Getting Out With Jesse Xander
Raw, unfiltered, conversations and interviews filled with laughter.
Getting Out is Hosted By Me, Jesse Xander, Im a singer/songwriter, musician, and audio engineer…..oh yeah, I’m also an ex con and a recovering addict. I spent 3 years in prison, during the covid pandemic and locked down 24 hours a day for the majority of my time. So every day is a gift that I have to remind myself to even open.
I spent most of my young life in the Entertainment industry. I had the privilege to work with artists such as The Sugar Hill Gang, Biz Markie, Poppa Don, Inner Party System, Ty Wiz and many others but before I knew it I was in sooo deep I didn't think id ever be able to GET OUT, let alone repair all the damage I caused. But I’m alive and I’m free.
I started Getting Out to tackle topics such as addiction, mental health and Prison Life-which comes with stories of loved ones passing and a lot of pain. But also stories of redemption and over coming. GETTING OUT gives us a chance to look at ourselves our past mistakes, and hopefully help someone that is dealing with something similar.. Or maybe you’re just interested in what prison life is like and want a good laugh? We got you.
Learn to laugh at the person you were, use your mistakes as your personal super power.
So lets get out together!

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19,. The show my name is jesse. Am I? To the side, to the front, to the left? Whatever you want to see, whatever it is to you, is my friend adam what's good, and then on the other side. He got his brother behind the cameras doing the switching.
Speaker 2Hey, johnny what's up there?
Speaker 1buddy cameraman john cameraman johnny switching the scene. So what's going on? Everybody? I don't know. It's been like a bland week. It's been a fucking. Actually in the news it's been some crazy shit going on.
Speaker 2I know, I know we got some fire kicking off.
Speaker 1We got Diddy fucking.
Speaker 2You got Kamala Harris with the little AirPod earring things. Did you hear? Wait what? Okay, all right.
Speaker 3You hit me with that.
Speaker 2I Did you hear Wait what? Okay, all right, all right, I'm going to start it off fresh, all right. So I don't know the actual company, but there's these earrings, like you ever hear, the headphones that are budless, headphones that go through the skull Like it's kind of like off of vibration or something.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, yeah, You're talking about the jawline, Like it'll hit your jaw. Yes, yes, yes, and they could hit your jaw and you could hear the music in your head.
Speaker 2So there's these headphones that are liked the same way but they look like pearl earrings, and if you looked at Kamala Harris, she has the same exact pearl earrings on while she's talking. She's pretty much done a fake, because a lot of her topics like when Trump hit her with. You've been in office for about three years. What have you done?
Speaker 1I got a really wild chat. Yeah, that was a good one, pitter with. You've been in office for about three years. What have you done? You know I gotta watch. I gotta like really watch that dude that was a good one.
Speaker 2I was having a little bit of fun watching that debate.
Speaker 1I do. I wanna watch it so bad, but like I don't know, I don't know much, cause I know if I watch- it.
Speaker 2You don't have to know much, bro, you'll get like. Am I allowed?
Speaker 1to like would people be? Like are you allowed to watch if you don't know what's going on?
Speaker 2Yeah, you just chime in, you chime in.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, I chimed in and I seen Trump get someone to shoot at him. We were watching dinner.
Speaker 3I did, you are right.
Speaker 2We were eating dinner and we're like, oh my God, someone took a shot at Trump. I did.
Speaker 1Dude, I did catch a shooting, allowed to like I am someone that will watch something, have an opinion about it, and then I want to go out and talk about it. I don't know if I'm allowed to talk about it, you have your views.
Speaker 2You know I, I it's not on like really politics of my views, it's just like legit what he was saying, like you know yeah, now he trumps a beast, trump's nuts, like you know. I love how they're trying to ask him about the uh obamacare and he's like well, obamacare is a good system. It's not a great system, but I have some ideas in play. They're like so what are your ideas? He's like I'm not president, so uh you know, he's so fucking smart man.
Speaker 1He's a business guy. You know, that's what I'm trying to tell people and make them understand too. He's like he the only thing what I do know is that my whole family is a Wall Street family. I know music, I know audio and I know the Wall Street industry pretty well. Through my family, we are all Wall Street.
Speaker 2Well, that's actually probably a leg up on some people, because my mom works in a hospital and my dad's an iron worker. I know basic, I know construction.
Speaker 2Yeah, exactly, exactly I wish I knew more about that. You know, and like my mom's, like she works in the hospital, so that's why I've always had a good idea of medical and stuff like that, and it guys goes hand in hand with my diabetes, so it made me have a better understanding. That's why that's great. I look at some people and like, oh, I got diabetes. They look like they have a death sentence and I'm like, nah, it's really not that hard, like if you understand body mechanics.
