Hey, what's going on? It's Bill Burr and it's time for the Monday morning podcast for Monday, June 15, 2020 6. 6. 6. What's going on? How are ya? How's it going, everybody? Oh, guess what? You know this thing that I. This cold I've had for like a month that then I just self diagnosed. I must have picked up some sort of virus. Do I get Covid? Do I need to go? Yeah, it turns out I have walking pneumonia. I got the walk of pneumonia in the boogie boogie. So it's a little bit of that. I'm an antibiotic and I'm contagious evidently, so I've been masking it up, you know. Were you a fucking snowflake? You know what's funny about this? We just want to think it can't get any more, bro. Yeah, Ignorant or overtly racist. It just goes to another level. It just goes to another level. It's just such cringy. I can't. I don't even. It's just so stupid. It's the dumbest shit ever. All these white guys excited that, you know, they've retaken the country that they never lost. Yeah, bro. Yeah. It's even infiltrated the arts, which you can't. I just cannot believe we used to be like the fucking good guys, right? The guys used to fucking make fun of everything, you know, rather than picking aside. Anyway, what are you gonna do? What are you gonna do? You know, it's all God's fault. God makes us in his image and evidently he is a tortured up individual. Anyway, yeah, so I got the. The walking pneumonia in the boogie woogie flu. So I'm on an antibiotic and then there's all this other. I'm supposed to be taking most of this over the counter kind of stuff, so I'm just crushing the waters. I want to thank everybody that came out to Pawtucket. This is gonna be a short podcast because I'm not gonna sit here hacking in your goddamn ears. I did Pawtucket. Played a soccer stadium there. That's the first time they had. And I want to thank everybody for coming out, apologize for the logistics of it and the parking and all that. That was the first time they ever did something like that. So, you know, they're working the bugs out of it. But it was so fun to be back there, man. I stayed in the North End like I always do in North End of Boston, and I just have so many memories that come flooding back when I'm there. You know, first off, in Rhode island, you know, John Parotta. What's going on, brother? He fucking came out to the show. He used to book me, as I mentioned, Periwinkles in. I think it was Cranston, Rhode Island, I can't remember. But he was the first booker that I met that wasn't a scumbag. He was the first guy that I met, you know, that was booking new comedians that was actually a straight shooter. He told you what time the show was, he told you how much you were making, and he said he was gonna feed you. And all three of those things happened, and he was just a fucking solid dude, you know, it gave you hope. It's like, all right, man. There's. There's some good people here, you know, as opposed to, you know, one more time. I did this show at the Comedy Connection in Providence, and I middled, right? The rest of the country calls it featuring, but in. In. In Boston, they called it middling, right? You're middle act, right? So I went up. The host goes up. He does his thing, okay? So the host gets paid such and such money. The middle makes a little more than the host, and then the headliner makes headliner money. So I do my gig or whatever and I get the check, and they gave me host money. So I called this dude up who later got busted for stealing from the club, this scumbag. And I called him and I was like, dude, hey, you know, I was the middle act on that. You gave me. He gave me host money. He goes, oh, no, no, no, no. He goes, you co hosted. Like he invented a term. I go, I mean, I co hosted. I didn't co host. Co host would have indicated that. I went up there with the host and we did like a comedy team. He hosted. He start. Warmed up the show, and then I went up and I did 20 minutes and then brought him back up, and that's called middling. You owe me that money. And I think he fucked me out of that money, the fat fuck. Remember, too, you still. He likes. He was a fat fuck. And he used to put his eyebrows down. He tried to, like, fucking, you know, it was funny. He tried to chest up with you, but his stomach would get there first. Stupid Joe Pesci. Joe Pesci suit he used to wear. That's not easy to say. Joe Pesci suit. Joe Pesci suit, yeah. You come walking up, what's the problem? You go, you got a fucking problem. He's the kind of guy you beat with food, you know, like a big thing of Hard salami just for the irony of it. But I had no power, so I had to just take the money. And I remember what happened was, you know, word got out. Word got out that he was the middle ax. So he would call the guy, the audacity called, call me back, what are you doing on June 21st? And I'd be like, oh, yeah, I'm booked. And everybody just kept saying they were booked and no one was taking the gig. So then he got fucking wise to that. So then he goes, what are your avails? He goes, what are your avails for Providence, Rhode Island? And I go, why? What do you got me down there co hosting for a Twinkie? He's like, huh? And then I didn't say anything. And then it's like, all fucking cunts. He tries to turn around, he goes, oh, was it like that? Like what, dude? I didn't do anything. I went down there and middled you pay me host money. I didn't create this situation. You did. And I was just to the point. I