BONUS Producer Cuts - Brooke Shields, Nick Youssef, The Many Days of Marc's Existence
Guest:Hey, Full Marin subscribers.
Guest:How are you?
Guest:It's Brendan, the producer of WTF.
Guest:And it's time for some more producer cuts.
Guest:If you don't know what these are, this is when I take the things that I unfortunately had to cut from the episodes and play them here for you.
Guest:This isn't cutting room floor material.
Guest:This isn't a gag reel.
Guest:These aren't mistakes.
Guest:These are things that I would have liked to have kept in the show, but for a certain reason, I took them out.
Guest:And now, because you subscribe to The Full Marin, I let you hear them.
Guest:And this week, we're going to be kind of Mark-heavy.
Guest:These are things that I had to take out of his monologues recently, and I figured you'd want to hear them.
Guest:There are times, I would say pretty regularly, when Mark has done a big thing.
Guest:And in this case, it was right after his special from Bleak to Dark, his HBO special,
Guest:When he's done, there's a kind of sometimes a malaise that sets in for him where he's like, what do I do next?
Guest:And I think we're kind of documenting that on the show.
Guest:But sometimes I feel like he's poking around and he doesn't really have an answer yet or he doesn't even know what it is that he's feeling.
Guest:And if you're just kind of tuning into the show for the first time, it might be a little confusing.
Guest:Why is this guy so upset?
Guest:What is his what is he concerned with?
Guest:I just figure you folks who are subscribing to this, you know Mark well, and you probably would appreciate hearing him kind of poke around at the dark for these three, four minutes, trying to figure out why is he not feeling fulfilled these days?
Guest:I assure you this has happened virtually any time he has come off of a big project or a...
Guest:movie set or a special like this one, he is trying to figure out what's next.
Guest:So I think this was from the Nick Youssef episode a couple of weeks ago.
Guest:It's just Mark trying to figure out what does he do next?
Marc:I'm ready to start a new conversation.
Marc:After talking to Laurie Anderson, I don't know if you listened to that on Monday,
Marc:There's a whole world of art out there that somehow, I don't know, it doesn't get dismissed or disregarded, but it doesn't happen in whatever the cultural mainstream is.
Marc:It happens in its own little pocket.
Marc:And it's important, but my bigger thought about it was,
Marc:was i don't remember if i talked about it with her is that what is the impact of it and i don't know why in my mind i believe that everything has to have this impact everything has to be sort of uh it has to be either tremendously important or it has to solve something or at least attempt to solve a big problem or or at least draw attention to some big problem it can't just be for its own sake
Marc:And I don't know what the next thing is.
Marc:And I am still... I'm in the process of fermenting.
Marc:Some of you know that.
Marc:It's not going to be my next thing.
Marc:There's very few things I get obsessed about that last.
Marc:I have a lot of the...
Marc:Kind of byproducts of obsession around, you know, I have a lot of records by one artist that I had to have just because I was into a song that they did and I had to buy all the records.
Marc:You know, I have those other things, but it's usually fleeting.
Marc:The entire vinyl obsession might be fleeting.
Marc:I might be done with that.
Marc:And now I've got a house full of fucking records.
Marc:And these aren't Hail Mary passes to somehow find meaning in life, really.
Marc:I don't see them as midlife adventures in any way.
Marc:I'm not going to look at fermenting as a midlife adventure.
Marc:And as I told you before...
Marc:I'm not going to go out and buy more ceramic Crocs to get a bunch of batches going because ultimately what I realized yesterday was that I'm making my second batch of kraut.
Marc:of straight-up sauerkraut.
Marc:Now, there's two ingredients in that.
Marc:There's cabbage and there's salt.
Marc:Now, the last kraut I made, I used red cabbage.
Marc:I made a sort of quick kraut.
Marc:It's only five days.
Marc:But that was what the recipe I was using called for.
Marc:Now, apparently, to make the real deal, you got to really let it, you got to let those microbes churn away for three weeks.
Marc:And I had this weird thing the other night.
Marc:First thing I realized is like, you know, in the best of worlds, I'm not eating a lot of kraut.
Marc:You know, I know it's good for you, but I've bought kraut and it'll be in the fridge for months.
Marc:I'll hit it every once in a while.
