Something New | This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von #654

My God, I got to get a. haircut before a hunter shoots me. This. is a lot. Um, I want to say uh. just I want to say just a message just. to thank everybody um for showing up who. was able to show up and and check out. Bus Boys. >> [snorts]. >> uh. in the movie theaters this weekend. Um, it means a lot, you know, uh we had. just so many people that showed up and. did something on social media or showed. some love. Um, there was a guy who went bought he he.

got to the theater he was the only. person there and so he sat in there with. his shirt off and watched it. Uh which. is pretty cool. Um, my friend Richie. he's like, "Dude, I hadn't been to a. movie in 8 years." and he went over. there uh by himself and watched and and. I know that was a lot of people who um I. got messages from my friend Betsy um my. teachers from growing up um. just so many people family. uh. and you guys. um who are my family also. And uh.

and yeah, just the support. I just felt. supported and it was just it was. it felt a little spooky to try and do it. like to do something you hadn't done. like and have everybody see it like the. like, you know, like I'm going to be a. Olympic diver or whatever and then. everybody shows up for your first dive. kind of So um anyway, that might. be a bad correlation but um. but yeah, just thank you so much and uh. I appreciate you. and um.

and uh. and I appreciate that your support and I. hope that in our lifetime um. that I can return the favor. Thank you. And if you haven't gotten to see it. uh busboysmovie.com it's expanding to. more theaters I believe and so you can. check it out there and if not it'll be. somewhere where you can watch it online. after that and um yeah, thank you so. much. Also, Lexington, Kentucky, the home of Paul Revere baby. I'm coming.

back for three shows. One on Friday, May. 1st and then two shows on Saturday, May. 2nd. Um, that's the return of the rat tour. and I think that's the end. That'll be. the end of it. Um, I hope to see you. there. You can get tickets only at. theovon.com/tour. Gang gang baby. Buzz buzz baby. It's. the spring time, you know, I I talk. about spring time a lot.

You know, cuz it's a time kind of for. something new. Um, and the bees you see them bees out. there. And them bees baby them things they. you know, I saw a bee the other day cuz. they're out there pollinating. And they're pollinating bro and that's. when they're basically. uh. you know what I'm saying they out there. You know, they're listening to Cardi B. They're doing they're out there. They're. out there. They're on spring break baby.

when they're pollinating. They're on spring break they're out. there. I saw one bee fly right out of. one flower and right just right into. another didn't even wash his hands after. being in the first one. I said that's. that's a lot for me. You know, just and him he just went one. right into the next one. Just cheating. on a tulip with a daffodil. He didn't. even. you know, and I could see he kind of stopped on. the edge of the tulip he's like, "Yeah, I'mma call you. I'mma holler at you.".

You know, "I'mma get at you. I got to go. I got to go to work or something." then. he kind of buzz one way and then skrt. [gasps]. bam. and he was laid up with a couple. daffodils over there boy. Cuz bees they don't you know, they just. they just trying to get their rocks off. out there. That's the that's that's. that's that's the truth. But we need them. We need bees out there. You know, I. ain't trying to be a snitch but I saw a. bee and a wasp running a little two-man.

over there. with a. with a couple bougainvilleas. You know, and them them villas was. booging homie. I mean. shorty had some had some pedals on her. You know what I'm saying gang. I'm. upstairs. But yeah, this the spring time man. you know, I I like the spring time. I like it because it just gives me. it gives me a reminder that there's. something new can happen.

You know, that there's the the that. there's there's a. there's a there's possibility. There's. you know, just that something new can. happen. And I really like that. I like the. spring time. And that's how I feel about it. And we went over to Supercross. Now I. don't know if you've ever been to. Supercross. You know, cuz there's you know, we all. know there's the cross and that's where. where Jesus died on and that's that's. the most popular one but you know, and a.

a little the well a decent ways down. from that but still. >> [snorts]. >> out there is Supercross. And that you know, I didn't know I. didn't know anything about Supercross. I. don't know if you know anything about it. but if you don't if you don't know. anything about it. then. then then that's how I am. That's how I. then you're then we're the same because. I didn't know anything about it bro. But those bikes man I walked into I went. to Nissan Stadium. I went to Nissan.

Stadium. and Nissan Stadium I thought you go in. there it's just a bunch of Nissans. trying to you know, looking for a place. to park or a bunch of Asian dudes with a. bunch of tricked out Nissans in there. You know, cuz Nissan is Asian. People don't. realize that. People think it's just. just a word that doesn't even mean. anything or. but it's Nissan. Yeah, that's Asian bro. And so I thought it was going to be like.

that but um. but the bikes man the bikes are just. And then they had one little gay bike. that kind of ped by he'd be like. The engine it it's like. you'd hear like. and then a little gay bike would be. like, "Who wants to come over to my place?" I. would be like, "Damn that bike.

they got that thing tuned. They got that. thing tuned hot. That thing's coming in. hot boy.". He just wants mechanics to come over and. help it. That bike was just like, "Um. bro I. ooh my engine's broken.". That's a trap baby. Bees in a trap that thing's a. So they got that they kind of bait that. that that bike gets put in cuz you got. the other bikes just. one guy broke.