remember I was doing Dick Doherty, Dick Doherty's rooms up and fucking Drake it. I got a new room in Methuen. You gotta go up there with Justin McKinney and all these guys that I fucking started out with. That's gonna make me cough. I used to love with Dick Doherty would get mad. This voice would go. He would get all the way up there. You were fucking 20 minutes late. I paid your shit. Oh, sorry. Yes. That was a nice fucking ten minute coughing fit. Had hit pause there. But Dougherty was a good guy. He was a good guy. But it was, it was always like, you know, for one moment to the next. He was volatile. So you didn't know, you know, you didn't know where it was gonna go. It could have been something you did. It could have been somebody else. You did something and you were just standing there. He was one of those guys. He was a character. Anyway, so I was just thinking of all of those gigs that I did down there. And. And I remember when I first started doing the gigs down there, what I was thinking about, because I started in the 90s. I've always gone down to Rhode island and just had memories, right? So when I used to go down there as a young comic and go down there to do standup, I would be thinking back to the 80s, how I used to go down there to the Providence Civic center, you know, and I would see all these fucking metal shows. That was the first time I ever saw somebody do cocaine. Remember I pulled up my 83 Ford Ranger, you know, said, like a 12 pack. Like, I was a lightweight, you know, I was sitting there with my buddy, and we were pulling up, and I still remember this guy. He had, like, blonde hair, almost like a bowl cut, but it was like. Like he got, like, a perm. He was, like, growing it out, but it was just a little bit below his ears. And I pulled up, and he was already gacked out of his mind. And he came up to my window like a bear. I just remember that he was like, hey, Shake J. Shake. I just remember being so thankful that I had a bench seat, because I could, you know, if needed be, we both could have gone out the side door, you know, the drugs that they had in the 80s, like, if you punch somebody, they didn't feel anything, you know, Everybody was fucking up, man. It was an up time, you know, Fucking Ric Flair, MLE Crew. Greed is good. It was just. Everybody was just like, yeah, that was the vibes. And I kind of. You know, it's like, I'm not matching your. Like, nowadays, I would have matched his energy, you know, on some level, or I would have given him a look like, you know. You know, that look, it's like, I'm not gonna fight you, but if I have to, that look, because I don't want to escalate it. But, like, you know, I was fucking little Billy Burr there. I was just like, golly gee, I'm gonna go to a rock and roll show. Like, I just. I did not have the vibe. I. You know, my face was as smooth as a baby's ass. Like, I was. You know, so this fucking guy comes up with all this goddamn, my parents never hugged me issues, and he's fucking. Ah. And then I remember he got. So this. He looked like Sammy Hagar's bastard child. He gets back in his car, and I remember just like the movies, they had, like, a little mirror, like a compact. And I saw him doing blow. And then I was like, oh, that's what that is. Because I. I never. You know, I'd never seen it, so I'd never been around anybody. And I don't know what it was. I just thought I was like, this guy's crazy, like, bite your face, Hannibal Lecter vibes. So, like, it was funny. So, like, the first 10 minutes, I'm in the parking lot, like, you know, we're sitting there with the windows up, drinking our beers, going like, dude, what the. You know? So he goes in the car and he starts doing blow. So then that was my Opportunity to get out. You know what I mean? I mean, I was never good. I mean, squaring off. I would lose a fight. Forget about me getting out of a car, getting jackhammered by Sammy Davis Jr Jr. No, it's not Sam. Sammy Hagar Jr Jr. Right. Wrong concert. So I fucking get out. And then I got out, and I was sort of like his size, and he was like a burnout. And you know, those kids, it's all. It's just. It's just all. I don't know what the it was, but, you know, they. They would. They. You know, their legs were like pencils or whatever. And then my buddy was. And he wasn't jacked, but he was kind of fat, so I felt all right. I'm like, okay. I think we're okay. So we kind of just went around and we just sort of, you know, stood on the other side of the truck and kind of drank our beers there. And I communicated him across the bed, and I just kept my energy, like, medium so he would feel. It's like, dude, I. I'm not going. You know, I'm not going three octaves up wherever the. You. I just like. It's. What's one of those things, you know? It's like, dude, I just want to go see a show. This is my favorite band of all time, okay? Can I just do this without getting the shit kicked out of me? Would that be okay with you and your fucking eight ball? Most of which is probably some sort of baby laxative. Sorry. Anyways, but let's get to the fucking. The. The show at hand here. Hang on. Your New York City Knickerbockers. The New York Knicks, something I didn't know if I was ever going to say in my lifetime, are the 2025, 2026 NBA champions. And I got to tell you, man, that was one of the most fun fucking things I've watched in sports in a while. It's one of my favorite fucking things to see in sports, even