Nick desires the ability to desire in order to feel okay in his existence. Adam suggests that this peace is gained through kindness to others. Both ideas are gay and the mandolorian is my second favorite show after the sopranos.
13:36 I love how nick is reaching out to adam for advice and is finally opening up on the pod, and adam uses it as an oppourtunity to validate his condecension of ernie hudson. Men are my preferred gender of sexual attraction.
The nature setting is very comforting for me because when I first discovered cumtown I worked as a groundskeeper and I’d always have almost this exact setting around me while listening. Very cool stuff
@Gwap97 nothing better than the boys and being solo. I've done grounds work aswell. I didn't know how much I'd miss it after I quit. How'd it go for you?
@@shoDOHC I used to listen to the boys while doing groundskeeping and landscaping too. I miss digging holes, riding the mower and fixing things, especially now that I have a mostly boring desk job. The pay sucked though.
Same here. I was landscaping, pulling weeds in the rain listening to Stav laugh like an evil pig as Nick and Adam regaled him with tales of Steven Segal being gay
Much like how Nick can only truly speak about his feelings when doing a character, everyone in the comments has to soften their serious statements by adding “I’m gay” at the end. Also, I’m gay.
Stav was Nick's muse. Stav's easy and infectious laugh was fuel to Nick's fire. Adam was always a side character to punch down on, and now that's all Nick has, he hates it. He's lost without Stav to riff off of.

Drugs suck, weed is gay and a waste of time and money, it makes you a boring person that's not enjoyable to hang with because you're always high and not truly there in the moment like people are when they're sober. All weed people care about first and foremost in their life is getting high, it interferes with their ability to do anything else. Alcohol is even worse than weed for obvious reasons, same with cocaine and even moreso when people are drinking alcohol and snorting coke. Mushrooms make people weird and also pull them out from reality make them not coherent and frankly unpredictable. LSD is just insane, you can't function like a normal sober human being when you're blasted tripping on acid. Mr.Mackey is right, drugs are bad, mkay?
How can Nick be this smart and be so cruelly reticent in regards to his innermost thoughts. Could listen to this guy go back and forth with Adam for ages
Thinking in any way that enjoying or not enjoying a corporate slop show like the mandalorian is somehow a litmus test for one's capacity to experience happiness is truly psychopathic
i think they're using it as an example but my sense is that nick is arguing a little bit in bad faith like he doesn't really want to enjoy the mandalorian, i think he might have been fishing to be told that he's actually correct to be depressed in a fucked up world
@evanhudson881 Nick doesn't strike me as someone who wants to be given a hall pass for his depression, however, he absolutely strikes me as someone who, on certain days, just wants to be upset rather than search for meaningful solutions.
It really isn't. The happiest people I know just sit back and consume everything that is spoon fed to them and sit and clap and think it's amazing and look forward to more. The Mandalorian is just an example in this case.
Damn. Ducks got it pretty good. I was just enjoying them swimming about and its something for sure. Us humans have really created a complicated world for ourselves.
The whole piece is unconsciously a good summary of the human condition Nick: Life is ultimately meaningless (I'm depressed because of that) - or reverse the cause/effect Adam: In life we can find meaning (and some things bring me some happiness) - or reverse the cause/effect Nick essentially seems to have a chemical imbalance yet wont seek medical treatment for it. I sympathise with that

My boyfriend and I had a similar, if a little less eloquent, conversation a few weeks ago. I think I was the Adam in the conversation and get his frustration in not feeling as logical/coherent as Nick in the moment. Recently new to listening to these guys but loving their stuff so far! Also, I’m gay (why do you all say that?). Please don’t cum at me for asking, just (bi)curious as to why I keep reading that in most of the comments.
@@lucasmurphy740 what is adam or the audience supposed to do about that? he needs to take withdrawal naps until he stops feeling the need to throw this never-ending millionaire pity party, or honestly just go back to drinking if not drinking is making him so butthurt. obv he could afford rehab but he's too much of a cool bushwick cosmopolitan to do that.
Listening to this in my basement and for the first 10 minutes I thought there was a mouse scurrying around. The comments however tell me this was just Adam’s nose breathing.
