look gre I look great low poly. That's how I really I say put it in 4D boxing for me. Yeah. Run the Yeah. Okay. So it you see the guys you see the guy kind of turn and go like but you can't quite hear what he's saying. You can only hear the girl go like you to you just throw a rock at a sea lion sick. It's obviously it's a harbor seal. Yeah. And he goes like and then it cuts just to the screen of the text and then it cuts to the guy again from behind. He's at the top of like, you know, a a a beach access trail. And he's reaching for the doorknob of the little gate on the beach access trail. And then just this watery dude with no shirt on just comes in and the only thing you could say is he gets wailed on. Like this dude wails on him. It is a fucking torn ado of wailing. There is no order to it, but this guy is the guy that is doing the whaling is small but yoked. Dope. Uh this guy's a very look, talk about beach bods. This guy's got a V V shaped torso. You saw that. You saw that in four K. Yeah. For some reason that was four K, but that's the one. Yeah, the one guy is in four K and the one guy looks like he's betamax. Sure. He's coming around from the sides in circle punches that are going whop wop whop whop whop whoop whop whoop like he was trying to start up a torn ado in a soda bottle or something. Oh yeah. It's a classic science experiment This will do it. This will get him down. It's possible I know more about science fairs than fights. Sure. But if this doesn't get him the baking soda volcano will this dude gets wailed on wailed on so fucking hard. He just gets they just wailing him and wailing him and wailing him. And then I got so excited I got so excited about this video I I opened up the comments because there's four thousand fifty nine comments on now. Wow. And then um somebody goes violence is never the answer except sometimes like this. Two scoops. Well done. Two scoops. I don't think I've heard two scoops before. Does that mean like well done? I like two scoops. This is so satisfying to watch . The rage of a thousand ancestors was in the fists of that young man. Mama Earth needs more warriors like him. Well done, prayer hands. This is better than w uh these are better comments than like uh watching a whatnot comic book auction. Oh yeah. Yeah. So I just discovered those and those are crazy comments too. Can I ask you a question? Yeah please consent. What are those? Consent given what are those? I I also quite What are these? What are these heavy naturals? Wait, let me read one more and then I want to talk about these auctions. Okay. Oh yeah. Maui boy fitness. He commented, Oh man, this made my day. Heart. Whoever brother is, let's hide his info, but also let me know on the side so I can Venmo him some money. Yeah. Can we Orchid laughing? That is not AI. That is a human being. AI could never be. Oh, AI could never. AI could never. AI could never. Yeah, I could never. Um multiple people suggest they show this video on incoming flights to Hawaii. Have fun, but just don't mind your Ps and Q's, or a guy will come out of nowhere and start wailing on you. Okay, same as um yeah, I someone tried to explain what not auctions to me and I spaced out, but I am I I realize that it's part of like the new comic book economy. Can you explain these things? What not as a live stream auction? I guess so, yeah. Never ask me to explain any new trends in comics. Okay . You know, because I'm over here being like, well remember this old Archie panel? Herb trippy. Yeah, we all remember. Nice pivot, Cena. But no, yeah, whatnot's like livestream auctioning and and my friend just like got addicted and was on it and being like, I got I wanna buy something. Do I buy the Wonder Woman uh drawn by Terry Dodson and written by Jody Pacult? And uh but like there were also, you know, live comments happening and the one that I can remember off the top of my head was like someone was like, Man, this is one goaded page. And it's like Yeah, that's what I'm thinking looking at like one dollar comics that well. People are goading too many things these days. Yeah, so that that's I'm sorry, I wish I had more. I didn't think I'd talk about this, but you know what? I'm fine with people glazing. People are doing too much complaining about glazing. I think there's a perfectly appropriate amount of glazing. There's just too much goading. Too much you say, yeah, okay, you're you're fine with glazing. How do you feel about gooning? You know I left a goon, baby. Uh yeah. You know that's why you brought me on tonight. Wow. Okay, gooners . Game Goonin, because we got a legend. Uh Cena, you legendary gooner. Cena, you uh you mentioned you didn't smoke any weed until you were twenty-five. You were probably well graduated from UC Santa Cruz. Did you get up to any Santa Cruz bullshit though? We're talking hacky sack, we're talking drum circle, we're talking to banana slug. Whoa. That's the classic. I never did that. I licked a banana slug. I would go hiking. I'd lick a banana slug. Um do they have hallucinogenic properties? No, they just numb your tongue. Oh that's probably pretty cool. Yeah, I mean you know, to touch it. Oh, I should have gone to the Indian restaurant, the spicy Indian restaurant after. Yeah. I'm an idiot. Alright, I gotta uh get my time machine. Yeah. Go back to college just for that. Or you know what? Get on a greyhound. Yeah. There's still you can still gotta shot you still gotta shot at this thing. I just went to the