broke his whole. neck leg everything. He broke everything. he had. He had he'd already broke I. think his neck or something they taken. part of his leg he said and put it in. his neck. And I'm like, "Damn that out here. leg necking.". And then I think he cracked that. on one of the turns man. It was but it's. intense out there. Who wants to talk or you know, who wants. to talk behind that gas tank? You know,

just but anyway, a lot of different engines out there. uh. but it was fascinating. And you know, I. and and the bikes the bikes that they. use the motorbikes they're they're. bitching man. Them bikes are bitching. And I didn't think I would like a dirt. bike. Cuz first of all it's got dirt on it. You know what I'm saying if somebody try. to get get you involved with selling you.

another item. and it say you want this dirt shirt or. whatever you want this uh. You know what I'm saying you want these. dirt tits. You going to say. nah man. Miss me with that. But a dirt bike it just. I don't know. It broke the mold I'll say that. Because if you look at the. uh. the food you know, the.

uh. what's it called when like a lion eats a. dolphin or whatever the um. the food chain. When you look at the. food chain of transportation you don't. think about a dirt bike. Most of when you think of transportation. you go you start at the top you think. fighter jet, plane, tank um. truck, car, skateboard.

piggyback. I guess that's a motor transportation. kind of. Um, yeah, it won't get you far you know, but. you'll be. you'll be better off than the guy you. riding on when you pull up you know, um. then it goes dirt bike, hitchhiking. and just. wishing you were somewhere else. And that's the escalons of. transportation right there. But one thing I also loved about. Supercross is they they brought in.

26. million pounds of dirt for. the event. So when they made all the um. triangles that's what it is. When they. made all those dirt triangles. they had 26 million pounds of dirt. So that's just incredible. And then I. said to the guy, "Well, what do y'all do. afterwards?" He like, "Well, we store it. at different places around town." I. said, "Damn bro, that's crazy.". They got that probably stored. everywhere.

I say, "Look, rent out you you could. rent out two corners of my of my of my. house.". I rent out two corners over there. Stack. a little bit of dirt in them for. $18, bro, $30, $40. That's what I'm living like. >> [snorts]. >> Cuz I'm saying if they got 26 million. pounds of that to get to to hide. away. The guy said, "Yeah, we just we store it. around town and we come back and get it.

next year." I'm like, "Damn, y'all. coming back?". If y'all coming back to get that. I'll charge you $61. I'll charge you. $40 a month. to keep that You keep 8 lb of that. and I got a couple empty cupboards. in the kitchen. Ain't nothing in them. One of them has a air fryer in. it. I will fill that up. I'll keep I'll I'll keep. 10 square inches of that damn dirt warm. for you. I'll get you I'll keep some of. that warm for I'll air fry that.

And we'll get you back some quality. dirt, bro. And that's going to now be $50 a month. But that's the kind of business we need. is it say if you if you come to my. house, you say, "Look, hey, bro, hold a little bit of this dirt for me, bro.". I got you, gang. That's who I am. But yeah, I had a nice time over there, man. And then uh. >> [sighs]. >> And and just to go do something.

different, do something new. I'd never. been. I just got invited. I went over. I got to meet some of the some of the. drivers. Um. Seth, there's a guy named Seth, a dude. named Jet I met. Uh Eli, he he he kept winning. And uh Mr. Stewart, he was in there, the. boss, young boss. Um but yeah, these dudes, bro, I it's. just like I think the thing that was the. most neat to me about it was that it. felt like you were just a kid. Everybody. it felt like there's this kid thing of.

wanting to like just ride your bike, you know? Um. And that was pretty magical in there. And yeah, people are having a good time. I think it's a great thing to take your. your family to. I think you. I think you could go watch it and. uh I don't work for them or anything. I. just I went and had a nice time. Uh. separately from that, what did I do? I. went down and saw my stepdad and uh. I got to take him out for his birthday.

And we went over there uh. down where I'm from. Went to uh Mandeville Seafood over. there. I think they got some of the best. seafood uh. >> [snorts]. >> on the North Shore. I think they they. really get it done. I like they got a. fried shrimp po'boy. That be ooh. That be uh. >> [snorts]. >> You you hey. And I walked in, bro. I could hear that. fryer. The fryer knew I was coming. You. could hear the fryer that deep fryer rub. his hands together in the back of that. beer.

He knew I'd walked in cuz I get it. I would boy, I will take care of some. fried shrimp. So, if you have a fried shrimp problem. in your area, hit my line, twin. But so that was nice. And my stepdad and. I sat over there. He's not my real. stepdad, but he kind of just been a big. influence in my life. I lived with their. family for a long time. And uh blessings. to him. Um. What else is going on?

Oh, I went to the. farmers market. And that was fun. And I like that farmers market. I like. to see people making things. And then. you get to learn about the people that. are doing it. And it just feels like so. much more of like a community. than like a Amazon or something like. that. Um. Yeah. The comparison of getting something. through Amazon and going to a farmer. it's not even a comparison.

You know, just the energy you get from. seeing people and seeing them with their. families, you know, especially a lot of. farmers markets they start up around. springtime. And I know everybody can't. afford a farmers market. I know some of. the pricing is different and uh. and some people they don't have farmers. markets by them. But if you some people never even been. to one. But. yeah, I just enjoyed it. Because also it. gives me a different respect for the.

food. You know, if I buy something that I've. learned about. and that I know where it's come from, I. think I'm a. I think I engage with it differently. You know, like. uh. I don't know. It's not. Sometimes in my life food has just been. kind of. I don't know. Just I've just absorbed it. or ate or whatever. Just. kind of nonchalantly. I don't know the.

customer. I don't know where this. stuff's from. I don't know, you know, what the what it is, what it's made. I. don't know anything about it. So, what. do I care? But then yeah, I think this was. interesting just to get some stuff. I. got some milk over there. And they'll milk anything in that. dog. I ain't going to lie. Things you never even they got damn moon. milk in that I'm like, "Damn.". Somebody got up there and I squeeze the. the biggest tit in the world, you feel. me? >> [snorts]. >> Got. Somebody was up there just pushing.

making that crescent drip, homie. Um. >> [clears throat]. >> But they they got everything in there. Grass milk, cat milk, uh. They was the somebody had uh. just was just they had two dudes just. milking each other, a couple gay dudes. over there, bro. And I didn't say. nothing. I didn't have any, you know? But I you know, and they didn't even. Yeah, but I ain't saying nothing. But. but I ain't saying nothing. And.

