- In what is the
craziest timing ever, a day after I tell Don
"WE'RE DOING A PODCAST DAMNIT",
Jay texts me and asks me to be on his new podcast.
-
- So yeah, I'm
finally gonna break down and do a weekly video podcast
(that will also be available audio only) with Don in
2018. We'll give it a year, if it gets traction we'll
keep doing it... if not, we won't. I feel like so
much of ME is missing from "The Journey" because
of Facebook taking the place of those thoughts, I just
want to capture talking about present events and
there's just no better way that through a weekly talk
show with a friend. The name I have come up with is
"Flash & The Fundamentals" because although one
might think race best defines our differences, it's
actually not even close. I'm the nuts & bolts guy,
he's the swagger. It defines how we almost always talk
to each other about our issues in life. I find it
wildly interesting and I hope to document the
REAL DON for at least a year so before his ass
dies people don't think he's Goldie Fuckin' Wilson.
Make your mark man, it ain't the tooth.
-
- ANYWAY...
-
- This podcast Jay
is starting is called "Everything But" and he wants to
interview people about the shit no one usually talks
about because they're so busy talking about their own
shit. I feel the same in Hats & Minigolf
interviews. Jay and I have great conversations and
they generally go on forever so I can see why he
wanted me to be his first guest. Now, here's my
connundrum...
-
- Jay voted for
Trump. And as much as I wanted to edit this down
to 15 minutes or whatever, I really really really
think it's valuable for people who think Trump voters
are a certain way... to watch this ENTIRE VIDEO. Have
it almost shock you. Now, my personal opinion is that
Jay is the normal, white, male that is mostly
concerned about what affects him and those closest to
him therefore most liberal causes do indeed fall flat
for him. But even that being said, it's fascinating to
hear this guy talk and know that he walked into a
voting booth, read the name "DONALD TRUMP" and
thought "yeah, that's my guy." I don't give a fuck how
much Hillary annoyed you, there's something extremely
fucked up about our information sources if you thought
the LITERAL AFFECTATION OF MR.
BURNS FROM THE SIMPSONS was a
reasonable choice.
I'm stealing my own lines from the podcast. I'll let
you take it in. It ain't short, but it's
interesting.
-
-
- Good stuff. Just
watched it again. Looking forward to doing this weekly
with Don. And of course, when Jay is in town, we'll
have a conversation with him. Oh yeah, "Flash &
The Fundamentals" will be shot at the GolfKon
bar.

- Giddy-up.