if, you know, I don't like, necessarily like the team, but I like. I've always liked the Knicks, and I've always liked their fans. And I like that arena. You know, when I look at that arena, I think of the early 70s Knicks, I think about Muhammad Ali, and I think about the fucking 94 Rangers, which was the first time I saw a fucking curse broken, which was 54 years, 1940 to 1994. And I just remember everybody holding up signs, I can die now. And all of this shit. And that iconic. Let's go Rangers. That was so fucking iconic, everybody. It changed how people chanted for their teams. I told. I've said that shit before. It used to be, here we go, Bruins, here we go. And they were, let's go Rangers. Now people go, let's go Bruins. It was just. Everybody was watching it and fucking Mark Messier was like. He was like, fucking John Wayne. We're gonna win tonight. I guarantee it. You know, guy was. He was like fucking Clint Eastwood. And. And then he goes and they do win and he scores the goal. It was just. It was amazing. Obviously, the Red Sox doing it. Seeing the Cubs win one White Sox wasn't as big a deal. I don't know why I felt like they should have got more. You know, some reason they didn't get the love I felt like they. They deserve. But whatever, like. And there's nothing too, like, as a Patriots fans, like, I don't like the jets, but it's not like intense, you know, it was intense when Bill Parcells was there. It was intense when Rex Ryan was there. When the jets are good, man, it's like, it is a good rivalry, but like, dude, I'm the day they win a fucking Super Bowl. I'm gonna. I'm gonna be so happy for those fans. I just think it's such a cunty thing to do, to want people to stay in their misery. And, you know, not for nothing, a lot of those Knicks fans are Yankee fans and they used to be chant in 1918 and all of us Red Sox fans and rubbing our face in it. And there's. There's sports karma for that. I believe that. So anyway, to see them finally win it, like, I've been having like the best time looking at. Fan reactions like, die. I saw this guy sitting there watching the end, like crying. This guy probably my age, and he's wearing an Allen Houston, you know, Knicks jersey. Just a Die Hard. I love that man. So congratulations to them. They were clearly the. The best team in the league. And also congratulations to the San Antonio Spurs. They were a super young team and now they got one of the best educations you can ever get, which is being that close and losing and that bitter taste. You know, I saw Spike Lee saying how, you know, the spurs are a great team. They haven't been through the fire yet. Well, now they have. And the fire is your. That abruptness when it's over and you don't have a game the next day. And you were that close. And now you have to start all over again. You know, I feel like the Knicks learned that last year, losing to the Pacers. So, whatever, I just, I. I really enjoyed that. And I also looked up. Do you know how long Spike Lee's had season tickets? You want to talk about a die Hard, that guy got season tickets in 1985. Dude, that was a year before I saw ACDC on the who made who tour and saw that dude doing blow for the first time. Just think about how fucking long ago that was. Spike Lee had already had season tickets for a year, and as his career went up, his seats moved up and eventually he got, you know, at first he was like, in the upper deck. First of all, I just have to say, as a sports fan, the envy that I have of that, that this guy has basically seen all the great players of the last 40 years. I mean, he. When he got season tickets, Michael Jordan still had hair. He had hair and no rings. That's how long ago that guy had tickets. So I don't know. It was. It was fucking awesome. And of course, my best friend in the whole world, Paul Verzej, he still. I still haven't talked to him. He's so. He was like. I think he probably went out for the whole night, you know, I think he went to the game, the game, the clincher. And I don't know. It's. It's. I was. It was fun. I love that about sports. I really do. Or if somebody gets all the time and they're like, oh, they can't win the big one. You know, they're like a great player. They can't. You know, all the fat sport writers like to get on him. Like when Elway got a Super bowl and then he got another one, he got two back to. Back to end his career. Like, yeah, shut the fuck up. I love that. Any of those types of things. So anyway. Oh, my God, it's got. How great does it gotta feel to be a Knicks fan right now? That's fucking awesome. And more moving on to hockey, the NHL. Congratulations to the Carolina Hurricanes and the Vegas Knights. An incredible series, I don't know. And Rod Brindemore. I don't know if they just figured him out. I can never. I never know exactly what they do. I was traveling a lot, so I caught highlights, but I got to catch the end of the game last night. And that's cup number two for the Hartford Whalers. Carolina Hurricanes. So congratulations to them and everybody on that team. And this year's NHL playoffs, you know, I always watch the. The east side. That's what I always watch, you know, and it's some of the best hockey I've seen in a while. The series were all great. Watching Montreal come, you know, rise back up again and become a force. Win a couple of playoff series, get all the way to the Eastern Conference finals. Winning game one, you're like, oh, my