mystery spot for the first time. I still haven't done it. It sucks. Don't go. Yeah, it's pretty dumb. Yeah, I never I never fell for a lot of it. This is uh I'm I'm no anding. I'm no I'm no I'm no butt. Did you uh mostly just made me want to barf. Did you do First Rain, the nude runaround campus? No, but I will admit I took pictures of my friends. Okay. Which is like I you know what I mean? Like it's like that's the the the breaking the trust thing. That's called well that's called I mean what is college without comp ramat? Yeah, if that was the if that's the thing that comes out about me at college, like great, fabulous, you know? That I didn' t do anything crazy. I didn't wait. I have a we don't have to answer the question, but I asked a group of friends a question that was very fun and uncomfortable. If you were like gun your head, and even if you say no, they like stick you with a shot, you gotta do it because you're susceptible after this shot. If you had to go to like one problematic party and you have to participate in it, which one would you go to? Like Antebellum South? Oh Arabian Knights. Oh I mean I gotta say it's probably uh stole the Koi from the Koi Pond for MTV. Oh yeah party that was the scandal when we were going there to see it. Now you're a little younger than us, so maybe you missed that, but there was some guys in It's hard being eleven. In a nine You don't look a day over ten . There's was some guys, there was a one season MTV show called F rat Life that took place at UC Santa Cruz, and one of their anti cs was like stealing a koi from the koi pond and like eating like cook cooking it and eating it. And uh yeah, I know. And they went to jail. They went to jail. They went to jail for like six months or nine months or something. For oh, you know what did happen is a friend of mine got caught using uh Napster or Kazah on uh the college internet and got like a 40-page document where he was like clocked and he got fined and everything. Was he downloading coy ? He was uploading porn. I don't know what he was. It was probably like a bright eyes album that everyone was downloading off of Quirky and the Juice Pigs, but it was labeled Tenacious D, sure. Yeah. Um to answer your question, Cena, is Edward Forty hands problematic? Is that like insulting to the Forty Hands community that people would like you know get out of this and not get clipped. Yeah, that's fine. That's that's super ct ape forty ounce small liquor bottles to your hands and Yeah. Let's just say that. Let's let's all of us get out of this conversation safe. I'll s I'll do I'll do I'll do a real one. Pimps and hose. It has to be It has to be like But I can be positive about sex work. That's my That's how I do it. I do the Pimpson Hose party, but I'm really like positive towards sex workers. Uh I'm telling them that it's real work. I'll give mine. Mine would be Cholo, so I could be Chola. Mm. Like I want to do like the big hoop earrings. I want door knockers. Yeah. Or or something like this is I mean like deliciosa, you know, like something ridiculous. I'd go all in and that that's what I would do just because I I I would like to have that picture for me of me looking that ridiculous. I'm probably five years young for the abs like I was a I was little at the peak. Like I'm gonna if we say the peak is nineteen ninety one I'm making that up. Uh I was ten. And so, you know, it was uh not accessi not directly accessible to me. However, as I was becoming an adult man uh as I was going through my changes . Yes. Your male changes. It was all that lay within my line of sight. Yeah. And so to this da y, it's not a big part of my life, but to this day, just if I just see a lady who has uh outlined lipstick, who has uh big gold hoop earrings uh with her name written in baseball script in it. Uh if I see if I see a girl wearing gorilla-cut Ben Davis khakis. I become I have an involuntary erection because it I imprinted on it like a baby bird, but for sex. Like the way that some people are horny for uh the characters from Disney Robin Hood. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. It's that but Cholas for me. Yeah, yeah. Because that was who was around. Yeah. And I and I'm gay and saw that and I was like, I want to be her. Mm-hmm. So I would you know, it's like okay, gun to my head. Okay, I'll do it for a night. So Cena is that why you're always washing those low riders? Yeah. Yeah . Okay, hold on. I have a low rider I need washed. Let's should we take a break and then come back for a little bit more? I'm gonna open up my Instagram and watch the main type of video that Instagram feeds me now. It's just where a guy with one of those uh little phone microphones goes around and uh at car shows and shit and says, What's your favorite oldie ? We'll be back in just a second on Jordan Jesse Go and love you love and love and love and love being la and la love you long let me love you low . It's Jordan Jesse Go.

Which is not what we were speaking of, but you know. June 11th, Judge John Hodgman is in Boston, Massachusetts, or specifically Brookline, Massachusetts, at the Coolidge Corner Theater. This is a former movie theater, now multi-purpose theater that uh John worked at in high school. Hey, cool. Uh, we're going to be joined by the one and only Mr. Eugene Merman . Mr. Eugene Merman back from his life-threatening traffic accident that he was saved from by the governor of New Hampshire. That's a true story. Wow. Cool. And her security detail.