Marc:It's like kimchi.
Marc:I got a jar of kimchi in there.
Marc:I know it's supposed to be good for you, but I forget to eat it.
Marc:And then you don't really want it.
Marc:How often are you like, man, I need a heaping...
Marc:a heaping help and a kraut.
Marc:I know it's good for me though.
Marc:All this to say is I started thinking about what if this batch of kraut that I'm making comes out gross?
Marc:On some level, what do I have to lose?
Marc:It doesn't require anything of me.
Marc:It just sits there and I got to check it every once in a while.
Marc:I got to push it down, make sure it's bubbling and the microbes are churning away and
Marc:But if it's no good, all I lose is a head and a half of cabbage and three tablespoons of salt and some expectations.
Marc:Now, what about those expectations?
Marc:In the best case scenario, after three weeks, the best thing that can happen is you have really good sauerkraut.
Marc:How is that great?
Marc:I don't know.
Marc:Is that a major achievement?
Marc:I made this amazing sauerkraut.
Marc:I'm not trying to diminish it, but I don't know.
Marc:It kind of it was kind of a buzzkill.
Marc:I kind of buzzkilled myself.
Marc:It's like, wow, if this works perfectly, I'm going to have something that only a few people really enjoy.
Marc:One of them not being my girlfriend.
Guest:Okay, here's something from the episode that went up yesterday with Brooke Shields.
Guest:This was right as the mics were turned on.
Guest:In fact, you'll hear, I left it for you to hear just, it's like up cut.
Guest:Mark's talking already when the mics are on.
Guest:And the thing is, they were talking about euthanizing their pets.
Guest:You heard a little bit of this at the beginning of the talk, and I just felt like four and a half minutes or so of talk right from the get-go, cold, about the death of beloved pets was maybe a little too much in terms of starting this interview out.
Guest:And consider that a trigger warning right now in case these are things that are sensitive to you, you don't like hearing about putting down family pets—
Guest:That's what they're going to be talking about here.
Guest:So this is Mark and Brooke Shields from the very beginning of their talk.
Marc:With a bunch of dogs.
Marc:And my mother would usually handle it.
Guest:Yeah, my best friend from high school called her mother the Terminator.
Guest:Oh, really?
Guest:She's like, I don't think I could do it.
Guest:She's like, really?
Guest:If I'm Bertha?
Guest:She's like, I could.
Guest:My mom was always the Terminator.
Marc:Yeah.
Guest:And I was like, oh, God.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:I mean, my mother, I remember just...
Marc:I don't know if it was a callousness, but, like, you get so attached to these things.
Guest:But I think that the moms are always the ones that have to do the tough stuff.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:But I remember, like, one time I came home from college.
Marc:And...
Marc:And I kind of told my mother, I'm like, I'm not doing anything around the house.
Marc:I'm a grown-up now.
Guest:So I don't have to do anything.
Marc:Yeah, I'm not doing chores.
Marc:I'm not running your errands.
Guest:I like that that's what maturity meant to you.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:I'm not going to do anything.
Marc:I think it was more specifically, I'm not going to do anything for you.
Guest:Especially for you.
Marc:Literally the second day I'm home.
Marc:There's a note on the counter.
Marc:It says, please bring Rags to the vet and have him put to sleep.
Marc:This is a dog I grew up with.
Guest:Rags.
Guest:That was the name of one of my dad's dogs.
Marc:Oh, really?
Marc:And, you know, that was the one errand she was going to ask me to do.
Marc:Go kill the dog.
Guest:And did you have to do it?
Guest:No, I didn't do it.
Guest:That's her job.
Guest:Oh, God.
Guest:She's the killer of dogs.
Marc:Yeah, well, I was the killer of dogs last week, so that was... It's, you know, I have to believe that it's better to be there with them.
Guest:It is.
Guest:I mean, I'll never get it out of my, off my retina, you know, I'll never get it out of my life.
Guest:But having her in my lap...
Guest:Just, you know, just and then she started snoring at one point.
Guest:And yeah, there was something comforting about that.
Guest:And I thought she's not a vet said to me once, you know, they don't fear death.
Marc:Right.
Marc:So they're not freaking out.
Guest:You're freaking.
Guest:I'm freaking out.
