JOSEPH.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:14)
Good to see you.

**David Cross** (0:14)
Good to see you.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:15)
Dude, I haven't seen you in a long fucking time. When was the last time we were actually in a room together?

**David Cross** (0:20)
Well, I was trying to think of that. I don't know. I would imagine post-news radio, we hung out at some point at some show somewhere.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:30)
Somewhere.

**David Cross** (0:30)
But I don't know. But I do remember, because I did news radio a couple of times and we hung out. I remember, I think we both, no, just you had more hair than I was probably already at this point.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:46)
I was fighting to keep it. I was hanging on.

**David Cross** (0:50)
Do you shave or is that it?

**SPEAKER_4** (0:51)
Oh, it's, I mean, I'm bald. If I didn't shave, I'd be bald all the way up here. But I got a hair transplant and it was useless.

**David Cross** (0:59)
Yeah.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:00)
I did a joke about it. I go, having a hair transplant is like taking people that are healthy and moving them into a neighborhood where everyone's dying. This is just like, where did Bob go? He just fucking flew off the face of the earth.

**David Cross** (1:13)
So, yeah, so you just accepted it and said, fuck it. Yeah.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:18)
I should have done it a long time ago. It's so much better and I don't have to talk to a barber. I don't have to listen to boring stories while they hold you hostage with a pair of scissors.

**David Cross** (1:27)
That's what this is. This gets me. I don't like shaving. I don't. It's kind of a pain in the ass. And I also I look like a kind of a look like a turtle, you know, when I shave. I don't like it.
And it's not attractive to me. And I jerk off to me all the time. So I want to keep things fresh.
But I this I probably don't have to. I could probably get clippers and stuff. But I go to, you know, one of my guys around the corner where I live.
And I have this experience where I want that guy. I want to get in and out, right? Because of what you were saying. I mean, a lot of chit chat. And there are a couple of guys, very quiet. Hi, how you doing? Good. Fist bump, whatever. You know what I want. Get out of there. There is one guy who just talks all the... And then they have that... the blade, you know? What do you call that? You know, the blade blade.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:34)
Straight razor.

**David Cross** (2:34)
Thank you.
And they got it right there, so you got to be polite. It's on your... it's by your...

**SPEAKER_4** (2:41)
Yeah.

**David Cross** (2:42)
You know, and...
I know I could avoid it if I just get some clippers and just do this thing, but I don't. I don't know, that was boring, and sorry. It was... as I was... there's no point to it.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:56)
It has to do with...

**David Cross** (2:57)
Barely has anything to do with what we were talking about.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:01)
There's something about a beard, though, that makes you distinguished, or at least have experience.

**David Cross** (3:06)
Or look like a homeless, you know, a little alcoholic. I mean, there are plenty of those guys, too.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:13)
Yeah, there's a lot of those, too. But a beard is like...
There's a statement with a beard. Like a full beard, like yours, white.

**David Cross** (3:22)
Mine is just... You know, I don't like shaving. Like, you know... And again, I...
I do... like, I only gain weight in two places. Stomach, and right here. And also I have a kind of a thin frame.
So it's really not attractive. It's not attractive.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:44)
So the beard is sort of...

**David Cross** (3:47)
It's more laziness. It's...
I don't have to worry about it.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:51)
Yeah. No, I hear you.

**David Cross** (3:52)
And this, you know, I just... I go, I don't know, six, seven weeks, and then I just shave it. Once it gets out, because this... My hair doesn't grow down or... It just grows out like a clown. You know, it goes this way. All of it. Even this too.
And once this starts filling in, it just looks goofy.

**SPEAKER_4** (4:14)
Yeah, I have a friend, my friend Asan, he used to shave his head, and now, purposely to look goofy, he lets the sides go out.