God, is this like 1993 again? Are they just gonna keep winning all of these heart attack games only to see Carolina show their poise and their superiority and win the next four? Like, that is a legit fucking championship team. And as always, I will say the cup presentation, you might. Can we dial it down a little bit? It's getting a little Ice Capades. Jesus Christ. When the fucking dude picks up the cup and we got sparklers, Hooray. I was expecting Dorothy Hamill to come out. That's still. It's still the best trophy just because it's the same one, you know, and I don't know, Carolina's on it twice now. And you stay on the cup for 50 years. I learned that from Joe Bartnik, because Joe Bartnik hates the Philadelphia Penguins fan. He hates the Flyers so much that he said, Every 50 years, know, you stay on the cup for 50 years, you become part of that lower band and then they replace the lower band or whatever, and then they. They put a new one on. And the Flyers is officially no Flyers on the Stanley cup as of either this year or last year, because the last one they won was 75. 74. 75, 50 fucking years. It's crazy. I don't know. What do you guys think about a 50 year drought? I mean, it's bad, but you got it now that there's like 32 fucking teams. I feel like if you win one now once every 30 years, 32 years, that's average. That's literally what your odds are. You have a 1 in 32 chance or 30 chance of winning it. I think when I was coming up, there was only like 25 teams, 26 teams, you know, that's why, you know, I feel like a lot of these teams that won a crazy amount of championships back in the day when there was like half the amount of teams and not to mention like half the amount of playoff games, like back in the day, like the World Series, like winning the pennant. All it was, it was the American League and the National League, and at the end of playing 159 games, whatever they played back then, whoever had the best record in both, if you had the best record in the American League, that was winning the pennant, and you just went to the World Series. So there was one playoff series at the end of the regular season. The best in the National League played the best in the American League. So the most you would play is an extra seven games in the playoffs. Now, even if you have the best record in the league, you still have to play three rounds, potentially 21 fucking games. So I think it's way harder to win. Maybe that's why they've changed the rules of, like, what a dynasty is. You know, where it used to be, you had to win three in a row. Then it became, you know, three and four years or whatever. Whatever the fuck it was. I don't understand it all the way to the point where I saw, like, the Chiefs. The Chiefs wanted. Went to this amount of, like, AFC Championship games and Super Bowls. Like, this one was like, that's a dynasty. It's like, yeah, but, dude, they were losing. You know, they lost like three Super Bowls, didn't they? Two or three. I don't know. I. I don't know how the fuck you lose. I don't know. Everybody has, like, their own takes because someone was trying to rank as far as the Knicks winning, not winning. Oh, the, the, the. The tipping in Game four as far as, like, the greatest. And I love conversations like this, the greatest moment in New York sports. So they were asking Larry David. He said, I would put that up with, like, Bucky Dent. That was a great reference. Then he said, Aaron Boone. I didn't agree with that one, but I'm not a New York sports fan, that maybe he just hates the Red Sox that much. But it was like, yeah, but you didn't win the World Series that year. You lost to the Marlins. And then, I don't know, the Aaron Boone home run doesn't bother. It bothered me when it happened. But then the next year we won it. So it didn't. It didn't get a chance to get into your soul, you know, I'm not gonna lie to you. It turned me into a zombie for 12 months. But then, you know, we beat the Yankees the next year. So it was like that. That was like. There was a paper cut where Bucky Dent and Bill Buckner, oh, my. They sat in there for fucking decades. Those were borderline terminal. But if I was going to say the greatest ones that I saw, New York, okay, that game four tip in and the Knicks win in it, the Giants beating the undefeated Patriots. As much as that hurt me, that was one of the great fucking moments. The jets, and I would say Mark Messier than them winning the cup. That was a great one. And I, I just have to tortured a perspective on the 86 Mets to say that that was great. I'm. I imagine they thought it was like whoever it was that ran across the plate for the Mets to win it that game six and he was like holding his head like he couldn't believe. I feel like that's how all Mets fans felt anyways. And I know Yankee fans were like really fucking excited that that happened to Red Sox fans. And that's that fucking karma, dude. That's that karma. Next thing you know, you gotta wait fucking 53 years with the Knicks. So anyways, congratulations to the Knicks, congratulations to the Carolina Hurricanes. And you know, just as a sports fan without a dog in the fight, you know, it's really enjoyable sports to watch so I don't have to watch all this fucking ugliness that's going on around the world and in our country. What the fuck are we doing? We're supposed to be improving as people don't get it. I don't get it. All right, I'm going to do.