Marc:They don't even know it's coming.
Guest:No, they just were sleepy.
Marc:Did they do like the two shots?
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:Yeah.
Marc:That was so it's like it's like it's like death row shit.
Marc:Like this one will just put them to sleep.
Guest:Yeah, this one will put them in twilight.
Guest:And don't touch her while it's happening because she'll become alert and she needs to really go in.
Guest:Of course, I could not stop petting the dog.
Guest:And my husband was getting mad.
Guest:He was like, stop petting the dog.
Marc:I'm like, fuck you.
Guest:And he's holding a paw.
Marc:There's drama.
Marc:There's drama around the deathbed of the dog.
Guest:Oh, God.
Guest:And then you watch their breathing.
Guest:And then all of a sudden she gives the, you know, and she goes, well, we're just overdosing.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:I'm like, that's not a good way to tell me that.
Guest:And then all of a sudden the little breathing stopped.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:And she looked at me and she said, she's gone.
Guest:And I went.
Guest:You threw up right there?
Guest:I know.
Guest:I ran upstairs and threw up.
Guest:Oh, my God.
Guest:I mean, I haven't felt this way with humans.
Guest:It's the most.
Marc:No, humans can go fuck themselves.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:I mean, animals, I'm just I can't handle it.
Marc:I stopped eating meat lately.
Guest:Yeah, I get that.
Marc:I mean, I didn't.
Marc:It wasn't even a principle thing.
Marc:It wasn't even really about animals initially, but I feel better for not doing it.
Guest:Yeah, absolutely do.
Marc:Do you know what I mean?
Marc:But, like, I get totally invested.
Marc:I can't watch shows where animals, it's very hard for me to watch.
Guest:To me, and there's, you know, anthropomorphism.
Guest:Yes.
Guest:I do that absolutely.
Guest:All the time.
Guest:All the time.
Guest:All day long with these cats.
Guest:All day long.
Guest:All day long.
Guest:I do it with cats.
Guest:My dog was a talker.
Guest:Oh, yeah.
Guest:And she was, all the time.
Guest:And I've got this one video, and I don't know, it just worked out perfectly.
Guest:And I said, do you love me?
Guest:And she went, uh-huh.
Yeah.
Guest:And I was like, oh, my God, she speaks.
Guest:She gets it, yeah.
Marc:A miracle dog.
Guest:Oh, anyway.
Marc:But, yeah, I did it with the cats.
Marc:I did it with my two, like, over, you know, a period of time.
Marc:Like, one was like 16.
Guest:Cats seem like they know more.
Yeah.
Marc:I guess they kind of do, but I'm not sure they do.
Marc:But they kind of seem smarter or else they just got us all fooled.
Marc:It's probably both.
Marc:But this one was it was really time to go, you know, and then and then like and then but then I had tragedy in my own life where, you know, my partner passed away.
Marc:And then and then I had this one cat who was sick.
Marc:And I'm like, no, you're going to have to hang on for a few months because I've had it with the dying.
Guest:Stop being selfish and stop doing the dying thing.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:And he lasted a few months.
Guest:And then I took him in and did it.
Guest:OK, this is from another show intro monologue.
Guest:And sometimes this happens.
Guest:You know, Mark, when he gets going on introducing the show, sometimes he just keeps going.
Guest:You know, when he's talking to the audience and saying, how's everybody doing out there?
Guest:Sometimes that tangent can really get on a roll.
Guest:And this was for Brooke Shields.
Guest:And I felt like, well, people kind of want to get to Brooke Shields, especially if they're coming to the episode for the first time, which happens a lot when it's a high profile guest.
Guest:So this I thought would be better for you to hear.
Guest:It's Mark just from the very beginning of the episode, greeting the listeners and kind of riffing it out from there.
Marc:How are you?
Marc:I'm sorry.
Marc:Is everything okay?
Marc:Are you doing all right?
Marc:How did that thing come out?
Marc:Did it come out okay?
Marc:I mean, sometimes the first time it doesn't work out as well as you want it to.
Marc:Did it?
Marc:Other times you lock in, man.
Marc:Sometimes that first time is the only time you get it right.
Marc:Sometimes that first time is so good, you spend a lifetime chasing it.