Speaker 1Yeah, exactly, I've been watching too, Like if you eat right and you understand what you're putting into your body you can possibly negate the symptoms and understand how to maybe, I guess would it be a full-on recovery from it or just, I guess, impede the process of it getting worse.
Speaker 2I feel like that could have happened to my toes, you know.
Speaker 3You know what I mean, until I actually seen an actual doctor.
Speaker 2I was just holding down the area, not letting it get worse.
Speaker 1When we first started I was like, oh, come by, like we'll talk, see if we can do something together. And you were telling me about your foot and I know, through carmine and like experience, like you said, and that cuts could be bad.
Speaker 2You know, like especially so I was like I'm really not afraid of much, but like stepping on glass or attack, like you know get the beaties, you might lose your feedies. You know, you know so catchphrase of the week.
Speaker 1Dude, they gotta put that in the fucking. What's that guy? The commercial like I got diabetes and oh my guy I always give him the wrong name.
Speaker 2I always call him like oval ricker, but that's the guy who does rickenbacker he's gotta say that yeah, the big old guy with the mustache, he's gotta let everybody know he's like.
Speaker 3He's like get the diabetes, lose your fetus.
Speaker 1Is that it Ruffo Brindley? I believe so.
Speaker 3Look at Johnny coming with the freaking names out. He was in that movie, the Thing what.
Speaker 2Whoa, that guy was a paid actor, yeah he's an actor.
Speaker 1Yeah, dude, that is something that he should be paid to say, because I never knew that it was possible for someone to lose your feet or toe.
Speaker 2Bro it's like the inevitable. It's like you know you have to be a good diabetic to not lose your toes, but that's really like the whole thing. It's like you'll get diabetes. It's like kind of like a shitty trading card game. It's like you get diabetes.
Speaker 3It's like see you know, you can kind of get yourself in shape.
Speaker 2But like you know, how did you get in shape? Was your sugar really high and you just lost all the weight, or are you doing the right thing?
Speaker 1It's kind of nuts that's a true call.
Speaker 2It's kind of like one of those you know the Goosebump books remember at the bottom of the page it's like turn to page 29 and see what happens.
Speaker 1Goosebumps, Don't start with the fucking nostalgic dude. All right, you brought back you. Just hit me with the lemony shnickers real quick. I used to, I had it with my dad Watch this.
Speaker 2My dad used to send me when I was a kid he's like go read a book in your room, Go read a book. So I used to get tired of reading these big ass thick books. So I and it was funny because, like you know, it would say you're going down a dark path. All right, go to page 56 to escape this, or go to page 59 to go across the bridge. You know, and then you're like all right, let's see what's on page 59. Bro, they had those in Goosebumps.
Speaker 3Yeah, you can pick your own adventure books.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, and like yo, I would finish the story within like a half hour. And so I half hour and I'm like, all right, read my book. My dad's like you didn't read. I'm like, yeah, I read a half hour, I read a whole story.
Speaker 1What do you?
Speaker 2want from me.
Speaker 1All right, all right. I don't know if I Johnny, you mind if I tell everybody that you did about the spectrum thing. Well, I just did Johnny's on the spectrum, johnny, but he's an upper, be back. He'll be on a couple episodes. He'll come back to chill Kev KDG. He is on the spectrum as well, but he is a different type of yeah, it's all superpowers, I guess.
Interactive TV Shows
Speaker 1Yeah, absolutely. I was going to fucking say something about this and I lost my fucking. What was I saying about the fucking thing? Oh, I was going to say something about this and I lost my fucking. What was I saying about the fucking thing? Oh, I was going to say something about this.
Speaker 2Damn it, johnny, I lost it dude I was, so there I was right there, dude, it was the spectrum. The spectrum, I know, I know we were on the spectrum and I got touched.
Speaker 1I got touched by the spectrum. That's what happened.
Speaker 2You got touched by the spectrum and I got touched. I got touched by the spectrum. That's what happened. You got touched by the spectrum.
Speaker 1It hit you, Dude. I think it happened.
Speaker 2You went down a dark cloud and you're like, whoa, I'm back now, bro, that's what happened?
Speaker 1I'm back, I'm back. Yeah, dude, I'm back. Yes, I'm back, don't let me stay. Let me stay there, though don't let me fall back, I won't all right. So all right, listen. We were talking about the pick your own adventure. Yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 1So me and kev got stoned really stoned okay, and he stayed over the house one night, right, and he doesn't he doesn't watch many things besides like, uh, like reels and stuff, and the thing is is too you don't understand like he has a lot of people like in his house that live with him. So, yeah, where's that fucking?
Speaker 3He has a lot of people that live with him.
Speaker 1So it takes some time to do like you can't really Some people on TV. He wants to play video games. He can't do certain things so he can't really watch what he wants to watch.
