“Who was Robin Marks?”
“I Was.” 😂
“Ahhh, I got it”…..
(He didn’t get it)
😂😂
If he got intravenously he wouldn’t have got it haha. 😂
So Theo great man!
New fan here from Limerick Ireland.
"She had bust a nut tattood on her i felt like it was sexual harassment every time she walked past me" 😂
Theo was n lost for n a n moment
Love how Theo almost loses it at "Rayquwan, her son"
😭😭
I had to watch that a couple times..😅😅😅
Or is it Raekwon like from the wu tang
omg I loled
Might’ve been the last name I would’ve expected to hear 😂😂
"A nice cozy pile of wires"
😂 I read this as it was said priceless
That one was wild to me lmao. Do they check before plugging shit in??
Wtf is the cozy part about wires😂 u can tell hes a real carnie cozy pile of plastic
“Did you guys ever have beef with the livestock?” 🤣
Lol I caught that too
"Carnies, circus folk. Small hands. Smell like cabbage." - Austin powers.
Whoopdeedoo, but what does it all mean Basil?
@@DH33.0😂😂😂😂
Only two things frighten me and one is nuclear war.
Carnies really do have stubby fingers!
Riiiiggght
“ we would snip it and send it back in the wild”
“You serious?”
“No” 🤣🤣🤣
that comment about killed me lmao
It takes a real Carny to get something past Theo
👏🎉😂🎉👏
Priceless reaction.
Aww
This dude looks like a character from a Rob Zombie flick..
Rob zombie was Carney as kid lmao
Yoooo this 😂
This dude used to work for Fiesta amusements I remember seeing him alot in Massachusetts
Looks a little like Sid Haig
@@mattsiegel4516 yea rob zombies parents were carnies too
"Rayquan her son still works for me" i bout spit my drink across the room lmfao
Dude im dead same timing as he said it
This guy just looks like Theo in an alternate universe.
naw rogan
More like David Blaine 😂
He looks like Theo if Theo didn’t quit the dark arts
@@kevinhawthorne3809 you mean Dave Attell?
Theo with no morals. 😂🤣
"And who was Robin Marks" 😂😂
“I was”
😂😂😂
Theo became a Mark at that moment..
I like the way he acts like he gets it, but he doesn’t.
Theo’s a mark
"ahhh I got it"
No he didn't 😂
“Your brother’s an N word or whatever” WTF 😂😂😂
😂
Went right over this dude's head too 😂
😂😂😂
The guest doesn’t trust people however he has passion about what he does. That’s why he’s reserved. Good speaker
When he said there was a little bit of drugs use you know there was a LOT of drug use
A lot of meth.
“Making love huh?” “Well I wouldn’t call it love” “making almost love” 😂😂
This man said "A nice cozy pile of wires to curl up on."
The shit wooder
Theo looks like a high end carny…these two should have a show together 😂😂😂
My sister was wild since birth and did so many crazy things she could write books about each week, but got on hard drugs from 2011 to 2020. She joined a carnival in 2018 and went around America for a year. She has more stories from the year she was with the carnival than she has stories from HS graduation to joining the carnival. Its an entirely different world than the one we live in, much like hollywood. She's been clean for three years now!
I wish you and your sis all the best.
Twice, I thought Theo was gonna ask for an apprenticeship
I'd love to see Theo ask the questions at the presidential debate. LOL This was an awesome interview.
"so were crushing beers as fast as we can once we close to get as messed up and drunk as fast as we can"
"to go to sleep?"
LMFAOOOOO theo been some dark places bro
I been there lmao
Carnies don’t take care of the carnival, the carnival takes care of the carnies.
Wrong answer try again
Its a two way street they need each other a symbiosis.
Love the way theo talks about cocaine and starts gritting his teeth
Flashbacks
😂😂😂😂
@@BorisBidjanSaberi11it's real life man... I was bad on meth.. I got an OZ my first time, I always had plenty... it was bad.
Most people I know still miss it... my dad been sober almost 30 years, and if he smells ether, his mouth starts drooling..
If I start thinking about it, cant stop thinking about the taste, rolling the bowl in my fingers and getting a fat cloud....
Its tragic dude. We need real drug education- here it is.
Meth is fucking incredible. Eventually, if you dont take care of yourself, you'll go crazy
If you accidentally get meth, you're gonna love it and it'll seem like theres nothing to fear... it comes later.
I miss it every day. Nothing will ever be that good again. Its FUCKED.
But I also HATE being out of control, cant control my thoughts...
I'm better on LSD and shrooms than I am being awake for a week on meth lol
Tripping, I remind myself I'm high.