[clears throat] that's what it was. Anyway, >> [gasps]. >> what else? Um. >> [clears throat]. >> But yeah, the fact they moved all that. dirty in it was just kind of fascinating. to me. And just to learn something new, to do something new. It makes me feel more alive, kind of. Cuz sometimes I get pretty set in my. ways. Um we're going to go to some calls and. stuff. Uh. >> [snorts]. >> What else? Um what do we got in the. news, Trevor? Anything that's uh you. noticed? Did you see this Pope Leo and. Trump beef?

Pope Leo and Trump? Oh, yeah. I mean, this is unbelievable. The uh. where he's like the Pope is weak on. crime, that one? Yeah. Well, after Trump's tweet on Easter, you know, just tweeting about the. annihilation of people. Bring up the. tweet so so I can be clear on what it. is. If you see that Easter tweet. It it's. it's cra And this was on Truth Social. Um. "Tuesday will be power plant day and. bridge day all wrapped up in one in.

Iran. There will be nothing like it. Open the straight, you crazy. bastards, or you'll be living in hell. Just watch. Praise be to Allah. President Trump.". I mean, that's just on Easter that's. unbelievable. You know, when people are hoping for. something new. Literally on the day when. people are hoping. and are believing with their hearts as. much as they can. and are celebrating something new, a. rebirth, a resurrection, a possibility. Um.

To write that is it's diabolical. It's. insane. Um. And I think my fear is that after they. after. uh. you know, Israel just moved from Gaza to. now it's Lebanon and it's it and it's. Iran. They're on a time clock and I. don't know why they're on a time clock, but it's they've pressed the fast. forward button. on control at any cost. And I I don't want to get too deep into.

it because I don't want to I don't want. to I don't want to feel I don't want to. you know, I want to I want to stay in a. place of possibility for myself. Um but. I do fear that that that that my I think. my biggest fear is that that stuff could. come here. You know, with the technology that. they're using to take on a lot of these. crimes with the technology that that. that they used uh to murder. I mean, it it's. in Gaza. It's just like when in these. places in the Middle East. With the.

technology they're using, they can if. they can instill that here, then we will. be living under. the watchful eye of like drones that. could. take you out if you don't if they don't. like something you write on. line. And that's scary. But when you're up against like things. that seem this bizarre and insane, other things start to seem possible. And.

um. And it's not And what American is this. helping? Besides the war. the industrial war complex. What a What. American What hard work What guy who's. trying to take care of uh. of his family or a single mother who's a. nurse who's going to work and has to get. home and get to her kids ball game and. and has to be both parents. What. What farmer is this helping? What. regular person is this helping?

I I just don't know. I don't understand. So, yeah. That's what that's what. That's what our president's up to and. it's baffling. And it's sick and it feels like he's. just been compromised. by Israel, by this this dark government. over there. And um. I don't. It's dark. It's dark. What can we talk about? Yeah, it's dark.

over there. It's dark I just don't I don't. know. Where do we get some leaders? Yeah, where do we get some leaders and. how do we. I don't know. I guess we start just by leading. ourselves, huh? All right, let's get into a little bit. of news here. What do we got, guys? So, I don't know if you saw this, but. Sweden has built vending machines for.

crows. Oh, wait. I I did see this. I I think I. shared this a couple of months ago maybe. on Tik Tok. Uh. Yes, Sweden built a smart machine. where crows trade trash for food. turning these clever birds into city. cleaners. Corvids, the bird family that. includes crows and ravens are known for. remarkable intelligence including tool. use, memory, and problem-solving skills. In controlled experiments, crows learn.

to drop cigarette filters into a. specifically designed device. and then that device dispensed food. That's what we need, bro. That's the kind of thing we need. You. teach a crow, hey, go pick up this. trash, put it in here, and then you get. a little. uh. little Mac Nugget or something. Something crows eat, a little bird. omelet or something. You know, you get something like that. And that's the kind of things we need. And that's the kind of things I've been. saying and praying for.

You [snorts] know, things that actually. make society better. Inventions that. make society better. Rubber cars, I said. that forever ago. Cuz you'll see a car accident, the only. thing that survived it was the damn. tires. Well, make the whole thing. rubber. You could hit whoever the hell. you want, dude. You could hit your damn wife when she's. leaving the house if you want. If she's. in her rubber car as well, just give her. a little bump, let her know let her know. you got a little something for her when. she gets back to the house, you feel me?

Just give her a little bit of love tap. But yeah, if everybody's in a rubber. car, you could damn you could get real. on the way to work. You know, or what about pants? I've. always thought this would be a good. invention. Pants that walk for you. I'm talking about um. electronic pants. And them they'll they'll go. So, you get in them. and then you just tell you navigate on. your phone, yeah. Take me to 13th Avenue or whatever.