Speaker 2I go through the same thing in my house. I kind of enjoy watching my brothers play video games. After a while it's just a younger brother thing. You watch your brothers play video games and you get to see what your dad's watching, until you have the house to yourself and you can finally put on whatever you want to watch.
Speaker 1Or it would be like late night. Yeah, absolutely. But the thing is, johnny, remember I, I tell you you got to be a director, you got to be on top of your scene, shit. So the thing is, I showed him I don't know if you know about it, anyone watching, it's called Black Mirror, bandersnatch Do you know about Black Mirror, John.
Speaker 2I feel like dad's talking about it.
Speaker 1Black Mirror is like the European. It came out of England BBC.
Speaker 2Oh, okay, All right. So that's why my dad would like that you know Okay.
Speaker 1That had a good. It was like it was a first that came out. It was like a cult hit. It was only on Netflix, like three seasons. Each season was like two or three episodes. Okay, that was it and it was BBC.
Speaker 1It just stopped out of nowhere and put it on their streaming service. And when it became big, everyone was like running out of shit to watch and I guess they would run into that and it became they're like yo, this show's really fucking good. The black dude from Get Out Getting Out or not Getting Out From Get Out he was started out in one of the episodes of Black Mirror. Oh, wow, so Netflix had it. There was one episode that really got everyone intrigued. It's a really cool fucking premise. Basically, it's about whatever you see can get recorded. So if you have a job interview that day which is what the story mainly starts off at, like it shows like him going back to his house, traveling from another country, gets off the plane and airport security. The way that they go through security is that they put his palm down or like, and they scan his eyes and it goes through all of what he did in his vacation because it's seen through his eyes, seeing if he did anything like terroristic or has anything with him.
Speaker 2Crazy, because I was honestly thinking it's something totally different how that could be so useful, right, but it's so invasive as well. It is, it is.
Speaker 1So Black Mirror 2, people don't understand. It kind of sticks to its own universe. So whatever you see in one episode can also be blended into another one, so that technology can also be involved in that universe. You know, what.
Speaker 2I'm saying yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1So that technology is used in a lot of other episodes. That's pretty cool. So he goes home and his wife's like how'd the job interview go? And he has a party at home and his wife is throwing a party and they're all it's like five or six people and he's like he knows he didn't get the job they did. Really. Why don't you show us how it went? Imagine, that's horrible, because that's where we're getting dude Yo, that's crazy. That's where we're getting right now.
Speaker 2It's crazy good and crazy bad because, watch, it's annoying to ask your kid well, I don't have no kids, but like I've seen it like with my little brother all the time, my mom would be like John, how was your day, how was your day at school? When I don't know nothing, we learned or something, my mom, it broke my mom's head because she's like what did you guys do? You know Adam's giving a full synopsis of what he even had for lunch and what he liked. You're over here like oh good, like you know, but like it would be cool to, like you know, see what other people go through.
Speaker 1But get that where you said that's very invasive, like on that point. See, so there's no. So netflix bought it, eventually winded up buying the show because it got so big. Right now they have a show called bandersnatch. It's an interactive fucking netflix show. Choose your own adventure. Wow and there's. I have not looked into it from like as of before this came out, I think maybe before I went to prison. I'm not sure. But this came out a minute ago and people were finding secret endings in it.
Speaker 1It's about him making a video game and we were like Kevin didn't understand it. Kevin really was like what the fuck are we doing? He was like it lasted, are we doing? He was like it lasted maybe 5 or 7 minutes the first run and we were like it's just over, but it said play again and he was like what the fuck? We were both like I'm like I don't know.
Speaker 2That's a lot of film time.
Speaker 1They must have had to film so much stuff do you want to have this cereal or this cereal, and I'm like that cereal. Are you raising your hand, johnny?
Speaker 3Yeah, go ahead, john that is so nice of you, very polite, so how. We're talking about interactive shows.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3All right, bear Grylls has an interactive show. I believe it's like there's a couple. I believe it's Netflix or Amazon. It's on one of those streaming sites. It's where you can pick where he goes on his adventures, so you'll dive in the ocean.
Speaker 2Should I go across this icy river or go through this bear cave? Oh, that's kind of like Dora the Explorer.
Speaker 3Oh wait, is it on YouTube? It's Flora, like. Is it on YouTube? It's on Amazon, it's on one. I think it's on Netflix. Is it? Wait, wait?
Speaker 1wait search it oh yeah, yeah, no, I know exactly what you're talking about. My mom, yeah, my mom and dad showed it to me. It came out right after that whole thing. They were trying to make it. Yeah, it was, the Bandersnatch was the first one okay, and they tried survivor thing that's me.
Speaker 2I remember that's really cool.