Shit isnt bad or good it’s your egotistical self that draws those conclusions. It’s just there. Having this same relationship with yourself is the way to overcome the constant perceived shittiness created in the mind of the depressed person. Egoism and self obsession cause suffering in the pursuit of meaning.
Nick is trying to speak to some deeper concern that he feels incapable of accessing emotions to a fundamental depth. As a gay man with PTSD I empathize and also recognize that, while I get what he's trying to do, Adam's Hallmark card wisdom is completely missing the point. Pretty pond.
@jimjim-hx6fd well put man. I completely agree here. As I get older I get weirder and more depressed at times ..no real idea why besides running heavily in my family along with alcoholism. Self pissed, I suppose. Understanding what the world truly is versus what the world is because of humanity, really takes me for some bad rides. Money, jobs, all this arbitrary human bullshit is likely on borrowed time. I guess one can dream. The pond really pulls me back to what I can appreciate on a much better level. All the other hogwash just ain't for me. Never was
The issue is that Nick is literally incapable of happiness due to a fucked up brain while Adam has a normal brain and can feel joy when doing simple things like petting his dog. They literally cannot perceive their realities.
@@markferraresi8789 yes but nick, much like everyone with similar temperament and upbringing to his, is a stubborn and incapable of changing on a fundamental level, thus is forced to live an existence of constant of suffering. Oh yeah, and I’m gay and have a little penis.
I always feel like Adam *might* actually have a good point but he is no way near articulate enough to communicate it. If Adam found the meaning of life through enlightenment he’d come back from the monastery with no hair and be like “Y’know, I don’t, like, I guess, it’s about a peaceful exchange of energy, and like, enjoying shit without it being gay, but sometimes being gay, if you *are* gay, not that this is about being gay, it’s about the ego” and Nick would just call him a slur.
the thing i would ask my best friend nick is, did he feel any different when he did that hurricane relief show in North Carolina. if he said yes to that question i would suggest first that i'm gay and second, that the primary means of securing a sense of fulfillment and potentially happiness in this sick world is to struggle against this broken and corrupt system by doing something that helps people and build a different and more beautiful world where collective liberation might eventually be possible, and then i would also tell him that i am gay
I know..sometimes i actually learn from these guys. I mean never adam..but stav and nick have provided some knowledge here and there..which i enjoy. Learning the bust way.
Nick needs to go through the motions of watching the mandalorian and then he might enjoy it. That's what life is really about. Even if he enjoys it for one second, that's one second he will have actually lived.
@CounterProductive damn nailed it. Crazy story about ol Dottie. Also where should I send the 6'×6' box of 6,500 Magnum condoms? You've won the official Gaemen 2024 prize for guessing the pond name correctly!
3:14 anyone else find it obnoxious when nick says im an idiot every other episode? he’s clearly smarter than adam and most people in comedy, when he calls himself an idiot i find it so annoying
I think it goes a little deeper. Smart people will call themselves dumb so whatever they say next can be taken with a grain of salt in case they’re wrong. Adds a bit of humility. I think he also genuinely thinks it would be smarter for him to not worry about this shit and simply enjoy life. He’s also 100% one of the smartest comics around. No denying that.
Nick and Adam haven’t figured out that in order to be successful in their industry they need to start pretending to be friends with Bert Kreischer and Tony hinchliffe
The first time I listened to this I thought the gay dude (Adam) was being annoying, but I actually think he’s right here. Nick wants to be stupid and enjoy a baby show. Adam says it’s fine to just be content watching it.
I’ll be an armchair psychologist real quick and make a lot of assumptions. I honestly think Nick thinks too much. If you obess over trying to be happy you’ll never be happy. Imagine using that approach to anything.For example you try to enjoy bowling and you obsessively think about how to enjoy bowling all the time. Even when bowling. Of course you will then not enjoy bowling. I feel if he finds out why he has this approach to life, then he will find acceptance. Because at the core the problem is the inability to accept life. Maybe he should try to challenge himself with not thinking about ways to be happy. And when that bad feeling creeps in just let it and do whatever you’re doing. Do that for a couple of months and see what happens. Could be completely wrong but this is what I would say in this conversation.