And then you you just walk. You could. that way you can relax kind of. Cuz your pants are going to know when to. stop and when to go. You know what I'm saying? You don't have. to use all your muscles cuz your muscles. can be calmer because the pants are. going to get you there. You can just. relax, let your pants take you for a. walk. You know, and if you want to jog, turn. them up if you're running late. Cut them loose, boy. They ain't got no governor on these. jeans, baby girl.

Cut them loose. Or what about this? This was an. invention that I thought of. What if. they had earrings? You buy your wife these earrings and. they they they whisper naughty stuff in. her ear while she's at work. So, then when she comes back to the. house, you you know what I'm saying? The. ambiance has already been done. You know? She's at work, she's in the office or. whatever and you you know, you you tell you hit her up, you send. her a little message, you know?

Wish I was there right now. I'll bend. you over that little uh. paper shredder or whatever. I want to hide in the recycling bin and. lick your body or whatever. You could. send little like that and then the. earrings whisper it to her. Oh, I want to I want to. I want to lick your body in the. recycling bin. Imagine that. So, we've been needing positive stuff. I. like the way they're getting birds. involved in it. Let nature work.

Cuz a lot of birds have been out of. work. Them have been out of. work. They used to be spies. Remember. those, Trev? Yeah, the birds aren't real initiative. They're drones. >> Pigeons, them was working. Uh storks used to bring babies. Them. was at it. Who else? Uh. the Raven Edgar Allan Poe, he was. putting them to work and now. they got crows popping off doing. recycling. So, yeah, I'm glad to see this. I'm glad.

to see animalia back hustling, man. Praise God. I love that, dude. I love that. So, yeah. So, praise God, man. I love seeing. this. I love seeing birds get active, boy. Get nature involved. What if they had a little squirrel and. his job was just to um. come. use his tail to. buff your car? How great would that be? Somebody trains. 30, 40 squirrels over there. You pull up, you stop, they clean it and.

then they they got 40 squirrels waxing. that with their tails, bro. Come. on, let's go. This is the future we want, not doing. genocides. This is the we need. Praise God, brother. If somebody's sending you that you up. and it's 2:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m., 38:00. a.m., it don't matter. They hitting you. up like that, then you know they trying. to keep it popping.

I'm. moving out there from Bethlehem. and uh it's like 5:00 in the morning. I got some questions about the sobriety. thing. So, I'm a I'm a professional. snowboarder. I work with a lot of kids. and. I also work with a lot of other athletes. and. I just wonder how. how you maintain a positive attitude.

and stay social. in these atmospheres when becoming. freshly sober. I don't know. I. I just feel dull and. a little less enthusiastic as. I might have been before. I don't know. A little less enthusiastic than I might. have been before. Thank you so much for your call, brother. I appreciate that. Um. congratulations on 331 days. Let's go. Dude, that's so great. That's a long time. How do you keep it. going? I mean And look, you talked about.

um. you know, newly sober and you're not new. I mean you are I mean I get Look, I've. been newly sober so many times. Um. Let's call him up. Can we? Yep. Hello? Hey, Alex. Yeah. Hey, what's up, man? It's Theo. Oh, what's up, Theo? Not much, bro. I. was just checking in. I just I I I got. your voicemail, dude. I just want to say. congratulations, man. Do you still have. your sober time? Yeah. Yeah, I did, man.

>> I'm so hyped. How many days you got. right now? >> Theo Von, are you for real? Yeah, man. I. just got your voicemail, dude. No way. That's crazy. I was driving to. LA Yeah, that's what you said. >> "Fuck it. I'm going to call the hotline. and say. >> Oh my guy. Bro, BLM, homie. That's what the is. up. Hell yeah, bro. Um. Dude, that's great, bro. How are you. feeling?

I feel good. Uh every day is a new day. So, you know, it comes with some battles, but I feel great today. Nice, dude. I. know, isn't it crazy how some days. you'll feel great and then that other. day comes and you're like, "God, I just. want to pull my legs off and just hide. them in somebody's ass, bro.". Yeah, something like that. Sounds about right. Or you know what I'm. saying? Or just you have days where. you're like, "How could it How could it. be so different than it was yesterday?". That's how I feel sometimes. >> Right. Right. Um. >> Yeah. What What's the setup like there?

Do you Do you feel like nervous about. being out there? Like what was the. reason you you were heading out to LA? Um I actually moved in here with my. girlfriend. Um. I wasn't really nervous to move out. here. I'm kind of used to like being out in. big crowds and but. I think it's just different now that I. don't have substances to do anything, you know? And like being in LA, like the only. things to do I really like at night. unless you do like. I don't know. Like what do you do during. the day? Yeah, you can hide from to hide from. traffic. That's what I did.

Yeah, the traffic sucks. Bro, that's. real I would hide from traffic, bro. What else did I like to do? Oh, I did. like to go to the beach. I like to go. uh. I mean there's there's a ton of stuff, but I'm not probably not the best person. to ask. I would kind of isolate a little. bit or I would also I worked a lot. during the day and I would try to hit. like meetings in the evening or. something. Um Yeah. So, but at least you. got your girl there, so that's exciting. So, you got one person there that's that. you can connect with. Yeah, no, it's super dope. And I have.

some friends that are out here, too. So, it's like it's not the worst case. scenario, you know? >> Yeah. So, it's not. It's definitely. cool. I'm just trying to figure out what. it is throughout the day just in general. to do. Like not doesn't even matter like. if I'm in LA or not. You got a job? You. got a job? I do, yeah. I manage an athlete and I'm. a professional snowboarder as well. >> Oh, that's right. You mentioned that you. snowboard, do you? My bad. Um okay, good. >> No, it's all good. Uh. Yeah, dude. I think if you're brave. enough to try something new like that. and get out there, you're going to. you'll figure that stuff out, dude. But.