Speaker 1But that's like work is not go the bandersnatch one will have you like if you're on mushrooms or like some type of oh, bro, talk about mushrooms or some type of like a psych, like psychoactive experience. All right, listen here on this channel. You're all about getting clean, like through natural ways, right? Like I am all for smoking weed, I am all for doing that what's natural.
Speaker 3I do peyote every day, See, like Johnny has his own way of living life.
Speaker 1You know what I mean.
Speaker 2Nah, but like you're talking about, how you just said, with the uh, watching that show on shrooms, my guy I watched, um, what was it? I think it was Casino on mushrooms. That's the. Was that that guy's story, where I'm pretty sure I'm talking about the right movie? It is Casino, right, or is that with?
Speaker 1Wait, Casino is All right, all right.
Speaker 2So I got to look it up right now. If I'm talking about the right movie, but it's a Martin Scorsese movie, is it Casino You're thinking?
Speaker 1Martin Scorsese movie. Is it Casino? You're thinking Martin Scorsese movie? That would probably be.
Speaker 2Casino.
Speaker 1Is it Casino or?
Speaker 2I don't know what you're talking about the Benny Hill story or something like that.
Speaker 1I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2You know what I'm talking about. I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1When it was coming in. You know how he's walking through the restaurant.
Speaker 3And he's like oh yeah, this is Two Time, Tommy.
Speaker 2I know what you're talking about. When it was coming in. You know how he's walking through the restaurant and he's like, oh yeah, this is Two Time Tommy. Yes, I know exactly, it was so cool to actually watch that movie on Trooms, because now you're seeing where Martin Scorsese was actually thinking, because now he's going back and forth.
Speaker 1See, but that's your perspective.
Speaker 2It was so cool because I'm like bro. This movie is basically a cinematic orchestra Good fellas, good fellas.
Speaker 3Yes, that's it. Thank you, johnny. Look at Johnny.
Speaker 1Johnny is killing shit today.
Speaker 2I couldn't find the movie in my head for a sec. But wow, yeah, if you're like, you know when they say, like the microdosing on the shrooms gives people perspective, you know I talked to this girl that microdosing on the shrooms gives people perspective. I talked to this girl that microdosed on the shrooms and like yo, it's actually pretty cool, it's really cool, but then like you take like an eighth too much.
The Trip
Speaker 1Oh yeah, then you can't drive, you know, but you'll never, you're not. It's not something that you really want to do every day. No, no, no, it's not something you're going to get. I couldn't.
Speaker 3It's like.
Speaker 2They're like kind of like you know how, like Catholics and Christians, they go on missions or whatever.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2It's kind of like a normal guy's mission, like, all right, let me go inside my head, but outside my head at this point in time? Yes, absolutely. Let me figure some things out, and then, once you're done with your trip, it's ice cold a trip.
Speaker 1You know what I mean.
Speaker 2You went on vacation, real quick come.
Speaker 1That's a good point. You always hear when someone does trip. They always say I went or when I you know.
Speaker 2It was never I got high. It was always when I was there or when I was yeah, where I was yeah it was like it's never.
Speaker 1it wasn't like you got high, it was like you went somewhere.
Speaker 2Bro, there's so many things. I remember one. Yeah, every single time, bro, it's like I have Did you hear that? I heard that a little bit in the background Did you hear that yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Don't know what that was.
Speaker 2Good. But so, like I remember, I'm walking back from the store to my car to go like smoke a joint with my friend, but I'm tripping on shrooms and it's the most funniest thing because, like I see a car speeding down the block.
Speaker 2And I'm like yo in a reality TV show, like it was just this is happening. Or like I have the last example, the most craziest one, where this kid fell into the trip and didn't know he was tripping. Oh my God. So this kid, ron, was in my high school. It was years after high school.
Speaker 1So he asked me he fell into the trip and didn't know he fell into the trip. I'm going to explain this Go ahead. Sorry, I keep hitting the microphone with my fucking hat.
Speaker 2It's okay, I'll let you do it one more time.
Speaker 1Johnny's got to get up and fucking hit you with the wizard wand.
Speaker 2But so he asked me he's like yo, do you ever like trip before? And I'm like, yeah, I've tripped before. So it was like you know. So I was thinking that he was asking me. So he wanted a trip but didn't want to have it my first time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I didn't know that it was his first time and he thought that I was going to like it. So we're chilling at his house and he's like all right, whatever, you don't really drive. You know. Like I told him, like I was like you don't really drive when you do shrooms. Like me, I walk around, I'll go anywhere, I have crazy adventures. But, um, so we get into his car Now I'll listen to crazy music or whatever.
Speaker 1Good, alright, so once you get past 16 or 17.
Speaker 2Oh, even the soundtrack. I used to love the soundtrack for 16. It's dope.