Go to maximum fund.org slash events. Jordan, all the internet has been talking about is bit. ly/slash coolgarf. Jesse, uh some wild stuff has been happening in the world of bit.ly slash coolgarf. Of course, that's the website you go to to order a signed in the mail copy of Baby Garfield number three, the adorable comics adventure that features a story from me and Eisner winner, Ten Fam, about Baby Garfield going to the beach for the first time and yes, you should order it, Jordan. You should order it online because I'll tell you why. I went to the I went to the comic book store, they were sold out of number three. All they were number two, and I said, No, I don't want Baby Garfield number two. I'm here for Baby Garfield number three. But Jesse, it baby Garfield number three not out yet. I believe it comes out on June 5th or 6th. One of those days. So here's what here's what you were doing by going to bit.ly slash cool garf you pre're ord ering your cop. Got it. The good folks at Golden Apple Comics will ship it to you in the mail. Guess what fucking happened? I went up and talked to a guy at the counter of a real comic book store and asked for baby Garfield for no reason at all, apparently, because it wasn't even out yet. I could have just gone to bit.ly slash coolgarf. Okay, what else happened? That's true. June 10th. It's out June 10th. And thank you, Jesse. Thank you for thanks for getting into these comic books I work on. That means a lot to me that my friend checks these out. A lot of people I don't know . Thank people I like people I know don't like you know, I re anyway. Thank you for the I don't enjoy him, I don't care for him. No, that's okay. Yeah. Too violent. I just don't like the idea of grown men wearing little outfits. I understand. I get it. And thank you for buying them despite your moral objection. Here's what happened bit.ly slash cool garf. Everybody wants this thing. Everybody wants it signed and shipped to them. It's sold out online. And the people are flipping out. People are like, there's no more of this thing. I'm I could get sure I could get a non-signed copy, but who wants that ? You know? Here's what I did. I called Golden Apple Comics here in LA and said people are banging down my fucking door going to bit.ly slash coolgarf and not finding anything. You gotta order some more of these things. So they did. This is a finite number. I'm not gonna make this call again. When they're out, they're out. This is a one time call. One time call. I'm not gonna be these uh they're they're they're busy over there. You're already used it up. Reg is isn't gonna let you make another call. Exactly. No more calls. Uh so I I think so. Don't wait bit.ly slash coolgarf if you want that comic. And also, uh, I will be at a couple of cons coming up, but before the comic comes out, so I won't have it there to sign for you. Okay. Uh I'll be at GalaxyCon in Nashville, May 29th through 31st, and at the Toronto Comic Ar ts Festival in Toronto, June 6th and 7th. Jesse, that's a fucking free con. That's free. Wow. That's a couple cool things. It's over there at 50. It's at 50 Carleton Street. So come on down to 50 Carlton Street in Toronto. Uh Galaxy Con and National, that's at the convention center. You gotta pay to get into that. It's still gonna be a lot of fun . Uh and at Toronto, uh you you have to use PayPal. So, you know, get the PayPal app. And okay, I I just wanna mention I'm not gonna be in any cons this summer. Uh I'll be running a few cons this summer though. Oh, like uh long cons, like a fake casino type stuff. Or in short I do short cons too where you go in and you ask for change but then you go through a whole thing and then you know you walk out with more than you came in with. And I'm gonna be doing a bunch of you have a bunch of Bibles. You have a trunk full of Bibles. Yeah I can have a trunk full of Bibles but it it turns out Jordan uh they're just copies of lonesome Dove. I sell you boy. I sell you a Bible. Boy. You open it up, it's this uh intergenerational Western saga. Boy. Anyway. Uh we'll be back in just a second on Jordan Jesse Go. It's Jordan Jesse Go, I'm Jesse Thorne, America's Radio Sweetheart. Jordan Morris, boy detective. And I'm Cena Grace, heavy naturals. I like the th The thing that the thing that I like about the article, guys , is that they brought in the editor and the chief, and the editor in chief is like it is my prerogative to write the sentence. Meanwhile, an unidentified gentleman begins wailing on him. I think the editor in chief was like, I'm so miserable. Please let me write that. Like he was so so tired of fucking copy editing shitty articles by surfers. He wanted to point to that and be like , that was me. You know what? When I was the editor, the director of the KZSC News at UC Santa Cruz, there was this surfer dude who was on my news team. I can't think of what his name was. He was real fucking handsome. It was really it was really something else. He was just the handsomest surfer bro ever. I was like, what are you doing here, dude? He was nice enough. I just couldn't figure out what his angle was. Anyway, everybody had to write a story and he just wrote a story about just surfers kicking the shit out of each other that really blew my mind. I was like, what? What are surfers doing? He's like, oh yeah, holding each other's heads underwater. Like as is it'll look like Blue Crush Meat Sin City? Oh, honestly. The hard boiled