I think um. Yeah, I think like I mean for me I just. noticed the more I can take care of. myself, the more I can be involved in. other people's lives like in a. uh. at least show up in other people's. lives, you know? And And then sometimes. it's for better and sometimes it's not. Sometimes I don't do the best, but at. least I can show up, you know? So, if. I'm taking care of myself. Yeah. I mean that's how I feel, too. Yeah, if I just do the things I need to. do and stay off. all the bad Yeah. I kind of become.

a better person and being a good person. and going to do things and being around. other people feels a lot better. You. know? I don't know. I feel like like. less of a scumbag. I don't know. I'm. trying to get all my thoughts out. I'm. honestly still mind-blown that you. called. >> Oh, dude. No worries. No, I think like All right, let me. think. I am, too, bro. I think my. energy's been weird today. I just like. Some days I'm just like uh. I feel like kind of Um Yeah. Dude, I think though but I will I will. say this. Los Angeles has one of the. best uh sober communities in the whole.

world, bro, out there. There's so many. great meetings where you hear You hear. some freaking amazing speakers and. out there. I mean people that. people that were eating their own. fingers and and like. Dude, guys that were like some dude cut. his thumb off and filled it up with dope. and put it in his own ass. What are just. people that are wilding, you know? People that are really looking for God. the wrong the long way and taking the. long way to the Lord. Yeah. [laughter]. There's definitely a lot of those war. stories. I feel like when you're in LA. and you like look around you can.

obviously tell that there's a strong. homeless community, which means there's. definitely a strong sober community. Yeah, cuz those communities cuz I mean I. kind of makes sense, no? Yeah. Oh, bro, because those communities it's a thin. line between those two communities a lot. of times, bro. Yeah, for sure. >> Like a lot of us are very we've been. close to that edge of just walking off. into the oblivion. Dude, how about it? How about it? I've. been battling this for so long. I. mean, I can't believe I've gotten this. far. >> Amen. This is far as you This is long as. you've had, huh?

Yeah, way past the longest I've ever. had. >> And what do you think's been the secret? >> I only had it a couple months. But hell yeah, dude. And what And what. Sorry, I said it was there, but yeah. What do What do you What do you think's. been like honestly when you think about. it and you're honest to yourself, what. do you think's been the most helpful. thing to you? Um. Or what would you do differently? Uh what did I do differently? I don't. You know what, dude? I I did have a. pretty scary heart situation that. happened to me last year where.

I've had like two near-death experiences. with a heart condition I didn't even. know I really had. And I had to get two. heart surgeries. And I think that kind. of opened up my mind a little bit to it. Mhm. >> And then but even then after I was done. with the heart surgeries and my heart. was kind of like back to normal per se. cuz it was a pretty simple fix. I was drinking so much and but I wasn't. drugging as much. And my girlfriend was. like kind of telling me she's like, "Hey, like do you like realize how much. you drink?" And then I just took a step. back and realized. And I think that's. when it all finally came to me that like.

I've actually never stopped doing. something. You know, I was always doing. something. Yeah. >> Other than the time when I you know, I. was I was OD'ing when I was a bit. younger in my lower 20s and I had no. choice but to go to meetings and try and. stay clean cuz my brother was also. getting clean at the time. Oh, yeah. >> whole other thing. Yeah, the story goes. on forever, man. You know how it is, but. Yeah, and then sometimes we get tired of. writing that story, dude. That's what I. start to notice for myself, man. You know? I get tired of writing that.

old story cuz it's like, "Man, I've. written this. you know? Like just I've written it a lot, you. know? And so, I want to change it. But. um Cool, man.

You're Yeah, you were doing enough, dude. You can't be uh. doing snow and riding on it. You know. what I'm saying? Like you can't. I would lose my mind out there. I'd be out there lost in the middle of. the night just literally trying to snort. up a damn mogul. You know? I get a brain freeze. That's.

when you know you Anyway, let's get our. head Let's get some help. Um. Yeah. Blessings to you, Alex. Let's. Let's take another call here. Hey, Theo. Longtime listener, first-time caller. Um. Man, I just wanted to call and say. appreciate everything you do. And you know, I was just listening to. your L Langle podcast about like. we all need She was saying how we all. this is our first go-around, right? You.

know, we're all just. living for the first time. And uh I think I've been struggling. lately with um feeling like almost like. I'm stuck in the cycle. where you know, you're alone, you're. lonely, you're by yourself, which you. know, sometimes isn't like the best. thing for you to do, but it's almost. like uh second nature. It's just what. you retreat to. And then you you know, you then you want. to go out and you go out and you hang. out with your buddies and you have. sometimes like a wild night you get.

influenced by like what you think they. want, what you think the world want, what Instagram and all you know, social. media tells you to do. So, you're. drinking, you might even get in. those little bit dirty like you used to. And uh you know, you're trying to get. all the girls' numbers and like. you know, have a have a grand old time. and you're out all night. And then uh. you kind of wake up the next day feeling. like and you're like, "I'm not even. any closer to my goals. I'm not getting. where I need to be.". Um but then you just kind of. retreat. And then you do it all over.

again. And uh I know. Yeah, I feel like maybe you once went. through this thing. I think a lot of. guys go through this through this. And. you know, I've shut off social media. Tried to like I've gone through periods. where I didn't drink for long long. periods of time. And uh I know you. sometimes just always go back to this. cuz then you're just like, "What's the. point? You know, we only We only got one. go-around on this. Like. am I going to like waste my youth? Am I. going to waste my opportunities? Um but. I'm no closer to my goals. And I think.