Speaker 1Yeah, once they fucking stopped making 2K with it like it had a good comp, we'll get there another day, Exactly Go ahead.
Speaker 2So yeah, so he's playing it, but he's doing really good, like he's really into it. He's this and that. I'm like, yeah, cool, why are you playing video games? So then Dave's like alright, I gotta go to my mom's house real quick, I'm gonna go get some food, but while I'm there, this kid, emil, is gonna come over. He owes me money, alright, cool. So now Emil comes in. I think, like you know how people talk, like oh, yeah, yeah.

I was like no, no, no, we can't look at the clock, yeah yeah, it'll, yeah, it'll mess with you.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, yeah it really will.
Speaker 2So yeah, so we finally get to his house. I get him to his house Now he texts his girlfriend. His girlfriend calls him. Now I don't really think I thought his girlfriend was a cool girl. I was like yeah, Ron's fucked.
Speaker 2I went to like I was like all right, ron, I gotta like bounce. Because now I'm starting to see I'm like I felt like I was on the first 48, like he's in a downstairs apartment with the windows at mad high. So I'm like, all right, I gotta bounce, like now you're bringing me on to some shitty ass high.
Speaker 2So I, bro, I try to save it as much as I could yeah no, if you're in that spot too, like no, let's fuck with me, that's hard so then, like yo, I went to the door, bro, he like like, like hip, like he threw his hip in the way of like between me and the door, and I was like, oh fuck, Bro, it was a grace by God David called him. I was, like yo talk to him in Hebrew, bro, his girlfriend just broke up with him and he's tripping balls.
Speaker 3Dude. That's fucked up, dude.
Speaker 2So, bro, that second, when I gave him the phone, I darted to the fucking door. I got out, bro, ron looked like a creature coming out that door. I was like Ron, get theed back in, that's another thing too.
Speaker 1Once you, you think you could go outside too, and once you go outside you're like you realize that that is not the place to be. Nah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And like bro, back in the day with the Jules they had these things called high pods. Bro, I took like four high pods. Do they still sell the Jules? I think so, but not as cool as it was Because we used to have like jewel mango and shit like that.

Speaker 2I don't know.
Speaker 1I'm from New York. That's what he asked. This is Omar's question.
Speaker 2Yes, that is his question, but that's a Jersey question because me and John are from New York, we're from New York. We get bacon. It's just ham. It's kind of like scared.
Speaker 1No, you can't say that, dude. See, they're from England, dude.
Speaker 2From.
Speaker 1New York they're from.
Speaker 2New York as well. So we're going bacon, egg and cheese. So we're going ketchup, how you doing, how you doing it's pork roll.
Speaker 1It's different dude. It's cured, Cured ham.
Speaker 3Cured ham, it's even better it.
Speaker 2When I was in school they're like, yeah, we got Canadian bacon.
Speaker 1I'm like that's just a thick ass, nice cooked piece of ham, yeah, it's a nice, it's a cut, it's a different cut, dude, okay all right, I understand.
Speaker 2I'm not. I'm really not giving the pork roll the time it deserves.
Speaker 1Pork roll tailored ham. I think are two different things too.
Speaker 2I think it's like I don't know.
Speaker 1You can't go out of Jersey or the tri-state area really, and get pork roll.
Speaker 2Yeah, I know. I've seen pork roll a lot in the Jersey supermarkets.
Speaker 1You're only going to get Taylor ham. My boy would go to Vermont. God bless his soul. Bernie McGrath Love you. He would go. He went to school in Vermont. He would come to Jersey when he came back. He purposely buys the pork roll just to bring it up to his fucking school because they didn't have it.
Speaker 2Well, how about this one? I worked at this deli. This lady used to come in and buy me bagels and she used to tell us she was like I send these to my daughter and I was like where's your daughter? My daughter lives in California. They don't have the good bagels over there.
Speaker 1Dude, I know people that do that too. The bagels over there. Dude, I know people that do that too, the bagels, and shit too, You're right.
Speaker 2They send baskets. Yeah, I'm like yo, we're sending bagels statewide over here.
Modern-Day Connections and Escaping the System
Speaker 1They send fucking baskets, dude. So, omar, thank you for fucking watching the show, dude, we appreciate it. That's pretty fucking cool. We're getting some fan mail now you know what I mean?
Speaker 2You the best, Omar Omar, my man. Yeah, next we should actually get some proper fan mail in the mail We'll give you a PO box.
Speaker 1We got the website. We got a Gmail.
Speaker 2We just got to get a proper at getting out.
Speaker 3We're going to get a MySpace up soon, yeah.
Speaker 1MySpace. What the fuck Didn't Justin Timberlake buy that shit? I don't know, I buy that shit, I don't know.