world. Cena, you could sell that to Peacock now. I can get Peacock on the phone and we can do it. Let's do uh Gabe Patch and we'll make a comic in twenty minutes. P Gabe Patch and Peacock tell them that uh Miniature Wife is canceled and that we have a new show. Oh man. Jordan. Yeah. I've spent the last six weeks. All I've been thinking about is an imagined rivalry that lives only inside my head between the miniature wife and the sheep detectives. Ooh that's like that's a Godzilla versus Kong of our age. I'm walking past the bus stop the other day. Yeah now miniature wife that lives on the side of the bus here in Los Angeles. Yeah. Every bus, the side of every bus in Los Angeles has the miniature wife, played by Elizabeth Banks, on top of a train that is, I guess, a tiny toy train, because she's way bigger than the train, but she's min iature. So it's hard to say how big the train is. But apparently anyway, she's riding around this train and then it just says, uh their marriage is great. There's just one small problem is what it says. You know what the problem is, of course. She's infertile. Oh yeah. She could she could never bear children . So that would be great if he was just fine with her size. The size is not a problem for him. He's just like, I want to have biological a biological kid that's mine. Then I'm walking past the bus stop. That's where the sheep detective's poster lives. He's sedentary. Now, first of all , both of these things have been well received. That's w perhaps the most incredible part of both of these things. Jesse both been well received. I've seen the sheep detectives. I had a blast in sheep detectives. Okay, so I'm walking past sheep detectives. This is a movie where fucking Wolverine, I don't even know what's going on this movie. I saw a preview for it. I can tell you what it is, but it's very well received, so I bet my friend Jordan had a blast there. It seems I guess it's good. It seems crazy that it would be good . But it makes sense. And I I walk past this thing, Craig Mason wrote this movie. Yeah. Former Jordan Jesse Goh guest, Craig Mason. Past Jordan Jesse Goh guest Craig Mason wrote the sheep detectives. Who wrote Miniature Wife? Kurt Anderson? I don't know. Steve A. G. Steve A. G. probably wrote it. Uh guy that it's incredible. Craig Mason wrote The Sheep Detectives and Chernobyl. That's now that's a resume. That's a resume . He's like that guy that was like the nerd guy on Buffy and then won an Academy Award for his writing on what was it, the Way Way Down or whatever, and then he directed those Hunger Games movies. Oh, I don't know about this guy, but he was one of the I do know the evil nerds from Buffy. I didn't know that they went on to have a lot of nerds has won an Academy Award. And he like also co-created what was it, Empire or something? Crazy. And he was just the little dweeb with that almost shot Sunnydale High in season three, episode seventeen, your shot. Oh my god. Um well life is a rich tapestry. No buffy. I know the episode I know what episode you're talking about. So one guy from Buffy, I think was English. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Talking about Giles . The Folgers dude or whatever. Yeah. That guy who wears little glasses. Maybe an issue with the sheep detectives. It's a enjoy very enjoyable film. Not a perfect film. There are some It's not perfect for $125 million. It's not perfect. They spent $125 million on a crazy amount. You should see how realistic these sheep are. These are like Do they talk? They do talk. With celebrity voices. Oh. Celebrity voices. Nor McDonald. Norm McDonald is dead. Why why are they still making talk ing talking talking about it? They've used AI to revive Norm McDonald to do the voice of eight different sheep. One of my daughter's favorite things to do to me is just list various movies that Norm MacDonald agreed to do Uh a an issue with the sheep detective is that some actors are doing British accents and maybe shouldn't be. There are some high school play level what's all this then governor British accents in this film, which is very enjoyable. We just watched the lady from Shanghai for our new show TBW, to be watched. Which is exclusive to members of Maximum Fun. If you want to listen to to it, go maximum fun.org slash join jjgo uh or be a member already. Thank you for being a member already. And Lady from Shanghai is a movie written, directed by and starring the great Orson Wells. Whoa. Uh who does just a fucking how would you describe this? Like it even to call it an ooh tut Irish accent, like it's beyond fucking it's like a spotty leprechaun ac like it's not even a consistent leprechaun accent. It'd say maybe has never heard an Irish accent Irish accent. I don't know how he would have cobbled together 'cause you can tell that's what he's trying to do. This film I think we both liked a lot. This is a very good movie. Where in his career was this movie? This is sort of in the middle. So this is like he was he was a little bit starting to tailsp in out after the after the great triumph of Citizen Kane. So he m made Citizen Kane, he made the stranger, and then I think the next one that he made was this movie. So he was in a space where people were like, yeah, good idea. It was like he was monomania cal and he was still a movie star. People weren't really sure about him directing movies, but he was married to Rita Hayworth and she was the biggest star at the studio and he offered to make