Marc:Yeah, I guess that's the nature of addiction or maybe perfection or maybe trying to grab something to hold on to some of that lightning in a bottle.
Marc:That only happens once and sometimes no one is there to witness it.
Marc:It's a sad thing, man, when you do capture lightning in a bottle and no one sees it or hears it or knows it happened but you and you can't quite capture it again.
Marc:That is the heartbreak of life.
Marc:How do you capture that lightning in a bottle and then figure out how to at least make some sort of effective reproduction of it or facsimile of it or recreate it enough to where people are like, wow, he's doing it.
Marc:Not really.
Marc:I mean, I wish I could share with you me really doing it, but I only got that lightning once, man.
Marc:But this is across the board shit, man.
Marc:It's like, it doesn't matter what is making a, making a steak.
Marc:playing some music, having sex, doing some comedy, making a movie, whatever, man.
Marc:Anything, that roll of the dice.
Marc:But that weird cosmic kind of, it's not a coincidence.
Marc:Somehow or another, there are moments where everything comes together and you're like, that was it.
Marc:That was fucking it.
Marc:And it just goes away.
Marc:It goes into the ether.
Marc:A lot of times that's happened to me on stage.
Marc:You know, it's surrounded by stuff that I can do over again and get a good effect.
Marc:But sometimes those moments are just sort of like goodbye.
Marc:Chef's kiss.
Marc:And you watch it fly away.
Marc:And maybe some people were there to witness it.
Marc:Other times, nobody.
Marc:Man, I remember a night in San Francisco where...
Marc:You ever had one of those nights, it was me and my buddy Jack, and it was years ago, it was before I got sober, where, you know, it just, everything syncs up.
Marc:The booze, the drugs, the conversation, and the entire evening.
Marc:The arc of it.
Marc:It's just, everything just works out.
Marc:You just, you do the drugs, and
Marc:You do the drinking.
Marc:You head out.
Marc:And the evening unfolds and everything just falls into the place.
Marc:Everything just falls in place.
Marc:And at the end of it, you're like, that was it, man.
Marc:It's not going to get better than that.
Marc:Well, what did you do?
Marc:I don't know.
Marc:I don't know.
Marc:We started with a pitcher of margaritas.
Marc:Then we wandered around.
Marc:We wandered into a club.
Marc:There was a band playing.
Marc:Don't know what band.
Marc:Don't know what song.
Marc:But it was just right on the money.
Marc:Then we ended up down at Tosca having a conversation over some more booze of some kind.
Marc:And then we ended up at some weird opening of some strip club type of thing that was chaotic and odd.
Marc:And then we were just walking.
Marc:Just walking down the street.
Marc:in downtown SF and was like, that was it, man.
Marc:We're never going to get that back again.
Marc:Whatever the fuck that was, nothing, nothing to hang, you know, a profound memory on other than like everything just worked out.
Marc:And yeah, you're looking for that, right?
Marc:Are you still looking for that?
Marc:Do you still look for that?
Marc:Anyway, how did it turn out?
Marc:How was that first time?
Marc:Okay.
Guest:Okay.
Guest:I mentioned Nick Youssef before.
Guest:Again, this was from the very beginning of the talk.
Guest:And it happens sometimes, especially with a person Mark knows.
Guest:A lot of times it happens with other comics.
Guest:where he's very familiar with the person and they have a very familiar seeming conversation right at the start.
Guest:And this was Mark and Nick kind of talking about restaurants they like, places they go to.
Guest:And for an outsider, it might just feel a little too alienating if this was the first thing you were going to hear.
Guest:But they're enjoying each other and they're having a good talk.
Guest:So I figured you should hear it.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:Am I allowed to take a photo of us?
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:Are you allowed to take a photo?
Guest:No, you're not allowed.
Marc:No pictures.
Guest:Yeah, some people are.
Marc:I don't, but I guess so.
Marc:I find that I don't know how anybody is really.
Marc:I think I know, but then I don't.
Marc:I'm either pleasantly surprised or horrified.
Guest:It's nice that people can still surprise us, though.
Marc:They always surprise me, people.
Marc:You can pull that in.
Marc:They always surprise me.
Marc:I'm never not surprised.
Marc:Whether it's, like, again, whether I'm horrified or pleasantly surprised.