Meth, I feel extra focused. You cant convince me that I'm wrong. People were trying to kill me. Been sober over a year still pretty sure sum shit was goin on
Facts anytime he talks about cocaine his face starts to move And he gets a flashback. You could see it in his eyes.
😂😂😂
these interviews with "normal" people are more interesting than "celebrity rogan types" interviews
you snip it off, and send it back out into the wild "ARE YOU SERIOUS?" No. LOL that killed me
We need to get an honest writer to sit down with this guy and write a movie of his upbringing/life. It would be killer
Hell yeah !!!!!
That would be awesome!!!
"Raekwon works for me" Dude i totally missed that from the pod. Hillllllllarious
"Catch em, snip it off, let em go"
"Are you serious?!"
"No"
“Well the party nights were in the the gravitron because yeah they had the sound system in there already” I had to laugh at that for like a minute
Robin Marks 🤣
Carnies are the closest thing we have to the wasteland humans from Fallout, national treasures 😂
Isn't it kind of white trash gypsy? I dig it, just trying to sociologize
So the puke stains in the gravitron weren't all from kids then
I had a classmate that was working the tilt-a-whirl one day at the county fair. He was all proud of himself that the real tilt-a-whirl carny told him that he'd give him 50 bucks if he worked for him all day. Poor bastard sat out in the hot sun for 12 hours and when the carny came back, he gave him only 5 bucks.
Wow, they actually sleep inside the rides! Old school Simpsons had a bit about Fantastic Dan sleeping inside the carnival whack-a-mole game, and they were right the whole time!
If anyone is curious where the term marks come from, it's from the old school carnivals where Carneys would actually take chalk And put a "mark" on people so other carnies would know who they could get to play.
We use the term marks in professional wrestling also.
@@thereelmccoyfishing86 professional wrestling as we know it today started in carnivals.
Also what thieves and scammers did sometimes, same thing I guess.
"A couple men and a lizard .. that's like the bible" hahaha 😂😂😂
I tried being a carney in the 80s. I found out real quick that I wasn't near as wild and crazy as I had thought I was. 😅
"Yeah, last season, he was a pixie dust spreader on the tilt-o-whirl. He thinks that maybe next year, he'll be guessing people's weight or barking for the yak woman".
"Yea, she's' s ugly as sin, but a sweet gal. And a hell of a good cook."
I ❤ watching Theo. He has the most random and interesting ppl and conversations.
-ikr ... !-
"Nice cozy pileawires!"
It’s actually cool that Theo is sitting down with blue collar dudes. Some of the best and greatest stories I’ve ever heard came from the mouth of a warehouse worker. I think it’s a missed opportunity that podcasters don’t usually see.
"Really?? WOW...That seems illlllllegal.... That's crazy... in the eyes of God" 🤣🤣🤣
He needs a permanent gig this guy w theo
Hes already got a permanent gig bro
Back in the 80s if you pop three balloons you could get a cool Ozzy bark at the Moon theme mirror that you can snort all the coke off of. some of those roach clips with feathers on it,
Hell yeah brother. Good times. 😂
@@mystiquesquared I remember having to steer my old lady and the kids away from the booth that gave away baby rabbits! Lol! No not that one! let's go to the one that gives away almost dead goldfish!
LMAO! So true!
I still have my Def Leppard Hysteria mirror.
When you think of a "Carny" you think of a guy that looks EXACTLY like that. Do I lie?
He's the poster boy
This guy looks like Dave Attell if he never went bald.
Dude I got lost at a county fair and a Carnie pointed me to a cop. I ended up at lost and found 😂😂😂😂
Its wild how these guys just watch people slamming into mirrors all day. Tough to get your car crapped on irreversibly but you can see there is at least some advantages
The dunk tank guy on the boardwalk in Wildwood New Jersey when I was a kid was a savage. He would sit up there just smoking cigarettes and had this raspy voice and he would say anything.
Gosh, Paul, that brings back memories! lol 😎✌🙏
That flannel Theo is wearing is legit
Theo low key trying to find the Bust A Load carny, keeps bringing her up.
Man, it has actually always been a dream of mine to travel with a carnival and operate a ride or a game.
Well, good for you
It's not that glamorous especially when Half the women on the show look like him
Anybody else notice that he only has one woman story but he's been to 10000 carnivals. I don't think Carney's pick up many women
I get what you're saying but it's not the " Talking sex with Theo".
He literally said he was with that woman for 10 years... would you rather he cheat?
You needed this interview to come to that conclusion?
Moms tell their daughters to not fuck with the Carneys. So the first thing they want to do is fuck a Carney. Different girl and town most every week. Been a Jointy since '78.
Theo rules for interviewing these interesting folks
Theo met Theo.