I'm. you know, I uh I lost my job last year. And uh. I was supposed to be like studying and. trying to get ahead for some stuff. that's going to help you get a better. job, but. uh a lot of time I just kind of let the. days go by. And now I'm stuck here, you. know, by myself sitting in my room after. the weekend kind of just. I don't know, man. Feeling down. And uh. I don't even know why, guy, you know? And uh I just wanted to know how you. deal with this. How do you get yourself. out of this? How do you get to a better. life? How do you get to a place where.

like you're not just cycling through and. you're actually moving toward things. that you want? And uh I appreciate your advice. All. right, Theo. Thanks, man. Thanks so much for the call. I I don't. think you said your name at the. beginning. But thank you. Um. Yeah, that the cycle of just like. Okay, I'm going to do this. And then I. would kind of. for me, I would like I would I'm going. to try to I would let myself down. I. would try and. And uh. I would ask God to help me. And I would.

be like I I would I would pray, you. know, um. And but I would just [clears throat] And. it was the same thing. And I appreciate your I appreciate you. being so articulate in your call and in. doing your best to share. as honestly as you could what was going. on. Um. >> [sighs and gasps]. >> I'll try to share. You know, I've been struggling, man. I've in the past like couple years I've. had, you know, it's been a struggle in. in certain ways with certain behaviors.

that I'm just not proud of, right? Or. really just behaviors that I didn't want. to do anymore. Um. And. I couldn't change it. I couldn't change. the cycle. And even as I say this, I'm. afraid that I'll fall back into those. behaviors. But I'll tell you what for me. has been helpful recently. And I'm sorry. if I sound a little. animated. I just uh. I've been like. going through this in my own life. recently. And it's on the tip of my.

thoughts and feelings. Um. You know, sometimes I I realized for. myself I would pray to God to to help me. get away from certain behaviors in my. life. Um but at the same time that I was. praying, there would be a part of me. that knew. I was probably going to do those things. again. You know? That I was probably going to do those. things again. Like I would God, please help me to I. don't want to do this anymore. I don't. want to have this behavior. But there would be a little part of me.

that was like, "I know even as I ask ask. for God's help that I'm going to do it. again." I would know I would know that. So, I started praying like this. I. started praying like, "God, please help me. with this. You know? This is a broken part of me. that I. bring to you. I need help with it." And. then I would add to my prayer I would. say, "And even God, even as I pray to. you right now, there's a part of me that.

knows I'm probably lying to you. There's a part of me that knows I'm. going to do that behavior again. So, can. you come into that part of me. and help me there? Help me in the part of me that knows as. I pray that I am. that I'm lying.". And I don't know if that sounds crazy or. not, but. uh. But I started to think that like a. connection between us and a higher.

power, it's so it's such the realest. it's like in my life it's one of the. realest things that I've ever witnessed, right? Like you go in like I'll I'll be in. meetings and uh our A recovery meetings. or um. and you see people's lives change. You. see something happen. You see. You see miracles, right? Uh. But that was what was happening you. know, it was. I couldn't change. I could I I tried. everything.

I tried everything to change I I would. tell myself I'm going to do it. different. I'm going to do that. And it. wouldn't It just I could I couldn't do. it. I couldn't do it by myself. In my whole life I've done everything by. myself. I thought. I thought I had. Uh. And so something that's just been. helping me recently is just. praying differently. You know?

Because whatever's inside of me that's. broken is really. it's manipulative and it's. you know, it would be good at pool. because it's good at. it's good at it's good at the angles. But so yeah, so I've just been praying. that God comes into those parts of me. You know? Don't just come into like the water. inside of me. Come into the Come into. the well. Come into the walls of the. well. Come into the the the the mortar or.

whatever that's in between the bricks. that cuz I'm cuz I'm broken. Cuz. cuz I'm broken all the way there. You know, and I don't mean that like in. self-pity. I don't need any I don't. But if there's a part of me that doesn't. even want the best for me then that. there's something inside of me that is. off.

So that's something that's been helping. me. Uh because some of it's been coming true. and um I don't know if it's been coming. true. I don't know if that's a term, but. uh. I don't know. I'm starting to just feel. something different. And then I was also I was I was looking. on this Bible uh. and there's a story called John 5 and. it's about a guy who's at these pools. and some people follow the Bible, some. people don't. That's fine. This is just.

a story um that I'm reciting here. Um. And. And Jesus is is at the is at the pools. and and it's in Bethesda and they're. like. there's a sick man there and he's been. sick for a long time and um. And Jesus And Jesus asks him, "Do you. want to be healed?" He asks him, "Do Do. you want to be healed?". >> [gasps]. >> And that's a crazy question because.

you know, if I get healed. then. I'm different. You know, if if somebody gets healed. they have a new story. So that's been just been something that. I've been having to ask myself. It's. like yeah, do I want to be healed? Do I really want something different?

And sometimes the. a lot of the answer is no. I don't. I want something different, but I don't. want to. I don't know if I'm scared of I don't. know what I am. I don't know if I don't want to do what. it takes to get I I can't even tell what. it is. And. uh.