Marc:Usually it's the latter.
Marc:Usually I'm like, oh, you're not so terrible.
Guest:I mean, yeah, that's good.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:Because, I mean, you think you get to an age where you're like, I've seen every type of person or heard every kind of thing.
Marc:Well, that's true, but you don't know who they are.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:You know what I mean?
Marc:Like, oh, I know what this guy is now.
Marc:I thought he was something else.
Marc:Yeah.
Yeah.
Guest:so like i haven't seen you in a few years yeah where did did you go to the indian place i did it's still there still good it's still there still good great yeah and i it i knew it would be because i was like i smelled the place when i went in and when i saw someone walking by with a plate i'm like it's still it like it has that glow yeah man and i took you there first you did yeah when you opened for me in san francisco yeah we went to chutney we did yeah it was right as you were starting this podcast
Marc:right yeah yeah because like i still go there if i go up there yeah i don't even know like yeah that place it's like the bread comes out and it's just you order at the counter and they just bring it up but it seems authentic right it is and they don't even like make you pay it first still i was like oh this is like old school like no go sit down you're fine i'm like there is the apocalypse is happening outside right outside
Guest:Yeah, and you guys are trusting of your customers.
Guest:It's beautiful.
Guest:Right outside of that, in that area.
Guest:And it ruined my stomach.
Guest:It did?
Guest:In the best way.
Guest:Oh, really?
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:That's my hallmark for good ethnic food.
Guest:Just any regional, heavy, awesome cuisine.
Guest:If you feel like you want to die at the end.
Marc:Yeah, that's good.
Marc:Because you couldn't stop.
Marc:Yeah, no.
Marc:I can't stop eating anything.
Marc:But I don't know.
Marc:My stomach's pretty tough.
Marc:I don't get too fucked up.
Guest:I get a little more nowadays.
Guest:When I was in my 20s, I could just do anything.
Guest:No kidding.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:In my 30s, it started being... Really?
Guest:I'm lactose intolerant all of a sudden.
Marc:You didn't know?
Guest:That's something that happened new?
Guest:Late 20s, I think.
Guest:Weird.
Guest:Yeah, yeah.
Marc:I'm trying to do it plant-based right now.
Marc:Okay.
Marc:I've been plant-based for almost a month, I think.
Guest:Is it easy?
Marc:It makes me feel bloated all the time.
Marc:Well, it's hard to figure out how to get protein.
Marc:But other than that, like, yeah, you got plenty of range.
Marc:There's plenty of things to eat, just not meat or dairy.
Marc:So you got to figure out.
Marc:So all of a sudden you're eating, like, for me, because I was so terrified of carbs.
Guest:Yeah.
Marc:You got to eat a lot of carbs.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:And you got to just adjust to that.
Marc:Because it doesn't make you feel good.
Guest:A lot of people say they gain weight when they go plant-based because all the carbs and you feel like you have to eat way more because you're not full.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:Yeah, I'm not finding that too much.
Guest:That's good.
Marc:But I don't know.
Marc:It's just that I'm trying to see if it makes me healthier.
Guest:Yeah.
Marc:I don't know.
Marc:I'm old.
Guest:Besides being bloated, does it make you feel better?
Guest:I don't think so.
Guest:Energy-wise?
Guest:Not yet.
Guest:They say that should happen.
Guest:I tried it for three months, like 10 years ago.
Guest:And?
Guest:Didn't make a difference.
Guest:I was just constantly hungry.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:And it was harder to- You shit better.
Marc:Yeah.
Marc:I think.
Guest:Yeah, you do.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:That felt better.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:And then I just kind of got bored of it because it wasn't hard.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:And then I'm like, well, it's not hard.
Guest:I don't feel better.
Guest:I'm going to go get a burger.
Guest:Yeah.
Guest:What am I doing?
Marc:I eat, and I'm trying to stay off sugar too.
Marc:I'm just trying to see if it affects my health.
Guest:Okay, the last thing here was cut from a monologue that was just already running too long.
Guest:And it's Mark talking more about the calculation of how many days he's been alive.
Guest:If you heard that episode, this was just kind of more of that.
Guest:And I had to snip it for time reasons.