Speaker 2I remember I used to be able to do it up. Nice, I used to be able to have your wall. Myspace was awesome, yo, I had my own wall. I had my music. Yo it was dope because it was just a whole thing of you yeah.
Speaker 1MySpace was great MyMySpace was dope you could have an intro song Like your song would play when you can't restart.
Speaker 2You'd really get to know chicks too, because you their favorite music is. You know what type of chick they are.
Speaker 1My first girlfriend was the one who showed me what that was Like my first like real, real girlfriend. She's like you never heard of MySpace. She's like I can't show you that's how I saw, found you and saw you for the first time. And she's like it's so much fun because you can like it's like going through a family tree, like you start at one person Like you've started one person.
Speaker 2She's like you will start at one person and you can like find your way down, like it's who they're friends with and like who they know, and you're going to do.
Speaker 1So it's more like a community tree.
Speaker 2Let's drop the family tree, cause we were definitely both not right. Yes, yeah, yeah, not family, you should probably say family.
Speaker 1Where, where, where am I? I'm summarizing here, but she kind of said something to me too that I don't think we often think about a lot either. Is that when we're on dating websites and shit, you know that girls are definitely 100,000% looking us up every time that we talk to us.
Speaker 3I get no matches, so I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1But you probably don't use your real name. I do, do you? Okay, you don't have anything crazy on your record anyway, so they probably can't find you. That's another reason, probably.
Speaker 2I never really thought into that. That's pretty deep it's very deep. The thing is, though, I have some girls here and there, but I've never really pulled girls from like the internet.
Speaker 1I never have. I only won.
Speaker 2Oh, I don't like talking to people in real life, because they see how crazy I am, you know, yeah. And then they get to choose like do I want to feel with this person and first time meeting you, but I feel like I've known you forever? Yeah, that's how it was with me and you, I'm like, you know, I try, I try, you know, I think it's the accent. Try to keep things casual, you know comfortable. You know I'm not trying to have no stagnant air.
Speaker 1I think it's the accent, probably the accent. Yeah, a little bit, I think it is.
Speaker 2It's friendly it's nice accent. They're like he's a city slicker. Watch out for this guy.
Speaker 1I can see it, you know.
Speaker 2And I'm like, hey, how you doing? I'm just trying to, like you know, get a job, and you know they're like, nah, nah, we're good.
Speaker 1I can see it.
Speaker 2You know, the PA people don't really like me.
Speaker 1I can see it, but I like them. They got good. They got good little. I haven't been to PA. I think the last time I've been to PA was I got paid $500 to drive somebody up there to run away from drug court.
Speaker 2You worked to PA. He didn't even just go to PA.
Speaker 1Yeah, they wanted to run their ass away from drug court. I think I'm not sure. Allegedly, allegedly, allegedly they were just running away. I think they're still fucking out there too. God bless them. Holy shit, I don't know how he made it that long. The thing is dude. People think that after five years that if you come back and you didn't get caught, they think that it just goes away Does it ever go away and the PO's love it because they know that you think that and they're waiting for you right at the airport when you come back wherever the fuck you are?
Speaker 2Yeah, because it's fucking so much longer Because it gets flagged in this system, right? Does it flag? Yes?
Speaker 1And it's so much longer now. Wow, it's like 12 years.
Speaker 2So if you leave, never come back? Yeah, it's like 12 to 20 years, just never come back If you're going to on a car or a donkey or something, you know nothing, that has like meh, it's municipal transit that they could clock you.
Speaker 1Bro, I'm going to tell you so many times on drug court before they arrested me, so I feel bad.
Speaker 2I'm giving tips on this, but it's like getting out of the system.
Speaker 1You know Get out of the system, dude, because once you're in, you'll never get the fuck out.
Speaker 2Oh my God, once you pay to play and then, like you know, it fucked me up.
Speaker 1Oh my God, it really fucked me up.
Speaker 2Sometimes I walk around that I don't know if I have a warrant or not, but then I'm like, all right, well, I'm not doing anything crazy to worry about that. But what if the God chance? Because I had that, I had my sugar dropped and, mind you, I forgot my milk. I forgot milk. I went to the deli. Mind you, I wasn't in a great neighborhood, I was in Stapleton. Stapleton what Staten Island? It's where the Wu-Tang's from Stapleton. Yeah. Wu-tang's from there, the Stapleton Center? Yeah, it's not Stapleton Projects.
Speaker 3Harlem Projects.
Speaker 2So yeah, so I went to this deli called the Green Apple Deli. Fuck, no, at that day I did that day, that day, 100%.
Speaker 1It matters what you're wearing, what?
Speaker 2time it is. It was like 12 o'clock at night. I'm in front of the Green Apple Deli. My sugar's dropping.
Speaker 1I don't know Green Apple Deli. Who runs the Green Apple Deli? You know what I'm asking who runs as a green out of the the people, the Indians.