It's hard for me This is so some of this. stuff is a little bit hard for me to. say. I don't even know why. But I I. think I want a new. story. You know, my story in my life and I'm. starting to make this about me kind of. but I'm just trying to share like um. You know, I when I was growing up like. my mom something was wrong with her. I. love my mother. You know, but she didn't connect with. me. She didn't like look at me.

And uh. And she didn't. you know, she wouldn't hold me that much. and she didn't look she she wouldn't. look me in the eyes, right? And uh. And so as a kid I felt like I felt like. something was wrong with me, you know, I. felt like oh if. if the person that created me won't even. look at me. then something must be so wrong with me.

Um. You know, and I've worked through a lot. of this stuff and so I'm kind of going. down this lane um. But it I just gave me with. It gave me like a lot of a lot of low. self-worth. You know? It just gave me low. self-worth. And it on it honestly it made it tough. for me to even have a self because the. only person that. I only knew who I was if you reacted to. me well, right? Like I became just a.

people pleaser because I didn't have any. feelings of self-worth. So the only way. I could get my worth was from you, right? From somebody else. And it made. sense cuz I didn't have a me. You know, I didn't have a big sense of self and so. I got myself from who you thought I was. And I needed everybody to like me. I I needed everybody to like me because. I I didn't know if I didn't know if I. didn't know if there was a one person. that didn't like me if the one of the. the. the plate stopped spinning if it was all. going to fall down.

Uh. So anyway, sorry. I'm kind of rambling, but. um. But the the the the thing that also. happened was that whole all of that. energy that negative energy. uh that uncertainty the. that became my story, right? And it gave. me like a chip on my shoulder where it. was like um. you know, I'm going to show them. I'll. show these mother You know, I'll be I'll. do this and I'll you know, it gave me. all of that. It gave me all of that. energy. Like I'll prove to them. I'll.

prove to somebody. that I'm. that I I'm worth something. I'm going to. make. Yeah. I just want to look in somebody's. eyes and have them be pleased with me. That's what I That's what I wanted. That's what I wanted. I think it's all. that any kid wants. I wanted to just. look in somebody's eyes and have them be. pleased with me. And um. And it all that gave me a chip on my.

shoulder, you know? And so anyway, so it. gave me all this energy. It was like. yeah, you know, I'm going to figure this. out. I'll never I'll do it myself. I'll. figure you know. And all that stuff served me well until. I think just until now it's like. uh. I don't know. I'm just tired of living. that story, man. I'm tired of that. story. You know, I'm tired of that story. I.

just don't want that story anymore. You know, it's been a good story and. it's served me well. Dang, homie. I'm. I'm leaking. Like yeah. It's been a good story and it's served. me well, but I don't want that story. anymore. You know, I want something. different. Because the more I just tell that story. it's just like. you know, I stay in that world. I stay. in that cycle.

>> [snorts]. >> For me and I think I. um. Yeah, so I want to have a I think I And. it's scary to say that I want to have a. new story because I'm so used to like. how those other feelings work. I know. who to be angry at. I know how to. operate here and I know how to operate. there and I know who to not give love to. and I. >> [snorts]. >> you know. I know how to make like love like very. conditional. I know how to like do all.

these I know how to navigate. to get this up vehicle down the. street. You know? Um. But I think I want a new story, dude. And it's crazy for me to even say that. But yeah, I think I want a new story. And. uh. And so that's one thing that I'm asking. God for. Yeah, I'm asking God for a new story, right? I'm asking God for the next part.

of my of me. You know, and being okay with saying I'm. you know, Like these days you know, my mother and. I have a great relationship and we and I. I love my mother. There's. There's nothing I want more. than my mother to be happy, you know? And it's funny cuz as she gets older she. kind of turns in a little bit more like. a child sometimes. And. uh.

And you kind of like the roles kind of. like. They I guess they switch a little bit. and you get to be. um. You get to try to be. uh. what you needed in a way and it's pretty. cool and that's a gift. That's a gift. from God I think. Um. And so yeah, I want to be able to. I just want to be able to uh. >> [sighs and gasps]. >> I don't know. I don't even know what I'm.

telling you, dude. Jesus Christ. This. This guy's got This guy's got to be like. God. Why did I call this idiot? Um. Yeah, so I think anyway, that's what's. been helping me like. and I never thought I would be saying. some of this stuff, but I'm glad that I. am because I just I'm ready for a new. story. I'm ready for a new story. And I'm ready for like.

Yeah, and the scary part is I don't I. like is who will I be if I let go of. these things that I've always. done and known some of these behaviors. if I even can let go of some of them and. and I know I'm not going to get anything. right or whatever and I there's no like. it just like uh. >> [sighs and gasps]. >> I don't know man. I don't even know what. I'm saying. I'm kind of tired. Um. What what can I. what can I suggest you think Trevin or. offer some thought? Do you have any.

thought about any of this? I think it's it's really hard and I. think praying is a great first step if. you don't know where to go or how to. break a cycle. Yeah. Yeah, that that that that's it. I. just like yeah, I just start like that's. that's something that's helped me is I. just started praying but I started. praying like. like as honestly as I could. Um. and even honest past that. Like God you know, I.

these behaviors I don't like them on. will you help me even though I know that. I might do them again even though I know. I want to do them again. Will you come. into the parts of me that want to do. these behaviors again and help me there? Will you come just will you come you. know. will you come all the way to the. I mean will you come to the. like past the roots. [clears throat].