Also Adams inability to conceptualize what Nick is saying and responding with platitudes about death is so fucking straight, while I am gay. Maybe he has had this conversation with Nick too many times
@hl2cheaterking the human is really two entities, the mind thinking and the self observing the thinking. Strange but true.. monkey brain happens all day for me. I have to keep remembering that one does not need to listen to every single though that passes. Think of these thoughts as clouds passing, or birds chirping in the background. You can hear and see them but its absolutely not necessarily always listen and look at them. Very good practice that I often fail at. That little bastard is inside all of us, and he doesn't run the show. You do.
10:08 eh eh Is really rad, but tell me this isn’t how y’all are all the time? The more worried about someone else’s perception of your perceptions of things (solicit advice obviously different ) , the less likely you’ll want to go to a meeting if you’re having a meeting 24/7 x infinity , Take this w a grain of salt. I found the rooms @ age 23, remember too that trauma has a lot to do with why we use and drink, if the problem doesn’t go away after the first cliche or reminding yourself if catchphrases every 20 seconds, maybe need to look into that. But that is why step 4 inventory is so important , agueably less so than making yrs you get all anmenda made. Good luck, tell bob hi
Petting your dog for the sake of petting it makes no sense at all. You cant unlearn hard truths about life, to do something only a child that perceives itself as immortal could do. We apply meaning to everything because life is finite and mostly brutal and difficult. Nick cant seperate a healthy awareness of this with being neurotic and messed up by it. Watching the mandalorian IS coping, art itself is a cope, a rebellion against ugliness, impiety and the imperfect. Watching the mandalorian is tantamount to a religious experience. Providing comfort against the storm, momentary and fleeting, transforming the human condition. We arent equipped for visceral sobriety to all of lifes tragic truth 24/7 anyway, which itself is a delusion. Edit: Im gay
Adam’s huge nose whistling every time he breathes really adds to the entire experience.

I have to keep remembering that one does not need to listen to every single though that passes. Think of these thoughts as clouds passing, or birds chirping in the background. You can hear and see them but its absolutely not necessarily always listen and look at them. Very good practice that I often fail at. That little bastard is inside all of us, and he doesn't run the show. You do.
kind of a ruff one here. god bless jew adam
10:08 eh eh Is really rad, but tell me this isn’t how y’all are all the time? The more worried about someone else’s perception of your perceptions of things (solicit advice obviously different ) , the less likely you’ll want to go to a meeting if you’re having a meeting 24/7 x infinity , Take this w a grain of salt. I found the rooms @ age 23, remember too that trauma has a lot to do with why we use and drink, if the problem doesn’t go away after the first cliche or reminding yourself if catchphrases every 20 seconds, maybe need to look into that. But that is why step 4 inventory is so important , agueably less so than making yrs you get all anmenda made. Good luck, tell bob hi
This sounds like my inner monologue at 7pm in my moms basement.
Im gay.
6:19 The ducks leaving turned me gay
he was gay tony soprano?
An n-less universe 😮
Duality well played
one of those ducks sounds like a bug
The irony is that Nick's need to be excited about the Mandalorian is that it is itself a function of the ego.
This is the most annoying and insufferable I’ve ever heard Adam.
INFJ Adam v. ENTP Nick
my gay date with andre
This guy will never be happy and it’s such a shame
Petting your dog for the sake of petting it makes no sense at all. You cant unlearn hard truths about life, to do something only a child that perceives itself as immortal could do. We apply meaning to everything because life is finite and mostly brutal and difficult. Nick cant seperate a healthy awareness of this with being neurotic and messed up by it. Watching the mandalorian IS coping, art itself is a cope, a rebellion against ugliness, impiety and the imperfect. Watching the mandalorian is tantamount to a religious experience. Providing comfort against the storm, momentary and fleeting, transforming the human condition. We arent equipped for visceral sobriety to all of lifes tragic truth 24/7 anyway, which itself is a delusion.
Edit: Im gay
6:06Adam recommending a traumatic brain injury to enjoy Mandalorian.
I'm thinkin he's right for once ..wait adamn, nah.
33:42