Speaker 2No the Yemenis.
Speaker 1Yemen. What is the fuck?
Speaker 2There's a Yemeni, yeah yeah, yeah, most delis are ran by people from Yemen. I've been fucking up the whole time. It's Yemenis. Is there again Indians? No, well, you got that out here in Jersey. You got a lot of, like you know, all the shawley, shawley, punjabi type fellas out here didn't even know what that was.
Speaker 1Is that real?
Speaker 2it was shawley shawley, I just made that up. That sounds good.
Car Talk and Safety Features
Speaker 1We can add that to the dictionary that could be a slang, no one would fucking know. Be like shawley, shawley, hobby, hobby and then fucking walk away. They think you just blessed them they just made it sound Like dude.
Speaker 2A shawali shawali. Yeah, I think if you said that to any like creator or like any of these young people, they're like oh, the man just said some nice stuff to us. Oh my God, he spoke, he spoke. It's like you know, you ever go to like somewhere and you have like the monks from Tibet trying to give you bracelets and stuff, but then they'll give it to you and they'll ask for I got to pay for my blessings, come on.
Speaker 1Yo, I got a blessing a couple weeks ago that I forgot to talk about, and I wanted to say to end this episode on too, because this is a great note to end on for everybody is to take at least four to five seconds and think about your actions before you do it. Think about what you're going to do.
Speaker 2Don't just respond. My dad used to say something. Say make sure the brain is engaged when the mouth is moving.
Speaker 1Ooh Right Pops, Right Pops with the.
Speaker 2He used to hit me with that and I'm like oh wow, that's actually some good raw, you know.
Speaker 1I like that Pops with the good swivel swaddle. But yeah, so I always wanted to say like always think, because I was on the way to my friend's house. This was a couple weeks ago. I'm in my Mercedes, Nice car on the outside, Inside's got some problems.
Speaker 2But I always get Minor interior issues, always get compliments on the car.
Speaker 1It's like I can't throw it away. It's a beautiful color, bro Bro. Every time I drive that car I get a compliment.
Speaker 2Do you get the thumbs up?
Speaker 1from the guys with the mustaches. Like the car guys, I get stopped after I'm out of the car or out of the light, people will literally just stop Yo that car. Sick car dude it is an AMG though. And it's not even that, it's just so old. I know it's a 90. It's a 99.
Speaker 2I knew a lady. This lady was a big business lady. I had apartments when I was growing up. This lady, she was hot, but she had that dope car. That car was dope. I just remember her driving that car.
Speaker 1It's like when cars there's a certain time. I think it's like 98,.
Speaker 299 is when they made that transition from older looking, squarey boxy, to modern and rounder edges, yeah, but they kind of like they like threw it at the wall in the early 2000s. They're like let's go futuristic, you know, and things look crazy cool, though that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1Yeah, I know Things look crazy cool back in there, so they tried more like weird shit. Everything looks the same now. Yeah, everything looks the fucking same.
Speaker 2Because now everything is more for like the usefulness and the purposeful. Like you know, you're not going to drive a boxy car that's gonna uh make you lose gas because of, like the wind you know that's how they do it like the drag. So, like you see most of these cars now, they have like this orb type shape. You know, like, like, look new mercedes, like spaceships basically yeah, absolutely, and they all look the fucking same.
Speaker 1They're all trying to like, replicate like a. Now it's all trying to fucking it's all the same color and it's but there's nothing really different, like I want to see different that's why I get the compliments a lot. I think that's why it is because everyone's so used to seeing these newer cars, electric cars, these like and like now it's nice to see an old car, like you know.
Speaker 2When you see like a mustang fox spot or something like that, you're like, oh, that looks nice yeah like you appreciate it exactly, it's a it, I think in like a couple of more years. It's, it's gonna be a fucking you could put a classic car you could put. You could put that on your license plate. I think it'll bring your.
Speaker 1I don't have to bring my insurance down and I don't have to go for fucking inspections. Yeah, because it's over a certain amount how does that? Isn't that vice versa? I know, I know it's old as hell, but uh, you're good on inspections kid, you got it your car's old as shit, probably my breakdown but it's a classic, so now you don't have to come here anymore. The fuck it makes, do you?
Speaker 2do that with people. Imagine, imagine you did that with people.
Speaker 1Okay, you're a classic now, so you don't have to come to the doctor yeah, thanks very much, but, like uh, I think you should check it out, because there's all my lights are on. It makes some weird fucking noises when I'm paddling, you know what I mean, I think, it's giving out some weird smells and fucking the environment. My car may be the cause for world pollution. Like so you're not checking my car, you? You could be the reason we're dying. He's like we're on to a lot of cars.
Speaker 2Now my car sounds like a lawnmower Like damn.