And yeah, and it's just like I don't. know I and it's crazy to think that I I. could like I could have an. like I don't know. Yeah, I don't know a lot of it's scary. to me and and some of this isn't making. sense and I'm sorry man. I think I'm. just getting kind of burnt out. It's. been a. >> [sighs and gasps]. >> It's been a I don't know what it's been.

but I just I'm glad that you care about. what's going on. And yeah, to get out of the cycle man, it's hard. And to show up for myself other things. that I've been doing is I've been. getting up early. I've been doing some. yoga. I've been doing a workout at home. Um I went and played basketball the. other day with some friends. I hadn't. done that in years man and you know. what? I felt good. I left out of there. I went to an AA meeting and I started. like just like I'm not bragging. I'm. just saying I started getting active. You know.

And I started coming to my own rescue. a little bit but I started just showing. up for myself and if I told somebody I'm. going to do something then I came and. did it. And I haven't I've never done that a lot. in my life but for the past few weeks. I've been doing it and. when. when I say something and then I do it. there's a part of me that hears that, right? And there's a part of me that starts to. have like a okay, this guy is he's.

somebody who says he's going to do. something and he and he does it. And so that then part of me starts to. build up that it's like I'm it's like. I'm building somebody new, man. Um and I'm not trying to challenge or. anything. I'm just telling you kind of. what's been working for me. Uh. And yeah, I know anyway, this shit's all. over the place. >> [sighs]. >> Plenty of my vape, you know. I wish the. church made vapes, dude. Those things.

would slap. Is that bad Trevin to say that? They're. base in like Catholic churches they got. the incense. They're basically they've. been vaping. Oh, dang. Yeah, let me get a little bit of dude if. they freaking had a you know, I got that. frankincense 3,000 puffs homie. That. thing would be popping. But yeah, I don't know. I've like I've. sat in rooms and been in meetings and. done this for like I've done that cycle. a long time and right now something's. feeling a little bit different and it's.

scary for me to even say that because. there's a part of me that doesn't want. things to be different but there's a. part of me that's growing that wants to. have a new story for me. And I didn't think I could have a new. story. You know, I think maybe in my head I did. and but I in my heart I didn't. think that. And so. yeah. But. yeah, thanks for calling dude and thanks. for. thinking of us and yeah, I don't know. the answer to how to get out of the. cycle. I don't know. Uh And if I ever.

get all the way out, I'll promise I'll. I'll share it with you. Um. but. yeah, thanks for hitting the hotline and. uh. and yeah, just thinking out loud and. just thanks for being honest, bro. I. felt like your call was really honest. Like this is what's going on. And I'm tired of it and what can I do? And I wish I had the answers for you. Um. you know, I wish I had the answers for you but.

uh. that's all I got. Uh all right, let's hear this call. Hi Theo, this is Quinn. Uh big fan of the show. I just wanted to share a Bible verse. with you. It's Ecclesiastes 3:11. Um it's brought. me a lot of comfort because. the way things are lately. it's been pretty weird, pretty scary. A. A A man, bro. It's weirder than that. Onward.

And um I know that people who care. deeply. can can kind of be affected by that fear. deeply. So. anyway, the Bible verse is this. Um. he has made everything beautiful in its. time and he's put eternity into the. human heart and no man can know his plan. from beginning to end. That's pretty close. It's funny I got nervous for a voicemail. but anyway, um. everything is beautiful in God's time. even if that's a reality we don't live.

in right now. It will be a reality because God. promises us that he'll make it beautiful. and I know you got eternity in your. heart. You got that eternity mindset and. you spread a lot of light so. I know. things are weird but it's all going to. be good. Sorry to you. I feel silly leaving this but I hope you. have a great day and. thanks for what you do. Bye. Type king.

Uh. That it almost felt like that was like. that. like what if that was like the kid me. calling back and telling me this. And yeah, we have to just do our best, you know, and pray. I'm praying that God like helps me be a. warrior. You know. I'm praying that God helps me be a. warrior. You know, because. we might need we might need people that. are that are that can be warriors. Now I. don't I'm not going to be like one of. the front words. Did I will be a warrior.

in the back. You heard me, bro? I'll be a warrior in the back eating. chips and talking boy. But still, bro. You still get you still. qualify. You get that warrior payment. You still get that that warrior check, that W check, bro. So I'll get that. Um. but yeah, thank you guys for being part of the. episode. You guys be good to yourselves. You deserve it and. yeah, just thanks for giving me a place. where I can come and share about things. and that we can come and we can share.

about things and uh. yeah, that's all I got. Trevin, anything. you want to say? Not much for me. It was a great one and. yeah, check out the movie if you guys. can busboysmovie.com. Thanks, Trevin. And yeah, and I I was. thinking this spring, that's the thing, man. You know, like a spring is a time. for a new story, you know. So and I don't even know if I can stick. with this some of these behaviors that. are making me feel different. I don't. know even know if I can. So I'm scared even really talk about it.

to be honest with you. But [sighs]. I don't know. So many times I've been in. spaces I've been afraid to say that I. feel like there's a possibility. for something new for me. I've been. afraid to really say that. So I think. I'm at least just trying something. different today. And if that's. you know, if at the very least that's. all that is and um. then I'm trying something different, trying something new. Um [snorts]. you guys be good to yourselves, baby. You deserve it. Praise God, baby. Almost.

stairs. Now I'm just floating on the. breeze and I feel I'm falling like these. leaves. [music] I must be. cornerstone. Oh, but when I reach that ground, [music] I'll share this [singing] peace. of mind I found. I can feel it in my. bones. But it's going to take.