This guy is straight out of Central Casting
Rayquan just had me busting a gut.
I have no idea how Theo kept that as cool as he did. He lost it a little, but controlled it well.
The Carny just carried on like nothing happened.
Lmfao. 😂
That’s love!!!! 😅😂🤣
This guy mbraces "Carney," even though it has a bad stigma. Also one of the nicest and realest guys out there
This is 100x cooler than I imagined
Interesting enough pro wrestling fans can also be referred to as marks.
Also interesting enough pro wrestling started on the carnival market
Pro wrestling has its roots in the carnival, hence the shared terms like “mark”, “plant”. The language of pro wrestling is “carny”. The typical structure is to insert “iz”in the middle of a word, so a mark would be a “mizark”. It enabled the early pro wrestlers to communicate in the ring without the marks catching on to what they were saying.
It is probably on TH-cam, but there was a live Saturday Night Main Event featuring Hogan and Randy Savage against Honky Tonk Man and the Hart Foundation. Savage takes a bump into Elizabeth. Hogan takes her back to the medical area backstage and is tending to her. They go to a commercial break and come back a few seconds earlier than Hogan expects, so he asks for the time cue in carny by pointing to his wrist and saying “tiz-ime” (carny for time) not realizing they were already back live.
“Are you ready to rock?”😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
this was literally the most entertaining thing i've seen on youtube all year. Congrats Theo and team for making this happen.
Theo’s side comments are always absolute 🔥 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Years ago I went to a huge fight with a bunch of drunk carnys were fighting and the boss showed up and made them start setting up drunk beat up and all
Was that in Wisconsin?
@@mtn.lion_bait no Nebraska
@@mtn.lion_bait no nebraska
1:45
There was zero hesitation in that man’s response
I was a "carnie" in the late 90's through the mid 2000's, and this brings back memories.
I hope THEO has this guy on a bunch ...Just discussing everyday shit and current events ...they have a vibe together
From what he describes, theres same Tales From The Crypt vibes going on when the carnival closes for the night lol
I used to work theme parks and was part of the concessions crew. Theme parks are sorta similar. Rides, concessions, games (I guess joints), clean up crew, and the people who played characters and walked around interacting with people, didn’t mix and had rivalries.
I started working in the video game industry and they used to call me a carny because I had also done theatre and was a cast member of Rocky Horror. All of my jobs were entertaining and exciting I suppose. I wasn’t a carny but my job experience felt carny-like to some people.
What lol how is dressing up in suspenders and black lipstick as a cast member of rocky horror have anything to do with ripping off the public on games you can't win lol crazy.... I think you've made this up, it makes no sense
@@joemanning90 It was just a joke that people made about me when I was first hired as a Game Master for a AAA game developer. Just a bit of fun because my previous work experience was theme parks and theatre. Some guys on my team called me a carny. That didn't make me a carny, they just thought of me as one. lol
This guy is funny as hell
I’ve never seen a lycanthrope in real life before now.
Loved this episode so much
I like how you have to work for the good stuff! And you do it so well.
Great episode
as a carnie, this is the first conversation that I've heard with Theo where I start to doubt some of his wild stories.. just based on his questions and his surprise attitude towards partying lol
Theo, say Rayqwaun, say it! 🤣🤣
I love this guy
This carny dude is a national treasure.
Mitch the carny needs to start a podcast.
I want to hear more from this dude, hes hilarious!
One of the best so far.
I’d totally have a beer with this dude. He seems cool as hell.
This dude is going to in heavy after this interview, He's spillin' the beans. The cat is out of the bag now...all the other carnies are going to be pissed @ him
As someone born unto two carnies, I really appreciate this interview. It also confirms many of the stories I was told growing up.
Is that the Carney Dave Atell?
That flat cap is sweet! Seriously
When someone rocks it well, they look nice
Nobody looks bad in a scally cap
@@BorisBidjanSaberi11almost no one can pull them off
Theo has the best guests!
Theo's Dad seems nice.
they are a special breed, have great stories too
I love his song "Under the Bridge"
Ive seen this man at bangor state fair before. Hes😅 been to northern Maine a whole bunch of times. Little Mitch is probably out there getting it, like all them young kids still. He probably the funniest to be around.
This was a good interview
This is gold!!!!
lol we've all wondered about them. good interview
I lived in Gibsonton FL and had friends who owned rides and concession stands, good times
The last 5 seconds of this clip is priceless 😂
Raekwon had him speechless!!
My step mum worked for fiesta shows for like 30 years with her mother.
Both had beards… wish I was joking
Awesome!!
Dude definitely looks like he works at a carnival 😂
Dude seems super chill
Dude is funny he be fun to hang with.