a movie for her because specifically he was doing a stage production of around the world in eighty days and he needed fifty five thousand dollars to get the costumes out of Hawk. And you just had that or did you did you just know that before TBW? No, I looked it up. I looked it up for TBW. And if you can't listen to it, you go to Maximum Fund.org class join and you listen to it. Uh Jordan if if you'll be having a chestnut then I'll be eating it. Oh the French . Oh the French. Yeah, it's not even it's it's wild. Um we got some calls to listen to, right, Jesse? Yeah, I think we probably do. Gabriel, do we have calls to listen to? We do, and the fellow is Danny Strong. Danny Strong Wait, which fellow? Oh the fellow from Buffy. Yeah. There you go. Oh fun factoid. Uh gave us one of these people, Peacock, who like have to have the show now of the calls. Yeah, is one of them from Peacock because we have this Blue Crush meets Sin City show that I have a name for it now. Oh, what is it? Bloodwater Sports. That's perfect. Blood Water Sports Singular. Or Bloodwater Sports Singular. Blood in the Water. Could be. There we go. Yeah. Okay. Probably John Peacock. Yes, John Peacock, the president of Peacock . He's a talking peacock. Oh . Voiced by AI Norm McDonald. Uh yeah, let's play the call, even if it's not from the Peacock streaming network. Hello, Jordan, Jesse, and guest. This is Tracy from Long Beach, California, calling in on behalf of my nine-year-old daughter with two momentous occasions. The first is that last Saturday I took her to see Social Distortion play at our local independent record st ore. Shout out fingerprints music in Long Beach, where she got to be front row, meet the band and get her record signed. So that was pretty cool. The second is that the following day was Mother's Day, so we went to Hamburger Mary's for brunch with a bunch of other ladies in our family, where she got to see her first ever drag show. So now I have a photo of her eating a chicken finger while waving dollar bills in the air that I'm definitely going to frame. Alright, that's all I got. Bye . Bye . Startin' 'em young there in uh uh Long Beach on social D. Right, yeah, sure. How old how old was the kid again? Nine years. Nine, yeah, I think that's I think that's um that's about the age where you're going to start to appreciate uh Mike Ness's heart on your sleeve, lovable drunk songwriting. Yeah, and the and the various uh t-shirts and bumper stickers of it that I've seen. Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah. That's my intimate knowledge of the skeleton. Oh yeah. That's about all you need to know. Um that sounds like a fun night out in Long Beach. Day out in Long Beach. One this is one day. Weekend. Weekend. It was a weekend. There you go. Drag queens. I love that. That was for me. You picked that for me. You knew that I was here. Near my house in San Francisco, but is it w is it a Long Beach institution? There's one in West Hollywood. Yeah, there's a West Hollywood one. I shouldn't know more about this, but I don't know Well you see and I don't know if you you you perked up at this. Uh I know everyything ga. How are the chicken fingers at your typical drag brunch? Is that the order? They're the safest. I think they're the safest thing you can get. Okay. You know, the French fries and chicken fingers, because then, you know, you have the lubes. You have the barbequois sauce and the honey mustard or or ranch. Or bleach. Or a bleach. Or a blizzard dippin' sauce. But dippin' liquids . Thank you for translating it to heterosexual for us. Yeah. We call we call them savory lubes. Got it. Got it. I guess I get a sweet lube tooth. You can't get yeah, you can't get s I mean, I've never heard of anyone get sick from a chicken finger, you know, it's so fried to safety. Yeah, a chicken finger is I mean this is like uh John Hodgman is obsessed with this one time where he and I were on tour and we had to eat at a like a highway pit stop. Like they have in the big northeastern freeways, they have these rest areas that are nothing but one weird sort of semi mall. Mm-hmm. It's surrounded by a sea of parking and it's owned by the state or something. I can't like in California, the rest stops are just a place to pee. Yeah. Basically. And maybe a vending machine. Yeah, exactly. I I I score drugs there sometimes. Oh cool awesome. And so I went in there and there was a McDonald's and I ate chicken McNuggets. And I don't really like McDonald's in general. But at the end of the day, if I am at an airport or at a one of those places, I will eat chicken nuggets gladly because I know exactly what I'm gonna get and it will not make me feel And whereas I don't know what's been going on with the mayonnaise on any given thing at an airport or uh you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. My sandwiches are gonna be real dry. Yeah. So uh I feel like that is something that you could rely on in a drag show. You could rely on on in a strip club. You could you just get a you could rely on it at the snack shack at a little league field. Just get yourself a chicken strip. This nine year old girl is ready. She knows the cardinal rule. The cardinal rule. Very beautiful. Um we have a famous segment, I believe, right? One of our famous segments that we don't think of So Cena, just so you know, we actually are really creative, think of a lot of good ideas. You're not the only person who thinks of a lot of good ideas because