Speaker 1You know you could be the reason we're fucking dying, but I wanted to say so. I was driving and I my brakes because I just cleaned the whole car at this time. They were rotors, were, I guess, were shiny.
Speaker 2Yeah, they weren't gripping, they weren't gripping.
Speaker 1They weren't gripping to the pad make it grippy. And I tapped it light Cause I wasn't going that fast, slow it down. It was only 10, like seven, and the car skipped and it hit the back of another car. Oh, and my fucking crazy drug addict, mental, last patient, really after, oh well, four years, november 1st, no, five years, november 1st.
Speaker 3Well, November 1st.
Speaker 1November 1st 2000,. November 1st what you guys are fucking with me now I'm thinking 1999. Like what the fuck?
Speaker 2Four years from now is 2020.
Speaker 1November 1st 2019 is my clean date.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1So, whatever, how long that would be four years, I think that is so that would be my even. After all that time, I nicked the back of this car and in my head, instead of like just automatically saying, pull over and deal with it.
Speaker 3You drove away.
Speaker 1No, I was going to. Thank God, I didn't. I wanted to. First thing in my head was like yo bounce on it because he didn't know like I could tell that the car was like did someone hit me because it was so light? Yeah, I looked at it. There was nothing there and I'm like this is gonna fuck up my whole day if he calls the cops.
Speaker 1I had nothing on me, I had nothing to be afraid of, but it's just a matter of fact, I have to to deal with it, and if this guy's an asshole it could be a whole situation right. And I said fuck it, it's my mistake. You know what I mean. I'll explain to the guy. I got out of my car, I apologized so much and he's like look at his car and he's like dude, this is a work car.
Speaker 2I was like you're sure there's nothing wrong.
Speaker 1He's like no dude, I'm fine. You know what other cars are like Tanks Nissan Muranos and. Nissan like Robes.
Speaker 3No, it's any newer, any older cars are fucking so much better because they have a metal frame and they're not built with this fucking cheap-ass fiberglass that bends as soon as you touch it.
Speaker 2Well, you know, I always like my tip, my trick, that I know if it's a car is kind of like a well-built car the door trick. You know about the door trick. No, you ever slam a door, Not slam it, but like shut the door.
Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 2And it just sounds like a proper door. Yeah, you ever shut a door to a cheap whack car and it sounds so tinny and empty.
Speaker 1Yeah, but that's exactly because they use a material so that it can take. It takes less of a shock like when it hits. When something hits it, it's meant to just that's why they make it out of that material. It's not made out of metal anymore because the metal. Actually, if you're in a high speed accident, it's actually more dangerous for you.
Speaker 2Yes, you could be dying immediately. Yo do you ever hear about like yo some of these fast cars have, like this crazy cool safety feature where they drop the engine. The engine drops.
Speaker 1Yeah, I saw yesterday one where the windshield goes up. Why, what does that do?
Speaker 2I don't know, maybe stop the windshield Before the car hits you. Well, my head went through the windshield. Yeah, no, but then I would have got pulled back by my seatbelt.
Speaker 1Shouldn't do like wait. But the windshield going up, I don't know it still doesn't make a difference.
Speaker 2That doesn't sound like a lot of sense.
Speaker 1But I just want to say the guy was so fucking cool. He said don't worry about it. He shook my hand and said have a good day, dude. I was about to cause a car chase. Maybe a police chase I could have got fucking absconding.
Speaker 2I could have gotten so many charges because you nearly got so many charges by just getting in your head and getting all nervous, but now you just pulled your pants up, act like a man and talk to the guy exactly 100%. He said you know my fault.
Speaker 1And he said it's all good, my car's a beater his car was actually really nice but it was a work car but there was nothing on it. It didn't do anything to it like thank god, and he was just so cool cause he could've been a dick and gotten money. Yo, for real.
Gratitude and Good Deeds
Speaker 2He could've gotten money.
Speaker 1You could've said my back, my neck, my hips and he could've just been like the car, something I'm into the car and gotten whatever replaced and gotten money and he was like dude I don't care, don't worry about it I'm good I'm like yo, thank you so much and I was just want to tell everybody that's because you're doing the right thing, yes, you're saved.
Speaker 1I saved a fucking huge ordeal with a handshake by just fucking stopping and thinking and saying you know what? I should fucking really handle the situation the right way One time. You know what I mean. One time, just think before you do things. Not everyone's allowed to get you. So, whoever that guy was, if he ever watches this, thank you very much. That really fucking made my day.
Speaker 2He's like I ended up getting a dope breakfast after that. Yeah, it made my day dude. Everything else was great after that.
Speaker 1I didn't miss my doctor's appointment, it was just thank you, so I appreciate it. Thank you guys for watching Omar.