Guest:Never like to do that, but I always want to keep the show on the right pace.
Guest:So here it is for you, Mark, and his many days of existence.
Marc:Wow.
Marc:21,738 days alive.
Marc:Today.
Marc:It's not a birthday.
Marc:It's just a day count.
Marc:Wow.
Marc:It's crazy what my feet have been through, what my hands have been through, what my brain has been through, what my dick has been through.
Marc:I mean, come on, my stomach, my intestines, my knees.
Marc:Jeez, man.
Marc:How much has fucking passed through me?
Marc:How many pairs of shoes have I gone through?
Marc:It's wild.
Marc:So I'm a vegan vegan.
Marc:but I'm not ideologically vegan necessarily.
Marc:Look, I've talked about this already, but I'm just, I want to say that I've been a vegan for over two months and I got to be honest with you.
Marc:I do not feel better.
Marc:I do not feel mentally better.
Marc:Really.
Marc:I don't feel physically better.
Marc:I might even feel physically worse in terms of kind of that bloaty feeling.
Um,
Marc:I'm doing it primarily as an experiment to see how much of my nearly pre-diabetic disposition and my borderline cholesterol is genetic.
Marc:So because if it's genetic, fuck it.
Marc:I'll just get back on the medicine and maybe enjoy some fish.
Marc:I don't miss meat.
Marc:I don't miss chicken.
Marc:But I feel like I'm eating a lot of stuff that it's just gassy.
Marc:And it's just I don't mind it.
Marc:But I'm like, I don't feel great.
Marc:All right.
Marc:I do feel better than you.
Marc:If you're not a vegan, I'm enjoying a sort of moral high ground around the fact that I'm not indulging in eating other species that I share the planet with.
Marc:I don't think about it on a daily basis, but I know that people look at me that way.
Marc:When I say I'm vegan, there's that moment of like, oh, you think you're better than me?
Marc:And I'm like...
Marc:Yeah, a little.
Marc:I mean, I'm not it's not a full ideological perspective.
Marc:I'm not doing it for that reason, but I'm enjoying that part of it.
Marc:I'm a little better than you, but I can't say that I feel great.
Marc:But you can't add that part.
Marc:You just got to stick in the zone of like, yeah, I'm better than most people for two reasons, because I'm Jewish and now I'm vegan.
Marc:That's like, you know, I'm chosen and I'm not killing.
Marc:Well, I'm not aiding and abetting.
Marc:The murder of animals industry.
Marc:But I don't really think about it that way.
Marc:I'm just curious to see what happens with my blood numbers.
Marc:But but all honesty, I don't feel any better.
Marc:And I'm not shitting on the lifestyle.
Marc:I just don't feel any better.
Marc:All right.
Marc:All right.
Marc:I'm just putting that out there.
Marc:I think it's the beginning, as they say in the recovery racket, that's your disease talking.
Marc:You've got some stinking thinking, man.
Marc:You're headed back to a steak.
Marc:You're headed back to a chicken.
Marc:You're headed back to a piece of fish.
Marc:You're headed back to an egg, man.
Marc:You're headed back.
Marc:I'm off the cigars, too.
Marc:I got kind of fucked up on nicotine, but it wasn't a long run.
Marc:But I tell you, man, something happened that I'm going to have to fight that fucker, too, again.
Marc:I tell you, man.
Marc:Over at the comedy store, there's this huge fucking old fucked up humidor that they have in the back.
Marc:And I don't know.
Marc:I don't know where it came from or why.
Marc:But at some point...
Marc:I guess somebody sends Bill Burr cigars.
Marc:He gets a lot of gift cigars.
Marc:Cigars just end up in that thing, like hundreds of them.
Marc:It's just this packed out, fucking disorganized, sometimes dried out humidor.
Marc:And the manager last night, when I was over there, the night before last, was like, Burr just dumped a bunch of cigars in there because he doesn't want to smoke them.
Marc:I'm like, oh, so Burr's going through that, too.
Marc:He's all fucked up on cigars trying to get off.
Marc:He says, you want to look what's in there?
Marc:I'm like, yeah, I'll take a look.
Marc:But I'm kind of off cigars.
Marc:And there were some fucking high-end fuckers in there, man.
Marc:Some high-end sticks.