you've written all these comic books and made all these comic books So this isn't just someone calling in to tell us something they wanted to tell us anyway and saying it's for a segment we thought of. We thought of the segment. That's what it is. Jordan, Jesse,um linous Guest , this is Luke in Seattle. I'm calling for your famous segment subreddit the bad boys. Uh I have been banned from commenting in the subreddit . Um R slash bone collecting uh which is a great resource for looking at pictures of old dirty animal bones on the ground if that's something that you're interested in. And uh a common occurrence there is someone will find a bird pelvis and post a picture of it and ask what kind of animal skull it is and to anyone with any kind of interest in animal skeletons it is clearly not a skull at all and this causes some consternation in the R slash bone collecting commun ity. And my response to this was uh the I anytime someone would do that, I would always comment looks like some kind of fucked up dog. And after doing that dozens and dozens of times after af over a period of years I have been officially banned from commenting. But I still look daily because I gotta see those old dirty bones. Love the show. Thank you. Bye. Our collar is the this says something about society. Right yeah, that's what I was bone called thinking of. Uh scene, I don't know if you know this, but the uh daily comic strip uh Heathcliff is insane now. Uh yeah used to be just kind of a funny, you know, cat gag thing, but now has become the kind of m weird mind palace of a lunatic. Wait, are you like pulling my leg? I'm not pulling your leg. Uh yeah if you check out a modern Heathcliff. Jesse do you have a Heathcliff for a scene? I don't you know I don't are we talking about too much about Heathcliff on the show? Maybe, but it's I think it's relevant here. Uh so uh I'll give I'll give you two examples just from the last couple of days that I really noticed, really stood out to me. Uh in this one, Heathcliff is um riding a trash can with wheels uh that has a pug painted on it and then it's being pulled by four pugs. He's going past a window and an old lady is saying to her friend, I don't care for that pug chariot. Okay, all right. And then you're not yanking me. And then here's this other one is uh there's a cat and a bird. The cat of course is Heathcliff the cat . The bird is on the white picket fence and they each have a big red megaphone. And it looks like they both they're both of their mouths are open. So they're saying something into the megaphone at each other, and they're right up against each other. And then in the window is an is the old man with the mustache. You know this guy, George. Oh yeah. Heathcliff's owner, I think. And he says So that's kind of what Heathcliff is now. That's where we are. Okay. Oh no, wait, hold on. There's one more I want to tell you about. And I was I'm gonna say I think that lizards make good pets. That's about I guess the idea is that yeah, like a cat uses a megaphone too much. Yeah, cats use megaphones too much. Therefore you would want to get a uh an animal that famously do esn't use a megaphone, which is of course a lizard. Okay. So this one uh this one uh Heathcliff is on his front porch and he's arms a kimbo and on the grass there in the front is three little elves with red hats and then the old lady she's leaning out the window of the house o at the younger woman at the white picket fence and she says teen gnomes teen gnomes uh so on the Heathcliff subreddit there is uh a guy uh and really I I don't know the gender of this person. I'm saying guy, but uh a user. Uh who just basically as soon as a new Heathcliff gets posted uh this person will post. This really says a lot about society and it's a very funny running g ag. Um this person is a hero. ena, do you do you do you hang out on Reddit? Do you have a subreddit that you enjoy or are you just like fuck that place entirely? where they wear egg suits and the bands called Dump Dumpty. Well I think I I think I have a new subreddit I will get into. I I only just started really getting into Reddit because I I'm that meme of like I'll trust an eight year old subreddit thread about something before I trust AI. Like and it's been a lot with like I'm like, why is my like iPad doing this thing? Like why won't you know why won't my Apple pencil, you know, you got you gotta have a Reddit user tell you . Reddit is one of the least broken parts of the internet. As much as we ten years ago talked about how broken it was, we didn't have any idea how good we had it. Yeah, how bad it could get. I had I I I this is old information. I don't know what's on it anymore, but I remember I I dated a guy uh years ago when I was working on that Iceman comic at Marvel and he was like, oh like there's like Reddits about you and I was like, oh God, oh what does it say? What is it? Don't tell me what And he's like, he's like, Oh, they're all about how you're really nice. And I was like great. Fabulous. That's the best that's the best experience anyone has ever had with Reddit. Yeah. Yeah, that's not what the Reddit's about me are about. Oh shit. Well that's my new subreddit. It'll be I'm gonna be obsessed with you and the updates there. Thank you. But no, I'll be able to fucked up that Silo ck comic. I only post an R slash Dumpty fan. I think that I this is just a little Reddit update. Yeah. For for the longest time when we would talk about Reddit