Why Chido Santino? Why that, why that?

I'll tell you, when I first moved to Los Angeles, I was playing this basketball league with these kids from East LA. There was the only connection I had in LA with these couple of kids that I knew from Long Beach.

And we would go play ball in this league, and then afterwards, we'd go to a bar and just get shit-faced, just blacked out, out of our mind, 22 Every dime we had was going to booze and partying. So we were partying, and I'm wearing basketball shorts, like white people do when you play basketball. And all my Mexican friends, they wear like whatever they had on the floor that morning. It was like jeans and whatever. There was never basketball shoes for them.

And we're sitting there drinking, and this dude, Pavo, this buddy of mine, he looks down at my legs and he goes, dog, I gotta fucking ask you a question, player. Like, did you have fucking orange leg hairs, dog? I was like, dude, I've known you for years, you've never seen that? He's like, no, dog, it's so gross, dog.

It's nasty to look at, bro. It's kinda like if you ate a bag of Cheetos and you wiped the finger dust all over your fucking legs and you got Cheeto legs, dog. So the Cheeto thing, so then all these dudes, all these fucking, all these homies were always like, Cheeto! It was just stuck so hard that when I got Twitter and Instagram, I was like, I have to have Cheeto as my shit. Like, I have to embrace the Cheeto.

Joe Rogan (1:17)

Embracing the Cheeto.

Andrew Santino (1:18)

Embrace the Cheeto, man.

Joe Rogan (1:20)

Wow.

Andrew Santino (1:21)

Yeah, that's one.

Joe Rogan (1:21)

This is a good time for orange haired comedians. The two of the greatest of all time have orange hair.

Andrew Santino (1:26)

It's wild because I've always been such a massive fan of Burr. I mean, I can't preach him enough. I think I do it, I dick ride him so hard. I think many people I talk to are like, all right dude, enough. Like I get it, you like him.

But I do, man. I've always loved him. And Louie has changed the game in a totally different way.

But those two dudes are just shocking.

Joe Rogan (1:46)

Burr right now is, he's doing something real special. And he's also a man's man, an unapologetic man.

Andrew Santino (1:54)

Dude, thank God.

Joe Rogan (1:55)

Oh, there's so few. It's such a hard time to be a guy.

Andrew Santino (1:58)

Yeah, you're not allowed to. Shame on you.

Joe Rogan (2:01)

If you say that, if you say that, people are like, boo, boo, it's so hard to be a man with all your male privilege. Boo, oh, cisgendered males complaining about how hard it is. We're being judged, folks, we're being judged harshly.

Andrew Santino (2:14)

White straight male, I'm the literal enemy, public enemy number one right now.

I walk around, you are the enemy. You're automatically a rapist and a misogynist and an ego maniacal, money hungry driven, bad human being. It's so fucked up.

Joe Rogan (2:29)

This is how ridiculous it's gotten. There was an article, oh, they're still complaining about being a man. There was an article that I just read that was advocating that women should never go to prison. It was like, let's stop putting women in prison.

Yeah, see if you can find it. It was the idea was that women are suppressed and they already represent such a significantly small portion of the US population that really-

Andrew Santino (2:59)

Then they don't deserve the same punishment as other people that have heinous crimes.

Joe Rogan (3:02)

The number of women hit men would just go through the fucking roof, right? Hit people if they couldn't be arrested.

Andrew Santino (3:07)

Yeah, oh my God, so much domestic. Well, that's like saying, okay, so if that's what the article's trying to say then, then say any other repressed group in society, then minorities can't go to prison anymore.

That's the same logic.

Joe Rogan (3:20)

They represent a much larger percentage though. So the thing that she's saying about women is there's so few women in prison already, and women are, like a lot of their behavior is due to the fact they've been suppressed by men.

Andrew Santino (3:32)

Okay, sure, oh my God.

Joe Rogan (3:34)

Well, it's just the idea of us being on two teams is so crazy. The penis team and the vagina team. It's that simple?