Then pivot to how policygenius does the work of searching for the best life insurance plan for you while you enjoy long summer days with your loved ones. I already have life insurance. What do I plan on doing? I got two weeks on an independent movie in, in Ireland, so I plan on going over there, having a great fucking time, knocking out this part, dude. And, you know, putting my freckled toes, putting my feet up because I already have insurance. I will say getting life insurance is a scary thing to do as a guy. Aside from giving your wife motive is, you know, guys don't like going to the doctor. Walking pneumonia. Hello. And we also, like, we can't. We can't deal with any of our fucking emotions because we were. That's the way we were raised, you know, and then we marry women and then they say that we're fucking weak rather than trying to understand the fact that the way that we were raised was actually emotionally abusive. But, you know, it's not about you. It's never about you. So anyway, I can tell you this, you know, you don't want to think about that you're going to die someday. But you know, you are. It is beyond a relief to get life insurance and know that when you die, you know, hopefully these fucking asshole insurance companies will actually do what they said that they're going to do, which is, you know, they're not in the business to do that, are they? They're in the business of collecting premiums and then denying claims. But I think with life insurance, you're good. How was that?

Wear them out in a stall. Jump out there and Shake your nuts. Your balls are cool. You don't give a fuck when you buy some fucking meundies. And they're perfect to cool you nuts in the summertime when you're down at the pool. All right. Meundies. You know, I was at the DMV the other day. I was packed, no ac. Guy next to me smelled like he'd been living inside a hockey bag since 2007. Somehow I'm sitting there, comfortable, which honestly made no sense. Then I realized it was the meundies. Usually halfway through one of those miserable errands, your underwear starts turning against you there, waistband digging in, swamp situation happening. Fabric bunching up like a window curtain. Not these things. Me undies are ridiculously comfortable. Soft, breathable, stretchy, all the fun adjectives. They actually stay where they're supposed to stay without you constantly adjusting yourself in public. And when it's hot, and believe me, it gets hot, they keep you cool instead of turning your pants into a sauna, which as a grown man, is really all I'm asking for at this point. And fellas, the fellas, they got this thing called the ball caddy, which first of all, incredible name. It's basically a boxer brief with a built in pouch for your precious cargo. Everything stays supported and separated, secure. It's like a push up bra for your nuts. No bunching, no awkward adjusting, none of that nonsense. You put these things on and suddenly you're walking around with confidence of a guy who finally got his act together, your balls finally broke up and got out of that suffocating situation. And me undies has tons of styles too. Boxers, briefs, trunks, all the good stuff. Plus over 100 colors and prints if you want to get a little flashy. Personally, I'm at the point in life where I find something, if I find something comfortable, I buy like eight of them and refuse to evolve any further as a human being.

Episode: Walking Pneumonia, Rhode Island, Knicks
Host: Bill Burr
Date: June 15, 2026
Podcast: Monday Morning Podcast (All Things Comedy)
In this episode, Bill Burr delivers his trademark blend of rants, sports talk, and comedic storytelling—all while battling a case of walking pneumonia. The show dives into memories from his early stand-up days in Rhode Island, reflections on comedy club bookers, the state of American sports (with a particular emphasis on the New York Knicks’ NBA Championship), and the joy and cruelty of sports fandom. As always, Bill throws in social commentary, life observations, and a flurry of humor, even while recovering from illness.
On Standup in Rhode Island:
“He was the first guy that I met… that was actually a straight shooter…he told you what time the show was, he told you how much you were making, and he said he was gonna feed you. And all three of those things happened.” — Bill Burr, [04:20]
On Shady Bookers:
“He tried to chest up with you, but his stomach would get there first.” — Bill Burr, [07:30]
On Sports Suffering and Catharsis:
“I just think it’s such a cunty thing to do, to want people to stay in their misery.” — Bill Burr, [19:30]
On Spike Lee's Knicks Fandom:
“When he got season tickets, Michael Jordan still had hair. He had hair and no rings. That’s how long ago that guy had tickets.” — Bill Burr, [23:00]
On Cup Presentations:
“Can we dial it down a little bit? It’s getting a little Ice Capades. Jesus Christ.” — Bill Burr, [37:00]
On “Walking Pneumonia” and His Work Ethic:
“What happens when somebody raised German Irish gets pneumonia? They just keep working and they walk around with pneumonia. It's not really true. It’s like it’s the Coors Light of pneumonia.” — Bill Burr, [44:50]