here on the show, my go-to Reddit for something un you know untoward was r slash gone wild curvy yeah r slash gone wild curvy gone what I think so r slash oh yeah. I don't know what happened. Maybe they went too wild. Or got too curvy. Did it get replaced by R slash curvy gone wild? No, I don't know. It's just it just disappeared. It's like it never even existed. Did we imagine gone wild Kirby? I didn't imagine it. I have very vivid recollections. Gone Wild Kirby. Now that that's a sub Braddon I still like to visit. Talk about heavy naturals . Jordan, you would think that R slash uh Gone Wild uh Kir Kirby was about the uh Nintendo guy from Super Mario . Uh but it's actually about the work of Jack Kirby. Oh, yeah. So it's about different like galactic mind beings with heavy naturals. Different kind of super smash melee. Sure. And their naturals all have a have that patented energy crackle. Yeah. I was honestly, I was really relying on you guys to know some Jack Kirby specifics. Cause I remember that there are, and I could just say Silver Surfer. Yeah. But like I know that there's some shit. I know that he had some guys that were fucking lived in space and were way crazier than Silver Surfer, right? Yeah, he did like new gods and he got all it got weird and crazy and everything was all pipey and long cars and Okay, so imagine if those are fucking that's what gone wild. Can you can you imagine Granny Goodness from the planet of apocalypse going wild and dumping them out with that patented energy crackle. These are funny things that a few people will like.

Listen with the whole family on maximumfun.org or wherever you get your podcasts. It's Jordan Jesse Go. I am Jesse Thorne, America's Radio Sweetheart. Jordan Morris, boy detective. And I'm Cena Grace, Kirby Crackalicious. You took you mentioned uh fame before before we w started recording that you had performed at Dynasty Typewriter, the popular comedy venue here in Los Angeles in drag . Yeah. Do you have any preferred drag personae? Uh I just called myself seeing a lot of things. And it was Oscar Montoya just told me to do bad drag race. And I thought it was like you can be bad. Mm-hmm. And everyone like I saw it one time and there was someone who just was like stacking shitty, you know, wigs, like five dollar Amazon wigs, and I was like, oh, I can do that. And then I get there, and these all of these people are both stand-up comedians and very good at makeup, and then also auditioning for RuPaul's Drag Race, and then like I was a guy with facial hair, wearing lingerie and like a wig and some fake tits, and so uh never again, even though Oscar's like, come back. And I'm like to make everyone else look better. Uh but yeah, I gotta come up with another name. I want I want like a slutty name. I feel like I think seeing a lot of things is great. Yeah. Well thank you. Uh the lady from Drag Race that was on Bullseye, whose name is escaping me right at this very moment, but she was in uh O'Marry on Broadway. And Oh Jinx Monsoon. Jinx Monsoon, thank you. She was so cool. So what a c what a cool lady. She is on Broadway right now doing a Judy Garland show. Yeah. And I don't know to what extent it is a drag show, and to what extent it is a sincere tribute show. I mean, obviously, there's there is not a drag show of Judy Garland that is not also a sincere tribute to Judy Garland. However, I don't know where it lands on the level of camp and seriousness. Obviously, real life Judy Garland, very high on the camp scale. However, I don't know where it lies on those things, but I'm ready for just a pure uncut old school revival. It's just gonna be Judy Garland, Diana Ross, just the purest classics. Sorry, Lady Gaga , you're out. All drag shows now are just references from nineteen seventy. Oh. That's my pitch. I can't I can't respond to that on record because any response I get will get me fucked over at the gay bars. We don't no, we don't want that to happen. We don't want that to happen. Cena did you gentle nod. Gentle nod. Gentle nod, yes. Uh acknowledging that Jesse said something. He did say something. Um mm mm mmm. Uh Cena, did you lip sync as part of this uh performance? Yeah, I did Sex Shooter. What Sex Shooter? From from Purple Rain. Uh Apollonia song. Oh, okay. And then uh yeah, I had a leather jacket, I took it off. I was wearing one. Because I'm a heterosexual man. The the waters of Lake Titty Tonka or take Lake Titty Wonka, whatever it doesn't matter. Yes, yeah. She the sex, the fuck scene. Fucking breathtaking. When that happened when I was sixteen or whatever, when I saw Purple Rain the first time and she took off her clothes, I was like, this movie's got that too? Holy shit. And then me, that that was was I saw I like, that is within five minutes of him showing her his doll collection. Yeah. Remember that? He's like, these are my dolls. More the fuck. That movie is wild. Yeah. So I I did her song in it and and I and I uh brought out bigger and bigger dildos to throw at the audience because I knew I didn't have it. So but I had dildos. Mm-hmm. And so and I still didn't win. Who won? I think true detective. Uh Nick Shepher,d I believe is his? Civilian. The fix was in. The fix was in. It was right. You know? You know? Yeah. Yeah, that's what happened. I would have voted for you and your dildos. Thank you. Just so you know. That's why I'm here today. I knew we're trying to get a retroactive win for a drag show that already happened. Uh no, uh Cena you got uh you got you got you got comic books to promote. You got let's let's hear. What what what are the latest releases? Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah, so I just uh yeah, The Ghosted in LA complete collection. It's twenty dollars. It's all it's all twelve issues of this awesome book about a young girl who lives in an apartment complex with ghosts. Um it's really cool. Lots of actual LA places, LA people in it. Can't believe I got all those clearances. Uh and then yeah, and then I just put out a book about pet grief called Life on Pause. But that's self published, so that's harder to find. But yeah, making comics over here. I'm excited about that. I'll tell you this. I loaded up some kind of internet website uh like that shows everybody that ever worked on every comic book. Mm-hmm. Loaded up your name. First of all, seven hundred pages long. What? Because you worked on a lot of comic books. I did. Impressive. I was a comic book editor. I started when I was in high school. I was a co I was an intern at a comic book company. And then yeah, and then I I was uh Robert Kirkman's editor at Skybound and so Invincible. So my twelve year old lost her shit over you and she's like, oh, those are good ones too. That's what everyone's telling me. Yeah, they're like, they're like, you worked on the good ones. Do you still have your comps? And I'm like, maybe at my mom's. Like I probably have like five copies of all of those. I don't know I gotta find out. Yeah, that's a thing. People want the comps. That's a collector thing. The comp they want the single issue. Oh yeah. Or they want uh we never got printer proofs, but yeah, they Invincible's cool. And this is the nice thing is I always they're like children. I loved Walking Dead, but like I always loved Invincible more . And so it's just great that like ten years later it's this huge thing and like walking, you know, around this neighborhood, you know, where you see like street vendors and stuff, you'll see like people with like their own bootlegs invincible stickers that they make. And that's just wild to me because it was just this you know, this book that these guys made that I got to edit and it's a freaking global phenomenon now and yeah, a twelve year old freaking loves it. I mean I trip first of all, my twelve year old shouldn't allow beed to read it or watch it. Uh however, it's too emotionally devastating. That's the problem. That part, Jesus, yeah. I've only read a little tiny bit of it, but I've w watched a fair bit of the television show and uh I thought it was very good. It's great. No, it's both versions are great. Good show, good comic. Great comic. Great Ghosted in LA is probably the same. Ghosted in LA is better. If I was ranking comics it'd be number one Ghosted in LA . That's how much I like Invincible. Invincible's better. Anyway, all right, I'm done. Number two is gonna be Silver Surfer. Silver Surfer. Uh number three is gonna be Invincible. Kirby Crack Horror. Kirby Crack Hore. Uh Cena, are you doing And I don't care. Um Cena, you got any con in coming up? You got cons ? I'll do Comic Con. Okay. Even though did you get nominated for Neisner? No. Neither did I, and it really sucks. Me either, guys. Come on. What a shit year. That's the worst thing that's happened this year. Sure. I mean, I think when so many real bad things happen, I just hyper focus on like dumb work stuff, and I'm like, I don't anyway. But I I'll be at I'll be at San Diego Comic Con. Are you guys going? I don't think I'm going this year. Jordan, you you gonna go uh event? I think I think I sh I have things coming out. I feel like I should be it I I uh I I'm I'm gonna try I'm gonna give it a shot. I think so. I think so. I think so. I'll come down I'll come down and see ya. That'd be great. I would love to see you. Cena be,fore we go, I got one question. Yeah. You make your shirt? No, oh y no, no, no, no. This is but I did was like this right okay. But I wore it because I needed a white base. Oh I was talking about the shirt on top because it has an unusual pla cket. What? I thought maybe you were a seamster. No, no, I no, no. I did artwork I do artwork for this lady. For one of the Rylo Kylie? For Jenny Lewis. Oh cool. But I just am a big Rylo Kylie fan and it was the clean shirt I had and I wanted a white face. You know, before we go, I just want to say one thing about Jenny Lewis. Yeah. Beautiful woman. She's well she's a very beautiful woman. But uh it wasn't what I was gonna say. I'm not fucking gross like that. Uh no I, was gonna say that she's really good in the wizard. Yeah. That's how that's how that's how we know you're straight. Having watched the wizard as an adult man uh with my child, honestly, I mean good is probably a stretch, and I never saw it as a child. So like good is probably more than I would say, but like it's not bad. It's very watchable. I was I thought it must be bad. And it gets you stoked. It gets you stoked for the power glove. The newest Nintendo accessory that worked and was good and helped you play games better, like that one bully who carried it around in a velvet case. But I mean, like, real talk. I found it pretty pleasant to watch, and Jenny Luce is genuinely great. She's like 12 or something. I don't know. She's genuinely great in it. Like I was like, oh, oh, that's Jenny Lewis, the singer. Yeah, you're like, you end up in depth. Not uh the postal service. Yeah . Anyway, we had a lot of fun here today.
